The Winter's Tale (Royal Shakespeare Theatre, Stratford-Upon-Avon)

 | Probably the best WT I've ever seen, although be warned - unless you know the play very well you may have difficulty deciphering the American accents. The owner of the Stratford guest house where I stayed told me that every American guest who saw the show absolutely hated it, and on the night he saw it himself a large party of disgruntled Americans walked out at the interval because it wasn't "traditional Shakespeare"! Come on - we need MORE untraditional Shakespeare of this calibre. It's a perfect example of how an unfamiliar setting makes you look at the play in a new light. - USER: Whatsonstage.com | 31 Aug 02 |
