Samuel West - Equity elections, Shakespeare and Love, Love Letters in a Time of War

Sam is a candidate for the Council General List in the 2012 Equity elections.

The Stage's review of his episode of Shakespeare and Love highlighted his references to pop culture, "During a compelling 15 minutes, West spoke about the strangeness of love in Shakespeare... Throughout his entertaining analysis, the actor and director also cleverly used contemporary references [an example: comparing a Beyonce song to a speech from Romeo and Juliet]."

He portrays Ernest Hall and Alvar Liddells in Love Letters in a Time of War, a CD produced by English Serenata.
