Although there are no photographs (I wish!) I have just acquired the following extremely early theatrical programmes which name check Christopher from his days as a student at the Central School of Speech and Drama: Measure For Measure "A performance given by students in their final year of training. The first performance was given at the Embassy Theatre on Wednesday, 19th March 1986." Angelo - Christopher Eccleston The Accrington Pals "The first performance of this production was given at the Embassy Theatre on 12th February 1986" Tom - Christopher Eccleston Moliere's Tartuffe In aid of The Malcom Sargent Cancer Fund for Children Valere - Christopher Eccleston And, no before you ask I didn't pay a lot for them. |

I always keep my fingers crossed that somewhere out there someone has a video of that performance of Woyzeck he did when he was at drama school. Dammit, I'd love to see him play that role. |

No kidding, Perf. I'd love to see how nuanced he could make Woyzeck's dilusions be. More companies should do that show. Seriously. That, and more Brecht. And more Artaud. |
