Well, Guilgud's evening of sonnets was great, and his recording of the
performance is still one of the best.

You will find a chapter on this in the book Shakespeare's Sonnets (not
an edition, as is sometimes assumed), by Paul Edmondson and Stanley
Wells, in the Oxford Shakespeare Topics series.

Will Sutton's performance of the whole sequence in the Rose a year or so
ago will stay with me forever.
David Crystal
[Editor's Note: William is a long-time member of SHAKSPER. I saw his
performance of the sonnets at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival (about six
years ago, I believe) when he was just beginning to tour with this
program. My review of that performance can be found in the archives.
Information about the show, including video and audio clips, as well as
information about how to book can be found at Will's website:
http://www.iloveshakespeare.com/. Stacy Keach, another long-time member
of SHAKSPER, has a terrific recording of the sonnets that I highly
recommend. (Among other achievements, Keach was the most memorable and
enjoyable Richard III I have ever had the privilege of seeing; I do not
usually use superlatives, but he would be my choice for my "best"
Richard III.) -Hardy]

Simon Callow has performed all of the sonnets together in a performance
at the National Theatre of Great Britain.
