Few British actors of the stage and screen have attracted as much acclaim in recent years as Andrew Scott, both for the emotional depth of his performances and for the subtlety and nuance he brings to them. He made his screen debut at 17 in Cathal Black’s John McGahern adaptation, Korea. But it was his work in theatre over the subsequent decade, in productions raging from Brighton Beach Memoirs and Long Day’s Journey into Night to Conor McPherson’s Dublin Carol and a Laurence Olivier Award-winning performance in The Royal Court’s production of A Girl in a Car with a Man, that cemented his reputation.

Andrew Scott achieved fame on television as Jim Moriarty in Sherlock and the Priest in the second series of Fleabag, alongside key roles in the films Jimmy’s Hall, Pride and Spectre. While further acclaim came with his performance as Hamlet and all the characters in Vanya, he moved audiences with his stunning portrayal of a grief-stricken man in All of Us Strangers and charmed with his portrayal of Richard Rogers in Blue Moon. In Elsinore, he once again shows why he is one of our most beloved actors and will be attending this Screen Talk to discuss his career.
