M. Barrie, Peter Pan Bron: He’s just a lost boy. Hilary: This isn’t Never Never Land. —Alan Bennett, The Old Country One of Freud’s fundamental insights is that the human psyche develops through a process by which the individual confronts and seeks to compensate for the frustration of his or her desires. Through the whole spectrum of human activities, from the destructively neurotic to the healthy, we try to come to terms with the fact that some of our desires have not been, and perhaps never will be, satisfied.

  • Full Cast Announced for the Treatment
    PRESS RELEASE Friday 24 February 2017 THE ALMEIDA THEATRE ANNOUNCES THE FULL CAST FOR THE TREATMENT, MARTIN CRIMP’S CONTEMPORARY SATIRE, DIRECTED BY LYNDSEY TURNER CHOREOGRAPHER ARTHUR PITA JOINS THE CREATIVE TEAM Joining Aisling Loftus and Matthew Needham in THE TREATMENT will be Gary Beadle, Ian Gelder, Ben Onwukwe, Julian Ovenden, Ellora Torchia, Indira Varma, and Hara Yannas. The Treatment begins previews at the Almeida Theatre on Monday 24 April and runs until Saturday 10 June. The press night is Friday 28 April. New York. A film studio. A young woman has an urgent story to tell. But here, people are products, movies are money and sex sells. And the rights to your life can be a dangerous commodity to exploit. Martin Crimp’s contemporary satire is directed by Lyndsey Turner, who returns to the Almeida following her award-winning production of Chimerica. The Treatment will be designed by Giles Cadle, with lighting by Neil Austin, composition by Rupert Cross, fight direction by Bret Yount, sound by Chris Shutt, and voice coaching by Charmian Hoare. The choreographer is Arthur Pita. Casting is by Julia Horan. ALMEIDA QUESTIONS In response to The Treatment - where it’s material that matters – Whose Life Is It Anyway? continues the Almeida’s programme of pre-show discussions as a panel delves into the worldwide fascination with constructed realities in art and in life. When you sell your story is your life still your own? In the golden age of social media - where immaculately contrived worlds are labelled as real life - what is the cost? Can truth be traced in art at all? The panel includes Instagram star Deliciously Stella, Made In Chelsea producer Nick Arnold, and Anita Biressi, Professor of Media and Communications at Roehampton University.

    The Memory of Britain’s Cold War: An Assessment of Cold War Memory in post-1989 British Film and Television Sarah Marshall (2016) Taught MA, History Supervisor: Dr Matthew Grant ii Contents Acknowledgments p. iii List of Abbreviations p. iv Introduction p. 1 Chapter One: A Bleak Britain p. 11 Chapter Two: Disillusionment Then and Now p. 32 Chapter Three: A Cold War Nostalgia p. 55 Conclusion p. 73 Bibliography p. 77 iii Acknowledgements I gratefully acknowledge the help of my supervisor in matters of style and substance, and would therefore like to thank Dr Matthew Grant for his guidance and support throughout the year, without which this project would not have been possible. iv List of Abbreviations MAD – Mutually Assured Destruction WMD – Weapons of Mass Destruction 1 Introduction Britain’s Cold War changed the face of politics and shaped the Britain we know today. Despite this, there is a limited understanding of the conflict, its impact and its legacy, which can only be wholly understood through an exploration of how the conflict is remembered. Cultural depictions of the Cold War reflect how the conflict is recalled in the modern world, yet also shape memories and understandings of the conflict, and these memories even continue to influence current affairs. The mediums of film and television provide a key insight into how the Cold War narrative is remembered, re-worked and re- circulated. This research will contribute to the study of Britain’s Cold War and also the emerging scholarship of Cold War memory. The Cold War witnessed the division of Europe, with East-West hostilities and competition dominating international politics.
