Published by SciPress Ltd, Switzerland, 2016 David Hare’s Stuff Happens A Dramatic Journey of American War on Iraq Elaff Ganim Salih1, Hardev Kaur2, Mohamad Fleih Hassan3 Faculty of Modern Languages and Communication, Universiti Putra Malaysia, Serdang, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia 1*[email protected] [email protected] [email protected] Keywords: Verbatim theatre; Stuff Happens; Orientalism; David Hare. ABSTRACT The war launched by America and its allies against the country of Iraq on 2003 was a debatable and notorious war for the public opinion was shocked with the realization that the reasons for launching the war under the title ‘Iraq’s Mass Destruction Weapons’ were false. The tragic consequences of this war led many writers around the world to question the policy of the United States and its manipulation of facts to justify their narratives. The present study examines the American policy of invading Iraq in David Hare’s Stuff Happens. It investigates Hare’s technique of combining documentary realism with imaginative reconstruction of the arguments to dramatize the American Invasion of Iraq. Stuff Happens is a historical and political play written as a verbatim theatre. It depicts the backroom deals and political maneuvers of the Bush administration in justifying their campaign against the ‘Axis of Evil’ culminated by the war against Iraq. The verbatim theatre is the best way of showing the gap between ‘what is said and what is seen to be done’.

The inspiration for Plenty came from the fact that 75 per cent of the women engaged in wartime SOE operations divorced in the immediate post-war years; the title is derived from the idea that the post-war era would be a time of "plenty", which proved untrue for most of England. The play premiered Off-Broadway on 21 Octoberat the Public Theaterwhere it ran for 45 performances. Plenty was revived at Chichester inin the Festival Theatre between June. Susan Traherne, a former secret agent, is a woman conflicted by the contrast between her past, exciting triumphs and her present, more ordinary David Hare Plays 1: Slag; Teeth n Smiles; Knuckle; Licking Hitler; Plenty. However, she regrets the mundane nature of her present life, as the increasingly depressed wife of a diplomat whose career she has destroyed. Susan Traherne's story is told in a non-linear chronologyalternating between her wartime and post-wartime lives, illustrating how youthful dreams rarely are realised and how a person's personal life can affect the outside world.

  • Berlin/Wall: Hare’S Eyes on Two Walls of the World
    Pamukkale Üniversitesi Sosyal Bilimler Enstitüsü Dergisi Sayı 14, 2013, Sayfa 37-46 BERLIN/WALL: HARE’S EYES ON TWO WALLS OF THE WORLD Kağan KAYA* Abstract The theatre audience currently has a thirst for hearing the political narratives of the playwrights. As media has lost its reliability all over the world, the fans of theatre have preferred watching more political plays than TV bulletins today. As one of the leading voices of the political theatre of the world, David Hare knows what expectations the audience has and what responsibilities political drama has. He handles the results of a lot of national and international political decisions over societies and individuals in his plays. In Berlin/ Wall, which are two separate monologue readings, the British playwright portrays new life conditions of ordinary people of different communities via his own empirical observations and interviews after the two walls which were erected by world politics. This work primarily examines the sociological views and political narratives of David Hare about the present and future of Germany, Israel and Palestine among the traces of two walls. Key Words: Berlin, David Hare, Israel-Palestine, Political theatre, Two walls BERLIN/WALL: HARE’İN GÖZÜ DÜNYANIN İKİ DUVARI ÜZERİNDE Özet Günümüzde tiyatro izleyicisi, oyun yazarlarının siyasal anlatılarına şiddetli istek duyar. Medya dünya çapında güvenirliğini yitirdikçe, tiyatro takipçileri, televizyon bültenlerini izlemektense daha çok siyasal oyunlar izlemeyi tercih etmektedir. Dünya siyasal tiyatrosunun önder seslerinden biri olarak David Hare, tiyatro izleyicisin beklentilerini ve siyasal tiyatronun sorumluluklarını bilir. Oyunlarında birçok ulusal ve uluslararası siyasal kararın toplumların ve bireylerin üzerindeki sonuçlarını ele alır. İngiliz oyun yazarı, iki ayrı monolog türde okuma olan Berlin/Wall’da, kendi deneysel gözlemleri ve mülakatları yoluyla dünya siyasetinin diktiği iki duvarın ardından farklı toplumların sıradan insanlarının yeni yaşam koşullarını yansıtır.

