  • Patrick Stewart discusses his passion for Shakespeare, the physicality of acting, the parts he’d still love to play, and how ignoring the advice of a trusted friend led him to the role in Star Trek as Captain Jean-Luc Picard, with which he would become a global household name. There are heartwarming stories of interactions with fellow stars, from his debut film role in a scene with one of his acting heroes, Rod Steiger, to a first meeting with a global superstar that brought with it an unexpected level of personal pressure.
    ‘I didn’t realise until tonight we were in the Royal Festival Hall, I thought we were in a little side place,’ says Stewart early in this talk, highlighting the humility of a man who has never forgotten his roots in working class West Yorkshire. He discusses those early years with Ahmed, and the impact two people in particular had in steering him along the path to his six decade career as an actor on stage and screen; his schoolteacher Cecil Dormand and his first acting teacher Ruth Wynn Owen.
    Spend an hour in the company of Sir Patrick Stewart as he discusses his life and career with Samira Ahmed at our London Literature Festival, to launch his long-awaited memoir, Making It So.

    What's your favourite Patrick Stewart role? Jean-Luc Picard or Charles Xavier? Macbeth or Claudius? 🎭

    This gentleman is 83 years old, and yet looks and has the energy of someone 30 years younger.

    I was so lucky to be in this audience. Even luckier to get my question answered. I’ll never forget this.

    I would love to see Sir Patrick Stewart as King Lear . The scenes on the heath in the storm would be mind blowing

    Thank you for recording this so that those of us who couldn't go and see an interview in person could experience one. I loved "Making It So", enjoyed a read and listen. It started me enjoying audio books, in fact. Thank you again!

    wished they had touched more on Sir Patrick and David Warners relationship in acting and learning and how it came full circle on Star trek with the Torture scenes they played together and how strongly that was recieved and portrayed

    I wish my father would tell his story! But my uncle was the one to tell his own story. The first to win on the IOM tt 1987 😊

    Patrick Stewart will always be the CIA director from the American Dad cartoon to me.

    In Shakespeareian times , all roles were played by men, even women parts . There were no actresses back then, so to see Sir Patrick Stewart play a womans role is not as unusual or politically correct as it sounds .
