However, he lived in Czechoslovakia only until 1939, when his family moved to Singapore. Stoppard, his mother, and his older brother were evacuated to India shortly before the Japanese invasion of Singapore in 1941; his father, Eugene Straussler, remained behind and was killed. In 1946, Stoppard's mother, Martha, married British army officer Kenneth Stoppard and the family moved to England, eventually settling in Bristol. Stoppard left school at the age of seventeen and began working as a journalist, first with the Western Daily Press (1954-58) and then with the Bristol Evening World (1958-60).

CLOWNING ON AND THROUGH SHAKEPEARE: LATE 20th AND EARLY 21st CENTURY CLOWNING’S TACTICAL USE IN SHAKESPEARE PERFORMANCE by David W Peterson BA, University of Michigan, 2007 Masters, Michigan State University, 2009 Submitted to the Graduate Faculty of The Kenneth P. Dietrich School of Arts and Sciences in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Pittsburgh 2014 UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH THE KENNETH P. DIETRICH SCHOOL OF ARTS AND SCIENCES This dissertation was presented by David W Peterson It was defended on April 16, 2014 and approved by Dr. Attilio “Buck” Favorini, Professor Emeritus, Theatre Arts Dr. Bruce McConachie, Professor, Theatre Arts Dr. Jennifer Waldron, Associate Professor, English Dissertation Advisor: Dr. Lisa Jackson-Schebetta, Assistant Professor, Theatre Arts ii Copyright © by David Peterson 2014 iii CLOWNING ON AND THROUGH SHAKEPEARE: LATE 20th AND EARLY 21st CENTURY CLOWNING’S TACTICAL USE IN SHAKESPEARE PERFORMANCE David Peterson, PhD University of Pittsburgh, 2014 This dissertation argues that contemporary clown performance (as developed in the latter half of the 20th century) can be understood in terms of three key performance practices: the flop, interruption, and audience play. I further argue that these three features of flop, interruption, and audience play are distinctively facilitated by Shakespeare in both text and performance which, in turn, demonstrates the potential of both clown and Shakespeare to not only disrupt theatrical conventions, but to imagine new relationships to social and political power structures. To this end, I ally the flop with Jack Halberstam’s sense of queer failure to investigate the relationship between Macbeth and 500 Clown Macbeth.

Any use made of information contained in this thesis/dissertation must be in accordance with that legislation and must be properly acknowledged. Further distribution or reproduction in any format is prohibited without the permission of the copyright holder. CHAPTER 1 SHYLOCK & PERFORMANCE Such are the controversies which potentially arise from any new production of The Merchant of Venice, that no director or actor can prepare for a fresh interpretation of the character of Shylock without an overshadowing awareness of the implications of getting it wrong. This study is an attempt to describe some of the many and various ways in which productions of The Merchant of Venice have either confronted or side-stepped the daunting theatrical challenge of presenting the most famous Jew in world literature in a play which, most especially in recent times, inescapably lives in the shadow of history. I intend in this performance history to allude to as wide a variety of Shylocks as seems relevant and this will mean paying attention to every production of the play in the Shakespeare Memorial Theatre and the Royal Shakespeare Theatre, as well as every major production in London since the time of Irving. For reasons of practicality, I have confined my study to the United Kingdom1 and make few allusions to productions which did not originate in either Stratford or London.

Alumni Memories
Theatre Circle INSIGHTS Special Edition - Fall 2009 Indiana University Department of Theatre and Drama Alumni Memories DeAnna D. Rieber, BA’81, reports that the “IU and the Drama Department opened up my whole world!” She shared fond memories of many wonderful teachers, includ- ing Chair R. Keith Michael “an amazing teacher,” drama teacher Marilyn Norris - “she was fabulous, and like so many other students, Bill [William] Kinzer. I found out later in life that my father had Mr. Kinzer when he attended IU many years before.” Nancy Kierspe Carlson, BA’58, has wonderful stories to tell about the Brown County Playhouse and “those wild rides down to Nashville in a covered truck in the summer of 1957.” She writes, “Richard K. Knaub, who taught at I.U. and designed the lighting at the playhouse, would drive the cranky truck; and in the back were, honest-to-gosh, ten rickety folding chairs…five aligned on each side, attached to nothing, free to bounce wherever the bumps took them.” She also noted that today that would never happen - and she is right! THANK YOU, alumni, for responding to our request for your memories! This is a great start in our quest to collect stories, Special thanks to Theatre Circle for support of this color edition photos, and memorabilia that will tell our collective story for of STAGES which includes generations to come. When I shared these with students, some Theatre Circle INSIGHTS, a thought that a few of you might be pulling my leg. But, with a quarterly publication focusing little research we were able to come up with evidence that the on current events in the depart- stories are true.
