Reviews Delayed for Ivanov

The weekly reviews update has been delayed a bit as Petrona, Petrona's daughter and I took in Kenneth Branagh and co performing Ivanov this afternoon. I enjoyed it hugely and found it more comprehensible than Thursday night's Love's Labour's Lost, though that had David Tennant :-) which compensated for when I couldn't understand or hear the dialogue.










There's a round-up of reviews of Ivanov on the BBC website. The same site also has a 9 minute interview with Kenneth Branagh (recorded before he was forced to withdraw from directing Hamlet). About half way in there's a bit about the forthcoming Wallander series and Henning Mankell plus a clip from the show (one of the actors featured is also in Ivanov).
