Synopsis
The enduring popularity and success of Shakespeare is an international and cross-cultural phenomenon. The aim of the "Actors on Shakespeare" series is to provide an accessible, contemporary commentary to each of the plays via the top-class actors who have performed them. David Oyelowo was only two years out of acting school and playing minor parts at the RSC when he was approached to play the lead in "Henry VI". Here, he charts the journey he took as a tyro actor playing a tyro king. Written with an engaging honesty about the pitfalls and joys of getting and playing such a wonderful part, Oyelowo considers the art of the play.
