Measure for Measure, Barbican, review: Excellent production draws thought-provoking parallels with Putin era

The abuse of power is an ever-topical theme, though one that is itself open to mistreatment by axe-grinding, opportunistic directors.  But in this stunning account of Measure for Measure " Declan Donnellan's stripped-back, modern-dress co-production between Cheek By Jowl and Moscow's Pushkin Theatre " the parallels with the Putin era never feel remotely forced.
