TfL currently runs a scheme whereby students in London can receive travel discounts through a successful application for a student Oyster card. Applications are made with forms only available through Imperial College Registry, which are stamped with the official Imperial College seal, and the Registrar’s signature. One Imperial student, having had his application rejected, enquired about the reason and was told that signature on record didn’t quite match up with that provided by the Registry. He was told that nothing could be done until the Registry had sorted out the problem with TfL, replacing the signature used for comparison – meaning he would have to make another application, costing another five pounds, and would have no travel discounts in the mean time.

AS: You have been described as both a producer and an impresario, although some critics claim that there is nowadays an uncertainty as to the precise meaning of these words. Given the slippage between the two, and that you have been described using each of the terms, but that they are not mutually exclusive, which would you describe yourself as? MC: I sometimes say impresario but it sounds like the wretched man from Pinocchio, doesn't it? Do you remember that man that tried to capture Pinocchio? But I really am a producer, a theatre producer. Yes, impresario sounds rather evil, doesn't it? [laughs] Perhaps I am evil, occasionally. AS: So how would you define this profession before 1968, what would it involve? MC: As far as I'm concerned? Well you’re asking me to talk about 1945 aren't you first, when I was all of 15. AS: What about after you became a producer, how would you define the profession? MC: No I didn't become a producer until 1950-something. AS: You're right, we'll do it chronologically.

  • THEATRE in ENGLAND 2012-13 UNIVERSITY of ROCHESTER Mara Ahmed
    THEATRE IN ENGLAND 2012-13 UNIVERSITY OF ROCHESTER Mara Ahmed The Master and Margarita Barbican Theatre 12/28/12 Based on Mikhail Bulgakov’s novel, this adaptation by Simon McBurney is as inventive and surprising as the book’s storyline. Satan disguised as Professor Woland visits Stalinist Russia in the 1930s. He and his violent retinue use their black magic and death prophesies to dispose of people and take over their apartments; most villainy and betrayal in the play is in fact motivated by the acquisition of apartment space. Bulgakov is satirizing the restriction of private space in Stalin’s Russia but buildings are also a metaphor for the structure of society as a whole. Rooms are demarcated by light beams, in the constantly changing set design, in order to emphasize relative boundaries and limits. The second part of the play focuses on Margarita and her lover, a writer who has just finished a novel about the complex relationship between Pontius Pilate (the Roman procurator of Judaea) and Yeshua ha-Nostri (Jesus, a wandering philosopher). Margarita calls him the Master on account of his brilliant literary chef d’oeuvre. She is devoted to him. However, the Master’s novel is ridiculed by the Soviet literati and after being denounced by a neighbor, he is taken into custody and ends up at a lunatic asylum. The parallels between his persecution and that of his principal character, Jesus, are brought into relief by constant shifts in time and place, between Moscow and Jerusalem.
