Family Plays THE GHOST SONATA Drama by August Strindberg Translated by JOE MARTIN Music by ANNA LARSON © Family Plays THE GHOST SONATA Joe Martin’s fresh approach to August Strindberg’s work won acclaim from audiences and reviewers: “The American Showcase Theatre staged a fascinating version of the classic The Ghost Sonata as part of the Strindberg Festival ... The choice of The Ghost Sonata was fortuitous. It is mature August Strindberg in top artistic form ... deftly written, provocative and fast-paced with forceful images and a wonderful sense of symbolism ... The presentation includes a marvelously appropriate score ... The music is eerie and unnerving, and at times bears the same mad resemblance to a soundtrack that the characters bear to real people. And what haunting parodies of people they are! The actors give you a whole world of memorable portraits to carry home in your mind.” (Performing Arts News Magazine) “Our production was an alternative theatre production with minimalist sets in a relatively small theatre.” (Joe Martin, author) Drama with optional music.

But few in Americahave se en one of his plays. Perhaps we read The Dream Play in a high school world literature class or produced a brief scene from Miss Julie in a college theatre history workshop. We would probably have gone to se e one on stage, if we couldhave found one ...but there were none. Joe Martin, the translator of this new English-language version of The Ghost Sonata, wants to change al l thal Producers neglect Strind­ berg's plays, Martin believes, because of the mistaken attitude that Strindberg's works are gloomy, depressing, difficult to stage, difficult to understand. "This is my contribution to the re-evaluation of Strindberg that is currently going on," he said. Martin translated and directed The Ghost Sonata for the Strindberg Festival in Washington, DC, in 1988. It ran for five weeks at the American Showcase Theatre."11lis one differs from other translations in that it steers away from British diction and is based on Strindberg's own final draft, bypassing the distortions created by various editors through time . "We would like to convince creative theatre people that The Ghost Sonata can be exciting and manageable despite the highly unusual nature of the script . Our production was an alternative theatre produc­ tion with minimalist sets in a relatively small theatre." Instead of the elaborate two-story house delineated by Strindberg ( se e ''The Scene" at the beginning of the text ), the company used movable screens and flats as shown in the photographs in this playbook. (For another simplifi­ cation of the set, see the description on p. xiv of Ingmar Bergman's production.) The ofuse music and improvised sound effects as described on pages 38 and following helped lighten the mood of the play "to get away from that silly and boring myth that Strindberg must always be morose and heavy," Martin said The quirks one fmds in Strindberg's w<rks can be made to work in fascinating ways by talented actors, Martin points out. As an example, the Old Man early in the play comments on the Student's pronunciation of "window"-but the Student has not spoken the word . How does the performer playing the Student react? © Family Plays v Martin's fresh approach to Strindberg's work won acclaim from audience s andreviewers: The American Showcase Theatre staged a fascinating version of the classic The Ghost Sonata as part of the Strindberg Festival ... The choice of The Ghost Sonata was fortuitous. It is mature August Strindberg in top artistic form ...deftly written,provocative and fast-paced with forceful images

Let me show you!”1 Jean yells this at Julie as he gives a villainous laugh and tosses his ankle-length silk sleeves into the air. Jean rushes toward Julie, grabs what we now know is an imaginary bird from Julie’s hand and, facing the audience, violently wrings the bird’s neck, killing it. The bird still in his hand, Jean bends both legs into a deep squat, spins his arms like a jet propeller in a fanshen2 turn, and then bashes the bird’s body into the stage floor. Julie screams. Jean lets out a violent shout, whips his sleeves toward the floor and struts away offstage in a wide-legged swagger.3 1.

By combining they’re repeatable, and they from tuberculosis, a common thousands of cross-sectioned can be done without damaging disease at the time. x-ray images, CT scans let the history that we’re trying researchers examine the to understand,” Thomas says. Mummy #30007, known as the Gilded Lady, is one of the most beautifully preserved mummies from The Field Museum’s collection, and one of 19 now on view in the special exhibition Mummies. For decades, keeping mummies like this one well preserved also meant severely limiting the ability of researchers to study them. The result is that little was known about the Gilded Lady beyond what could be gleaned from the mummy’s exterior, with its intricate linen bindings, gilded headdress, and painted facial features. Exterior details do offer some clues. The mummy dates from 30 BC–AD 395, a period when Egypt was a province of the Roman Empire. While the practice of mummification endured in Egypt, it was being transformed by Roman influences. Before the Roman era, for example, mummies had been placed in wooden coffins, while the Gilded Lady is preserved in only linen wrappings and cartonnage, a papier mâché-like material.

  • Miss Julie by August Strindberg
    MTC Education Teachers’ Notes 2016 Miss Julie by August Strindberg – PART A – 16 April – 21 May Southbank Theatre, The Sumner Notes prepared by Meg Upton 1 Teachers’ Notes for Miss Julie PART A – CONTEXTS AND CONVERSATIONS Theatre can be defined as a performative art form, culturally situated, ephemeral and temporary in nature, presented to an audience in a particular time, particular cultural context and in a particular location – Anthony Jackson (2007). Because theatre is an ephemeral art form – here in one moment, gone in the next – and contemporary theatre making has become more complex, Part A of the Miss Julie Teachers’ Notes offers teachers and students a rich and detailed introduction to the play in order to prepare for seeing the MTC production – possibly only once. Welcome to our new two-part Teachers’ Notes. In this first part of the resource we offer you ways to think about the world of the play, playwright, structure, theatrical styles, stagecraft, contexts – historical, cultural, social, philosophical, and political, characters, and previous productions. These are prompts only. We encourage you to read the play – the original translation in the first instance and then the new adaptation when it is available on the first day of rehearsal. Just before the production opens in April, Part B of the education resource will be available, providing images, interviews, and detailed analysis questions that relate to the Unit 3 performance analysis task. Why are you studying Miss Julie? The extract below from the Theatre Studies Study Design is a reminder of the Key Knowledge required and the Key Skills you need to demonstrate in your analysis of the play.

  • The Undead Subject of Lost Decade Japanese Horror Cinema a Thesis
    The Undead Subject of Lost Decade Japanese Horror Cinema A thesis presented to the faculty of the College of Fine Arts of Ohio University In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree Master of Arts Jordan G. Parrish August 2017 © 2017 Jordan G. Parrish. All Rights Reserved. 2 This thesis titled The Undead Subject of Lost Decade Japanese Horror Cinema by JORDAN G. PARRISH has been approved for the Film Division and the College of Fine Arts by Ofer Eliaz Assistant Professor of Film Studies Matthew R. Shaftel Dean, College of Fine Arts 3 Abstract PARRISH, JORDAN G., M.A., August 2017, Film Studies The Undead Subject of Lost Decade Japanese Horror Cinema Director of Thesis: Ofer Eliaz This thesis argues that Japanese Horror films released around the turn of the twenty- first century define a new mode of subjectivity: “undead subjectivity.” Exploring the implications of this concept, this study locates the undead subject’s origins within a Japanese recession, decimated social conditions, and a period outside of historical progression known as the “Lost Decade.” It suggests that the form and content of “J- Horror” films reveal a problematic visual structure haunting the nation in relation to the gaze of a structural father figure. In doing so, this thesis purports that these films interrogate psychoanalytic concepts such as the gaze, the big Other, and the death drive. This study posits themes, philosophies, and formal elements within J-Horror films that place the undead subject within a worldly depiction of the afterlife, the films repeatedly ending on an image of an emptied-out Japan invisible to the big Other’s gaze.
