Damian Cruden’s production for York Theatre Royal gets pretty much everything right. I worried that the current In the Round configuration might not be suitable for a re-creation of performers whom we saw through four-square cinema images or proscenium arch theatres (as I did in the early 1950s). However, with the aid of Liam Doona’s ingenious and flexible designs, all is well.
