Presented by Clive Conway


Sir Derek Jacobi in conversation with Richard Clifford


Sir Derek Jacobi ‘is an icon of Stage and Screen’ … known for his work at the Royal National Theatre, has a BAFTA, Olivier, Emmy, Screen Guild and Tony Award and to top it all off; Derek was given a Knighthood for his services to theatre by Queen Elizabeth II.  Not bad for a boy who grew up in Essex, the son of a corner shop owner and a secretary. From Leytonstone and the Leyton Players to ‘Hamlet’ at the Edinburgh Fringe and a scholarship to Cambridge.

 

With peers such as Ian McKellen and Trevor Nunn; Derek is a founding member of the National Theatre and was invited to be a member of the Birmingham Rep.  Derek is an enormous talent with Shakespeare running through his blood and having starred in almost every Shakespearian play, notably in ‘Hamlet’ and ‘Othello’, two of the greats.

Six decades and so many big screen favourites… ‘I, Claudius’, ‘Gladiator I’ and ‘Gladiator II’, ‘Last Tango in Halifax’, ‘The Crown’, ‘The Day of the Jackal’, ‘Nanny McPhee’, ‘Gosford Park’ and ‘The King’s Speech’ to mention just a few of his triumphs. And let’s not forget, his audio book work, which includes ‘The Night Garden’ for the BBC children's series another huge hit.  There is no doubt that Derek has an incredible body of work

.  

Richard Clifford is an actor and director. Richard has appeared in films such as ‘Much Ado About Nothing’, ‘Love’s Labour’s Lost’, ‘Frankenstein’ and ‘Murder on the Orient Express’ (all directed by Kenneth Branagh), ‘My Week With Marilyn’ and ‘Justice League’, as well as TV such as ‘The Crown’ and ‘It’s A Sin’. Theatre credits include ‘Amadeus’ at Chichester and ‘Henry V’ in the West End. He has directed productions at Washington’s Folger Shakespeare Theatre for over 20 years. With Richard in the driving seat for the evening, there will be incredible insight, joy of Shakespeare… and so much more, as he is also Derek’s partner.
