Andrew Knott on Bringing Beatle John Lennon to Life in London's Backbeat

Andrew Knott was scarcely into his teens when the actor, 32 next month, appeared as Dickon in the 1993 screen retelling of The Secret Garden, starring Maggie Smith. Nearly two decades later, the amiable actor has had two daughters, gone to Broadway with Alan Bennett’s The History Boys, and is now playing John Lennon under David Leveaux’s direction in Backbeat, the West End stage adaptation of the 1994 Iain Softley film, at the Duke of York’s Theatre. Broadway.com caught up with Knott to find out what it’s like playing Lennon.
