Poirot actor Sir David Suchet reflects on his career in Poirot And More, A Retrospective, at Nottingham Theatre Royal

Acclaimed actor Sir David Suchet is to look back on his distinguished career during a visit to Nottingham’s Theatre Royal.

Poirot And More, A Retrospective, is at the venue on Sunday, at 2pm and 7pm.

It is a journey through his illustrious career, where he will share some of his most beloved performances in a new and intimate light.

Geoffrey Wansell, journalist, broadcaster, biographer and co-author of Poirot And Me, will be joining David as interviewer.

David Suchet said: “Regional theatre has always been very close to my heart as it’s where my career started and was nurtured. To visit so many places that have meant so much to me during my 52-year career is wonderful.

“This show is my way of connecting and saying hello to people across the country after this terrible period and welcoming them back into the theatre. I am looking forward to sharing my memories, stories and favourite moments.”

For more than 25 years David captivated millions worldwide on screen as Agatha Christie’s elegant Belgian detective.

As well as Poirot, David has graced the world’s stages bringing literary greats to life, including Shakespeare, Wilde, Albee and Miller and is celebrated for his portrayals of iconic roles such as Lady Bracknell, Cardinal Benelli, Joe Keller and Gregory Solomon.

He also spent 13 years in the Royal Shakespeare Company.

He is an Emmy award winner, a seven-time Olivier Award Nominee (The Merchant of Venice, Separation, Oleanna, Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf?, Amadeus, All My Sons and The Price) and in 2020 was knighted for services to drama and charity.
