    I saw this in the globe in London, we were right before the stage in the pouring rain and my feet hurt from standing still for so long. But i would do it again! His performance, and everyone's was great, and any reference to the 'beautiful' weather he looked longer at us in our hooded coats and there were roars of laughter! He was so funny but respectfully despicable too!

      "Rain stopped play"? I guess it would be considered heresy to do for the Globe's audiences and players what was eventually done for Wimbledon's rain-plagued players and audiences - and end the pain of rain with a discreet little sliding roof. What? It would destroy the illusion of the new-ish Globe's superbly well-faked authenticity?
      Put the question of roofs, rain and authenticity to the vote every year - come rain or shine or hail-storms in mid-summer - let audiences decide!
      And give Oxfordians and Stratfordians something possibly even more divisive to duel over for another century or two.

    The Globe's concept is 'do it like it was' and it WAS a bit like Bollywood: a bit of everything for everyone. But it takes a real master like Rylance to switch gears so dexterously between pathos and comedy, solemnity and a capering wit. Everyone on stage has a brief to be serious artistically but also responsive and witty, and they never let a welcome laugh go by even in a solemn scene. You note that the laughs never impede the impact of the drama or the overall thrust of the scene. The actors love it when a spit in the face gets a gasp from the audience.

      I think Shakespeare was much funnier than traditional productions of the last hundred or so years would have us believe, even the tragedies. We have the Victorians to blame for all the melodramatic villainy of plays like Richard III. Rylance's far more subtle performance (compared with Olivier's for instance) seems to take account of the clinical fact that psychopaths are very good at appearing normal, plus the historical fact that the real Richard III was not a humpbacked limping monster who would frighten children, he was comparatively normal looking.

    I have a question. I know that back in Shakespeare's day, the men would play the women's parts. Is this the type of production where they would recreate that type of thing, because my question is that, and I do NOT mean any offense, but I want to know: is that a man playing Lady Anne? Thanks.

    I must be the only person in the world who thinks Mark Rylance's interpretations of Shakespeare are totally crap, so I suppose I may be wrong. I also, unlike Ryiance, believe Shakespeare wrote Shakespeare's plays and poetry so I may be right.

      Yep probably one of the few - I disagree with everything you’ve said as I love Rylance’s interpretation of the text, but I understand we all have different tastes - I may be one of the few who thinks Ian McKellen ‘overacts’ it, emphasising far too much, it just takes me out of it and I’m watching Ian McKellen rather than the character if that makes sense.

    No one is going to say this, but this is a bs Richard III. Mark Rylance is the greatest hack of our time. He trades complex intonation and comedy tricks for actual acting. Sorry, this is from a drama student from a top 10 UK drama school. This scene has been done way better at much smaller venues. This is bull.

      +156qaz To say "Mark Rylance is the greatest hack of our time" is just nonsense. Rylance is arguably one of the most accomplished and revered (especially by his peers) actors working today. Because you train, as an actor, at "one of the top 10 UK drama schools" - that does not make you an authority on 'playing Shakespeare'. All that proves is that you have some talent, and you will be marketable. Of course, you're entitled to your opinions; but to critisice one of the leading Shakespearean interpreters -strikes me as ignorant.
