Steven Berkoff - biography

“The great actors we had came from the actor-manager theaters.  Not only did they create a team, they were the generals working with the soldiers.”

“Writing is an antidote for loneliness.”

“A great opera house isn’t run by a director, but by a great administrator.”

“I’m very resistant to most forms of theater.”

“In London, nobody comments on what you wear - they think that’s not important to you or your state of well-being.”

“The mainstream is generally garbage.  Look at the heavily subsidized theaters.”
