He went on to attend Hertford College, Oxford,〔 though he left after one year without obtaining an academic degree.〔 He trained for the stage at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art alongside Joan Littlewood, Rachel Kempson,〔 Robert Morley, and Peter Bull.〔 Banbury died on 14 May 2008, at the age of 96.〔
== Theatrical career ==
Banbury made his first stage appearance on 15 June 1933, playing a walk-on part in ''If I Were You'' at the Shaftesbury Theatre. He continued to act through the 1930s and 40s, appearing at such venues as the Ambassadors Theatre, the Little Theatre, the Gate Theatre, the Apollo Theatre, and the Q Theatre.〔 After World War II, Banbury was invited back to the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art to direct. He made his professional directing breakthrough by directing ''Dark Summer'', a play written by fellow pacifist Wynyard Browne. Other early successes for Banbury included ''The Holly and the Ivy'', ''Waters of the Moon'', and ''The Deep Blue Sea''.〔 The latter was one of three plays which Banbury directed on Broadway, with the other two being ''Flowering Cherry'' and ''The Right Honourable Gentleman''. Other locations at which Banbury directed plays include the Old Vic theatre, the Edinburgh Festival, the Chichester Festival Theatre, Paris, Dublin, South Africa, Kenya, and Australia.〔
