Charlotte Hampden (Actor in residence)
CHARLOTTE likes to say that it has hardly been a straight road to get from there to here. It started at RADA in London, then Lee Strasberg in New York, followed by a somewhat lengthy hiatus in Brazil. Then back to New York to operate an art gallery, and finally, 20 years ago, a return to the theatre. However, as they say, it’s all usable...
A few favorite roles include: Margaret Civil (A Perfect Ganesh); Henny (Bosoms and Neglect); Gunhild (John Gabriel Borkman), OOBR award; Amelia Tilford (The Children’s Hour); Sara (The Sister Rosensweig); Mrs Smith (The Bald Soprano); Mother (Blood Wedding); Queen Margaret (Richard III ); Lettice (Lettice and Lovage); Linda (Death of a Salesman); Agnes (A Delicate Balance); would that there were more TV, film and voiceover credits. Lovely to be working with Me & She and Many Tracks. Yes, Diane, it’s cumulative…..
