Marvellous cast revels in The Bard
Daily Express
|February 20, 2025
TAKE Agent Carter of S.H.I.E.L.D and Loki the God of Mischief from the Marvel Comics and put them together in a Shakespearean comedy and you're bound to make waves.
The moment Tom Hiddleston's Benedick clasps Hayley Atwell's Beatrice, there is a roar of approval from the audience.
Director Jamie Lloyd's second production of his Shakespeare season is an unalloyed delight. With pink confetti raining down throughout, especially during 80s and 90s songs blasted to keep adrenaline peaking, this is a big-hearted, delirious and audiencefriendly show: Party Hard With The Bard! Confirmed bachelor Benedick returns from the wars a hero to find his ex-lover Beatrice prepared to continue their own war of wits.
