(Chances are I'll record it and leave it on the PVR for months, then stumble across it next year in the usually Shakespeare-light winter time.)<br /><br />As with the London transfer, of course, there's also annoyance that I didn't know before booking that there was a way of seeing it <b>without</b> the expense and time of a day trip to Stratford-upon-Avon, although in my case my preference would be to see it on stage anyway.<br /><br />But I'm guessing the RSC are gambling that the amount of people who see it on TV and have their appetite whet to see it live, will outweigh those who see it as a way of avoiding an expensive theatre trip.nick730https://www.blogger.com/profile/17790671846484940609noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8781475196023418414.post-6096137181521657032012-06-24T10:38:27.594+01:002012-06-24T10:38:27.594+01:00As the producer of the television film I'm cur...As the producer of the television film I'm curious why you are annoyed that the screen version is being broadcast during the stage run. The film is a distinct programme, mostly shot on location (albeit with the same cast), and I hope it offers the possibility of a rich comparison between stage and screen.<br /><br />Best wishes,<br /><br />John WyverJohn Wyverhttp://www.illuminationsmedia.co.uknoreply@blogger.com
