Notes
- Reviews
- Rich, Frank. Romeo and Juliet in the Shakespeare Marathon’, New York Times, May 25 1988. Rich writes: ‘The actors, not all of them undistinguished, look as if they were being forced at gunpoint to go through the motions of performing the play so everyone can get on to the next title on the marathon checklist’.
