“…Rylance – who played at the Guthrie with Shakespeare’s Globe Theater touring productions in past years – gives a commanding and nuanced performance that, in 11 months time, will probably rank among the best in 2008. Though his outward appearance never changes, you can see how the years and the events of his life continue to weigh on his soul.” -Talkin’ Broadway, Minneapolis
