Shakespeare News SHAKESPEARE NEWS https://ui.constantcontact.com/visualeditor/visual_editor_previe... presents Nothing is Truer than Truth Nothing is Truer than Truth at The American Film Market, Mark Rylance joins The Shakespeare Oxford Fellowship, and more... 1 of 10 12/13/13 4:34 PM SHAKESPEARE NEWS https://ui.constantcontact.com/visualeditor/visual_editor_previe... Controversy Films was an official participant at The American Film Market in Los Angeles this month. With almost 8,000 attendees and 800 buyers, AFM is the biggest film market in the United States. We met with distributors, producers, industry insiders, actors, writers, and many friends. NOTHING IS TRUER THAN TRUTH sparked interest from several new collaborators and potential partners. On Friday afternoon, former Women in Film New York president and entertainment attorney Laverne Berry and I shared stories poolside with writer Sam Joseph and producer Byron Martin. Saturday included lunch with Controversy Films mentor and film critic James Ulmer, IMDB hero Matt Syrette and the newest member of the Ulmer Scale crew Ethan. After pitching to international distributors at the market, I went over to the AFI Film Festival in Hollywood to meet Controversy Films festival guru Vicki Oleskey and catch the premiere screening of THE PAST, from Iranian 2 of 10 12/13/13 4:34 PM SHAKESPEARE NEWS https://ui.constantcontact.com/visualeditor/visual_editor_previe... director Asghar Farhadi, whose previous film A SEPARATION won the 2012 Academy Award for best foreign language film. On Monday, I had coffee in West Hollywood with award-winning actor and writer Gregory Martin and his partner Cherie, and then we all drove to the Dreamworks Animation campus for a fabulous lunch with Controversy Films advisor Carole Sue Lipman. Before heading back to Boston, I attended the Indie Wire party on the Santa Monica Pier, and talked with publisher James Israel about this year's AFI line up. Read more about the market here.

From Roger Stritmatter's blog, the latest discussion of this poem attributed to Edward de Vere: My mind to me a kingdom is; Such perfect joy therein I find That it excels all other bliss That world affords or grows by kind. Though much I want which most men have, Yet still my mind forbids to crave. No princely pomp, no wealthy store, No force to win the victory, No wily wit to salve a sore, No shape to feed each gazing eye; To none of these I yield as thrall. For why my mind doth serve for all. Read the entire poem and story here. Harper's Magazine printed the poem in 2010 with the following comments: -Edward de Vere, Earl of Oxford, My Mind to Me A Kingdom Is (ca. 1585) first published (in modified form) in William Byrd, Psalms, Sonnets, and Songs of Sadness and Piety (1588). 7 of 10 12/13/13 4:34 PM SHAKESPEARE NEWS https://ui.constantcontact.com/visualeditor/visual_editor_previe... "This poem is one of the true masterpieces of the Elizabethan era, understandable on many levels: as a sanctuary of conscience, as a statement of Calvinist precepts, as a dissertation on contentment, as a praise of the powers of imagination and invention. William Byrd's setting of the Oxford poem is one of the finest English art songs of the Elizabethan era." Donate now!

We are truly thankful for and other new research. your support of this important project. Arden of Faversham, The Spanish Tragedy and Mucedorus will now be included in a major edition of collaborative plays bearing the Bard's name. Jonathan Bate, a renowned Shakespeare scholar, said the evidence has convinced him that specific parts within those plays must have had input from Shakespeare. Bate, professor of English literature at Oxford University, says the issue is "perhaps the single most significant lacuna in 21st-century Shakespearean scholarship". Read the entire article here.

  • Twelfth Night
    Character Study of Malvolio in Twelfth Night Malvolio, Olivia’s steward in Twelfth Night, is self-important, pompous, and even a little puritanical (he is accused of being a ‘puritan’ by the other characters). But he is also alienated. Indeed, his alienation from the other characters – from Olivia’s affections and favours which he so craves, and from Sir Toby Belch, Sir Andrew Aguecheek, and Fabian and their drunken and riotous antics – is his saving grace, and what prevents him from being an insufferable bore. We take delight in laughing at him when he dons yellow stockings and makes a fool of himself, believing his mistress wants him to dress in such a ridiculous fashion; but Shakespeare encourages to laugh as much at Malvolio’s human frailty and weakness as at his pomposity and delusions of grandeur. His (deluded) belief that Olivia may indeed favour him is only too understandable, especially in Twelfth Night, a play with no shortage of characters who have deluded beliefs about other characters’ affections. We enjoy seeing him taken down a peg or two, but Shakespeare wants our mockery to be gentle, rather than gleefully triumphant. Indeed, this is the clever masterstroke of that key scene, II.5, in which Malvolio finds the letter (really written by Maria, Olivia’s gentlewoman, but imitating her mistress’ handwriting) in which Olivia supposedly declares, anonymously, her fondness for her steward, and Sir Toby Belch, Sir Andrew Aguecheek, and Fabian all hide in the tree and watch as Malvolio prances his way about the place, his breast positively swelling with misplaced pride at the prospect of Olivia liking him.

So what is this distinction; when, and why is it bestowed upon particular individuals? This essay considers how different actors and casting practices help to construct the way audiences view Shakespeare, his texts, his characters, and most importantly, his actors. My thinking is prompted by a variety of vexed and interconnected questions. What is a Shakespearean actor, and how is one defined? Who has traditionally been allowed to be one, and how has this term changed over time? And how is the process of being considered a “Shakespearean actor” different and more difficult for non-British, non-white, non-cisgender male, and/or disabled practitioners? These questions do not, of course, have clear answers.