  • Announcing a VIEW from the BRIDGE
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE, PLEASE “One of the most powerful productions of a Miller play I have ever seen. By the end you feel both emotionally drained and unexpectedly elated — the classic hallmark of a great production.” - The Daily Telegraph “To say visionary director Ivo van Hove’s production is the best show in the West End is like saying Stonehenge is the current best rock arrangement in Wiltshire; it almost feels silly to compare this pure, primal, colossal thing with anything else on the West End. A guileless granite pillar of muscle and instinct, Mark Strong’s stupendous Eddie is a force of nature.” - Time Out “Intense and adventurous. One of the great theatrical productions of the decade.” -The London Times DIRECT FROM TWO SOLD-OUT ENGAGEMENTS IN LONDON YOUNG VIC’S OLIVIER AWARD-WINNING PRODUCTION OF ARTHUR MILLER’S “A VIEW FROM THE BRIDGE” Directed by IVO VAN HOVE STARRING MARK STRONG, NICOLA WALKER, PHOEBE FOX, EMUN ELLIOTT, MICHAEL GOULD IS COMING TO BROADWAY THIS FALL PREVIEWS BEGIN WEDNESDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 21 OPENING NIGHT IS THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 12 AT THE LYCEUM THEATRE Direct from two completely sold-out engagements in London, producers Scott Rudin and Lincoln Center Theater will bring the Young Vic’s critically-acclaimed production of Arthur Miller’s A VIEW FROM THE BRIDGE to Broadway this fall.

  • In David Hare's Stuff Happens (2004) Khaled S
    International Letters of Social and Humanistic Sciences Online: 2015-10-29 ISSN: 2300-2697, Vol. 62, pp 73-90 doi:10.18052/www.scipress.com/ILSHS.62.73 CC BY 4.0. Published by SciPress Ltd, Switzerland, 2015 "Coercive Diplomacy" in David Hare's Stuff Happens (2004) Khaled S. Sirwah Department of English, Faculty of Arts, Kafreshikh University, Egypt E-mail address: [email protected]; [email protected] Keywords: coercive diplomacy, conflict, invasion, Iraq’s WMD’s, Saddam Hussein, the UN, the US, Tony Blair, war, 9/11. ABSTRACT This paper addresses George Bush the junior's decision to invade Iraq in 2003 on the plea of its weapons of mass destructions (WMD's), as delineated in David Hare's Stuff Happens (2004), a docudrama depicting the events following the 9/11 attacks and preceding the US’s invasion of Iraq. The paper explains how Bush deals with the opponents—Colin Powell, the British PM Tony Blair, and Hans Blix—opposing his decision, based on "fabricated" evidence, by employing his father's strategy of coercive diplomacy against them, depending on both his faith and his position as President. Drawing on a postcolonial approach, the analysis of Hare's piece has demonstrated two significant aspects: 1) Bush, implementing such a strategy of coercive diplomacy, has succeeded in achieving his private agenda in invading Iraq; 2) Hare is possessed of the dramatic dexterity of mixing fiction (the significant roles of the nameless fictional characters as well as the unnamed narrator-actors) with facts (the main figures of politics) for supporting play’s different conflicts.

  • Writing Figures of Political Resistance for the British Stage Vol1.Pdf
    Writing Figures of Political Resistance for the British Stage Volume One (of Two) Matthew John Midgley PhD University of York Theatre, Film and Television September 2015 Writing Figures of Resistance for the British Stage Abstract This thesis explores the process of writing figures of political resistance for the British stage prior to and during the neoliberal era (1980 to the present). The work of established political playwrights is examined in relation to the socio-political context in which it was produced, providing insights into the challenges playwrights have faced in creating characters who effectively resist the status quo. These challenges are contextualised by Britain’s imperial history and the UK’s ongoing participation in newer forms of imperialism, the pressures of neoliberalism on the arts, and widespread political disengagement. These insights inform reflexive analysis of my own playwriting. Chapter One provides an account of the changing strategies and dramaturgy of oppositional playwriting from 1956 to the present, considering the strengths of different approaches to creating figures of political resistance and my response to them. Three models of resistance are considered in Chapter Two: that of the individual, the collective, and documentary resistance. Each model provides a framework through which to analyse figures of resistance in plays and evaluate the strategies of established playwrights in negotiating creative challenges. These models are developed through subsequent chapters focussed upon the subjects tackled in my plays. Chapter Three looks at climate change and plays responding to it in reflecting upon my creative process in The Ends. Chapter Four explores resistance to the Iraq War, my own military experience and the challenge of writing autobiographically.

