Vient Submitted in fulfillment of the degree of Master of Arts by Research in Drama School of Arts University of Kent June 2020 84 pages Word Count: 35351 2 Acknowledgements: First, I must recognize Laura Wade, her agent Rhia Douty and Adam Narat, Literary Assistant at the Royal Court Theatre. Without the access to the different draft of Posh, this dissertation could not have happened. Then, thank you to the University of Kent the School of Arts for this amazing opportunity. To Robert Shaughnessy and Margherita Laera, who started this path with me, then Shaun May who helped to complete it with me. To Jo Pearman and Nate Davis for proof reading. To Student Support and Wellbeing, particularly Miriam Wood, whom I own a huge amount of gratitude. I could not have done this without the loving support of my family and friends. Finally, to Ollie for keeping up with the cleaning: “I love you to the moon and back!” Warning: Because of the context of the research using a 21st century script, this dissertation does use profanity, description of a sexual nature, sexual assault and violence. 2 3 Abstract: This dissertation is a case study focusing on how a play is developed during the production process. By breaking down the changes that took place in the six years (2007- 2012) of edits in Laura Wade’s Posh, one can see that a script is only finished once it begins production. The adjustments Wade made reflects the change in the British political, financial and sociological environment, which affects the scripts. This illustrates that theatre is an organic medium, and should evolve throughout the production process. Writing a complete script is just the beginning in theatre though there are classes, books and workshops one can take to write a play, the final product is not complete until it moves into production. Knowing Wade’s projection as a playwright, how she writes, as well as her theatre history, one concludes that theatre is a group effort and that writing a play is only the first step in a complicated, multifaceted medium when working in the theatre. 3 4 Table of Contents Abbreviation Key

  • Combined E-Mails Sent Between PRYCE and OAKESHOTT
    Exhibit: LJN/12a Combined E-mails sent between PRYCE and OAKESHOTT -----Original Message---- From: isabel oakeshott < Date: Tue, I Mar~201120:08:15 To: <viclcypryce Subject: my gran plan I've spent most of the afternoon thinking about your situation from every angle and have come to some conclusions, which I hope you'll have a think about First of all, i think your reputation would be really damaged by a 'tell all' book with Angela Levin/ the Mail on Sunday. The Mail on Sunday is -at the end of the day- a fairly downmarket publication and a lot of people would think it a bit tawdry for you to be co-operating with them. I know it's got a big readership, but so has the News of the World! Ifyou are seen to be helping the Mail on Sunday, it will look bad- no two ways about it. There will also be an assumption that you've made money from it, - because everyone rightly assumes that papers like that use their cheque books to get their stories. That would be bad for your reputation. At the moment it sounds like you have a really good chance ofjoining the MPC in the nearish future, and in the longer term, perhaps even the House of Lords. It is not worth jeapardising that if it can be avoided. Given that you clearly want to tell your story, (and at the same time see that Chris gets what he deserves) that leaves two options: 1) do the book, but give serialisation rights to a more respectable paper, ie, the Sunday Times.

  • September/October 2014 at BFI Southbank
    September/October 2014 at BFI Southbank Al Pacino in Conversation with Salome & Wilde Salome, Jim Jarmusch and Friends, Peter Lorre, Night Will Fall, The Wednesday Play at 50 and Fela Kuti Al Pacino’s Salomé and Wilde Salomé based on Oscar Wilde’s play, will screen at BFI Southbank on Sunday 21 September and followed by a Q&A with Academy Award winner Al Pacino and Academy Award nominee Jessica Chastain that will be broadcast live via satellite to cinemas across the UK and Ireland. This unique event will be hosted by Stephen Fry. Jim Jarmusch was one of the key filmmakers involved in the US indie scene that flourished from the mid-70s to the late 90s. He has succeeded in remaining true to the spirit of independence, with films such as Stranger Than Paradise (1984), Dead Man (1995) and, most recently, Only Lovers Left Alive (2013). With the re-release of Down By Law (1986) as a centrepiece for the season, we will also look at films that have inspired Jarmusch A Century of Chinese Cinema: New Directions will celebrate the sexy, provocative and daring work by acclaimed contemporary filmmakers such as Wong Kar-wai, Jia Zhangke, Wang Xiaoshuai and Tsai Ming-liang. These directors built on the innovations of the New Wave era and sparked a renewed global interest in Chinese cinema into the new millennium André Singer’s powerful new documentary Night Will Fall (2014) reveals for the first time the liberation of the Nazi concentration camps and the efforts made by army and newsreel cameramen to document the almost unbelievable scenes encountered there.

  • Wealthy Business Families in Glasgow and Liverpool, 1870-1930 a DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO
    NORTHWESTERN UNIVERSITY In Trade: Wealthy Business Families in Glasgow and Liverpool, 1870-1930 A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS for the degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Field of History By Emma Goldsmith EVANSTON, ILLINOIS December 2017 2 Abstract This dissertation provides an account of the richest people in Glasgow and Liverpool at the end of the nineteenth and beginning of the twentieth centuries. It focuses on those in shipping, trade, and shipbuilding, who had global interests and amassed large fortunes. It examines the transition away from family business as managers took over, family successions altered, office spaces changed, and new business trips took hold. At the same time, the family itself underwent a shift away from endogamy as young people, particularly women, rebelled against the old way of arranging marriages. This dissertation addresses questions about gentrification, suburbanization, and the decline of civic leadership. It challenges the notion that businessmen aspired to become aristocrats. It follows family businessmen through the First World War, which upset their notions of efficiency, businesslike behaviour, and free trade, to the painful interwar years. This group, once proud leaders of Liverpool and Glasgow, assimilated into the national upper-middle class. This dissertation is rooted in the family papers left behind by these families, and follows their experiences of these turbulent and eventful years. 3 Acknowledgements This work would not have been possible without the advising of Deborah Cohen. Her inexhaustible willingness to comment on my writing and improve my ideas has shaped every part of this dissertation, and I owe her many thanks.

  • Income Inequality Is Not Just About Material Deprivation However
    Class Wars/Culture Wars 1st March 2012 Who makes chavs? Sue Christoforou www.equalitytrust.org.uk Causes of disadvantage V Professor Sir Michael Marmot, internationally acclaimed epidemiologist Income inequality is not just about material deprivation however. There is evidence that the degree of inequality in society, is having a harmful effect on health, not only of the poor, but of society as a whole. Countries, and areas within countries, marked by greater inequality have not only worse health but a higher rate of crime and other adverse social outcomes. Both poverty and inequality may be important for social cohesion, life opportunities and health.
