  • Plays and Pinot: Bedroom Farce
    Plays and Pinot: Bedroom Farce Synopsis Trevor and Susannah, whose marriage is on the rocks, inflict their miseries on their nearest and dearest: three couples whose own relationships are tenuous at best. Taking place sequentially in the three beleaguered couples’ bedrooms during one endless Saturday night of co-dependence and dysfunction, beds, tempers, and domestic order are ruffled, leading all the players to a hilariously touching epiphany. About the Playwright Alan Ayckbourn, in full Sir Alan Ayckbourn, (born April 12, 1939, London, England), is a successful and prolific British playwright, whose works—mostly farces and comedies—deal with marital and class conflicts and point out the fears and weaknesses of the English lower-middle class. He wrote more than 80 plays and other entertainments, most of which were first staged at the Stephen Joseph Theatre in Scarborough, Yorkshire, England. At age 15 Ayckbourn acted in school productions of William Shakespeare, and he began his professional acting career with the Stephen Joseph Company in Scarborough. When Ayckbourn wanted better roles to play, Joseph told him to write a part for himself in a play that the company would mount if it had merit. Ayckbourn produced his earliest plays in 1959–61 under the pseudonym Roland Allen. His plays—many of which were performed years before they were published—included Relatively Speaking (1968), Mixed Doubles: An Entertainment on Marriage (1970), How the Other Half Loves (1971), the trilogy The Norman Conquests (1973), Absurd Person Singular (1974), Intimate Exchanges (1985), Mr. A’s Amazing Maze Plays (1989), Body Language (1990), Invisible Friends (1991), Communicating Doors (1995), Comic Potential (1999), The Boy Who Fell into a Book (2000), and the trilogy Damsels in Distress (2002).

  • Psychosocial Alienation in a Brief History of Women by Alan Ayckbourn
    Volume 8, Issue 8, Aug 2021, p. 68-81 Article History: Received Article Information 9/08/2021 Received in revised !Article Type: Research Article form 17/08/2021 ! This article was checked by iThenticate. Available online 28/08/2021 PSYCHOSOCIAL ALIENATION IN A BRIEF HISTORY OF WOMEN BY ALAN AYCKBOURN May Mohammed Baqer 1 Sahar Salam Abdullah 2 Abstract Psychosocial Alienation is a modern concept that arises from the capitalist and materialistic conceptions of individuals. The ever- growing competitive nature of domestic societies crystallised the concept in its modern form. The intensity of the rapid changes in the urbanised societies prevents the individuals from exploring their inner selves. Thus, a new generation is created with an alienation crisis which is reflected inward towards the self and outwards toward society. Alan Ayckbourn (1939), A British playwright, presents Alienated characters inspired by his life on and off stage. He explores their Alienation and their path toward recovery and self-realization. A Brief History of Women (2017) Ayckbourn explores the depth of the individual psyche from inside out in a refreshing way. Keywords: Psychosocial Alienation, the self, feminism, isolation. 1.Introduction Social Alienation is a worldwide pandemic. It is the psychological disease of the postmodern society. The cities, in particular, face this phenomenon more often than the outskirts of countries because of the overpopulation. More people in one place means less space for individual creativity. Thus, nothing is important, and values are decreasing in priority. Another factor that may be a significant influence is the variety of distraction in the postmodern world; the more distraction there is, the less grounded the individual is.

    Cambridge University Press 978-0-521-86606-4 - The Cambridge Companion to August Wilson Edited by Christopher Bigsby Excerpt More information 1 CHRISTOPHER BIGSBY August Wilson: the ground on which he stood I am one of those warrior spirits. The battle since the first African set foot on the continent of North America has been a battle for the affirmation of the value and worth of one’s being in the face of this society that says you’re worthless. ...AsAfricans prior to coming over here, they existed, and they were the center. Everything revolved around them in their world view. Over here, all of that has been taken and stripped away. So I say, ‘Let’s look at it. The world is right here in this back yard.’ There is no idea that cannot be contained by black life. We have the entire world here...italldepends on where you’re standing...I’mstanding over here. August Wilson1 On 2 October 2005 August Wilson died at the Swedish Medical Centre in Seattle. It was just eight months after the death of another American playwright, Arthur Miller. They came out of different worlds. Miller was descended from immigrants on both sides of the family, Jews who went to America to escape persecution and seek their fortune. And if they sub- sequently lost the fortune they made, they nonetheless never lost belief in the system that had redeemed them from a far worse fate. To be sure, they encountered prejudice, but even so they slid with some ease into an Amer- ica which swiftly bore the impress of European Jews as they emerged as entrepreneurs, artists, scientists and intellectuals surprisingly ready to inter- pret America to itself.

  • Caryl Churchill's Fourth New Play Imp Announced
    PRESS RELEASE Friday 7 June 2019 CARYL CHURCHILL’S FOURTH NEW PLAY IMP ANNOUNCED Following last month’s announcement of new work which included details of three new Caryl Churchill plays, the Royal Court Theatre announces today a fourth play, Imp, just received from the celebrated writer. Glass. Kill. Bluebeard. Imp. will be directed by James Macdonald and will run in the Jerwood Theatre Downstairs Wednesday 18 September 2019 – Saturday 12 October 2019 with press night on Wednesday 25 September 2019, 7pm. Artistic Director of the Royal Court Theatre Vicky Featherstone said; “As Artistic Director of the Royal Court the precious moment when a play by Caryl Churchill arrives fully formed, breaking new ground and utterly surprising us is what this job is all about. I thought the delight I felt when she sent Glass, Kill and Bluebeard would be unsurpassed. Imagine then the joy when two weeks ago the wonderful Imp dropped into my inbox. So now we have four new and extraordinary plays by Caryl in our autumn season. Not three.” Set design by Miriam Buether, costume design by Nicky Gillibrand, lighting design by Jack Knowles and sound design by Christopher Shutt. “I can see her just. Most people can’t see her at all.” A girl made of glass. Gods and murders. A serial killer’s friends. And a secret in a bottle. Four stories by Caryl Churchill. Caryl Churchill’s most recent play Escaped Alone, opened at the Royal Court to critical acclaim and transferred to New York. Many of her plays which first premiered at the Royal Court are now considered modern classics including Top Girls, A Number and Far Away.
