User Review: 11Jan01: I'm an actor and thought the Globe was absolutely spiffing

User Review: 11Jan01: I thought the Globe was great but it didn't seem like the staff wanted me there and they were very rude

User Review: 11Jan01: Interesting production, using all the abilities of the Jacobean stage. Vanessa Redgrave, however, hindered the production with a por and unconvincing Prospero.
