Roy Dotrice (Amadeus, The Best of Friends) stars in
Brief Lives
As the curtain lifted on the world premiere of BRIEF LIVES at Hampstead Theatre forty years ago, its global impact could not have been anticipated. Rave review after rave review greeted this fascinating and very funny story of an aging eccentric mulling over lawless 17th century society and the scandals of the figures heading it.
It took the theatrical world by storm and the winning acting and directing team, Roy Dotrice and Patrick Garland, took it around the world.
This sensational revival is already exciting the nation’s media, even before the curtain has risen again on acting legend Roy Dotrice, playing the lovable character of John Aubrey. A reclusive antiquarian Aubrey takes the audience on a nostalgic and hysterical journey through the 17th century and gives his unique take on days-gone-by with all the bits the history books missed out.
