Sir Derek Jacobi is an icon of stage and screen, known for his work at the Royal National Theatre and as a BAFTA, Olivier, Emmy, Screen Guild and Tony Award winner. With peers such as Ian McKellen and Trevor Nunn, and as one of the founding members of the National Theatre, Derek is an enormous talent with Shakespeare running through his blood.
Six decades and so many favourites… such as ‘I, Claudius’, ‘Gladiator I’, ‘Gladiator II’, ‘Last Tango in Halifax’, ‘The Crown’, ‘The Day of the Jackal’, ‘Nanny McPhee’, ‘Gosford Park’, ‘The King’s Speech’ and much in between. His Shakespeare work is vast with notable performances in Hamlet and Othello to name a few. And not to forget, his audiobook work as the narrator for the BBC children’s series ‘In the Night Garden’. An incredible body of work.
Richard Clifford, actor and producer, starred in ‘Much Ado About Nothing’ (1993) and ‘Love’s Labour’s Lost’, directed by Kenneth Branagh, and has been a director at the Folger for 20 years to study the collection and look at the “Oxford Geneva” Bible.
With Richard in the driving seat for the evening, there will be an incredible wealth of insight, joy of Shakespeare and so much more as he is also Derek’s partner since the 1970’s.
