For the 1984 Broadway engagement, McKellen received the Drama Desk Award for Outstanding One-Person Show and a Tony Award nomination. He received internationally rave reviews with some calling him "The new Olivier" and "The greatest classical actor of our generation".
The most recent performance was in Jersey Opera House in 1990, until its revival in 2022 by the Irvington Shakespeare Company.
In 1993 McKellen developed another version of this one-man show, 'A Knight Out' (using the play on word as a result of his being knighted in 1991) but this time focusing, as well as on stage roles, on his now ever-increasing film roles.

A predecessor of this show's format was John Giel
