Faithfull Ophelia

The Times
The Times

Sir, The best Hamlet? (Times2, Aug 26, and letter, Aug 27). Nicol Williamson at The Roundhouse in 1969 was the first I saw on stage and, some 15 Hamlets later, remains probably the most electrifying of them all. But then he did have Marianne Faithfull as his Ophelia. Hard not to be electrified by her in 1969.
