I have not yet seen this production, but it never occurred to me that anyone would ever think of the play itself as cold and dispassionate, and I don't believe I've ever heard that opinion expressed until I read it here. I think the play has its flaws, most notably its increasing focus on Treves as it goes along, but it's not remotely cold or dispassionate.
