Macbeth with Sean Bean
 
Anyone seen the new production of Macbeth that's playing in London right now? We're thinking about getting tickets for December and would love to hear feedback. Thanks!

Have not seen it but would LOVE to see Mr Bean playing the role of Macbeth.<BR><BR>;°)

You can also see him several times a night between now and Christmas doing a TV ad for Marks and Spencer

The reviews have been very mixed. The pace of the production is very fast; the direction is apparently very dodgy.

All the reviews I've seen have been bad.

While many of the reviews have been negative, two of my favorite critics have been favorable:<BR>Sheridan Morley: &quot;A bitter, black and bloody triumph&quot;<BR>Richard Mallette: &quot;At last a Macbeth worthy of our times&quot;<BR>and even the London Times said &quot;brisk and fluent&quot;.<BR>These excerpts from a London Theatre website.<BR><BR>As always I'd take all reviews as just what they are -- one person's opinions.
