Barry Sullivan's Hamlet

edit

In 1918 George Bernard Shaw wrote: "[T]he most successful Hamlet of my day was Barry Sullivan, an actor of superb physical vigour, who excelled in the impersonation of proud, noble and violent characters. All the sentimental Hamlets have been bores." He then added: "[Johnson] Forbes Robertson's gallant, alert Hamlet, thoughtful but not in the least sentimental, is THE Hamlet of to-day."
