I first saw Richard Burton in person when he starred in "Equus" on Broadway in 1974. I was 15, he was about 51. Always aware of him from his movies like "The...
Okay, so my second Broadway experience with Burton was the revival of "Camelot" in 1980. No "King Lear", but a happy relief after the brutal "Equus". It ran...
Great stories! I loved the Margie part! It hadn't even occured to me why people wouldn't wanna take the photo for him. I mean I'm reallllllllly shy and would...
I was so intensely shy then that when I made the initial step forward (and Burton looked at me like, "Well, here's some one",) I thought to myself, "Oh noooo,...

Hey, at least you kept a hold on the camera and didn't drop it, lol! ~*~Lisa~*~ "I was absolutely gonzo. My eyes were rolling around like marbles. Cars, yes....
The final time I saw Burton was in "Private Lives", with Elizabeth Taylor. I saw it twice. He had aged a bit since the revival of "Camelot". At the time I...
Hi Christine, I never got to see him on stage, but very much enjoyed reading your recollections of him. I know the Hamlet film isn't the best quality, but as...
Wish I had but nope. I was too young. ~*~Lisa~*~ "I was absolutely gonzo. My eyes were rolling around like marbles. Cars, yes. The wheels. They go around." ...

Well, it's nice to know that he still has young fans. I have a picture of him on my desk and the young people at work ask me who he is. They have no idea....
HA! I'm not sure how young I am as the "51" in my address does not indicate how many breezymiller's there are. However,?I do relate to younger people?not...
I got to see Richard perform in Private Lives and was disturbed at the time to see him so fragile. The voice was still glorious but the energy seemed gone. I...

I think that's a great idea-i check this place weekly and sometimes the thought that you've got to wait for your posting to appear can be discouraging. As you...
Again, thank you. Mine own recollections are not so clear...not so sure if it's because I was mightily smitten myself, of because I was 11 years old. What I...
Heidi, yes they had to be seen to be believed. Apart from the green being so pale and translucent, (you could see way back into the iris itself) the whites of...
Thank you for sharing. We seem to have had eerily similar experiences. I also saw Private Lives twice and though I didn't want to admit it, esp. to myself at...
