[Sonia]

This was an interesting biography that I listened to as read by the author, which I think made it more interesting...

[Lynne · Rating 5 out of 5]

I am not a huge fan of autobiographies, but I adored this one. Partly, as I spent much of my youth at Nimrod Productions and my overwhelming passion for all thinks Shakespearean. But beyond that, this is well-written, engaging and unpretentious.

[Ruth Bonetti · Rating 4 out of 5]

Honest memoir, written with humility and humour by a truly great actor and theatrical trail blazer.
