This gets performed a lot, presumably because it's now on the English Literature curriculum so there's a bit of an audience guaranteed. I didn't read it at school so I took no baggage to it but I wonder if I found it a bit worthy and not much fun, which is an awful thing to say about something so important but that's certainly how I'd feel about it now if someone suggested I go and see it again. Perhaps I should read the book.
