Toby Belch (is unwell)
'An acting masterclass' Patrick Kealey
Theatre Nation
​
​
A sly, subversive comedy monologue by John Knowles
starring Sidney Kean ('Berberian Sound Studio - The Donmar Warehouse, Girl from the North Country, Coronation Street, Eastenders, The Bill, Silent Witness, Poirot, Frost).
The life of one of Shakepeare's better known, but still, minor characters.
​
Toby Belch, is un-well, the years of louche living, late nights and debauchery have taken there toll and now he faces his end with the knowledge that he is seen as a buffoon, a sot and a bully. He could have been Hamlet, he could have been Macbeth... Is this his epitaph?
