  • Theatre Archive Project: Interview with Colin George

A Man for All Seasons; audiences; Birmingham Rep; children's theatre; Coventry Belgrade theatre; The Crucible Theatre, Sheffield; drama students; The Elizabethan Theatre Company; Albert Finney; Tyrone Guthrie; Peter Hall; Laurence Olivier; Look Back in Anger; Harold Pinter; The Playhouse Nottingham; The Playhouse, Sheffield; repertory; Maggie Smith; television. KH: This is an interview on the 21st of November with Colin George. Can I just confirm that I've got your permission to put this into the archive? CG: You have. KH: Brilliant, I'd just like to start by asking about how you began working in the theatre? CG: Yes, I began straight from Oxford. I'd been… I suppose inspired by Laurence Olivier principally and his film Henry V, but also I saw him as a boy, in his first Richard III, his first great performance, at the New Theatre, with Olivier, with Richardson and those great seasons they had, Hotspur, you know and so on and decided I'd go into the theatre. And my mother, God bless her, said, ‘Well, get a degree first darling, then you'll always have something to fall back on’, which proved absolutely right, because when I was middle aged - not middle aged, but getting on, three kids and that and no money having left Sheffield and all that - I went to Australia to set up a drama department and later worked for twelve years in Hong Kong, was head of acting at the drama… and that saved my life.

  • Orwell's Crystal Chandelier
    Orwell’s Crystal Chandelier – Steve Wadhams May – July 2010 Orwell’s Crystal Chandelier May – July 2010 Steve Wadhams I began the Preface to my book “Remembering Orwell” by noting “with some discomfort that I am an exact contemporary – thirty-nine years old in 1984 – of Winston Smith” and that “I am writing this book on April 4th, the very day on which Smith began his rebellion against Big Brother”. Winston Smith‟s job at the Ministry of Truth was to rewrite history. “Remembering Orwell” was an attempt to preserve it, by presenting more or less verbatim the thoughts and memories of 80 people who knew either George Orwell or Eric Blair – conversations I recorded for my five hour radio documentary; “George Orwell: A radio biography”, which aired across Canada and the USA, on January 1st 1984. Well, twenty five years later I‟m still alive and well and still a full time radio producer at the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation. However, most of the people who kindly agreed to be interviewed all those years ago have now passed on. But if I want to bring any one of them back to life and power and thought, restored to their 1983 selves all I have to do is pull out the box that‟s been sitting under my desk all this time, pick any one of the 60 or so cassette tapes which hold the original unedited conversations, put it into the machine and press „play‟. Of course I don't have a recording of Orwell himself because there aren't any, but I see his face every day.

  • Was Engaged As General Manager at the Shaw Festival. I Commenced Working on July 1, 1971, and Was There for Five Seasons
    TOM BURROWS was engaged as general manager at the Shaw Festival. I commenced working on July 1, 1971, and was there for five seasons. During that time we reactivated our fund-raising and worked for a year on the fund-raising, which had been stalled because of not having the approval of council on our site. Then we built the Festival Theatre, which opened on June 9, 1973. We came in within two to three percent of the original budgeted cost. We broke ground in April 1972 and were ready to open on June 9, 1973. It was built in 14 months, which was sort of an incredible accomplishment. The years have proven that it was the right theatre to build. There are a couple of things I could reveal after all these years that could have been improved on that building, but escaped us under the pressure. Without delving into all of it, the theatre had been completely designed and approved by R. J. (Ron) Thorn. The project architect, by the ^y, was Peter Smith, who is still active and is a marvellous theatre architect who has done some very good things. He was absolutely reliable, necessary and quite marvellous as a project architect. He and I attended every job-site meeting, at least once a week and often three or four times a week to get the theatre buih in that time and to make the necessary exchanges of one thing for another as we went through because it was such a time-sensitive operation. Obviously, the reason we were so concerned with completion date was that we had begun selling the season in the January prior to the opening in June.

  • I First Came to the Theatre in 1966 As an Actor and in 1967 I Was Appointed the Artistic Director
    PAXTON WHITEHEAD I first came to the theatre in 1966 as an actor and in 1967 I was appointed the artistic director. I stayed in that position through the season of 1977, which also included a short tour after the season into the spring of 1978. That was the period of my time there, with one exception: The 1975 season was not produced by me, it was produced by Tony van Bridge because I was on a sabbatical. I had been working in the United States for about four and a half years, mostly in the New York area, and about 19641 finished a production of Beyond the Fringe and discovered regional theatre. I was going around various places in the U.S. as a guest, appearing with the regional companies. One of those was the Manitoba Theatre Centre in Winnipeg, when I was hired up from New York to participate in Heartbreak House in the spring of 1965 along with a few other America-based actors to join a company there, in which I found Tony van Bridge and Martha Henry. I had a wonderful time and they asked me back the following fall to do Private Ear and Public Eye and The Importance of Being Earnest. In the meantime, in the interim after doing Heartbreak House in Winnipeg I had appeared in Cincinnati in Major Barbara, where I had been seen by Marigold Charlesworth, who at that time was running the Canadian Players. Coincidentally she asked me to come to Toronto to appear in their production of The Importance of Being Earnest.

