I will never forget the day I went to see Richard 11 at the
Courtyard. I arrived late and so was standing outside the theatre awaiting a gap, so that I and some others might be
quietly got to our seats, when the doors opened and Richard himself in the shape of Jonathan Slinger came out.
What a treat, the star of the show dressed in the splendid
Richard 11 costume came out and was within touching distance and walked by everyone.
Only at the RSC can one be so involved with Shakespeare.
I saw Chuk Iwuji in Henry V! not long after that. He gave such a sensitive performance, it nearly made me cry.
All the best to both of them in their new ventures.
