Flashback - David Barry - Audio Book
Flashback - David Barry : David Barry's autobiography spans almost five decades of theatre, film and televisionexperience.As a 14 year old he toured Europe with Sir Laurence Olivier and Vivien Leigh in one of the most prestigious post-war theatre tours.
Vivien Leigh took a shine to him and he saw both sides of her close up. One minute she was sweetness and light, and the next she became a screaming harridan as she publicly berated Sir Laurence.
His is a story that covers everything from the pitfalls of working in live television to performing with hard drinking actors.
The autobiography is well-written and very entertaining. I wish that he will soon write a book about himself, his life, how it is to be an actor and to be sure that after one tour is finished another will come.Of all autobiographies that I read, for example about "sports legend" or of so called "stars", this one is the one you have been waiting for.
