"Remember with Advantages" is the theatrical memoir of actor Barry Morse. It details an extraordinary journey from his childhood as a Cockney boy in the East End of London and his win, against all odds, of a full scholarship to the famed Royal Academy of Dramatic Art at the age of 15. He describes how this unlikely beginning propelled him into an international career on stage and screen, including starring roles on Broadway, London''s West End, and in television series such as "The Fugitive", "Space: 1999", and "The Winds of War". He crosses paths with numerous notable figures along the way, including George Bernard Shaw, Noel Coward, Peter Cushing, Alfred Hitchcock, David Janssen, Robert Mitchum, and many others. One of the most versatile pros in show business, his book is more than just a memoir; it is a wealth of theatrical history and stands as testament to an era which is gone forever.
The Foreword to the book is written by Academy Award-winning actor Martin Landau, who writes:
"Barry's life is a virtual history of the twentieth century... and deserves to be read by everyone on the planet, theatre-folk and civilian alike."
