It's great to see it presented with masks on all the characters, as it would've been presented in its original theatrical presentation. However I cannot deny that this film is absolutely marred with examples about why filming theatrical productions is bad idea. The volume levels of the actors is obviously too loud, making equalization a nightmare for the sound guy I'm sure. And the cinematography is just amateurish. Still, it's an experience that gets across the play.
