The Emmy-winning 'Succession' star steps into all 26 roles in Kip Williams' lauded Sydney Theatre Company production on London's West End, with rumored plans in the air for a Broadway run to follow.
, a fear of ever reaching such heights again, of even coming close to filling that professional hole, then she must now feel rather blessed — if also, every night, unbelievably exhausted.
It begins quite calmly. The stage is empty, save for a large, vertical screen that will dominate the action . Behind it, Snook enters with some of the crew who will be with her throughout the night — operating cameras, moving sets, handing her props, or assisting in her many costume changes. For now, she is dressed in black blouse and blue trousers — as the story’s narrator and looking, for the only time, like herself.
Once Dorian is seduced, Williams escalates his multilayered action. Sometimes Snook is acting directly to the audience, at others in front of a combination of cameras , her image sent live to one of the screens; sometimes these live images co-exist with pre-recorded ones, allowing multiple characters to be presented at once. All, including Hallward and Wotton, will be fully costumed and bewigged.
Williams’ approach allows Snook to utilize both camera and stage muscles: acting into the camera and exploring her face in clinging close-ups, at times wet with effort and emotion; but also using every inch of the stage, pursued by the camera and costume team, who swarm around her, nudging her physicality this way and that.
