  • Foxfinder by Dawn King Directed by Blanche Mcintyre
    Press Information New Writing at the Finborough Theatre Season November 2011 to January 2012 Papatango Theatre Company in partnership with the Finborough Theatre present four world premieres The Papatango Playwriting Festival 2011 Foxfinder by Dawn King Directed by Blanche McIntyre. Designed by James Perkins. Lighting by Gary Bowman. Sound by George Dennis. Cast: Kirsty Besterman. Tom Byam Shaw. Becci Gemmell. Gyuri Sarossy. Papatango have teamed up with one of London's leading new writing venues, the Finborough Theatre to present the winning entries in the 2011 Papatango Playwriting Competition 2011, featuring this year's winning play Foxfinder by Dawn King which will play for a four week limited season from 29 November (Press Night: Thursday, 1 December 2011 at 8.30pm). “You, Foxfinder, must be clean in body and mind. Always remember that the smallest fault in your character could become a crack into which the beast may insinuate himself, like water awaiting the freeze that will smash the stone apart.” William Bloor, a Foxfinder, arrives at Sam and Judith Covey’s farm to investigate a suspected contamination. What follows will change the course of all their lives, forever. Foxfinder is a gripping, unsettling and darkly comic exploration of belief, desire and responsibility. Playwright Dawn King was one of ten writers from across the UK chosen for the BBC Writersroom 10 scheme, a prestigious mentoring and support programme. Through this she is developing a new play with West Yorkshire Playhouse. She is also currently writing My One and Only, an afternoon play for BBC radio 4. Her episode of horror series The Man in Black will broadcast on BBC radio 4 Extra later this year.

  • Introduction to Ecovenue Ecovenue Is a Signifi Cant Theatre-Specifi C Environmental Project Being Run by the Theatres Trust
    Introduction to Ecovenue Ecovenue is a signifi cant theatre-specifi c environmental project being run by The Theatres Trust. It aims to improve the environmental performance of forty-eight London theatres and raise awareness of how to make theatres greener. Ecovenue is promoting the sustainability of theatres and the reduction of carbon emissions through the provision of free theatre-specifi c, environmental advice. The project started in 2009 and runs until 2012. Forty-eight venues each undergo an Environmental Audit, and receive a Display Energy Certifi cate (DEC) and Advisory Report. They track their energy use through SMEasure. Each venue receives a second DEC a year after their fi rst to measure progress. Ecovenue includes a ‘DEC Pool’ of performing arts venues across the UK that have obtained DECs. The DEC Pool helps us to evaluate the project and share best practice and information, establish meaningful benchmarks, and provide a better understanding of energy use of theatres. Any theatre can join the DEC Pool. The Trust’s Theatres Magazine provides quarterly reports on the participants and the work of the Ecovenue project. The Theatres Trust Ecovenue project receives fi nancial support from the European Regional Development Fund.

  • JUST to GET MARRIED by Cecily Hamilton
    Press Information ! ! VIBRANT NEW WRITING | UNIQUE REDISCOVERIES Summer Season – July–September 2017 The first London production in over 100 years JUST TO GET MARRIED by Cecily Hamilton. Directed by Melissa Dunne. Presented by Papercut Theatre in association with Neil McPherson for the Finborough Theatre. “It takes a confirmed spinster to be as sentimental as you are. What’s to happen to me if I don’t marry – what’s to be the end of me?" The first London production in over a hundred years of Just To Get Married, a romantic comedy by renowned suffragette Cecily Hamilton opens at the Finborough Theatre for a four week limited season on Tuesday, 25 July 2017 (Press Nights: Thursday, 27 July and Friday, 28 July 2017 at 7.30pm). Approaching her 30th birthday in early 20th Century England, the clever and poor Georgiana Vicary is waiting for the handsome but shy Adam Lankester to propose to her. Her friends expect her to get married, her adoptive parents expect it and more importantly, she expects it of herself – but will her conscience allow it? From a time when marriage was a socio-economic - rather than just a romantic – decision, Just to Get Married asks how we can have a marriage of equals when the genders are unequal. Written by actress, journalist, playwright and suffragette Cicely Hamilton, and first produced at the Little Theatre in London in 1910, Just to Get Married was last produced in the UK at Birmingham Rep in 1918, and is directed by Melissa Dunne, founder of the acclaimed gender blind play festival XY.

  • The Role of Epitexts in Drama Translation 1. Introduction in Recent Decades There Has Been a Growing Curiosity in the Role of P
    The role of epitexts in drama translation Jorge Braga Riera, Complutense University of Madrid ABSTRACT In recent years, the notion of paratranslation has grown in Translation Studies, particularly in the literary field. Nevertheless, little attention has been paid to the effect that paratextual components — peritextual and epitextual — (Genette 1997) may have on the rendering of theatrical texts into another language, especially if these texts are intended for performance. This article will seek to deal with the issue of paratranslation in the theatre, and more specifically with the potential influence of epitexts on the reception of a particular stage play in a different culture, as well as with the significance of the figure of the translator in the process. Two recent British performances of the Spanish classic Life is a Dream, based on two different translations, have been used by way of example. The results will show how reviews, webpages, videos, posters, flyers and programmes can add to the manner in which a particular play is perceived in the eyes of its target audiences, and to what extent the final outcome may be felt as part of the recipient theatrical culture. KEYWORDS Paratranslation, paratext, epitext, theatre translation, Spanish drama. 1. Introduction In recent decades there has been a growing curiosity in the role of paratexts in the various disciplines, as well as in their cultural, ideological and, of course, commercial implications. Much of this interest is based on the work of French theorist Gérard Genette, who defines paratext as those elements in a published work that accompany the text, constituting “a ‘vestibule’ that offers the world at large the possibility of either stepping inside or turning back” (1997: 2).
