The RSC Complete Works Season 2006

Posted this on Globe postings as well!

All 37 plays (38 if you count Edward III) over the next 12 months at the RSC.

I am somehow (Sell my mother? Win the lottery? Rob a bank? Marry a rich man?) going to this - after all, having taken 15 years to have completed the canon, the temptation to try and complete it a second time in a year is just irresistable!

There are some real goodies in here, Judi Dench as "Merry Wives of Windsor (the musical??)", Ian McKellen as Lear, Patrick Steward as Prospero, John Kani as Claudius in a Janet-Suzman directed Hamlet, and (this is the one I wanted to ask you about), the Chicago Shakespeare Theatre's Henry IV. Has this opened in the US yet? What's it like?
