Oh, Edward II! I love that play. And McKellen, for that matter. I wish I could have seen him play Edward II -- and my particular favorite, Richard II -- back in the seventies, never mind that it was a decade before I was born.
I seem to recall that the Stratford Festival in Ontario is going to stage The Duchess of Malfi next year; I heard it from someone who didn't seem excited about this prospect, but I find that to be cause for much glee. It's a marvelous play.
