  • We Will Rock You”
    “We Will Rock You” By Queen and Ben Elton At the Hippodrome Theatre through October 20 By Princess Appau WE ARE THE CHAMPIONS When one walks into the Hippodrome Theatre to view “We Will Rock You,” the common expectation is a compilation of classic rock and roll music held together by a simple plot. This jukebox musical, however, surpasses those expectations by entwining a powerful plot with clever updating of the original 2002 musical by Queen and Ben Elton. The playwright Elton has surrounded Queen’s songs with a plot that highlights the familiar conflict of our era: youths being sycophants to technology. This comic method is not only the key to the show’s success but also the antidote to any fear that the future could become this. The futuristic storyline is connected to many of Queen’s lyrics that foreshadow the youthful infatuation with technology and the monotonous lifestyle that results. This approach is emphasized by the use of a projector displaying programmed visuals of a futuristic setting throughout the show. The opening scene transitions into the Queen song “Radio Gaga,” which further affirms this theme. The scene includes a large projection of hundreds of youth, clones to the cast performing on stage. The human cast and virtual cast are clothed alike in identical white tops and shorts or skirts; they sing and dance in sublime unison, defining the setting of the show and foreshadowing the plot. Unlike most jukebox musicals the plot is not a biographical story of the performers whose music is featured. “We Will Rock You” is set 300 years in the future on the iPlanet when individuality and creativity are shunned and conformity reigns.

  • Theatricality, Voyeurism, and Molière's Misanthrope: Yesterday and Today
    Spring 2004 _41 Theatricality, Voyeurism, and Molière's Misanthrope: Yesterday and Today Jesse Dickson The pleasures of eyeing other people are in many ways common to the seventeenth century and the present, although certain of yesterday's pleasures have tumed into today's embarrassments. In this light, I will view the theatrical economy of Molière's 1666 The Misanthrope in performance, from the perspective of the actors and then of the spectators, to compare their visual relationships, then and today. I share the view of many literary historians that in his satire of both aristocratic and bourgeois orders Molière sets his sights on their various theatrical behaviors, "the histrionic bases of individual and social identity.'" Indeed, The Misanthrope shows different characters play acting for other, spectating characters, and makes us laugh at the narcissistic and often hollow society of the theatrum mundi. However, in this literary view the characters strut about within the confines of the stage, behind the footlights, and the milieu they portray is mostly outside the theater walls, in court and salon. This perspective is somewhat constricting for my purpose. I propose to shift the theatrical frame by focusing on the visual relations between the actors and their immediate audience, relations peculiar to Molière's Palais Royal Theater in the latter part of the seventeenth century. The goal, and my desire, are to reestablish the theatrical dynamic of the period in its specificity, having its own pleasures, its own psychological and ideological
