EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the legendary Ian McKellen in Newcastle, where he proudly stands as a member of The Actors Company. Comprising 17 talented individuals, this cooperative ensures equal billing, pay, and terms for all its members. In an era when inequality was rampant in the entertainment industry, The Actors Company stood as a beacon of fairness and camaraderie. During his time with the company, Ian's weekly earnings amounted to around £50—a modest sum considering his immense talent and future success. However, financial matters were not his primary concern. Together with Edward Petherbridge, Ian co-founded this cooperative venture to combat the unpredictability and unreliability of film projects that often left actors hanging without compensation or opportunities. Ian candidly expresses his frustration with films' uncertain nature—promising roles that ultimately fall through due to funding issues or other unforeseen circumstances. This experience further solidified his commitment to The Actors Company's ethos of stability and equality. The photograph itself was taken on September 19th, 1972—an invaluable snapshot from a pivotal moment in both Ian McKellen's career and the history of British theater. It serves as a reminder of the determination and resilience required by artists who strive for artistic integrity amidst an ever-changing industry landscape.
