SPECIAL PREMIERE: Here’s another limited-time-offer treat from England’s National Theatre. On its website and on its own YouTube channel, for one week beginning this afternoon, National Theatre At Home presents yet another televised stage production from its archives. Today it’s Ralph Fiennes and Sophie Okodeno in Antony & Cleopatra. It’s directed by Simon Godwin, whose earlier TV work directing a play by William Shakespeare was shown just two weeks ago in this same showcase, when Tamsin Grieg starred in a marvelous production of Twelfth Night. That was a comedy. This one isn’t.

Tamsin Greig's monologue, alone, in the Twelfth Night was something I want people who think Shakespeare is dead to behold!
I realized last week that I really never knew the real story of Frankenstein.
Actually it was a simple parable on humanity.. and so well done
Now I want to see Cleopatra portrayed in her glory.
I hope they keep adding to the fare.
