Brian Cox on Tom Stoppard's sensational Rock'n'Roll: I looked through the curtain and saw Mick Jagger and Vaclav Havel'

By the time I was cast in Rock'n'Roll in 2006 I had been following Tom for years. I saw Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead when it came to London in 1967 with the wonderful Graham Crowden as the Player King. It was a big sensation. The Real Thing was a great play and Arcadia was extraordinary. Rock'n'Roll was w at the Royal Court in London by Trevor Nunn and starred Rufus Sewell as Jan, a Czech student who returns to Prague in 1968.
