A master of the graceful exit
By Kamal AL-
SOLAYLEE, Theatre Critic, Page R1
William HUTT was not one to linger. Anyone who saw his farewell
performance as Prospero at the Stratford Festival on October 28,
2005, knew that.
His curtain call on that memorable evening was a master class
in poise, humility and grace. Everybody expected a farewell speech.
He said nothing. A thank you, perhaps? Nope.
HUTT took a good,
heartfelt look at his audience and co-stars, savoured the moment
and took his leave.
In life, as in theatre,
HUTT didn't linger. News of his death
at the age of 87 came exactly three months after he officially
withdrew from the current Stratford season, where he was set
to star as Tobias in director Diana Leblanc's production of Edward
Albee's A Fine Balance. The man knew when to make his entrances
and his exits.
Although this particular and final exit has been anticipated,
it still comes as a shock. I interviewed him at the end of 2005,
and my most lasting impression was his infectiously youthful
spirit. (He was 85 then and handsome as ever.) In a hotel suite
in Toronto where he was holding back-to-back interviews to promote
the third season of the Canadian television series Slings and
Arrows, HUTT showed no signs of fatigue or jadedness. He was
there to do a job and was determined to do the best darn job
he could.
For most of us, though, it was his job - his calling, really
- as a stage actor that we've come to love and discuss and that
we struggle to find the right words to describe. Ask any actor,
director or critic about
HUTT and the first thing they'll cite
is his voice. Mellifluous and unmistakably thunderous, it captured
the uniqueness of Shakespearean English - a language both musical
and violent in texture - more precisely than any of his contemporaries.
An American woman sitting next to me at one of his recent Stratford
performances told me that she occasionally "watched"
HUTT with
her eyes closed in order to let his "gorgeous" voice wash all
over her. I followed her lead in Act 2 for a few minutes. It
worked.
It wasn't just a matter of diction and articulation, either (although
he was a master of both.)
HUTT brought a feeling of what lies
unspoken behind the words and sounds. Although I'm too young
to have seen his career-defining years at Stratford and elsewhere
in the fifties, sixties and seventies, and can't comment fully
on the physicality of his performances, I never felt cheated
on that front in the shows I've attended in the past 10 years
or so. HUTT used his body with an economy and an awareness of
both its life-affirming abilities and its many crushing frailties.
Nobody has ever criticized
HUTT for overacting - not even when
he took an astonishing stab at drag and played Lady Bracknell,
not once but twice, in productions of Oscar Wilde's The Importance
of Being Earnest.
Although his turn as Lady Bracknell may have shown his comfort
with gender roles, it also confirmed his immeasurably wide range
as an actor. Sure, he can handle Shakespeare and other playwrights
from the 16th and 17th centuries. But he also had an ear for,
and an understanding of, seminal works of modernist theatre as
he proved with his performances of Harold Pinter's No Man's Land
in 2003 and Samuel Beckett's Waiting for Godot in 2004 (both
for Soulpepper Theatre Company in Toronto).
It's sad to think that we'll never see this level of commitment,
versatility and shameless talent on stage again. What softens
the blow is that he's leaving behind him a grand theatrical legacy
and generations of actors who have worked with him and, if they're
lucky and smart enough, have learned what it's really like to
be part of Canadian acting royalty. His job is done. Why would
he linger?
