With an introduction by Sir Patrick Stewart. Tony Church, actor, director and teacher was a founder member of the Royal Shakespeare Company, head of drama at the Guildhall School of Music and Drama and Dean of the National Conservatory in Denver, Colorado. In a career spanning six decades, starting with the part of Grumpy in Snow White and culminating in a one-man show, he performed on a variety of stages worldwide: from the Vatican to a field in Greece, from Windsor Castle to a table top in California. This warm and entertaining memoir takes the reader on a lively journey through the world of twentieth century theatre. Concluding the book is a description by Geoffrey Church, Tony`s son, of the last ever performance on the old stage at the Shakespeare Theatre, Stratford-upon-Avon. Featuring a star-studded cast this was also Tony`s farewell to the stage.
