Stage Door Jonny Live: With Sir Simon Russell Beale & Sir Nicholas Hytner


Listen Later

Jonny rounds off the summer season in style: the first SDJ live show at Jermyn Street Theatre in the heart of London’s West End - and two masters to talk to. Sir Nick Hytner and Sir Simon Russell Beale tell Jonny about the two decades and nine plays of their collaboration. It’s a fascinating insight into the dynamics of one of the great director-actor partnerships of our times. Who is the lover and whom the beloved in this relationship? How does Simon know when Nick thinks it isn’t working? Nick’s thoughts on change in the theatre and in life, how he directs actors, Paul Scofield, Daniel Day-Lewis and much more.
