ABSTRACT
In the last few years, I have had three wonderful new experiences, each one in
many ways far from the other two . . . and yet so close.
The first was in Stratford-upon-Avon in 1997. Cicely Berry and Adrian
Noble invited me to lead a workshop with the actors of the Royal Shakespeare
Company to investigate the possibilities of using the introspective techniques
of The Rainbow of Desire to create Shakespearian characters – in this case, those of
Hamlet.
