This may not be a subtle production but it is engaging and energetic. Strong performances by Martin Freeman, Gina McKee, and others carry the narrative at a lively pace. But the gore factor is straight out of London Dungeon, and Richard and Buckingham playing for laughs is just plain weird. Good fun but not for the purist. Until 27 September.
