Living legend James Earl Jones is best known as the voice actor for Darth Vader in the Star Wars franchise, as well as the murdered king in one of Shakespeare’s greatest film adaptations of Hamlet. While his voice is instantly recognisable and his film credits are extensive, Jones is also regarded as one of the world’s greatest stage actors. He deb...
Tom Hiddleston is one of those actors who seemingly exploded over the last ten-or-so years, and has never looked back. All things Loki aside, Hiddleston spent the first decade of his career working on stage; despite his meteoric rise, he still finds time to take on fascinating and complex theatre roles—including a lauded run as Hamlet in 2017 direc...
There are few actors working today with quite so much clout and respect as Viola Davis. In the 1990’s and 2000’s, she rose to the top of the theatre world, earning both an Obie and Tony Award within two years of each other. Her early film and television career was solid, although her breakout was 2008’s Doubt, for which she was nominated for Best S...
Ask an actor who their favourite stage performers are, and there’s a good chance they’ll mention Simon Russell Beale.

He spent his early career working with the Royal Shakespeare Company (RSC), where he ...

His stage credits have continued to accrue with consistency; t...
As with many of the actors on this list, Denzel Washington in theatre before transitioning, with great success, to film. His achievements in both fields are rivalled by very few; and yet Washington has distinguished himself by taking on a large number of stage roles in his later career. He played the role of Troy Maxson in Fences (an August Wilson ...
Like Sir Ian McKellen, Dame Judi Dench is less of an actor at this point in her life, and more of a cultural icon. Dench has long-standing professional relationships with the best theatres in England, including the Old Vic (where she made her professional debut in 1957), the RSC and the National Theatre. Her recent stage credits have dwindled, her ...
It’s hard to think the voice of Paddington could impress us any more, and yet here we are… Ben Whishaw is a RADA-trained actor, heavily involved with youth theatre at the start of his life. His 2004 portrayal of Hamlet at the Old Vic was widely acclaimed, and while his film career began to pick up steam around the same time, he has often returned t...
David Tennant is best known as the 10th Doctor of the long-running British television series Doctor Who. Before, during and after his much loved tenure as the titular Doctor, Tennant was crafting a reputable stage career that continues to this day. Tennant’s stage work is often associated with Shakespeare—perhaps due to his lauded portrayal of Haml...
Benedict Cumberbatch became known to the world as Sherlock Holmes in the 2010 series Sherlock. At the time, he seemed to come out of nowhere—this perfectly formed actor with strange affectations and a name to match. In reality, Cumberbatch had been delivering excellent performances as a stage and screen actor long before his supposed ‘overnight’ su...
