More sinned against than sinning

...Let copulation thrive

...King Lear, Shakespeare's Globe, Bankside

...'The theme of homelessness is central to the tragedy and the production heightens our sense of this with a framing device. The cast members first appear as a group of squatters in anoraks and beanies having to beat and rip their way into a venue that has been boarded up and draped in tarpaulins, with a "Keep Out" sign scrawled across the chipboard. Only by ramming entrances with a trolley and tearing down the sheeting can this crew create a space for their inset performance of the play.'  Paul Taylor, Independent
