Two years ago the RSC played its first-ever repertoire season outside the U.K. here at BAM, giving American audiences the opportunity to see several productions from our current repertory, direct from Stratford and London and with their original casts. We are delighted to be back here at what we hope will become another of our regular venues around the world. Once again, all the productions you are seeing in this season are presented exactly as they played in the Royal Shakespeare Theatre and The Other Place in Stratford-upon-Avon, and with their original casts. The three productions we have brought to BAM this year represent a cross-section of one of our most successful Stratford seasons ever. Michael Boyd's witty, rude, and passionate A Midsummer Night's Dream has been compared to Peter Brook's legendary 1970 production, while Schiller's rarely performed Don Carlos emerges, in Gale Edwards' fast-paced production, as a gripping political thriller. And it's particularly apt that our third play is by IS. Eliot, an Anglo-American whose work blended the cultures of his adopted Britain and native New England just as it fused poetry and drama. The Family Reunion is an uncannily modern work , as startling now as it was for its first appearance in 1939, and a directorial challenge which I very much enjoyed . This year's ensemble encompasses a great breadth of acting experience-newcomers like Rupert Penry-Jones and Zoe Waites alongside long-term members like John Woodvine, Josette Simon, and Ray Fearon, who have played several seasons with the company. This blending of youth and experience is what has always given the RSC its particular character and is the heart of a true ensemble, that creative and supportive environment out of which comes our best work. I hope you enjoy tonight's performance, and that we'll have the pleasure of your company again, whether it's in the U.S. or in our own theaters in Stratford or London. Adrian Noble Artistic Director 19 Don Carlos, heir to King Philip II of Spain, must conceal his passion for his stepmother, Elizabeth of Valois, who was originally intended to be his bride but was instead married to his father. When his childhood friend Rodrigo, Marquis of Posa , arrives back at court, Carlos confesses his anguish and Posa arranges a brief meeting for him with the Queen. She, however, makes clear the impos­ sibility of the situation and appeals to his sense of honor and patriotism. The King is alarmed at the brewing discontent in the Spanish Netherlands and plans to send forces to put down the rebellion . He is also concerned at the unstable behavior of his son, who, spies tell him, is ambitious and perhaps a threat. Inspired by the Queen, Carlos determines to espouse the cause of the Spanish Netherlands, in which Posa is already active. Attempting a reconciliation with his father, he begs to be put in charge of the Netherlands expedition but Philip refuses and instead appoints the ruthless Duke of Alba. Nevertheless, Philip is encouraged by his son's improved behavior. Carlos receives a summons which he believes to be from the Queen but, arriving at the rendezvous, discovers that it was actually from Princess Eboli , who confesses her love for him. She also admits that she has been propositioned by the King and gives him a letter. Touched by her plight, Carlos expresses affection but she misunderstands his sympathy and realizes only too late that what she had taken for Carlos' attentions to herself were actually directed at the Queen . Rejected , she takes revenge by denouncing Carlos and the Queen to the Duke of Alba and Domingo, the King's confessor. Already suspicious of Carlos, they plot with Eboli to arouse the King's suspicions. Posa warns Carlos of the danger from Princess Eboli , but he refuses to acknowledge the threat. Philip has learned of the Queen's supposed betrayal through letters and a locket stolen from her chamber: Alba and Domingo play on his fears. In his isolation, Philip casts about for someone he can trust and remembers the Marquis of Posa , whom he knows by reputation. Summoned to the King, Posa dares to speak out passionately of honor, democracy, and freedom . Impressed with his courage and idealism, Philip makes him his confidant and asks him to discover the truth about the rumors abroad in the court. Posa plans for Carlos to escape to the Netherlands and, from his position in the King's favor, embarks on a daring plan to protect Carlos by deflecting suspicion onto himself. However, Carlos joins in the general distrust of Posa's new position of power. Treacherous letters are discovered as intrigue follows intrigue. Having obtained a signed arrest warrant from the King, Posa has Carlos arrested and, as the net closes around them, visits him in prison to explain his subterfuge and effect Carlos' escape. As he does so, he is shot by the king's guard. With riots threatening Madrid, Carlos plans to bid farewell to the queen before making his escape to the Netherlands. Philip, torn between kingship and his feelings for his son, summons the Grand Inquisitor, who reminds him of his duty. The King makes his decision. 20 bI i~tory of tho The Royal Shakespeare Company, then and now ... The first permanent theater dedicated to the performance of Shakespeare's plays in Stratford, a Victorian gothic building seating 800 people, opened in 1879 with a week-long summer festival which soon grew into regular spring and summer seasons. In 1925 almost 50 years of excellence were recognized by the granting of a Royal Charter. A year later the old theater was almost completely destroyed by fire but, after a worldwide fund-raising campaign, the present building, designed by Elisabeth Scott, was opened by the then Prince of Wales in 1932. During the next 30 years, under a succession of visionary and creative artistic directors, the Shakespeare Memorial Theatre company went from strength to strength, attracting such stars as Donald Wolfit, John Gielgud, Peggy Ashcroft, Anthony Quayle, Vivien Leigh, and Laurence Olivier. Tours of Europe, Russia, and the United States, as well as guest appearances by overseas stars, including Paul Robeson and Charles Laughton, helped to establish the company on the international stage. In 1960, under the directorship of Peter Hall, the company took its most exciting leap forward.

