The generations of Shakespeareans that became the way they are because of Clueless-era Paul Rudd's purple speedo-clad Orsino.

Und endlich, endlich ist auch alles in Ordnung mit der amerikanischen Seele. Wenigstens die Kleinganoven am Broadway sind freundlich und zuverlässig und auf ihr Wort ist Verlass.... Guys and Dolls ist natürlich eines der wunderbarsten und durchgängig am besten funktionierenden Musicals aller Zeiten und in Nicholas Hytners gigantischen, raumfüllenden und die Leute auf den Stehplätzen gnadenlos durch die Gegend scheuchenden Spektakelinszenierung macht es unbedingt großen Spaß, und deshalb wird es auch oft gespielt (Es ist jetzt die vierte Produktion, die wir in London sahen, seit wir das machen, nach der legendären im National Theatre mit Clarke Peters und Imelda Staunton, der glamourösen, schwarzweißen mit Ewan McGregor, sowie der etwas uninspirierten hier.). So schön wie hier war es noch kaum mal, und Marisha Wallace, die dafür die Oklahoma-Produktion verlassen hat (ist mehr Arbeit, macht aber wahrscheinlich auch mehr Spaß), muss die herrlichste Miss Adelaide jemals sein, einschließlich Jane Krakowski. Leider habe ich die Zweitbesetzung von Nicely-Nicely nicht notiert, und kriege es jetzt nicht mehr raus, aber er rockt das Boot natürlich auch.

The London Theatre Review: Bridge Theatre’s Guys & Dolls
By Ross
I feel a bit silly to admit this, but I’ve been recommending the immersive Guys & Dolls production at the Bridge Theatre in London ever since it first opened in March 2023, way before I even had a ticket for the show. This revival, made magnificent by director Nicholas Hytner (NT’s One Man, Two Guvnors) and set designer Bunny…

Jonny rounds off the summer season in style: the first SDJ live show at Jermyn Street Theatre in the heart of London’s West End - and two masters to talk to. Sir Nick Hytner and Sir Simon Russell Beale tell Jonny about the two decades and nine plays of their collaboration. It’s a fascinating insight into the dynamics of one of the great director-actor partnerships of our times. Who is the lover and whom the beloved in this relationship? How does Simon know when Nick thinks it isn’t working? Nick’s thoughts on change in the theatre and in life, how he directs actors, Paul Scofield, Daniel Day-Lewis and much more.
