very people who make it. In Talking Theatre, Richard Eyre uses his
unrivalled access to leading theatre people to allow us to
eavesdrop on the stories behind many of the most important
productions and performances in the theatre of recent times: John
Gielgud * Peter Brook * Margaret 'Percy' Harris * Peter Hall * Ian
McKellen * Judi Dench * Trevor Nunn * Vanessa Redgrave * Fiona Shaw
* Liam Neeson * Stephen Rea * Stephen Sondheim * Arthur Laurents *
Arthur Miller * August Wilson * Jason Robards * Kim Hunter * Tony

John Johnston (Britain's last Theatre Censor) 'A rich, stimulating
treasure trove. Eyre's interviews exactly hit the spot: in
revealing themselves, his subjects also give the reader a panoramic
view of modern theatre' Michael Billington
