Centering on the reminiscences of Rose McNulty, a woman who has spent over fifty years in state institutions, The Secret Scripture is a deeply moving story of love lost and redeemed, against the backdrop of an emerging Irish state in which female sexuality and independence unsettles the colluding patriarchies of church and nationalist politics. Demonstrating Sheridan’s trademark skill with actors, his profound sense of story, and depth of feeling for Irish social history, The Secret Scripture marks a return to personal themes for the writer-director as well as a reunion with producer Noel Pearson, almost a quarter of a century after their breakout success with My Left Foot.

  • Reading the Theatrical Nebentext in Ben Jonson's Workes As
    From directions to descriptions: Reading the theatrical Nebentext in Ben Jonson’s Workes as an authorial outlet David J. Amelang Freie Universität Berlin, Germany ABSTRACT This article explores how certain dramatists in early modern England and in Spain, specifically Ben Jonson and Miguel de Cervantes (with much more emphasis on the former), pursued authority over texts by claiming as their own a new realm which had not been available—or, more accurately, as prominently available—to playwrights before: the stage directions in printed plays. The way both these playwrights and/or their publishers dealt with the transcription of stage directions provides perhaps the clearest example of a theatrical convention translated into the realm of readership. KEYWORDS: William Shakespeare; Ben Jonson; Lope de Vega; Miguel de Cervantes; stage directions.

  • The Representation of Celtic Tiger Irish Masculinity in Hollywood Cinema: 1994-2008
    The Representation of Celtic Tiger Irish Masculinity in Hollywood Cinema: 1994-2008 Elizabeth Carville A major thesis presented in fulfilment of the requirement for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the subject of English, Maynooth University, Department of English. August 2018 Head of Department: Prof. Colin Graham Research Supervisors: Prof. Luke Gibbons and Dr Denis Condon. Contents Introduction 1 Chapter One “Tiger Celts”: Irishness, Whiteness, and Masculinity 33 Chapter Two “Gael Gore”: Hollywood Representations of Irish Violence 86 Chapter Three Fathers, Sons, and Irish Masculinity 144 Chapter Four Sexuality and the City: The Irish Metrosexual 204 Conclusion 271 Bibliography 281 Filmography 304 SUMMARY By analysing the careers of three Irish actors in the U.S. during the Celtic Tiger period— Colin Farrell, Cillian Murphy, and Jonathan Rhys Meyers—this thesis explores the representation of Celtic Tiger Irish masculinity in Hollywood cinema. It considers the “Celtic Tiger” as an economic phenomenon that had cultural ramifications and affected the meanings attached to Irishness at a local and global level. Each chapter takes a trope or stereotype connected to the representation of Irish masculinity in cinema. Chapter One, “Tiger Celts”: Irishness, Whiteness, and Masculinity, considers the way that Irishness registers as a form of enriched whiteness in popular culture while still laying claim to a victim status that has extended from Ireland’s former colonization. It argues that as both film stars and characters, Farrell, Murphy, and Meyers avail of the cultural currency of whiteness, but remain inseparable from their ethnicity. They are seldom cast as actors but as Irish actors in Hollywood, and the contention that the Irishness of Farrell, Murphy, and Meyers lingers as a watermark that remains present regardless of the accent or ethnicity of the characters they play underlies the arguments made throughout the thesis as a whole.

  • Phantom Notes Outline
    ~ Final Production Information ~ His voice calls to her, nurturing her extraordinary talents from the shadows of the opera house where innocent chorus girl Christine Daae (EMMY ROSSUM) makes her home. Only ballet mistress Madame Giry (MIRANDA RICHARDSON) knows that Christine’s mysterious “Angel of Music” is actually the Phantom (GERARD BUTLER), a disfigured musical genius who haunts the catacombs of the theatre, terrifying the ensemble of artists who live and work there. When temperamental diva La Carlotta (MINNIE DRIVER) walks out in the middle of a dress rehearsal for the company’s latest production, the theatre’s eager new managers (SIMON CALLOW and CIARAN HINDS) have no choice but to thrust Christine into the spotlight. Her mesmerizing opening night performance captivates both the audience and the Phantom, who devotes himself to casting his protégé as the opera’s next star. But he is not the only powerful man to be awed by the young soprano, as Christine soon finds herself courted by the theatre’s wealthy patron, the Vicompte Raoul de Chagny (PATRICK WILSON). Though she is enthralled by her charismatic mentor, Christine is undeniably drawn to the dashing Raoul, enraging the Phantom and setting the stage for a dramatic crescendo in which soaring passions, fierce jealousies and obsessive love threaten to drive the fated lovers past the point of no return. 2 Warner Bros. Pictures presents, in association with Odyssey Entertainment, a Really Useful Films / Scion Films production of a film by Joel Schumacher, The Phantom of the Opera, starring GERARD BUTLER, EMMY ROSSUM, PATRICK WILSON, MIRANDA RICHARDSON and MINNIE DRIVER.

  • At a Glance: 2018-2019
    AT A GLANCE: 2018-2019 PICT Classic Theatre’s mission is to produce innovative interpretations of dramatic literature in the classic and Irish traditions. PICT will fulfill this mission by exploring current social issues through the lens of classic and timeless stories. Incorporated in 1997 and now in its 22nd season, PICT Classic Theatre (formerly Pittsburgh Irish & Classical Theatre) is a professional theatre company that has garnered national and international acclaim through its commitment to producing theatre of substance and artistic merit. PICT produces the works of local playwrights (Martin Giles, Lissa Brennan, & Ray Werner), other original works (Simon Bradbury), and several play adaptations by our Artistic & Executive Director, Alan Stanford. These works include four recent World Premieres. PICT performs at WQED in Oakland, attracting 7,000 audience members per season, with an annual operating budget of approximately $800,000. PICT is a lean and entrepreneurial company with a fiercely devoted following of over 500 multi-show subscribers. PICT is one of few Pittsburgh theatres to be funded by the national Shubert Foundation. PICT has received substantial project grants from the National Endowment for the Arts. PICT’s production of Antony & Cleopatra received a National Endowment for the Arts Shakespeare for a New Generation education grant, one of only four such grants awarded in Pennsylvania and the only one in Southwestern PA. In 2018, PICT was one of 38 Pittsburgh area organizations to receive support from Bloomberg Philanthropies, through their Arts Innovation and Management Program. Recent Accolades: Dagda Award presented to Martin Giles in October 2017 for his breadth of work with PICT including more than 50 directorial and performance roles; Top 10 Plays of 2017: Sive, Pittsburgh Post-Gazette; James FitzGerald as the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette Performer of 2015, with PG noting two PICT performances, Fagin in Oliver Twist and Dinzie Conlee in Sharon's Grave.
