I was there for the opening night performance as well. Brilliant production. Marianne and Roland have different accents because they are from different classes in London. That's something most Americans, including this reviewer, don't get. The more posh accent of Marianne as the physicist and professor helps tell the story about the two character's diffences beautifully, when contrasted with the more relaxed "blue collar" accent of Roland, the beekeeper. Both actors do an extraordinary job.
