Iwas Lucky to Be in London in May and Catch
The Scream REBECCA NEMSER I was lucky to be in London in May and catch Fram , Tony Harrison’s latest play,* in its short but spectacu - lar run at the Olivier Theatre at London’s National Theatre. The play, all in rhyming verse, begins in Westminster Abbey, with moonlight shining through the stained glass of the great Rose Window, casting a reflection of Aeschylus on the cold stone floor. In walks the ghost of Gilbert Murray (Jeff Rawle), rising up from his grave and carrying a tragic mask. Murray, the early-twentieth-century Oxford professor and classicist, was also a humanitarian, deeply involved in the League of Nations and the United Nations and co-founder of Oxfam. But since his death fifty years ago, his once-admired verse translations of Aeschylus and Euripides have been scorned, and the world he tried to save has been ravaged by even more unimaginable horrors. So instead of decomposing in his urn, he has spent his afterlife composing this play. He calls up the spirit of Sybil Thorndike (Sian Thomas, as splendid as the character she plays), the actress who tri - umphed on the London stage as Clytemnestra, Hecuba, and Medea in Murray’s once wildly popular versions, and whisks her off to the Olivier stalls of the National Theatre—for Fram is not just a play within a play, but a theater within a theater. Most of all, it is a poem about poetry. The hero of the play is Fridtjof Nansen (Jasper Britton), Murray’s long-ago friend (and admirer of his translations)— the dashing Norwegian scientist, artist, and Arctic explorer *Tony Harrison, Fram . -
Shakespeare in Production
Cambridge University Press 978-0-521-77338-6 — The Merchant of Venice William Shakespeare , Edited by Charles Edelman Frontmatter More Information SHAKESPEARE IN PRODUCTION THE MERCHANT OF VENICE For over four hundred years, in every country where Shakespeare’s plays have been performed, The Merchant of Venice has aroused controversy and excitement. This edition is the first to offer a comprehensive account of the Merchant in performance. Charles Edelman’s introduction challenges many of the myths and preconceptions associated with the play, and shows how historical events and cultural attitudes have shaped actors’ interpretations and audi- ence responses. The commentary, printed alongside the text, describes how different actors, directors and designers have approached each character and episode on stage, film and television, from the first performances in the s down to the present day. The extraordinary variety of The Merchant of Venice in production, from England to the United States, from Germany to Israel, from Canada to Aus- tralia to China, presented here in a clear and original way, will give every reader new and different insights into one of Shakespeare’s most powerful but troubling plays. © in this web service Cambridge University Press www.cambridge.org Cambridge University Press 978-0-521-77338-6 — The Merchant of Venice William Shakespeare , Edited by Charles Edelman Frontmatter More Information SHAKESPEARE IN PRODUCTION : .

An Interview with Michael Maloney
An Interview with Michael Maloney An Interview with Michael Maloney Michael Maloney has played a wide range of classical roles over many years for some of the most famous theatre companies in the UK. At the Royal National Theatre, he has played Benjamin Britten and Lewis Carroll, as well as Hal in Henry IV parts 1 and 2. For the Royal Shakespeare Company (RSC), Michael has played Romeo in Romeo and Juliet and Edgar in King Lear, under the Japanese director Yukio Ninagawa. He has also played Hamlet twice in various theatres around the country and at the Barbican, the second production of which was for Yukio Ninagawa once again. On film, Michael played Rosencrantz in Mel Gibson’s version of Hamlet. He has also worked on many occasions with Kenneth Branagh: he played Laertes in Branagh’s version of Hamlet and took the lead role in Branagh’s film In the Bleak Midwinter, about a group of actors putting on Hamlet in a church hall. He has also starred alongside Branagh as the Dauphin in Shakespeare’s Henry V and played Roderigo in Othello. Michael has appeared in lead and supporting roles in more than 150 television shows and 200 radio programmes. He is best known for his role in Anthony Minghella’s Truly Madly Deeply and more recently for his roles in the English films Notes on a Scandal and Young Victoria. Michael plays the part of Macbeth in the Macmillan Readers series. When did you decide you wanted to be an actor and why did you decide this?

George Bernard Shaw 1 George Bernard Shaw
George Bernard Shaw 1 George Bernard Shaw George Bernard Shaw Shaw in 1936 Born 26 July 1856 Dublin, Ireland Died 2 November 1950 (aged 94) Ayot St Lawrence, Hertfordshire, England Occupation Playwright, critic, political activist Nationality Irish Alma mater Wesley College, Dublin Genres Satire, black comedy Literary movement Ibsenism, naturalism Notable award(s) Nobel Prize in Literature 1925 Academy Award for Writing Adapted Screenplay 1938 Pygmalion Signature George Bernard Shaw (26 July 1856 – 2 November 1950) was an Irish playwright and a co-founder of the London School of Economics. Although his first profitable writing was music and literary criticism, in which capacity he wrote many highly articulate pieces of journalism, his main talent was for drama, and he wrote more than 60 plays. He was also an essayist, novelist and short story writer. Nearly all his writings address prevailing social problems, but have a vein of comedy which makes their stark themes more palatable. Issues which engaged Shaw's attention included education, marriage, religion, government, health care, and class privilege. He was most angered by what he perceived as the exploitation of the working class. An ardent socialist, Shaw wrote many brochures and speeches for the Fabian Society. He became an accomplished orator in the furtherance of its George Bernard Shaw 2 causes, which included gaining equal rights for men and women, alleviating abuses of the working class, rescinding private ownership of productive land, and promoting healthy lifestyles. For a short time he was active in local politics, serving on the London County Council. In 1898, Shaw married Charlotte Payne-Townshend, a fellow Fabian, whom he survived. -
Dare, Always Dare 2
DARE, ALWAYS DARE ‘The Old Vic has had the most glorious life and that life should not be allowed to diminish in any way’ Dame Judi Dench, Actor 200 YEARS OF ADVENTURE From Lorenzo de’ Medici to Catherine the Great, great art has relied on great patrons. Their support has been critical in enabling genius and talent to flourish. As Winston Churchill wrote, ‘We shape our buildings, and afterwards our buildings shape us’. There is something special about being part of the history of The Old Vic; a great British institution and, thanks to Lilian Baylis, the birthplace of so many of the great performing arts PHOTO CREDIT:PHOTO NAME organisations of our times: the Royal Ballet, Sadler’s Wells, the English National Opera and the National Theatre. The theatre that began life as a music hall, a notorious drinking den, a temperance tavern and an opera house went on to become the home of great acting, dance, musical extravaganzas, vaudeville and spectacle. Many of our great actors have appeared here, including Laurence Olivier, Sybil Thorndike, John Gielgud and Ralph Richardson. Others, like Judi Dench, Michael Gambon and Maggie Smith first made their names here. Olivier led the first National Theatre Company at The Old Vic and later, Kevin Spacey was Artistic Director of The Old Vic Theatre Company. The Old Vic’s life has been punctuated with extraordinary acts of philanthropy. In 1982, after the National had moved to the South Clockwise from top left: Bank, The Old Vic was saved for the nation by Ed Mirvish of Toronto.
