'Great hope of British theatre'[edit]
While this is a well-sourced claim, it doesn't belong in an introduction. See for example, Michael Grandage:
'Michael Grandage CBE (born 2 May 1962) is a British theatre director and producer. He is currently Artistic Director of the Michael Grandage Company. From 2002 to 2012 he was Artistic Director of the Donmar Warehouse in London.'
or Vicky Featherstone:
'Vicky Featherstone (born 5 April 1967) is a theatre and artistic director. She has been artistic director of London's Royal Court Theatre since April 2013. Prior to that she was founding artistic director of the National Theatre of Scotland, and before that artistic director of the UK new writing touring theatre company Paines Plough. Her career has been characterised by significant involvement with new writing.'
If the phrase were more specific, it would feel applicable, but as is, the phrase is far too broad in the grand, long history of 'British theatre' as a subject. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Swing-time (talk • contribs) 05:42, 28 December 2017 (UTC)
