NZ’s 2002 Actor of the Year, Ray Henwood, has taken his award-winning portrayal of Richard Burton Sydney-side. In Playing Burton the Welsh-born actor brings to life his hell-raising compatriot with uncanny ability. Opening night at The Playhouse lived up to expectations: “Henwood’s strong performance … captures [Burton’s] passion, his charm and his skills as a yarn spinner.”
