Eric Kofi Abrefa plays Tristan Frey, Christine Entwisle will play Lorna James, Tim McMullan will play Toby and Kate O’Flynn will play Connie Hall. Winner of the Critics’ Circle Award for Best New Play when it opened at the National Theatre in 2012, The Effect places modern medicine under the microscope, examining the fallout from a collision between love and science. Connie and Tristan meet; symptoms develop. Racing hearts. Lost appetites. Erratic emotions. Is this the frenzy of falling in love, or simply side effects from the new anti- depressant drug they're testing? Addiction comes hard and fast. But have the clinicians running the trial lost control? Eric Kofi Abrefa most recently starred in the film Blue Story, directed by Rapman. Other films include Jurassic World and Fury alongside Brad Pitt. On stage, Eric played Jean opposite Vanessa Kirby in Julie at the National Theatre where his credits also include A Taste of Honey alongside Kate O’Flynn.

  • Sarah Daniels's Masterpieces and Anthony Neilson's the Censor Luc
    Fall 2010 75 Drama and Pornography: Sarah Daniels’s Masterpieces and Anthony Neilson’s The Censor Luc Gilleman There is something awesome about the way that pornography can move our bodies, even when we don’t want it to and even if we don’t approve of the images that make it happen. —Carol J. Clover1 Two Plays about Pornography and Censorship According to British playwright David Hare, drama invites the audience to compare what is said with what is shown, therefore allowing the audience to arrive at an independent judgment: Judgment is at the heart of the theatre. A man steps forward and informs the audience of his intention to lifelong fidelity to his wife, while his hand, even as he speaks, drifts at random to the body of another woman. The most basic dramatic situation you can imagine; the gap between what he says he is and what we see him to be opens up, and in the gap we see something that makes theatre unique; that it exposes the difference between what a man says and what he does.2 As a textual and visual medium, drama is indeed particularly good at exposing lies and illusions. In Hare’s example, the visual trumps the textual, perhaps in accordance with a socialist playwright’s notions of objectivity. After all, seeing is believing. Why is it, then, that playwrights and directors find it hard to determine what the audience sees? Far from offering a neutral space for scientific inquiry where the audience is offered the means of empirical verification, theatre draws attention to the complexity of representation.

  • Pain and Violence in Three Contemporary English Plays
    T. C. İstanbul Üniversitesi Sosyal Bilimler Enstitüsü İngiliz Dili ve Edebiyatı Bilim Dalı Yüksek Lisans Tezi Pain and Violence in Three Contemporary English Plays ÖZLEM KARADA Ğ 2501050048 TEZ DANI ŞMANI YRD. DOÇ. DR. CANAN ŞAVKAY İSTANBUL 2008 Pain and Violence in Three Contemporary English Plays Özlem Karada ğ ÖZ Bu çalı şmanın amacı, 20. yüzyılın ikinci yarısında tiyatroda ortaya çıkan Absürd tiyatro, Politik tiyatro ve politik sonrası olarak adlandırılan “in-yer-face” akımlarının önemli örnekleri olan Samuel Beckett’in Endgame , Edward Bond’un Lear ve Anthony Neilson’ın Penetrator ba şlıklı oyunlarında şiddet ve acı ö ğelerinin kullanılı şını incelemektir. Şiddet ve acı üzerine kuramların ve 19. ve 20. yüzyıl dü şünürlerinin görü şlerinin uygulanmasıyla, daha önceki tiyatro akımlarının aksine, 20. yüzyıl tarihi arka planının da etkisiyle, şiddetin sahnede giderek görünür hale geldi ği, oyun ki şilerinin birbirleriyle gergin ve öfke dolu ili şkilerinin oldu ğu ve karakterlerin ba şkalarına acı çektirmekle beraber, acı çeken ki şi konumunda oldukları ortaya çıkmaktadır. iii Pain and Violence in Three Contemporary English Plays Özlem Karada ğ ABSTRACT This study purports to trace the use of violence and pain in Samuel Beckett’s Endgame , Edward Bond’s Lear , and Anthony Neilson’s Penetrator which are the important examples of the movements that arose in the second half of the twentieth century; the Theatre of the Absurd, Political Theatre and “in-yer-face” which is also called post-political theatre. With the application of theories on violence and pain, and under the light of the thoughts of nineteenth and twentieth century thinkers it is revealed that violence, contrary to older movements in drama, with the contribution of the historical background of the twentieth century, gets gradually visible on the stage, the relationships between characters are tense and full of frustration, and as well as making others suffer, the characters themselves are also the ones who suffer.

  • The Experiential Theatre of Anthony Neilson and the Wonderful World of Dissocia
    SEFAD, 2018 (40): 23-32 e-ISSN: 2458-908X DOI Number: https://dx.doi.org/10.21497/sefad.514492 The Experiential Theatre of Anthony Neilson and The Wonderful World of Dissocia Assist. Prof. Dr. Ahmet Gökhan Biçer Manisa Celal Bayar University Faculty of Science and Letters Department of English Language and Literature [email protected] Abstract Experiential theatre goes beyond the boundaries of dramatic theatre by allowing the audience to experience the event performed on stage and create their own meaning and interpretation of conflicting phenomena, such as security and violence. As one of the important representatives of this type of English theatre in the 1990s, the playwright Anthony Neilson, has attracted substantial critical attention for his trenchant portrayal of violence in all its bareness that inevitably comes out within the practices of daily life. With one of his most important plays to date, The Wonderful World of Dissocia (2004), Neilson portrays experiential theatricality of states of mind while exploring the connection between the internal and external reality of a self. By doing so, Neilson pushes the framework of experiential theatre to a new extreme. This paper scrutinizes his contribution to the practice of experiential theatre within the context of violence and identity politics. Keywords: Anthony Neilson, experiential theatre, violence, identity politics, The Wonderful World of Dissocia. Anthony Neilson’un Deneyimsel Tiyatrosu ve Disosya Harikalar Dünyası Öz Deneyimsel tiyatro, izleyicilere sahnede temsil edilen olayı deneyimlemelerine, onların, güvenlik ve şiddet gibi çatışan olaylarla ilgili kendi anlamlandırma ve yorumlama süreçlerini oluşturmalarına olanak tanıyarak dramatik tiyatronun sınırlarını aşmaktadır. 1990’lı yıllar İngiliz tiyatrosunun bu türdeki önemli temsilcilerinden Anthony Neilson, kaçınılmaz olarak günlük yaşam deneyimlerinden kaynaklanan şiddet olgusunu bütün çıplaklığıyla ve keskin biçimde betimleyişi yönünden önemli eleştiriler almıştır.
