As an actor in English plays...Harold Pinter's Old Times.

Mr. Ramanathan was a versatile stage actor. He has acted in several stage plays in English and Tamil. He acted in the lead role in Harold Pinter's Old Times staged in the auditorium of British Council, Madras (Chennai) in the late 70s. His co actors were MsVishalam (English Newsreader in television in the 70s) and Ms Bhageerathi.

Mr. Ramanathan also acted in the Shakespearean  play MACBETH also performed in the British Council. He played the role of Macduff while Mr. P C Ramakrishna of the Madras Players was Macbeth. It was interesting to watch a sword fight between the two.
