taught in classes, reprised world stages, award winning film,
at least 100 scholarly works

premier at National Theatre in England, initiated by positive
reviews at Edinburgh Fringe Festival

year long run at Alvin Theater on Broadway

David Leveaux

Daniel Radcliffe play Rosencrantz

always associated with role of Harry Potter

March 2017 - Variety magazine, compare 2017 production 
favorably to 2011 directed by Trevor Nunn, described as
lumbering 2 hour 45 minutes

Adam Sorkin speed (Sorkin productions, The West Wing)

David Benedict - effortless stillness

Susannah Clapp (The Observer) - amiable and bewildered

Helen Lewis (The New Statesman) - unlikely success, 
absurdist style wildly out of step with current theater trends

successful production owes more to how players work with
and against each other

Hamlet - sure of central being

Ros and Guil - question nature of mortal coil
