Jonathan Markwood is no stranger to the Royal Court Theatre. An actor, an artist of great repute and somebody who just seems to be able to play any role the Royal Court, or indeed any theatre, cares to put his way. Recently he has been part of the cast that bought the superb Lennon back for yet another successful run, and who has to be said had audiences enthralled with his scintillating timing of the Ring Master at the start of the second half, his spot on portrayal of George Martin and John and Cynthia Lennon’s art tutor. He also played alongside Michael Starke and Roy Brandon in the wonderfully entertaining Laurel and Hardy revival piece, The Sons Of The Desert.
