TRANSCRIPT:
I prithee, who is greatest? Can you tell?
Sad tales befit my woe. I'll tell you one:
A salmon, as she swam unto the sea,
Met with a dogfish, who encounters her
With this rough language: 'Why art thou so bold
To mix thyself with our high state of floods,
Being no eminent courtier, but one
That for the calmest and fresh time o'th' year
Dost live in shallow rivers; rank'st thyself
With silly smelts and shrimps? And darest thou
Pass by Our Dogship without reverence?'
'Oh,' quoth the salmon, 'sister, be at peace.
Thank Jupiter we both have passed the net.
Our value never can be truly known
Till in the fisher's basket we be shown.
I'th' market, then, my price may be the higher,
Even when I am nearest to the cook and fire.'
So to great men the moral may be stretched:
‘Men oft are valued high, when they're most wretched.’

Very powerful. Will this production be screened? Or made available on line?
Lydia Wilson was absolutely incredible as the Duchess!
I wish Almeida would let ppl access their archive :( Really wish I could see the recording of this.
Btw Lydia Wilson is so absolutely brilliant in this clip, and Leo Bill’s subtle reaction very fine too.
How true! Great delivery, beautiful intensity.
At this point I lost count of how many times I've seen this
Her deliverance seemed like- caution with the danger here I can imagine the plot with just her deliverance 🦋 THIS is great ! Its a GEM to have people like you ! I WANT MORE OF THEM
Amazing preformance. There are those who are born actors, who can place themselves into the conscience of another, become a completely different person, it's a rare ability, and this woman has it.
Get this woman a role in hollywood ffs
I liked her from flack!
