Framed Print of This has been a very important week in the acting career of 21-year-old Simon
This has been a very important week in the acting career of 21-year-old Simon MacCorkindale. He has been making his first professional appearance - at the Belgrade Theatre in Terence Rattigans A Bequest to the Nation. In it he plays a sea captain called Blackwood. And the character is pretty apt, because Simon, the son of an air pilot, has done more travelling in his life than most of us care to think about. My parents have had three houses in different parts of the country in the past three years, and I don t think we have ever stopped in any place more than three years. So that makes sure I m used to travelling that this job necessitates, he said. Simon had been set on the idea of being an actor for a long time. It started at school when I began to take part in drama group productions. And of course my work suffered as a result. But that didn t worry me, and I began to form my own drama group during the summer holidays. My parents moved to Belgium and I formed a group at the NATO headquarters there. I was not involved in the services, so I had more time than anybody else, I ended up directing, producing and acting in the plays we did. When I left school, I went to drama school in London called Studio 68 of Theatre Arts. There he learnt a lot more about acting. They concentrated a lot on voice training and movement, and they did monthly productions, which really sharpened them up. Simon left there in September 1972 but struggled to break into the profession. In the end I did a TV commercial - but only to get my card. I hate commercials, and think they are immoral. I hate the idea of an actor standing there and pushing a product down the throats of the unsuspecting public. Particularly if the actor doesn t even like the product himself. But before he secured tho role at the Belgrade, Simon went through the period every actor fears - unemployment. It was a terrible time, he says. I was irritable and bad-tempered. I took a few part-t. © Mirrorpix
