Sam Wanamaker talks about the curtain of a stage being a barrier between the set and the audience. Wanaker says that with theater today, there are more theaters in the round and more thrusts of ramps built into the audience, so that the audience can feel they are a part of the production of the play.
Joyce Grenfell discusses her career (and includes portion of interview with Clancy Sigal, which starts around 39:08).
This lighthearted interview with actor, director and author Victor Spinetti is juxtaposed by the September 5, 1975 bombing of the London Hilton, which took place mere hours beforehand and "two blocks away," according to Studs. The two discuss Spinetti's Welsh background, acting and comedy with nervous energy against a backdrop of gunshots and bomb threats.
