A visibly, palpably younger Henry removes that fatherly element.
When I last saw the show, it was in London in the summer of 2001* with Jonathan Pryce, 54 opposite Martine McCutcheon, 25. This is quite a different take.
*First preview in the West End, a steamy night in July and the theater a/c was barely functioning. That's another story. |
