 Guardian Unlimited Arts features 'We just tell the story'
For many years, Hilton taught Shakespeare at the Bristol Old Vic theatre school, and he has drawn many of those who trained there into his company.
Hilton has a reputation for bringing Shakespeare vividly to life; his productions, performed in an old industrial space where nobody sits more than 20ft from the stage, make you feel that you are seeing each play in close-up.
Hilton is aware that if Shakespeare at the Tobacco Factory is to continue in the long term, he needs to find new ways to tell these old stories and experiment more with the physical and the visual, theatrical tools that he feels he still hasn't entirely mastered.
