STEVEN BERKOFF QUOTES

"I remember in my younger days questioning what life means. Finding a place like the Berkoff Performing Arts Centre, I found myself as a person. Having a place like this sowed the seeds of the man I think I am today. A place like this is the first step in changing the life of a person. There's something about theatre that draws people together because it's something connected with the human soul. All over the UK, the performing arts links people with a shared humanity as a way to open the doors to the mysteries of life. We should never underestimate the power of the theatre. It educates, informs, enlightens and humanises us all". After being honoured at Alton College "The great actors we had came from actor / manager theaters. Not only did they create a team, they were the generals working with the soldiers. -- -- --

STEVEN BERKOFF TRIVIA

Born Leslie Steven Berks Steven is a playwright, author and director Deported from the USA due to a "deficiency in his documentation". Berkoff violated visa regulations in 1997 by staying one day longer than he was supposed to. [25 June 2002] After being deported in June 2002, Berkoff accused the US authorities of "Post September 11 hysteria". Ironically, shortly afterwards he performed a tribute about 9/11 at the Edinburgh festival fringe. He gave a solo performance entitled "Requiem For Ground Zero" at the Assembly Rooms, where his epic poem lasted for almost an hour. The Berkoff Performing Arts Centre at Alton College, North East Hampshire named after him on 20 June 208.
