| Description |
The combination of Richard Campion and raymond Boyce gives as diverting a show as ever, bt the actors, on the whole much less experienced than before, are much less decisive in the scheme of things. The result is a crippling disproportion between the elaborate mounting of the plasy and the expression given to its meaning through language and character… Tim Eliott's Romeo had some very good moments but, like Juliet, was something less than the figure in whose fateour minds and imaginations are involved. |
