The Moderate Soprano (Duke of York's)

The Best Man (Playhouse)

In addition to the happenings onstage, something else occurred when we attended The Moderate Soprano. I suddenly realised (whilst loitering in the theatre bar) that I was staring at Joshua Higgott - Horatio to Andrew Scott's Hamlet - also attending the performance. Of course, I acted like an idiot - wasting time debating whether to go up and gush; and then losing the opportunity.
Still - his performance (as well as both of the other Hamlets I'd seen recently - Scott and Essiedou) was still very much on my mind when we saw a very early-in-run Globe Hamlet between the two plays reviewed here. I'm composing a review - honest! - but (as per usual with this particular play) I have so MUCH to say that I shall probably have to do it in 2 parts. Even so, I may still beat The Critics; the Globe press night hasn't happened yet.
