It is 1948 and the young and beautiful Marguerite Carter has lost her parents and survived a terrifying war, working for the SOE behind enemy lines. She returns to England to be one of the first women to receive a degree from the University of Cambridge. Now she pins back her unruly auburn curls, draws a pencil seam up her legs, ties the laces on her sensible black shoes, and sets out towards her future as an English teacher in a girls' grammar school. Outside the classroom Britain is changing fast, and Miss Carter finds herself caught up in social upheaval, swept in and out of love and forging deep, enduring friendships.

This is the inside story of the Royal Shakespeare Company - a running historical critique of a major national institution and its location within British culture, as related by a writer who is uniquely placed to tell the tale. It describes what happened to a radical theatrical vision and explores British society's inability to sustain that vision. Spanning four decades and four artistic directors, Inside the Royal Shakespeare Company is a multi-layered chronicle that traces the company's history, offers investigation into its working methods, its repertoire, its people and its politics, and considers what the future holds for this bastion of high culture now in crisis. Inside the Royal Shakespeare Company is compelling reading for anyone who wishes to explore behind the scenes and consider the changing role of theatre in modern cultural life. It offers a timely analysis of the fight for creative expression within any artistic or cultural organisation, and a vital document of our times.

Colin Who? is the autobiography of actor Colin Spaull who has been a stalwart of British stage and television since the 1950s. If you don't know the name, you'll know the face. Colin has rarely been off our TV screens since starring as a child actor in dramas such as Great Expectations and The Winslow Boy. When not on the small screen, he was either on the big one, playing alongside greats such as David Niven, or live on stage in playhouses around the UK.In Colin Who? he tells the story of the ups and downs, the happiness and heartbreak of the varied life he has led and the people he has met. The list of his acting credits reads like a catalogue of British soaps, dramas and sitcoms.Colin has appeared in both the original and the current Doctor Who series, and is one of only a handful of actors to have done so.With a Foreword by Frazer Hines, this is Colin Spaull's story.

David Ross has produced an extraordinary, eclectic and hilarious collection of thematically arranged Scottish insults, abuse and invective which has been wonderfully illustrated throughout by Rupert Besley. The best insults, according to the author, occupy an indefinite space between wit and abuse, containing elements of both to varying degree; they must always sting the victim, or else they are a failure. This book is full of rich and expressive examples of insult and invective for all occasions from all over Scotland. These have been passed down through the centuries or have emerged in modern times, proving that clever insults are infinitely more amusing and memorable than good jokes. And so, happy reading. If you don't like it, awa' an' bile yer heid!

Katie Mitchell: Beautiful Illogical Acts offers the first comprehensive study of Britain’s most internationally recognised, influential, and controversial theatre director. It examines Mitchell’s innovations in fourth-wall realism, opera, and Live Cinema across major British and European institutions, bringing three decades of practice vividly to life. Informed by first-hand rehearsal observations and in-depth conversations with the director and her collaborators, Fowler investigates the intense and immersive qualities of Mitchell’s distinctive theatrical realism and challenges mainstream narratives about realism as a defunct or inherently conservative genre. He explores Mitchell’s theatre—and its often polarised reception—to question familiar assumptions governing contemporary performance criticism, including common binaries that pit realism against radical experimentation, auteurs against texts, feminists against Naturalism, and Britain against Europe. By examining a career trajectory that intersects with huge cultural change, Fowler places Mitchell at the centre of urgent contemporary debates about cultural transformation and its genuinely inclusive potential. This is an essential book for those interested in Katie Mitchell, British theatre, directing, the transformative power of realism and feminism in contemporary theatre practice, and challenges to hierarchical distributions of power inside the mainstream.

Life often glares at us as an unanswered question. When we are frozen in some problems, the question of what’s next is one of the most frightening to many. Some will quickly get out of that stalemate. Some will shut themselves up in it. Certain diseases try to paralyze a person mentally and physically. When it tries to destroy us, then we bravely defeat it head-on, and our success there will be achieved. Similarly, the unexpected departure of loved ones makes us deeply saddened. This book introduces you to Sheila Hancock, who overcame when such issues raised a threatening question mark in her life and became active in her walk of life, still leading a happy life with her children and grandchildren at the peak of her old age. English actress and author Sheila Hancock was first married to actor Alec Ross. The curtain fell on their sixteen-year marriage with his death. Since then, Sheila and her next partner, John Thaw, have lived a family life of 28 years. The similarity between her two husbands is that they were both actors. Another similarity is that oesophageal cancer became the antagonist in both marriages. This publication also offers you information about those two familiar faces through the screen. In addition to all this, diseases were another enemy that plagued her. The afflictions such as cancer, dementia, and arthritis, disturbed her. This book gives readers a small idea about these discomforts. Surviving all the challenges that tried to weaken her, she surprised everyone at the age of 83 by starring in the adventurous film ‘Edie’. Thus, the world is eagerly awaiting the arrival of her biography with the title ‘Old Rage’ that Britain’s popular heroine Hancock reveals about her ninth decade.
