Todd
By C. J. ARNOLD
Collegian Staff Writer
In the-future it will be the country's
universities and colleges that will provide
theater entertainment for the community,
rather than public groups, according to a
• world-renowned Shakespearian actor.
"I find it most impressive that in both
Canada and the United States college
theaters are able to supply theater to the
public. It is the exact reverse in England,
where the public auditoriums supply the
entertainment," Scottish actor Richard
Todd said Saturday.
Todd was performing here in the Royal
Shakespeare Company's productions of
"The Hollow Crown," and "Pleasure and
Repentance."
Todd said he found the University
Auditorium most impressive.
"But," he added, "although it is an ex
citing concept for entertainment and the
acoustics are marvelous it is a _bit toil
large for straight theater.
"Such a large auditorium destroys the
moment of intimacy between you and the
audience. You see, contact between an ac
tor and his audience is most important."
Todd, who has been on tour for five
weeks and has visited 20 different cities,
said this was his first time touring with the
Royal Shakespeare Company.
"I performed with them once- a good
many years ago but this is the first time I
have performed in either 'The Hollow
Crown' or 'Pleasure and Repentance.' "
When asked which play he preferred
Todd chose "The Hollow Crown."
"One thing I particularly like in 'The
Hollow Crown' is that there is no star
thing. Everyone plays many different
characters, and I might add they all do
quite well. I find this type of role quite
challenging."

Asked why he didn't choose Pleasure
and Repentance' he said. "I hate the
characters I am playing. I think I have
some ritty, tough things to do. Also there
are one or two parts in it I don't par
ticularly care for.
"Yet," he added, "I feel that both direc
tors John Barton and Terry Hands have
done marvelously well working with each
actor and their scripts."
Todd said he had no real preference be
tween thq stage and film.
"I personally moved back to theater but
I still en. oy doing films. I particularly like
the techr iques of making films."
He said, "No matter what I am doing,
whether theater or movies, I must believe
in what I am doing, or I won't be able to do
it successfully."
He cited his portrayal of the Rev. Peter
Marshall in the film "A Man Called Peter"
as a character he believed in.
He said that during the rehearsal of the
film, "a marvelous atmosphere developed
in the entire studio. It gave people lots of
strength and faith. Even Marilyn Monroe
would just come out and watch us practice.
She used,to say it did something for her."
Todd said he had no favorite film.
"Rather I simply enjoy making them. I
also enjoy the people I am working with."
Having worked with Betty Davis in the
film, "The Virgin Queen," he said, "I
found Miss Davis to be a tremendous per
son to work with. She is a terrific woman
with a great talent s "
When asked if he felt that an American
actor could deliver Shakespeare as ef
fectively as an English born actor, he said
that it was "essential for the person to
develop a certain polished style that can
only be learned in England. "
