Shakespeare As It Should Be Done

The Independent gives Propeller's double bill four stars, touching on the dual roles of Dominic Tighe, Dugald-Bruce-Lockhart and Richard Clothier, as well as Tony Bell's "hilarious" Dr. Pinch. Money quote:

...in both plays you get that extraordinary sense of a young audience saying to itself, "Well, maybe Shakespeare's OK after all." But there is no dumbing down or patronising; no, "This'll do you good, laddie, nice bit of verse coming up here." This is Shakespeare as it should be done – fast, sinuous and surprising.
