Who is David Reid?

All the reviews I have seen of the Old Vic production of The Duchess of Malfi have been in the four-to-five star range - not surprising for a company that consistently offers professional and entertaining theatre.

With one exception. What's On Stage gives the Old Vic five stars, but only one of the four comments below agrees with that number, with the others giving it two or three stars. Including an unknown David Reid, who says that in the Greenwich Playhouse, "Alice De Sousa was a much better duchess and the production there far more ingenious and bold". A pity he didn't add a comment about my own contribution to that production . . . ☺
