more like the CRAP production.
seriously it is known as the 2004 Harlos Production, which featured a more nihilistic approach.

that was the shittest crappest pathetic production i have ever seen. no one could act. they all had their backs to the stage and it was so goddamn boring i fell asleep. did anyone else fall asleep also? i hope the director knows how shit it was. people like her shouldnt direct. the actors couldnt even answer questions after it finished. pfffft.

Haha, when we were at this production, for fun, we all dressed up in suits. That was fun in itself, but at the end of the play, I waited back and asked the producer (Micheal Pigot I belive) for one of the sticks they used as sword. He got me one too, nice guy. So naturally I hit everyone with it every chance I got.

OH OH OH and an even BETTER story, during the fighting scene, Edgar farted. The choriographics where edmund picking him up and swinging him around. But as his arse was pointed at the crowd he let a small one out.

Oh and a drunk guy hit on me at maccas, but lets not go there.

One of the best excursion nights ever.

The Riverside place, that's the Skakespeare Globe Center production.

It was produced by & Matthew O’Sullivan (king Lear) and Diana Denley

That's an aristotelian reading.

Are we talking about the Edmund in those skin-tight leather pants? If so, Ew.
Tight leather pants!

And that wasn't Denley. Though I've been saying that in all my essays, because its Bondi and it's a girl director, haha... but if you read about the production of Denley's it's not the same as the one with leather-clad Edmund.
