Eight years ago I compiled four Top Ten lists of my favourite Shakespeare performances - lead & supporting male and lead & supporting female.
Eight years is a long time in theatre-going so to celebrate the greatest playwright ever, here is my updated list of favourite actors in key supporting roles; these are the ones that all new interpretations are judged against:
BEST SUPPORTING ACTOR (in alphabetical order):
MICHAEL BRYANT (Polonius - 1989)
RON COOK (Lear's Fool - 2010)
FINBAR LYNCH (Edmund - 1997)
DEREK NEWARK (Bottom - 1983)
ADRIAN SCARBOROUGH (Lear's Fool - 2014)
JACK SHEPHERD (Puck - 1983)
ANTONY SHER (Lear's Fool - 1983)
STANLEY TOWNSEND (Kent - 2014)
