My friend, who is not an actor, had an interesting point of view concerning the fuss over the delayed opening of COMPLICIT:

Neal was born in Birmingham but it was an accident that led him back to his home town to create the BSC. He was looking for a theatre in which to base his fledgling company and remembered that in 1989 he had been shown round The Old Rep Theatre by the theatre manager. He was lucky that he second visit coincided with the arrival of a new manager, Neil Johnston, (and not just because his name was Neil). Mr Johnston was looking for a way to enhance the activity of the Old Rep and the two men's ambitions coincided perfectly. Neal moved his company into the theatre and the BSC was formed. Since then he has run the BSC as an actor/manager, appearing in many of the company's shows. He has most recently performed in their productions of TWELFTH NIGHT and SKELLIG (performing in New York, March 2011).

I was lucky enough to see this before it was delayed. i have to say i wasn't that impressed. Richard Dreyfuss was ok. but really nothing great. david suche was wimply wonderful though.
However i found the plot overly complicated for no reason. it really really is heavy on american leagl jargon. and i came out thinking 'surely the plot can't be that simple i must have been confused'. but talking to the cast i had understood it. i just couldn't understand why a plot that is quite simple is so over done and over complicated in its execution. some moments are drawn out to irritating lengths. and mauch of the audience around me grumbled they were bored or simply didn't understand all the heavy legal jargon.
It had some good moments. but personally i was very disapointed but it. but as i said David Suche was sublime. and i would watch it again and again just for him.
I have to confess, having worked with Mr Dreyfuss in the past probably gave my visit added interest, so I'm not an impartial witness. But I still loved watching his performance!
