Having just been to see Coriolanus (Shakespeare), we went through the list of Shakespeare plays we have seen. We've seven yet to see. But the most memorable productions were:
Merry Wives of Windsor. David Troughton (son of Patrick Troughton, one of the early Dr Who's)
Much Ado about Nothing. David Tennant and Catherine Tate.
The Winter's Tale. Kenneth Branagh and Judy Dench.
Titus Andronicus (a gore fest revenge play; blood and guts from beginning to end). David Troughton
Julius Caesar. Ben Wishaw.
Hamlet. Michael Sheen.
King Lear, Four notable productions. Frank Langhella (excellent), Ian McKellen (superb), Glenda Jackson (RIP, but was superb), and most recently (this year) Kenneth Branagh (surprisingly superb).
Macbeth. Patrick Stewart (the definitive play! For a treat watch this on You Tube), Sean Bean and Samantha Bond, Rory Kinnear and Anne-Marie Duff, and by far the worst one Christopher Eccleston. Have tickets to see David Tennant this autumn. As you might tell, we like this play!
Othello. Adrian Lester and Rory Kinnear.
