on the large audience was
powerful. He does not act in the
conventional way buyt what he
does is truly marvelous drama.
This was a virtuoso performance
which remains in the imagina
tion long after we leave the
theater.”
Anderson has appeared in
Britain, France, South Africa,
Canada and theUnited States.
He has performed in twenty-
eight English cathedrals and
became only the second actor to
give a solo performance in the
Shakespeare Festival Theatre in
Stratford, Ontario. Anderson
also has appeared in New York's
Carnegie Hall as narrator of
Benjamin Britten's "Billy Budd.
Two of his biblical perfor
mances have been recorded on
records and cassettess, and
three of his original Gothic
macabre stories have been re
leased by Columbia records.
Anderson said that rather
than an actor, he is "more like
one of those itenerant jongleurs
of the Middle Ages who travel
led from place to place and by
their gifts spread their story-tel-
ling art which they were privi
leged to serve. . . the art of
moving, living word.”
