Observations

  1. On 22nd April 2016 at 5:09 p.m., Waynos noted:

    This was my first ever experience of Shakespeare and of RSC. The play alternated with The Crucible and both were ‘in the round’ in the sports hall, with straw strewn all around. Alun Armstrong was amazing and it lit the flame for my love of theatre. Thank you for reminding me of the dates as the memory is hazy these days. WB
