In seventeenth century Amsterdam, an orphaned girl Sophia is forcibly married to a rich and powerful merchant Cornelis Tulip Fever - an unhappy "arrangement" that saves her from poverty. After her husband commissions a portrait, she begins a passionate affair with the painter Jan Van Loos, a struggling young artist. Seeking to escape the merchant's ever-reaching grasp, the lovers risk everything and enter the frenzied tulip bulb market, with the hope that the right bulb will make a fortune and buy their freedom. I had the privilege of seeing this film in preview in the famous Tuschinski theatre in the heart of the canal district in Amsterdam. Tulip Fever enjoyed the novel whilst living there inI have watched as it's release dates have been continually changed giving all the signs of a production in distress. Early rumours of poor test screenings can be damaging whether true or not! Like another reviewer I found the opening narration at odds with the images and consequently confusing. The first 40 minutes edited in a pedestrian style merely to Tulip Fever off necessary plot points, and Tulip Fever any sensitivity to mood or place, so prevalent in the novel. Strangely, the movie seemed to Tulip Fever both full of beautiful 'pictures', historical detail, Tulip Fever treats and mood, and yet at the Tulip Fever time, the continued use of one street set left it feeling small and enclosed and almost like stage set. Little sense of Amsterdam as a City State enjoying a glorious rise on the world stage. At that point after 40 minutes having laid out the plot points and established the characters, the film starts to build, thanks to the real tension in the original story, a good script Tulip Fever some fine performances. I got over a niggling feeling of disappointment at the 'smallness' of the set production, and instead decided to enjoy the abundant visual detail and the way the Tulip Fever started to rip along. Ultimately the great story rose above the shaky first reel and the production design above its limited scale. I was with two friends who hadn't read the book, and we all three came to really enjoy the film, despite the confused and hurried beginnings. It deserves to rise above its production history and be widely seen and enjoyed. It doesn't quite reach the heights of the source material, Tulip Fever it's far from a failure with much to enjoy.

    TULIP FEVER by Campbell Dalglish, [email protected] While the feverish auction of tulips ("tulipomania") brawls it up in the back room parlors of 17th Century Amsterdam, can a heated love affair between the orphaned beauty Sophia (Alicia Vikander - “The Danish Girl") and her bedroom-eyed portrait artist Jan (Dane DeHaan - "Spiderman") rescue them from the grips of a marriage to the old "king of peppercorns?" The plot itself may sound ludicrous. How can anyone take such a love story seriously? In this film, "Tulip Fever," playwright Tom Stoppard ("Shakespeare in Love") and director Justin Chadwick (“The Other Boleyn Girl” and “Mandela: Long Walk to Freedom”), create together a grandiloquent intrigue of adultery, money and love based on the novel by Deborah Moggach, (Best Exotic Marigold Hotel). After three years of "little soldiering" in bed with Cornelius, Sophia is unable to get pregnant and give Cornelius the heir to his estate he so desperately seeks. Even though he eventually falls in love with her and hires a painter to immortalize his claim to Sophia's beauty, he is ready to give her up if she doesn't produce. Then the subplot swallows the main plot. Servant maid Maria (Holliday Grainger - "My Cousin Rachel") and fishmonger Willem (Jack O’Connell "Unbroken") carry on a secret love affair in the kitchen. When Willem mistakes Sophia for his Maria, and sees her sneaking off to have sex with the painter, he loses his mind and is conveniently swept off to serve in the Navy for a year. Meanwhile the abandoned Maria discovers she is pregnant, and the main plot is now growing in her belly -- the possible heir to the estate that Sophia has been trying to produce for Cornelius.

  • Shotgun Players Presents Arcadia, Written by Tom Stoppard, Directed by Patrick Dooley “Arcadia Highlights the Ephemeral Nature of Love and Life
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Media Contact: OCTOBER 2018 Shokai Sinclair Marketing and communications director [email protected] or 510.692.2354 (cell) Shotgun Players presents Arcadia, written by Tom Stoppard, directed by Patrick Dooley “Arcadia highlights the ephemeral nature of love and life. Objects are constant, but people are inconstant—or at least inconsistent. So we kind of screw up the formula for the universe.” —Patrick Dooley, Arcadia director & Shotgun Players Founding Artistic Director Berkeley, CA – The extent to which we are able to address life’s obstacles in an open and honest way is directly related to our ability to manifest our highest calling and most noble purpose—to love. Set on a country estate between 1809 and the late 20th century, Stoppard’s masterpiece explores mathematics, landscape gardening, Byron, and the undeniable power of the human heart. Arcadia begins previews on Friday, November 30; opens on Friday, December 7; and runs through Sunday, January 6, 2019, at the Ashby Stage. Shotgun Players’ Founding Artistic Director, Patrick Dooley, vividly remembers watching a production of Arcadia. He was astounded not only with Stoppard’s ability to explore human nature, but also with the way in which he uses metaphors such as jam mixed in porridge to explain the complexity of astrophysics. It was his first experience as an audience member with Tom Stoppard. In 2012, he embarked upon our ambitious journey with Stoppard’s The Coast of Utopia trilogy. Mr. Dooley spent three years with a cast of 30 actors to bring the epic to life. Yet it is Arcadia that has always drawn Mr.

    Session :2019-2020 Strictly for Internal Circulation Only Lecture Notes : 01 M.A. ENGLISH SEMESTER II PAPER-V: ENGLISH SOCIETY, LITERATURE AND THOUGHT (20th CENTURY) UNIT-IV DRAMA Dr. Meenakshi Pawha Associate Professor Department of English and Modern European Languages University of Lucknow TOM STOPPARD AS A PLAYWRIGHT With special reference to Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead Introduction Theatre is a living art and consequently it continually responds to the world around it. As that world changes so does theatre. Furthermore theatre is a product of human imagination; it remains as unpredictable as the minds of those who create it. In fact, “this constant interaction between human imagination and a changing cultural environment is suggestive of the ecological balance between living organisms and their biological environment.” (Hansen 6). Just as living organisms must adapt or die out, so must the art of theatre adapt. Any art lives in a balanced relationship with the society which supports it. This is especially true of theatre, an art which only happens when relatively large numbers of people are assembled at the same space at the same time. For ten years and more after the Second World War, the British theatre lived quietly with little argument; its scattered forces were reassembled and work was put on hand to restore the production lines that had been in action before hostilities began. “ Some few oddities were accommodated like a revival of verse drama (Brown 1) - but that innovation did not challenge old theatrical forms or literary felicities- and translations or adaptations of plays by Federico Garcia Lorca, Jean Giradoux and Jean Anouilh.
