Give them the Dickens: the celebrated Simon Callow-actor, author, director-brings to town his one-man London hit about the great Victorian novelist

Article Abstract:

Callow, resuscitating Charles Dickens in a one-man show, eschews the standard biographical format of such productions, preferring to intermingle characterizations of the author and his creations. Callow discusses the deep-rooted sorrow at the heart of Dickens's craft, his symbiotic attachment to his audience, and more.
