| User ReviewRussell WOutstanding performance. Having this opportunity to see an NT offering is so cool! |
| User ReviewQi ZA good production relies on dialogues and conversations. |
| User ReviewAnwesh SThe best of West End theatre... It is fortunate for most of us that we can catch it on screen. If the magic exudes from the screen, you can imagine what it would be like when watched on stage. Would love to have a DVD of it. |
