  • 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 .
