| Adrian Noble directs Sir Anthony Sher as Edmund Kean, considered the greatest classical actor of the 19th century. Drawn loosely from life, Jean-Paul Sartre's play shows Kean as a pretender of the highest order with a private life like a public performance. He is a man with an insatiable appetite for a romantic adventure, an ego as big as a stage and an inability to rescue himself from jeopardy | | | |

Theatre Review | "Grimly unamusing...It is an evening of unalloyed displeasure." - The Evening Standard "If the play works at all, it is as a colourful period charade. But, by taking its ideas seriously, Noble simply exposes their banality." - The Guardian , "A ghastly evening of tedium and pretentiousness." - The Telegraph "Entertaining production." The Independent |
