Paterson Joseph Interview
Firstly, could you tell us a little bit about your story, and how you got to where you are today in your career?
Paterson Joseph: I was a pretty shy,silent seventeen year old, and I was training to be a chef. At some point I realized that I hated working within four walls, I hated the restriction of it.
My Dad was a plasterer, and I knew that I didn’t want to do any laboring because I tried and within minutes found it much too hard! So I decided to give acting a try and I auditioned for the National Youth Theater.
I guess that must have been a very memorable moment for you, but if we were to ask you to name another memorable moment maybe as an audience member or from being in a show, is there any particular one you would mention?
Paterson Joseph: As an actor I will always remember the tour of a Shakespeare play, The Tempest, and a Sophocles play called Philoctetes that I did with a theatre company called Cheek by Jowl in 1989.
It was my third job out of drama school. I was in my early twenties and we were taken to a lot of places, but one of the places I remember very well was a sort of Eastern European leg of the tour.
Ah, so you can hold them to account if it is rubbish?!
Paterson Joseph: Exactly, yeh.
We understand that you’re involved in some initiatives to get the wider community involved, so would you like to talk about them a little bit?
Paterson Joseph: I’m obviously first and foremost an actor, and so most of the time I spend just doing that. However, if I ever get a chance I will do work in schools.
So I’ll go in and basically just talk to pupils and get them to get up and do stuff with me so that they can see that it’s not rocket science – it’s just fun and games.
I’ve done a bit of work with the National; they’ve got a brilliant education department who outreach to the local schools and colleges, so they’ve come in and I’ve done workshops with them.
Some people have been to the theatre – and it might have been at a younger age, but it could also have been someone who was a little bit older and trying to get into theatre – and for whatever reason they’ve had a bad experience. So what do you think the theatre community around the country should be doing to get future generations into auditoriums and on to stages?
Paterson Joseph: I think theatre is sometimes perceived as an elitist world. I didn’t go to the theatre until I became involved in it at the youth theatre.
So why was that? It wasn’t part of my culture I suppose, being from an Afro-Caribbean background, and a working class one at that.
I think if I knew that it was easy to go in, if theatres seemed to be open places, and if there seemed to be more going on than just the play – if there were other events attached to it – then I suppose I would have gotten involved even before I knew about it.
