Criteria[edit]

Is this list for anyone who's done any course at RADA? Amo 23:48, 14 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

No! I've just gone through and taken out the reds/un linked. I think if you have a WP which has been deemed notable then you belong on this list if not you're out. RaseaC (talk) 17:13, 30 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Roger Llewellyn[edit]

I am disappointed not to be listed as an alumnum of RADA. I was accepted, with the offer of a scholarship ,in 1970.Leaving in 1970. On leaving I was awarded The Forbes Robertson Prize for Shakespeare. I have had a long and successful career, playing leading roles in major regional theatres, television and films. I was invited , twice, to join the RSC , without audition. I played Stratford and the Barbican, in significant roles.. with no understudying. I also played leading roles in The West End, and around London. In 1999, I formed my own production company, and toured the world...including Off West End and Off Broadway...for 15 years, playing 2 solo dramas about Sherlock Holmes, over 800 times- with truly exceptional reviews. Some theatres invited me back 4/5/6 times , due to the sellout success of the plays.

At 70, I am still being offered work; and devote a lot of time and effort to being a 'Buddy' to 'Finals Students' at RADA.

I would suggest you consider entering my name on the RADA alumni list of Wikipedia. Roger Llewellyn ( rogerllewellyn@onetel.com)

RADA Alumni[edit]

Hi

I graduated from RADA in 1975. This was with my equity name Amanda Leigh. I worked as a professional actress until 1982 when I married and moved to Wales. Following a divorce I returned to my maiden name Rackstraw. More recently I have taught drama and worked as a solo performer and storyteller. I am also a published poet and short story writer.

It would be good to be acknowledged on Wikipedia as a RADA alumni. I left in Dec 1975 with a diploma. As I also worked in theatre before I went to RADA; I had in total a 15 year career before marrying and moving to Wales.

I assume you have the means to check RADA Alumni. If not, I have the certificate; I could send a copy.

Many thanks.
