ooh! I recognised the face but didn't know he was an OB! Well Done!

BTW I saw that production of King Lear via NTLive - live broadcasts of National Theatre productions to cinemas worldwide - Derek Jacobi (another nominee) was fabulous - so much stamina & energy for a man of his age - surely a rival for NTN! :lol:

Off to see Frankenstein this week.

I want to see that too, but my daughter (who would usually go with me is in France this week, and working next week.

I will just have to go and see it live.

This thread reminds me of an email recently from some friends in Adelaide, who had recently been very impressed by the performance of an actor called Guy Masterson, and asked if I knew him. Sadly not, but does anyone else? He is an OB whose name was originally Mastroianni and would probably be c. 50 yrs old. He can be found here http://www.theatretoursinternational.co ... Actor.html
