Spotlight on British Imports SEPTEMBER 2020 SPOTLIGHT ON BRITISH IMPORTS Royals and dancing and mysteries, oh my. This month, we’re bringing you the best new programs from the United Kingdom. Check out these standout programs, and remember you can also stream them live on wliw.org/live. ARTS & CULTURE Twenty-five years ago, seven minutes changed the face of Irish dancing forever. The Eurovision Song Contest interval act performance by Riverdance gave millions of people an exciting glimpse of the future of Irish dance. Celebrate the magic of this Grammy-winning music and dance spectacular in Riverdance 25th Anniversary Show (Sunday, September 20 at 7:30pm), filmed live at the 3Arena in Dublin. Catapulting Riverdance into the 21st century, it features a new generation of dancers and musicians, including a 17-year-old fiddler from New Jersey. THRILLS & CHILLS Brilliant but cynical inspector Piet van der Valk (Marc Warren, Beecham House, The Good Wife) solves baffling crimes in 21st-century Amsterdam in Van der Valk on Masterpiece, a new series based on Nicolas Freeling’s legendary crime thrillers (Mondays at 9pm beginning September 14). In the first episode, art, politics and passion mix in a case that breaks in Piet’s new assistant. Following up a lead, Piet’s sidekick, Lucienne courts death. Can’t wait to see what happens next? WLIW21 Passport members can binge-watch all three episodes the night of the premiere (wliw.org/passport). HISTORICAL Lucy Worsley’s Royal Palaces Secrets (Wednesday, September 16 at 8pm) takes viewers on an exclusive tour of the Tower of London, Hampton Court, and the treasure-filled Kensington Palace. CLASSIC BRITISH DRAMA The heartwarming BAFTA-winning Last Tango in Halifax (Mondays at 8pm beginning September 28), about a couple who rediscovers their love for each other 60 years after they first met, returns for a fourth season. After seven years of marriage, Alan (Derek Jacobi) and Celia (Anne Reid) discover that wedded bliss isn’t always blissful. Clashing politics, Alan’s new job, a visiting brother, and a wild local lad also create tension.

When a plan is created to expand the village to keep up with its population growth, it sparks a turf war with their secular neighbors. Hear from people on all sides of the conflict, from religious zealots to dissidents, from rabbis to those questioning their own faith.

  • 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.

  • SONGS NICHOLA.S MEDT'ne,R Henry S,, Drinker
    for the SONGS o.£ NICHOLA.S MEDT'NE,R by Henry s,, Drinker NICHOLAS ·MEDT'NER By Alfred J. Swan· (Written by Professor Swan for the recital of Medtner's songs by Mme. Maria Kurenko and Paule Bailly at the Juilliard School on April 24, 1946) Nicholas Medtner was born in Moscow in January 1880. He tame from one of those Baltic families long settled in Central. Russia for purposes of· trade or business. Nothing seemed to predestine him to become a composer. Yet at the age of 12 music was already so living a force in his life that his parents transferred him from a regular Gymnasium to the famous Conservatory then directed by Safonoff. There was nothing spectacular about his musical endow­ ment, but step by step he proceeded to master the musical language, for he had definitely chosen it as a medium for the expression of his as yet undeveloped thoughts and emotions. After long years of hard work he graduated from Safonoff's class in piano. In presenting the customary medals and distinctions Safonoff turned to him say­ ing: "And to you I would give the ,diamond medal, but unfortunately this insti,. tution's highest award is only a gold medal." Safonoff inaugurated a concert tour for him abroad and insisted that he play everywhere the Hammerclavier Sonata of Beethoven. But he went only reluctantly, for he now wanted to de­ vote himself entirely to composition. Whether it· was now· that he became a pupil of Taneieff in counterpoint, or had studied. with him while learning the piano with Safonoff, is not quite clear.
