__1964:__ Richard Burton, newly married to Elizabeth Taylor, is to play the title role in an experimental new Broadway production of Hamlet under John Gielgudâ??s exacting direction.

The hugely celebrated production of *The Motive and the Cue* transfers to the West End this December for 15 weeks only, following a sold-out run at the National Theatre.