  • The Judas Kiss Directed by Michael Michetti
    Contact: Niki Blumberg, Tim Choy 323-954-7510 [email protected], [email protected] Boston Court Pasadena presents David Hare’s The Judas Kiss Directed by Michael Michetti February 15 – March 24 Press Opening: February 23 2019 Theatre Season Sponsored by the S. Mark Taper Foundation PASADENA, CA (January 17, 2019) — Boston Court Pasadena commences the 2019 theatre season with a rare production of David Hare’s The Judas Kiss (February 15 – March 24), which tells the story of Oscar Wilde’s love for Lord Alfred “Bosie” Douglas – and tracking his downfall as he endures a brutal trial and life in exile. Helmed by Artistic Director Michael Michetti, the play examines a literary icon who continues to hold onto his passionate ideals of love and beauty as his life crumbles around him. Sir David Hare, the British playwright behind Plenty, Skylight, and Stuff Happens creates “an emotionally rich drama illuminated by Hare’s customary insight and humanity.” (The Globe and MaiI). The Judas Kiss features Rob Nagle (Oscar Wilde), Colin Bates (Lord Alfred “Bosie” Douglas), Darius De La Cruz (Robert Ross), Will Dixon (Sandy Moffatt), Matthew Campbell Dowling (Arthur Wellesley), Mara Klein (Phoebe Cane) and Kurt Kanazawa (Galileo Masconi). In spring of 1895, Oscar Wilde was larger than life. His masterpiece, The Importance of Being Earnest, was a hit in the West End and he was the toast of London. Yet by summer he was serving two years in prison for gross indecency. Punished for “the love that dare not speak its name,” Wilde remained devoted to his beloved, Lord Alfred “Bosie” Douglas.

  • VIA DOLOROSA: FAITH and FIDELITY KAĞAN KAYA Cumhuriyet
    VIA DOLOROSA: FAITH and FIDELITY KAĞAN KAYA Cumhuriyet University, Sivas Abstract: David Hare is one of the most fulgent figures of the global theatre who peculiarly places national and international political issues and their effects on the individual and society in his non-fiction drama. The political struggle between Palestinians and Israelis has been brought into debate through the imagination of several leading dramatists so far. Hare presents the purest ideas about this issue throughout his work, Via Dolorosa. However, his main concern is the corruption of faith and the meaninglessness of life, chiefly in the western world. In this respect, the playwright deals with the notion of faith in a universal point of view in this monologue play. Key words: David Hare, faith, Israel-Palestine, non-fiction drama, the West. 1. Introduction Since the 1990s, and particularly after the events of 9/11, it is highly popular among theatre-goers to see a play that covers national and international issues. It seems that the popularity of political plays will carry on in the first quarter of the twenty-first century. This paper presents a literary analysis of Via Dolorosa, which is one of the hottest political plays by David Hare. Billington (2009:387) delineates the play as “a brilliant piece of subjective reportage… so moving”. It is not only authentic with its technical style and rendition, but also with its vivid and gripping subject matter. In fact, David Hare, who is one of Britain’s most prolific political playwrights, has been using national and international fresh political material in his multi-coloured drama to meet the demands of theatre-goers for forty years.

  • Exploring Female Athletes' Body Perceptions
    SQUEEZING IN: EXPLORING FEMALE ATHLETES’ BODY PERCEPTIONS Mallory E. Mann A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY August 2015 Committee: Vikki Krane, Advisor Dafina-Lazarus Stewart Graduate Faculty Representative Nancy Spencer Dryw Dworsky ii ABSTRACT Vikki Krane, Advisor Much attention has been paid to female college athlete body image over the last three decades. However, relatively few inquiries employed a holistic approach that examined the myriad of interrelated sociocultural and personal factors influencing athletes’ body perceptions. The primary purpose of the current study was to explore female college athletes’ body image in both social and sport settings. A secondary purpose was to investigate the sociocultural context and how it influenced athletes’ body perceptions. Finally, this study sought to understand the ways in which female athletes’ social identities helped explain their body-related behaviors. Feminist and intersectional methodological approaches guided this inquiry to create partial, in- depth understandings of how female athletes think about and relate to their physiques. The study is particularly unique in its commitment to representing multiple, diverse stories from athletes without privileging one type of body perception. Using an intersectional methodology contextualized athletes body descriptions to uncover deeper meanings and underlying factors. Twenty female college athletes participated in unstructured interviews. These athletes represented eight different varsity sports at NCAA Division I, II, and III institutions. This study offers a new perspective on the relationship between motivational team climate and female athlete body image. While task-oriented team climates still appear to serve as a protective factor against body disturbances among athletes, findings also indicated that a team’s obsession with the body seemed more closely tied to body image issues than a team’s goal orientation.
