In February, I'll be performing a selection of poems by Rudyard Kipling, Wilfred Owen and Robert Lowell and I'll read prose by J B Priestley. The show explores the poignant experience of human beings in war.
The first third of the show will be Kipling. His poems take me back to Bill Gaskill (1930-2018), the theatre director at the National Theatre and the Royal Court. I was in eight plays directed by Bill, including a part as Len in by Edward Bond
