OPINION: Contemplating this past week’s big opening at The National – actress Tamsin Greig taking on the role of Malvolio in Twelfth Night – a strange, melancholy thought struck me.
Is this curtains for the male actor? Greig’s landing of this much-loved male comic role, which has been re-gendered to become Malvolia, represents one small step for this androgynous star, one giant leap for womankind.
