I love it! Mark Rylance, who is wowing audiences as Johnny 'Rooster' Byron in Jez Butterworth's award-winning Jerusalem in London's West End, will return to the Globe Theatre on the South Bank next year to play - wait for it! - the title role in Richard III and Lady Olivia in Twelfth Night.
I can't think of many actors who could pull this off or, indeed, who would be approached to do it at all - but I'm sure that he will be amazing in both productions. It will be his first engagement at the theatre, where he was Artistic Director, since 2005 - and I'm sure that tickets will sell very quickly for the shows.
