  • Robert Icke, Theatre Director: 'Oresteia? It's Quite Like the Sopranos'
    Robert Icke, theatre director: ‘Oresteia? It’s quite like The Sopranos’ The director of the Almeida’s acclaimed Oresteia on being inspired by Kenneth Branagh, Michael Grandage and Tony Soprano Susannah Clapp 23/8/2015 Robert Icke, 29, is one of the theatre’s most explosive talents. He was associate director of Headlong from 2010 to 2013, and is now the associate director of the Almeida. His productions include Mr Burns and 1984, which he co-adapted with Duncan Macmillan. His tremendous Oresteia has just transferred to the West End. Do you have a theatrical background? No, my mum’s a teacher and my dad’s a tax inspector. What turned you on to directing? It was seeing Kenneth Branagh as Richard III, directed by Michael Grandage at Sheffield. I was 14 and my dad dragged me away from my PlayStation. It was a proper Damascene conversion - really electric. There was no language barrier. I wrote to Michael Grandage and asked him how he did that stuff. He said: if you come and see me I’ll try to tell you. This was before I’d ever been near a proper rehearsal room. He gave me all this advice, which I scribbled down and have been living by ever since. Didn’t you direct at a theatre in Stockton-Tees while you were still at school? That’s where I learnt to do it. It was a very depressed area. You weren’t allowed to be boring: the audience there would just have left. I remember the first performance of A Midsummer Night’s Dream when Bottom came on in a donkey’s head with these amazing false teeth made by a local dentist.

  • HAMLET: PRESS RESPONSES Almeida & West End (2017) Shakespeare
    HAMLET: PRESS RESPONSES Almeida & West End (2017) Shakespeare www.roberticke.com FINANCIAL TIMES Ian Shuttleworth ★★★★★ I have been privileged to see several first-class Hamlets this century: Simon Russell Beale, Samuel West, David Tennant, Rory Kinnear, Maxine Peake, arguably Lars Eidinger. Andrew Scott is at least as outstanding as any of those, and right now I’m inclined to rank him in front. His Prince is almost always self-aware, but not self-understanding; on the contrary, his keynote is a kind of bemused wonder at goings-on both within and beyond his skin. The great soliloquies seem new-minted, every word a separate question. The playfulness at which Scott so excels (most notably as Moriarty in BBC-TV’s Sherlock) is here kept under a rigorously tight rein. I did not see this production when it opened at the Almeida a few months ago, but my impression is that neither Scott’s nor anyone else’s performance has been ramped up for a venue two and half times the size; the consequent occasional intelligibility problems are far outweighed by the sense of human scale. For this is the glory of Robert Icke’s production. It does not consist of a superlative Prince Hamlet, a clutch of fine supporting performances and a number of sharp directorial ideas stitched together into a plausible fabric; rather, it is whole and entire of itself. Angus Wright’s cool, disciplined Claudius, Juliet Stevenson’s besotted-then-horrified Gertrude, Jessica Brown Findlay’s Ophelia (at first at sea like Hamlet, finally psychologically shattered in a wheelchair), David Rintoul’s doubling of the Ghost and the Player King .

Almeida Theatre’s Hamlet Directed by Robert Icke Harold Pinter Theatre, London Performance date: July 28, 2017 Reviewed by EMER MCHUGH obert Icke’s production of Hamlet, starring the Irish actor Andrew Scott in the leading role, debuted at the Almeida Theatre in north RLondon in February 2017. The production then transferred to the Harold Pinter Theatre for an extended West End run throughout that subsequent summer; this review talks about the production during that latter run. This was Scott’s first major Shakespearean role: after all, Hamlet is usually a role for actors who have firmly established themselves, and who have a firmly established fanbase. Two years prior, Scott’s Sherlock co-star Benedict Cumberbatch played the role in Lyndsay Turner’s Barbican Centre production. While Scott treaded the London boards, Oscar Isaac treaded the Broadway boards in the same role in Sam Gold’s production that summer. Just as Scott finished in the role in September 2017, Tom Hiddleston debuted as Hamlet in Kenneth Branagh’s fundraiser for RADA.

  • OEDIPUS: PRESS RESPONSES ITA (2018), Edinburgh (2019) Sophocles in a New Adaptation Created by Robert Icke
    OEDIPUS: PRESS RESPONSES ITA (2018), Edinburgh (2019) Sophocles in a new adaptation created by Robert Icke www.roberticke.com EDFEST MAGAZINE Lyn Gardner ★★★★★ “I am me. I am me,” declares Oedipus. But the truth is that Oedipus—a compelling Hans Kesting— doesn’t know who he is in Robert Icke’s startlingly contemporary and razor-sharp version of Sophocles. It’s as if Icke has taken a knife to the original and excavated its glistening heart so we can see it in all its pumping glory. It starts with a film of Oedipus, a modern politician, on the verge of a great victory. He is going to clean up the country which is sick with corruption. The election result is not yet in, but there is a real sense that this man is the right one for the job, the chosen one. He is, but not in the way he thinks. His throwaway promise that he will investigate the death of the former ruler Laius will come back to haunt him before the night is over. I don’t think I have ever felt quite such a sickening sense of rising dread in the theatre. Over the next two hours as the on-stage digital clock ticks down Oedipus moves from saying “I am me” to not knowing who he is and becoming obsessed with knowing who he is. He journeys from a man who thinks he is at the start of something to a man who realises that he is at the endgame. As the evening progresses, the space—Oedipus’ campaign office (designer, Hildegard Bechtler)—is gradually dismantled around the characters.
