Anyone heard anything about the new ensembel that will be at Stratford from next year? We already know that Kathryn Hunter will be in it to play Cleopatra and (probably) the Fool but who else? My guess would be that Greg Hicks will be playing Leontes and Lear. They must have made some offers.

I must say, it cracks me up no end that I have sources. XD I've now heard from an array of sources that Clive Wood and Katy Stephens are signing up, so... considering that it's an array, I'd say there's a fairly good chance of that happening. Apparently, the rest of the company should know within the next month or so, and I - and one of my sources - hope that it may well include a few of the erstwhile Histories ensemble.
