There were other Shakespeare-related programmes as well, and the playwright himself appeared in three distinct historical dramas. In large part because no recordings exist of these transmissions (or of any British television Shakespeare before 1955), these ‘lost’ adaptations have received little scholarly attention.

  • SUBMISSION RE-EDIT Caitlin Thompson Dissertation 2019
    Making ‘fritters with English’: Functions of Early Modern Welsh Dialect on the English Stage by Caitlin Thompson A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Centre for Drama, Theatre, and Performance Studies University of Toronto © Copyright by Caitlin Thompson 2019 Making ‘fritters with English’: Functions of Early Modern Welsh Dialect on the English Stage Caitlin Thompson Doctor of Philosophy Centre for Drama, Theatre, and Performance Studies University of Toronto 2019 ABSTRACT The Welsh had a unique status as paradoxically familiar ‘foreigners’ throughout early modern London; Henry VIII actively suppressed the use of the Welsh language, even though many in the Tudor line selectively boasted of Welsh ancestry. Still, in the late-sixteenth century, there was a surge in London’s Welsh population which coincided with the establishment of the city’s commercial theatres. This timely development created a stage for English playwrights to dramatically enact the complicated relationship between the nominally unified nations. Welsh difference was often made theatrically manifest through specific dialect conventions or codified and inscrutable approximate Welsh language. This dissertation expands upon critical readings of Welsh characters written for the English stage by scholars such as Philip Schwyzer, Willy Maley, and Marissa Cull, to concentrate on the vocal and physical embodiments of performed Welshness and their functions in contemporary drama. This work begins with a historicist reading of literary and political Anglo-Welsh relations to build a clear picture of the socio-historical context from which Welsh characters of the period were constructed. The plays which form the focus of this work range from popular plays like Shakespeare’s Henry V (1599) to lesser-known works from Thomas Nashe’s Summer’s Last Will and Testament (1592) to Thomas Dekker’s The Welsh Embassador ii (1623) which illuminate the range of Welsh presentations in early modern England.

  • A Short History Of
    Formerly the Actors’ Orphanage Fund & the Actors’ Charitable Trust, TACT. A sketch of ACT’s history th to mark our 125 birthday by Robert Ashby, executive director Mrs Kittie Carson, wife of the editor of the Stage newspaper, became increasingly concerned about the welfare of actors and others connected with the theatre, particularly women and children. She felt that provision by other charities and friendly societies was inadequate; she disliked the requirement of several for one to be a member in order to benefit, that many had age restrictions, and that all were run by men. Mrs Carson’s first move in November 1891 was to found the Theatrical Ladies’ Guild (today The Theatrical Guild). Its purpose was quite simply to provide clothing, whether committee members’ cast-offs, donations from supporters, or items sewn and tailored by the Guild’s members themselves. Mrs Carson’s reasoning was that actresses who constantly travelled and who struggled to make ends meet, had no time to sew, and unemployed actresses certainly could not afford new clothes. Her new charity became closely linked with the Ladies’ Needlework Guild, and committee meetings seemed intertwined with ‘sewing bees’. Mrs Carson’s husband, Charles, alerted readers of the Stage to the need for help. The response from readers reinforced Mrs Carson’s sense of urgency in helping the profession’s children. Care of the young “would add solidity and prestige to the drama and its exponents”. Although the Actors’ Benevolent Fund had been asked repeatedly to take on responsibility for the children since 1888, it had been unwilling, already having so many incapacitated adult actors to support.

  • Notes and References
    Notes and References CHAPTER 1 To provide an intellectual and cultural framework for examining Carol Reed's films, a history of the British cinema from its origins through to the Second World War is offered in this chapter. Although Reed began directing in 1935, 1939 seemed a tidier, more logical cut-off point for the survey. All the information in the chapter is synthesized from several excellent works on the subject: Roy Armes's A Critical History of the British Cinema, Ernest Betts' The Film Business, Ivan Butler's Cinema in Britain, Denis Gifford's British Film Catalogue, Rachel Low's History of the British Film, and George Perry's The Great British Picture Show.
