As we write, our production of Twelfth Night is touring, free for all, to nineteen Chicago neighborhoods; rehearsals have just begun for Part Two of Barbara’s epic history cycle, Tug of War; and today, our yearlong international festival—Shakespeare 400 Chicago—welcomes the incomparable Jonathan Pryce as Shylock in The Merchant of Venice from Shakespeare’s Globe. We are excited to continue our relationship with this renowed theater, where Barbara has long served on The Globe Council. The Merchant of Venice marks the third time a Globe production has toured to CST’s stages, beginning in 2003 with its “original practices” production of Twelfth Night, starring Academy Award-winner Mark Rylance as Olivia, and again in 2014 with its ambitious world-circling tour of Hamlet, presented in 197 countries. In 2014, CST’s World’s Stage series welcomed Kneehigh’s production of Tristan and Yseult directed by Emma Rice, now the Globe’s artistic director. The sole North American theater invited to participate in the 2012 Cultural Olympiad “Globe to Globe” festival, CST debuted on the Globe’s stage with its production of Othello: The Remix, created with the Q Brothers. This continuing cultural exchange is a highlight of the Theater’s mission to bring the world’s great theater artists to Chicago and Chicago Shakespeare to the world. Over the course of 2016, we will continue to present offerings from the UK, as well as China, India, Mexico and Poland. Here’s to the season ahead! n Barbara Gaines Criss Henderson Steve Solomon Artistic Director Executive Director Chair, Board of Directors Carl and Marilynn Thoma Endowed Chair 4 Summer 2016 | The Merchant of Venice www.chicagoshakes.com 5 INTRODUCING THE YARD AT CHICAGO SHAKESPEARE The Yard will be Chicago Shakespeare’s third stage.

  • "Infidelity" As an "Act of Love": Patrick Marber's After Miss Julie (1995) As a Rewrite of August Strindberg's Miss Julie (1888)
    "Infidelity" as an "Act of Love": Patrick Marber's After Miss Julie (1995) as a Rewrite of August Strindberg's Miss Julie (1888). مسـرحيــة After Miss Julie للكاتب البريطاني باتريك ماربر كإعادة إبداع لمسرحية Miss Julie للكاتب السويدي أوجست ستريندبرج Dr. Reda Shehata associate professor Department of English - Zagazig University د. رضا شحاته أستاذ مساعد بقسم اللغة اﻹنجليزية كلية اﻵداب - جامعة الزقازيق "Infidelity" as an "Act of Love" Patrick Marber's After Miss Julie (1995) "Infidelity" as an "Act of Love": Patrick Marber's After Miss Julie (1995) as a Rewrite of August Strindberg's Miss Julie (1888). Abstract Depending on Linda Hutcheon's notion of adaptation as "a creative and interpretative act of appropriation" and David Lane's concept of the updated "context of the story world in which the characters are placed," this paper undertakes a critical examination of Patrick Marber's After Miss Julie (1995) as a creative rewrite of August Strindberg's Miss Julie (1888). The play appears to be both a faithful adaptation and appropriation of its model, reflecting "matches" for certain features of it and "mismatches" for others. So in spite of Marber's different language, his adjustment of the "temporal and spatial dimensions" of the original, and his several additions and omissions, he retains the same theme, characters, and—to a considerable extent, plot. To some extent, he manages to stick to his master's brand of Naturalism by retaining the special form of conflict upon which the action is based. In addition to its depiction of the failure of post-war class system, it shows strong relevancy to the spirit of the 1990s, both in its implicit critique of some aspects of feminism (especially its call for gender equality) and its bold address of the masculine concerns of that period.

  • Eugenie Pastor-Phd Thesis Moving Intimacies
    MOVING INTIMACIES: A COMPARATIVE STUDY OF “PHYSICAL THEATRES” IN FRANCE AND THE UNITED KINGDOM EUGÉNIE FLEUR PASTOR ROYAL HOLLOWAY, UNIVERSITY OF LONDON DEPARTMENT OF DRAMA AND THEATRE A Thesis submitted as a partial fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Ph.D. August 2014 1 DECLARATION OF AUTHORSHIP I, Eugénie Fleur Pastor, hereby declare that this thesis and the work presented in it is entirely my own. Where I have consulted the work of others, this is always clearly stated. Signed: ______________________ Date: 7 August 2014 2 ABSTRACT This thesis is an exploration of movement in contemporary “physical theatres”. I develop a renewed understanding of “physical theatres” as embodied framework to experience both spectatorship and theatre-making. I analyse how, in this type of performance, movement blurs distinctions between the intimate and the collective, the inside and the outside, thus challenging definitions of intimacy and tactility. The thesis consists of a comparative study of examples of “physical theatres”, in the 21st century, in France and in the UK. The comparison highlights that “physical theatres” practitioners are under-represented in France, a reason I attribute in part to a terminological absence in the French language. The four case studies range from itinerant company Escale and their athletic embodiment of a political ideal to Jean Lambert-wild’s theatre of “micro-movement”, from Told by an Idiot’s position in a traditional theatre context in the UK to my own work within Little Bulb Theatre, where physicality is virtuosic in its non- virtuosity. For each case study, I use a methodology that echoes this exploration of movement and reflects my position within each fieldwork.
