Miss Rabe is not as self-consciously feminine as Miss Blanchett, who deploys laughter—her own—to dramatise the alienation of the king from his court, and fondly adopts girlish poses during the deposition scene when Richard passes the crown to Bolingbroke. Shakespearean actors need to drill their vocal chords and Miss Blanchett seemed a little short of training, but she made a likeable, vulnerable, androgynous monarch. Given the extent of the cuts and transpositions, there could be no lingering over the development of character. The playful relationship between Prince Hal (Ewen Leslie) and Falstaff (John Gaden), for example, was speedily established by Hal fellating Falstaff. Sydney was not fazed.
