About the Book

Born in New Zealand in 1938, Bruce Purchase won a scholarship to study acting in England. Based there ever since, his career has ranged from Shakespeare to Casualty, My Fair Lady to Doctor Who.

His memoir starts with Sir Laurence Olivier and breezes through colourful and candid anecdotes, always fascinating, often funny. In between times he discovers an unexpected gift for painting, and endures a personal crisis that splinters his life forever.

Bruce’s stories and his cast of characters — many stars of stage and screen, from Roman Polanski and Franco Zeffirelli to Princess Alexandra, Noel Coward, Richard Chamberlain and Sir Ian McKellen — provide an intimate insight into an actor’s life.
