DRESSING ROOM, ROYAL COURT THEATRE LONDON - 1964


A rare dressing room shot of TP as he chats before a performance of Julius Caesar at the Royal Court in 1964.  Directed by Lindsay Anderson, he was Cassius to Ian Bannen's Brutus (originally cast as Nicol Williamson).  Other cast members included Daniel Massey, David Warner and Graham Crowden.  The production also marked the stage debut of a young Anthony Hopkins.




And just a couple of hours later, TP, as Cassius, realising that the game is up, runs on to a centurion's sword.
