Yes - I thought same. Didn't state the obvious, so much left unsaid. And nobody grandstanding. One of my Christmas presents was DVD of The Shooting Party, so this sort of thing is clearly my bag atm.

Did you see that extraordinary set footage of Cynthia Erivo being thrown around on a wire and singing live like a some sort of valkyrie/angel/fury? It was breathtaking.

It's maddening. Bought a DVD player last month out of sheer frustration.

So depressing how it's morphing into Poptabulous Classix
