Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead

 

Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead, Cambridge Arts Theatre, 2006

Cast: Nicholas Rowe, James Wallace, James Faulkner, Ed Browning, Grant Gillespie, Richard Hansall, Edmund Kingsley, Charlie Roe, Leon Tanner, Ross Walton

Writer: Tom Stoppard
Director: Stephen Unwin

I haven't seen much of Tom Stoppard's work, probably because of an awful experience reading Jumpers for A level, but this is by far my favourite and I've seen it several times and have even read it a couple of times. I'd definitely see it again. I'm disappointed I don't remember this production. For a while I really liked English Touring Theatre - they did a great production of Angels in America which came to Cambridge and which I saw over two nights, and a play by Jonathan Harvey that I've never seen performed since. I still get their marketing emails and would happily go and see them again if they did anything that appealed.
