The first thing that strikes you about Annalise
Carter-Brown’s laudable production of The
Lion in Winter is that it comes in some classy packaging. Beautifully
constructed, realistic stonework on a simple revolving set, and cloaked in
atmospheric music and lighting. This is staging that
constantly pleases the eye. And even if they do not
always please the ear, the Rep cast consistently hold your interest. James
Goldman’s dramatic slice of distilled early Plantagenet history is well worth seeing. Roy Hall
Runs at the Rep until Saturday 25th January.
7.45pm. Tickets £9 - £13
