Tim Pigott-Smith discusses playing Leontes, in this ebook taken from

Shakespeare On Stage: Thirteen Leading Actors in Thirteen Key Roles.In each volume of the

Shakespeare On Stage series, a leading actor takes us behind the scenes, recreating in detail a memorable performance in one of Shakespeare's major roles. They discuss their character, working through the play scene by scene, with refreshing candour and in forensic detail. The result is a masterclass on playing the role, invaluable for other actors and directors, as well as students of Shakespeare – and fascinating for audiences of the play.

In this volume, Tim Pigott-Smith discusses playing Leontes in Sir Peter Hall's production of

The Winter's Tale at the National Theatre in 1988.

This interview, together with the others in the series (with actors such as Judi Dench, Ian McKellen and Patrick Stewart), is also available in the collection

Shakespeare On Stage: Thirteen Leading Actors on Thirteen Key Roles by Julian Curry, with a foreword by Trevor Nunn.
