Shakespeare's Passions - One4Review

Bruce Morrison was born in Kenya of Scottish stock, educated in Edinburgh and after university went on to The Webber Douglas Academy of Dramatic Art.  He started his theatrical career with the Regent’s Park Shakespeare Company and has returned full circle by celebrating the 400th anniversary of the death of the Bard with his show "Shakespeare’s Passions". Traveling through all the plays sonnets and letters taking passion as a theme we are guided through a myriad of ages, emotions obsessions and passions. From such a variety of characters from all ages, sexes, human and ethereal showing the joy and pains of life from the pen of probably the best known author / playwright in the world. Bruce is a delight to behold and his use of some simple props enhance the performance, if such embellishments were strictly necessary. This is both a visual and audible pleasure ,his voice has a pleasant and varied range. To get the full benefit of the show some knowledge of the source material is advisable but definitely not a necessity. **** Reviewed by Sheila Kay Jack Thursday 3rd August 2006.
