What’s so ancient about Greek mythology? | James Barton Steel | TEDxRoyalCentralSchool

He also enjoys a fascination with the ancient world and before embarking down the acting path he studied a BA Hons Classical Archaeology and Ancient History at University of Warwick, where he combined a love of the theatre with an appreciation for where it all began. He want on to gain an MA in Acting where his thesis focused on the work of Steven Berkoff, specifically his reimagining and interpretation of classic stories. This talk is based on two strands of James' life that have shaped and defined him.
