  • A Delicate Balance ​ ​​ ​ ​ ​​ ​
    PEEK BEHIND ​ ​ THE SCENES OF A DELICATE BALANCE ​ ​​ ​ ​ ​​ ​ Compiled By Lotta Löfgren ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ To Our Patrons ​ ​ ​ ​ Most of us who attend a theatrical performance know little about how a play is ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ actually born to the stage. We only sit in our seats and admire the magic of theater. ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ But the birthing process involves a long period of gestation. ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Certainly magic does happen on the stage, minute to minute, and night after night. ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ But the magic that theatergoers experience when they see a play is made possible ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ only because of many weeks of work and the remarkable dedication of many, many ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ volunteers in order to transform the text into performance, to move from page to ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ stage. In this study guide, we want to give you some idea of what goes into creating a ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ show. You will see the actors work their magic in the performance tonight. But they ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ could not do their job without the work of others.

  • Edward Albee Albee Was Born on March 12, 1928, in Washington, D
    Biography - Edward Albee Albee was born on March 12, 1928, in Washington, D. C., and adopted at the age of two weeks by Reed and Frances Albee, who named him Edward after Reed’s father. This elder Edward held a substantial business interest in a chain of vaudeville theatres, and the family was very wealthy. Young Edward’s early years were spent among servants, nurses, tutors, as the family alternated between stays in the mansion in Larchmont, New York, and extended winter holidays in Florida. He had, it seems, few friends his own age, but he did own a variety of pets – cats, guinea pigs, a St. Bernard. His parents were, in several ways, a unique couple. His father, Reed, was a small, quiet, apparently unassertive man. Frances Albee, on the other hand, seems to have been loud, aggressive, domineering. She was also twenty-three years younger and a foot taller than her husband. Other of Albee’s biographers usually stress her love of riding and suggest that her usual daytime wear was jodhpurs and a riding crop. Young Edward, who disliked riding, apparently felt more at home with his grandmother (Mrs. Albee’s mother). Albee’s school record was, in the conventional sense, a very bad one. Sent to a boarding school at the age of eleven, he was eventually dismissed from it for cutting classes, ignoring his academic work, not playing compulsory sports, and general bad behaviour. To encourage him toward greater self-discipline, his mother sent him to the Valley Forge Military Academy. Albee’s conduct, however, was apparently a problem that the resources of the academy were not designed to cope with, and he left that school too, at the school’s request.

  • Interface Semiotics in the Dramaturgy of Tennessee Williams and Edward Albee
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by SZTE Doktori Értekezések Repozitórium... Ph.D. Dissertation Theses Interface Semiotics in the Dramaturgy of Tennessee Williams and Edward Albee Réka Mónika Cristian Szeged 2001 A. Objectives and Structure The topic of the present dissertation is the dramaturgy of two modem American playwrights, Tennessee Williams and Edward Albee. The aim is to map the common features of their works in the context of semiotic textual exchange between the two oeuvres and of the biographical background of the playwrights in the context of a dramatic interface of the two authors. The scope of the Albee-Williams dramatic interface is to explain both oeuvres through an internal patterning of events and characters by deriving concepts of the one (Williams) into the other (Albee). The study of both oeuvres provides the visualization of the enigmas, of the invisible patterns that work to build the intertextual Williams-Albee bind. The invisible in one play is a trope of representation in another play within the same oeuvre. One play is or might well be the other discourse of the other play both in the case of the same author and in case of two different authors. This trans-substantiation is present in the form of the dramatic intertext or, to be more precise - due to the biographical implication - of the dramatic interface. The influence of Williams on Albee’s works had been expressed by many literary critics, as well as by Albee himself The dramatic interface of the two authors is mapped with the theoretical help of semiotics, psychoanalysis, theories of myth, symbols and gender approaches.

  • Abstract the Goat Or, Who Is Sylvia?: a Perfomance At
    ABSTRACT THE GOAT OR, WHO IS SYLVIA?: A PERFOMANCE AT MIAMI UNIVERSITY By Luis Fernando Midence Diaz The Goat or, who is Sylvia? is a character-driven story about an architect whose life crumbles when he falls in love with a goat. The actual focus of the piece lies on where the boundaries of “love” within an allegedly “liberal” society are, and how incommunicable such inclinations are. The play also features many language games and grammatical arguments in the middle of catastrophes and existential disputes between the characters. As director of the play my production concept integrates two particular fields of my interest and knowledge: theatre and television production. The idea is to bring Albee’s absurdist story one step further by combining the live theatre experience with the live television element. Besides a dramaturgical analysis of Albee’s play, this thesis further investigates the influence of the classic Greek tradition of tragedy as well as a possible link between Albee’s tragic comedy and Shakespeare’s The Two Gentlemen of Verona, while also incorporating Bertolt Brecht’s theories on Epic Theatre into the analysis and actual performance.

  • Edward Albee and Arthur Kopit: Look Who’S Wearing the Pants!
    Cultural Intertexts Year 1 Vol. 1-2/2014 Edward Albee and Arthur Kopit: Look Who’s Wearing the Pants! Andra-Elena AGAFIŢEI∗ Abstract The aim of this paper is, on the one hand, to make the readers acquainted with the realities of the twentieth century American family, as perceived by the two American playwrights, and, on the other hand, to underline the unusual phenomena that have been brought by the changing dynamics of the family relationships. All the five plays under discussion—All Over, A Delicate Balance, The American Dream, The Sandbox by Edward Albee, and Oh Dad, Poor Dad, Mamma's Hung You in the Closet and I'm Feelin’ So Sad by Arthur Kopit — present situations in which the female characters seem to have become the leader, taking the place of the head of the family, of the pater familias. They stop acting like loving mothers and wives, they forget to take care of their families; instead, they lock away their hearts and assume the part of some sort of tyrant: they control everyone and everything in the house, their word being the equivalent of a rule. The female characters are endowed with masculine traits, whereas the male characters are emasculated, effeminate, deprived of any kind of power. The purpose of the paper is to demystify the myth of the ideal, perfect American family, to make the readers realize that the image that has been presented to the non-American public is, in the twentieth century, nothing but a disguise. Our goal is to display the image of the new American family hoping that, in doing so, we will succeed in making the readers realize the fact that human relationships, especially the ones within the family, need to be re-established on a deeper and more meaningful level.
