  • 1956 and ALL THAT: the Making of Modern British Drama
    Downloaded by [Central Uni Library Bucharest] at 22:49 23 September 2013 1956 AND ALL THAT Is it possible to look back beyond anger? It is said that British drama was shockingly lifted out of the doldrums by the ‘revolutionary’ appearance of John Osborne’s Look Back in Anger at the Royal Court in May 1956. But had the theatre been as ephemeral and effeminate as the Angry Young Men claimed? Was the era of Terence Rattigan and ‘Binkie’ Beaumont as repressed and closeted as it seems? In this bold and fascinating challenge to the received wisdom of the last forty years of theatrical history, Dan Rebellato uncovers a different story altogether. It is one where Britain’s declining Empire and increasing panic over the ‘problem’ of homosexuality played a crucial role in the construction of an enduring myth of the theatre. By going back to primary sources and rigorously questioning all assumptions, Rebellato has rewritten the history of the making of modern British drama. Plays discussed include: Look Back in Anger, The Entertainer, Personal Enemy, Epitaph for George Dillon—John Osborne; The Kitchen, Chicken Soup With Barley, Roots, I’m Talking About Jerusalem—Arnold Wesker; Johnson Over Jordan—J.B.Priestly; Each His Own Wilderness—Doris Lessing; Serjeant Musgrave’s Dance— John Arden; Cockpit—Bridget Boland; The Shadow Factory—Anne Ridler; A Taste of Honey—Shelagh Delaney; Salad Days—Julian Slade; and Valmouth—Sandy Wilson. Downloaded by [Central Uni Library Bucharest] at 22:49 23 September 2013 Dan Rebellato lectures in Drama and Theatre at Royal Holloway, University of London.

A Taste Of Honey, audience behaviour; censorship; club theatres; The Entertainer; Grand Theatre, Wolverhampton; Harold Pinter; Joan Littlewood; John Osborne; Look Back in Anger; Oh! What a Lovely War; repertory theatres; revues; Royal Court Theatre; Sandy Wilson's musicals; theatre-going; Theatre Workshop; ticket prices; Waiting for Godot; Arnold Wesker.. SG: Can you pinpoint where your interest in theatre started and why? JH: Yes I can. It started - as it does with many people - being taken to a pantomime, and I was seven when I went to my first pantomime, which was Cinderella at Wolverhampton. I lived about 15 miles from Wolverhampton, so that was our nearest theatre, and we were taken every year to the pantomime by my parents. I am one of five children and I couldn’t wait from one Christmas to the next to go to see this pantomime. I saw Cinderella, then Babes in the Wood, the next year Jack and the Beanstalk, then Robinson Crusoe, Little Miss Muffet, Dick Whittington and so on and so on. All of those were at The Grand Theatre, Wolverhampton, and The Grand Theatre, Wolverhampton played a very important part in my theatre-going, because not only was it a theatre that put on pantomimes but they also ran a very good repertory company, and I used to go to many of their productions. SG: You said actually when I spoke to you that you miss the repertory theatres now.

In 'BiJer Sweet' in 1929, Noël Coward abandoned the wiJy sophistication of the 1920s for a tribute to the romantic Viennese opereJas of his youth. BiJer Sweet is the story of an 18-year-old girl who elopes to Vienna with her music teacher. The London production starred American Postcard of Noël Coward, mid 20th century. Peggy Wood and George Metaxa, while on Broadway the English Evelyn Laye triumphed. The 1933 film was to make a star of Anna Neagle. Coward’s 1931 musical Cavalcade was a huge pageant celebration of major events in British history shown through the experience of an ordinary family.

Glamorous Nigh', Careless Rapture and The Dancing Years were big budget extravaganzas devised by Novello. To show off the technology of the Drury Lane stage he wrote in spectacular scenes such as earthquakes and sinking ships.
