Albert Hunt, theatre director, teacher and writer, born 31 December 1928, died 21 September 2015, was a teacher, director and controversialist who belonged to an extraordinary upsurge in alternative theatre in Bradford, West Yorkshire, in the first flush of the fringe in the late 1960s and early 70s, having worked with Peter Brook at the Royal Shakespeare Company on the anti-Vietnam war collaborative venture, US (1966). In the mid-70s Hunt took an extended sabbatical in Australia, on a fellowship at Brisbane University, working with Maori artists and forming the Queensland People's theatre.