  • Cambridge Companion Shakespeare on Film
    This page intentionally left blank Film adaptations of Shakespeare’s plays are increasingly popular and now figure prominently in the study of his work and its reception. This lively Companion is a collection of critical and historical essays on the films adapted from, and inspired by, Shakespeare’s plays. An international team of leading scholars discuss Shakespearean films from a variety of perspectives:as works of art in their own right; as products of the international movie industry; in terms of cinematic and theatrical genres; and as the work of particular directors from Laurence Olivier and Orson Welles to Franco Zeffirelli and Kenneth Branagh. They also consider specific issues such as the portrayal of Shakespeare’s women and the supernatural. The emphasis is on feature films for cinema, rather than television, with strong cov- erage of Hamlet, Richard III, Macbeth, King Lear and Romeo and Juliet. A guide to further reading and a useful filmography are also provided. Russell Jackson is Reader in Shakespeare Studies and Deputy Director of the Shakespeare Institute, University of Birmingham. He has worked as a textual adviser on several feature films including Shakespeare in Love and Kenneth Branagh’s Henry V, Much Ado About Nothing, Hamlet and Love’s Labour’s Lost. He is co-editor of Shakespeare: An Illustrated Stage History (1996) and two volumes in the Players of Shakespeare series. He has also edited Oscar Wilde’s plays.

Lately he has been seeing and hearing strange things late at night in his house. He isn't sure if he is simply having terrifying nightmares or if his house is haunted. Each year, the seaside town where Michael lives hosts an international literary festival, attracting writers from all over the world. Michael works as a volunteer for the festival and is assigned the attractive Lena Morelle (Iben Hjejle), an author of books about ghosts and the supernatural, to look after. They become friendly and he eagerly tells her of his experiences. For the first time he has met someone who can accept the reality of what has been happening to him. However, Lena’s attention is pulled elsewhere. She has come to the festival at the bidding of world-renowned novelist Nicholas Holden (Aidan Quinn), with whom she had a brief affair the previous year. He has fallen in love with Lena and is going through a turbulent time, eager to leave his wife to be with her.

Rabillard, Supervisor (Department of English) Dr. Janelle Jenstad, Departmental Member (Department of English) Dr. Michael Best, Departmental Member (Department of English) Dr. Annalee Lepp, Outside Member (Department of Women’s Studies) Abstract The temptation to meddle with Shakespeare has proven irresistible to playwrights since the Restoration and has inspired some of the most reviled and most respected works of theatre. Nahum Tate’s tragic-comic King Lear (1681) was described as an execrable piece of dementation, but played on London stages for one hundred and fifty years. David Garrick was equally tempted to adapt King Lear in the eighteenth century, as were the burlesque playwrights of the nineteenth. In the twentieth century, the meddling continued with works like King Lear’s Wife (1913) by Gordon Bottomley and Dead Letters (1910) by Maurice Baring.

  • Shakespeare on Film, Video & Stage
    William Shakespeare on Film, Video and Stage Titles in bold red font with an asterisk (*) represent the crème de la crème – first choice titles in each category. These are the titles you’ll probably want to explore first. Titles in bold black font are the second- tier – outstanding films that are the next level of artistry and craftsmanship. Once you have experienced the top tier, these are where you should go next. They may not represent the highest achievement in each genre, but they are definitely a cut above the rest. Finally, the titles which are in a regular black font constitute the rest of the films within the genre. I would be the first to admit that some of these may actually be worthy of being “ranked” more highly, but it is a ridiculously subjective matter.

    European Modernism and the Resident Theatre Movement: The Transformation of American Theatre between 1950 and 1970 Sarah Guthu A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Washington 2013 Reading Committee: Thomas E Postlewait, Chair Sarah Bryant-Bertail Stefka G Mihaylova Program Authorized to Offer Degree: School of Drama © Copyright 2013 Sarah Guthu University of Washington Abstract European Modernism and the Resident Theatre Movement: The Transformation of American Theatre between 1950 and 1970 Sarah Guthu Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Dr. Thomas E Postlewait School of Drama This dissertation offers a cultural history of the arrival of the second wave of European modernist drama in America in the postwar period, 1950-1970. European modernist drama developed in two qualitatively distinct stages, and these two stages subsequently arrived in the United States in two distinct waves. The first stage of European modernist drama, characterized predominantly by the genres of naturalism and realism, emerged in Europe during the four decades from the 1890s to the 1920s. This first wave of European modernism reached the United States in the late 1910s and throughout the 1920s, coming to prominence through productions in New York City. The second stage of European modernism dates from 1930 through the 1960s and is characterized predominantly by the absurdist and epic genres. Unlike the first wave, the dramas of the second wave of European modernism were not first produced in New York. Instead, these plays were often given their premieres in smaller cities across the United States: San Francisco, Seattle, Cleveland, Hartford, Boston, and New Haven, in the regional theatres which were rapidly proliferating across the United States.
