Patsy is right that Mike has a body of work that is "still feeding young people" and that he returned theatre to "something very pure and clear." Peter is brilliant in this episode in prompting very important responses to questions. It's extraordinary that the cream of theatre are willing to give up their time to contribute to this channel.
Patsy is so articulate in describing the entire process of working with Mike. Illuminating and life affirming. The essence of what makes theatre. Thank you Peter for your tireless search and exploration of what working with Mike meant and still means.
Wonderful interview and commentary on Mike Alfreds. I will watch this again and again, as there was so much fascinating information. Thank you both for spending the time in order to share this with us.
I feel so grateful! This is a treasure. I’m French and though interested in English theatre (I even took some acting short courses in London), I must confess that Mike Alfreds was unknown to me. So I started watching the conversations between him and Peter Thomson and I’m learning so much. Now I understand why Patsy Rodenburg talks about his work with so much passion.

What’s Mike’s last name?

Ask Mike to stop by Cine El Rey in McAllen, TX to help cast his next movie.
Love Patsy!
