HAROLD PINTER’S BIO Harold Pinter, 2005 Nobel Laureate for Literature (October 10, 1930 - December 24, 2008), was born in London’s working-class Hackney district to Hyman and Frances Pinter, Jewish Eastern Europeans who had immigrated to the United Kingdom from Portugal. Pinter has said that his encounter with anti-Semitism while growing up in England was the fuse that ignited the organic process leading him to becoming a playwright. As his Nobel Prize citation attests, Pinter developed into the greatest En- glish dramatist of the post-World War II era. In 1957, Bristol Uni- versity staged Pinter’s fi rst play The Room. The Room had all the hallmarks of what would become known as “Pinteresque” in that it set up a commonplace situation that gradually became fi lled with menace and mystery through the author’s deliberate examination of the characters and their starker hidden id-like drives. “Your writing absolutely fascinates me,” Noel Coward wrote to Pinter in 1965 after seeing his third full-length play, The Homecoming. “You cheerfully break every rule of theatre that I was brought up to believe in. I love your choice of words, your resolute refusal to explain anything and the triumphant demands you make on the audience’s imagination.” Along with the 1967 Tony Award for Best Play for The Homecoming and several other American awards and award nominations, he and his plays received many awards in the UK and elsewhere throughout the world, including the 2007 French Legion d’honneur. DirectorsDIRECTOR Notes AND ARTISTIC DIRECTOR’S NOTE This play has been challenging audiences and scholars ever since its premiere in 1965. It has inspired dozens of books and essays analyzing the play and its characters, attempting to decipher their meaning. Its blend of realism and surrealism, the mercurial switches from the savage to the polite and the characters’ seemingly incomprehensible behavior are just a few of the things that drew me to want to direct it in the fi rst place. Now after spending a great deal of time working on it with a splendid production team and a terrifi c cast, I do know this: The Homecoming is about a family that can only communicate through their long-established ritual of war. They are at war and every scene is a battle. And every- one is always trying to win. That’s what makes this play as potent and surprising today as it was when Pinter fi rst unleashed it onto audiences. It’s also what makes it funny. I hope you enjoy watching the bloodshed as much as we enjoyed staging it. -Guillermo Cienfuegos, Director As we approach our 30th anniversary, we are honored to present Harold Pinter’s The Homecoming. Pinter was one of the greatest playwrights of the 20th century, and in many ways changed the way we look at theater. What I fi nd beautiful about the play is that Pinter writes from an unbridled, poetic, emotional honesty. He writes impulse- and through the impulse, his words become vessels of strong human need. The characters needs provide the play with a truth that defi es realism. To quote literary critic John Lahr, “The territorial battle being waged in The Homecoming is ultimately not about the house or the people in it, but about who’s perception of reality will prevail.” --Marilyn Fox, Artistic Director ACTOR BIOGRAPHIES Jude Ciccolella (Max) has been seen recently on fi lm inSin City: A Dame To Kill For; and on TV in Matador, Perception, Major Crimes and Beautiful And Twisted.

    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Diposit Digital de Documents de la UAB 4.5.1 Los abducidos: El duro retorno En Expediente X se duda de si las abducciones son obra de humanos o de extraterrestres por lo menos hasta el momento en que Mulder es abducido al final de la Temporada 7. La duda hace que el encuentro con otras personas que dicen haber sido abducidas siempre tenga relevancia para Mulder, Scully o ambos, como se puede ver con claridad en el caso de Cassandra Spender. Hasta que él mismo es abducido se da la paradójica situación de que quien cree en la posibilidad de la abducción es él mientras que Scully, abducida en la Temporada 2, siempre duda de quién la secuestró, convenciéndose de que los extraterrestres son responsables sólo cuando su compañero desaparece (y no necesariamente en referencia a su propio rapto). En cualquier caso poco importa en el fondo si el abducido ha sido víctima de sus congéneres humanos o de alienígenas porque en todos los casos él o ella cree –con la singular excepción de Scully– que sus raptores no son de este mundo. Como Leslie Jones nos recuerda, las historias de abducción de la vida real que han inspirado este aspecto de Expediente X “expresan una nueva creencia, tal vez un nuevo temor: a través de la experimentación sin emociones realizada por los alienígenas usando cuerpos humanos adquiridos por la fuerza, se demuestra que el hombre pertenece a la naturaleza, mientras que los extraterrestres habitan una especie de supercultura.” (Jones 94).
