well I saw it on Friday evening! it was good, but I wouldn'y say spectacular; first of all and purely an incidental point but the seating in the Globe is very uncomfortable – just wooden benches with no backs – and whilst this might be authnetic, it actually to mind mind detracts for enjoying the play, because I was spending all my time trying to find a comfortable posture. Amanda Raison is good but she isn't great, she isn't magical, but she is amusing. The crowd seemed overhoyed that she pulled her won head out of a bag; I've never got this sort of humour, it makes me think whether in five hundred year's time people will be reduced to side-splitting laughter when the ghost of a jewish person recounts how they were gassed in Nazi Germany. Weird.

Lady Rochford has a big part, indeed she's Anne's best friend, which I found a bit hard to swallow; George is mentioned by he and Thomas Boleyn don't even appear. As to Anne being the Protestant queen, one woman actually shouted out, 'Rubbish!' but the person behind said, 'the fact of the matter is, none of us were there, and we'll likely never know' – which is true. You will never be one hundred and ten per cent sure that Anne DIDN'T think she was a witch, or really did have countless lovers, or that she alonge spearheaded the new religion. History is written by the winners, and at the time she wasn't one of them.
