وصف الكتابCelebrating over forty years on stage and screen with a uniquely entertaining, eye-opening and enthralling memoir, the iconic actor best known for his role as Jim McDonald in Coronation Street, unveils a life as dramatic off-screen as his on-screen roles. In his own words, he recounts growing up in boarding school, his experience of the troubles in Northern Ireland, his time at drama school and his first acting roles &8211; as well many boisterous nights out and a short-lived attempt to run an illicit club night in 1980s East London. As Lawson&8217; s career unfolds, we encounter many fellow actors who are now household names, resulting in many hilarious anecdotes, behind-the-scenes pranks, cast disputes and the chaos of celebrity culture. He delves into his time in theatre, TV and film productions as well as his passions for horse racing and field sports. The book also provides compelling accounts of his private life, with details of his marriages and personal tragedies at the cost of fame.
عن المؤلفLawson’s career also includes performing with the Royal Shakespeare Company in Stratford, tread the boards in the National Theatre and Old Vic and work with a host of celebrated actors and directors in ground-breaking productions like Harry’s Game, Mike Leigh’s Four Days in July and alongside Gary Oldman in Alan Clarke’s The Firm. In charting his remarkable career, Charlie not only shines a light on the less glamorous side of the profession but also recounts a series of riotous and hilarious episodes, featuring a host of well-known partners-in-crime like Adrian Dunbar, Neil Morrissey and Martin Clunes, evoking images of 80s Britain where exuberant optimism clashed with IRA terrorist tensions. Charlie tells with unflinching honesty how infidelity wrecked one marriage, while living through his second-wife’s violent struggles with addiction pushed him to the brink of sanity. This memoir offers a raw, humorous, and insightful glimpse into the tumultuous life of a fearless actor.Twitter: @charlie_lawson1Instagram: @charliequintinlawson
