Memory: Summer Memories

Attending so many marvellous productions and performances by famous actors!

It used to be quite an event during the summer – evening dress – opening the door to the ladies loo for famous actresses in all their exoticness, having famous people sitting on the next table in the restaurant. So many memories over the last 40 years.

Having Kathleen Turner (my fav actress) appear in Tallulah at CFT, has to be a great moment.

Memory: Henry Goodman (Actor)

1. A riveting performance with the most spine-tingling ending of any play.

The Resistible Rise of Arturo Ui, 2012

2. Henry Goodman was incredible, he was Arturo Ui in every aspect of his being but particularly his physical portrayal. A truly outstanding performance which made you laugh and feel shocked in equal measure.
