Who has seen both?

I've seen both, and they're great. Absolutely worth watching.

This makes me so happy. I only saw the Cumberbatch Creature!

Do NOT miss this!  Its stunning!  Saw both.  Would have been perfect for the Vivian Beaumont if it transferred.

I saw the NT Live with Jonny Lee as the Creature and it was a fantastic production. Very excited to be able to see the swap.

Warning: there is a major edit due to YouTube guidelines. It is a bit distracting without interrupting story too much but you will know you missed something. It does not, however, diminish the show. Miller was astounding as the Creature!

Watched the first half of the Benedict as creature so far and noticed a weird jarring edit. “Did I miss something?” I wondered. Can you provide a spoiler comment with what was missing?

Could it be a gruesome death or a penis?

They cut her brutal assault, rape and murder. I did not see it but apparently it is pretty shocking and it wouldn't pass youtube's content guidelines.
