David Weinberg

David's new book 'The Marowitz Compendium' was published in Europe (Ibidem Press) and America (Columbia University Press) in April 2021. Glenda Jackson CBE two-time Academy Award-winning Best Actress and longtime member of Parliament was kind enough to write the forward for the book. David moved to London in 2003 to complete an MA at RADA. In London’s West End, he debuted first as an actor in 'The Comedy News Hour' at the Leicester Square Theater and most recently he directed Chekhov’s masterpiece 'Three Sisters' upstairs at the Arts Theatre. In 2012, it was confirmed that David was the first American to direct at the historic Rose Theatre, Bankside where the plays of Shakespeare were originally performed. He directed 'The Merchant of Venice' and later 'Pericles' at the beginning and end of the annual Rose season. His first book was published in 2017 by the same publisher and he has taught theater studies at Kingston University London and the University of London.
