He had his last play produced at the Hampstead late last year and he's currently in the film Three and Out - apart from that I haven't a clue!

He is playing Prospero in Cape Town and at the RSC in the opening months of 2009.

Anyone know any more about this? The only officially announced RSC 2009 work is the London season and a touring Othello.
Any info about Sher in The Tempest would be much appreciated.

The Tempest will play at the Courtyard Theatre in Stratford from Feb 14 to March 14, after first playing in Cape Town. Sher is confirmed as Prospero, and John Kani will be playing Caliban.

Oh

shame I really don't like The Tempest as a play.

When I was preparing to direct Richard III, I read and re-read The Year of the King countless times

the Greg and Tony show were guest speakers at this year's OUDS dinner (Oxford Uni Drama Society) and by all accounts were well-received.

I guess we are a few years off the Doran/Sher Lear - but maybe not that many

He's going to be in God on Trial on BBC 2 in September. It's about the Jews in Auschwitz who decide to put 'god on trail' while waiting to be gassed.

Danish, do you know what date in September this is being broadcast please? I had heard August, but there's no sign of it.