  • Barry Morse Veteran Theatre and Television Actor on Both Sides of the Atlantic Who Won Fame in the Fugitive
    The Times (Corrected) London, England February 5, 2008 Barry Morse Veteran theatre and television actor on both sides of the Atlantic who won fame in The Fugitive Barry Morse From 1963 to 1967 as the implacable Lieutenant Gerard, Barry Morse relentlessly pursued David Janssen in The Fugitive, in an American television series that kept viewers on tenterhooks worldwide (he finally got his man.) Behind that television success lay training at RADA, where he had held the Leverhulme Scholarship, 1935-36; 200 roles from 1937 to 1941 in repertory companies at Croydon, Leeds, Bradford, Coventry, York, Sunderland, Newcastle and Harrogate; leading roles including Hamlet and Hippolytus on the radio; appearances in films including Thunder Rock (1942), When We Are Married (1943) and Mrs Fitzherbert (1947), and a variety of parts in the West End and on tour, including Ninian Fraser with Marie Tempest and A. E. Matthews in St John Ervine’s The First Mrs Fraser; Andrey in War and Peace; Lord Henry Wootton in The Picture of Dorian Gray; and Mephistopheles in Faust. He had also appeared in television productions at Alexandra Palace, an aberration for which A. E. Matthews had castigated him, saying that the box was a rich man’s toy: “It’ll be forgotten by Christmas.” In 1951 Morse moved to Canada, where his wife, the actress Sydney Sturgess, had family. Arriving in Montreal with a letter of introduction from Val Gielgud, head of BBC drama, he was soon in demand at the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation; and when CBC embraced television, Morse found himself playing a wide range of roles.

    FOR FURTHER STUDY: DIRECTED BY IDA LUPINO COLLECTION RESOURCES Rumored to have been born underneath a dining room table during a Zeppelin raid over London in World War I, by 1933, at sixteen years old, Ida Lupino arrived in Hollywood appearing in films such as Search for Beauty (1934), Ready for Love (1934) and Anything Goes (1936). By the 1940s, Lupino became known for starring roles in notable films including They Drive by Night (1940), High Sierra (1941) and The Man I Love (1946). At the end of the decade, the actress founded her own independent production company where she would write, produce and direct several films – an uncommon accomplishment for any actor of her generation, especially as one of the only women directors in the industry during this period. As a feature film director, Lupino frequently captured a common theme of post-World World II domestic alienation, exploring ordinary citizens struggling amid Ida Lupino was one of the few women working behind social issues such as unwanted pregnancy (Not the camera in both film and television during the 1940s Wanted, 1949), polio (Never Fear, 1949) and rape – 1970s.

  • President's Message Shaw Festival Cancels Remaining 2020 Performances of Charley's Aunt and Flush a LOT O'notl
    President’s Message (video) Shaw Festival Cancels Remaining 2020 Performances of Charley’s Aunt and Flush Performances of A Christmas Carol remain as scheduled “We know it looks insurmountable to return to the stage in 2020, but we at The Shaw are holding onto hope for a holiday season,” said Kimberley Rampersad, Associate Artistic Director. “Our hope is a candle – it may flicker, but it will not go out.” You can read the entire media release here. A LOT O’NOTL – Delivered! Thanks to Shaw Guild members who ordered one of the LOT O’ NOTL boxes, containing curated delicacies and home products, as part of the Shaw Guild’s program to support Queen Street merchants! The 50 boxes at $50 each were assembled and delivered on Friday, August 28, by a team of Guild volunteers, led by Emily Lukasik, Shaw Company actor, who proposed the initiative to the Guild a couple of months ago. Emily had heard of a similar program being done in a Toronto neighbouhood earlier this year, and thought it would be great for the Shaw and the Guild to run the program in support of Queen Street merchants in the same way. The team of Laurie Harley, Brenda Weafer, Gail Kendall, Cheryl Morris and Shaw actor Emily Lukasik (at top left) spent several hours one day scouting out and shopping for items for the boxes. It was difficult to make the final choices with so many great shops to choose from. The team will gather soon to discuss the possibility of putting together a holiday-themed package later in the year and perhaps extend the offer to local residents who are not Guild members.

  • Barry Morse, 89; Played Lt. Gerard on 'The Fugitive'
    Barry Morse, 89; played Lt. Gerard on 'The Fugitive' By Valerie J. Nelson, Los Angeles Times Staff Writer February 5, 2008 Barry Morse, an actor best known for portraying Lt. Philip Gerard, who relentlessly pursued David Janssen's Dr. Richard Kimble on the hit 1960s television series "The Fugitive," has died. He was 89. Morse, who maintained homes in England and Canada, died Saturday at University College Hospital in London, his son, actor Hayward Morse, told the Canadian Press news agency. A cause of death was not announced. In the 1963 series debut of "The Fugitive," Kimble is falsely accused of murdering his wife and escapes from Gerard. Kimble spends the next four years eluding the detective and hunting the one-armed man he believed was the real killer. The finale, broadcast Aug. 29, 1967, made TV history -- the ABC show was seen by more than 72% of viewers, a record that stood until "Dallas" eclipsed it 13 years later. In the climactic scene, Gerard shoots the one-armed man to save Kimble's life. Some viewers were so wrapped up in the melodramatic morality play that they had trouble distinguishing Morse the actor from his cop-as-villain character. "Elderly ladies bashed me across the head with their handbags, or some hulking great man would come up to me in a bar and say: 'Don't you understand? The guy's innocent!' It was an enormous compliment -- and quite dangerous," Morse told the London Daily Mail in 1993. He considered the part groundbreaking because the character was "carefully designed to be disliked.
