Theatre Lives: Michael Grandage
A new series of insightful conversations with legendary performers and theatre-makers about craft and process.
Michael Grandage explains, to Digital Theatre+’s Fiona Lindsay, why he dislikes the term ‘revival’, how an old play must become new for a company to ‘crack’ it, and talks of bringing current work into perspective through the past.
Michael discusses how, as a director, one begins working with actors in a rehearsal room, and ends collaborating with an audience, and describes how his privileging of the aesthetic is born of growing-up amidst the abstract art movement.
