Book Synopsis The 101 Greatest Plays by : Michael Billington
Download or read book The 101 Greatest Plays written by Michael Billington and published by Faber & Faber. This book was released on 2015-09-01 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Having surveyed post-war British drama in State of the Nation, Michael Billington now looks at the global picture. In this provocative and challenging new book, he offers his highly personal selection of the 100 greatest plays ranging from the Greeks to the present-day. But his book is no mere list. Billington justifies his choices in extended essays- and even occasional dialogues- that put the plays in context, explain their significance and trace their performance history. In the end, it's a book that poses an infinite number of questions. What makes a great play? Does the definition change with time and circumstance? Or are certain common factors visible down the ages? It's safe to say that it's a book that, in revising the accepted canon, is bound to stimulate passionate argument and debate. Everyone will have strong views on Billington's chosen hundred and will be inspired to make their own selections. But, coming from Britain's longest-serving theatre critic, these essays are the product of a lifetime spent watching and reading plays and record the adventures of a soul amongst masterpieces.

Book Synopsis American Political Plays by : Allan Havis
Download or read book American Political Plays written by Allan Havis and published by University of Illinois Press. This book was released on 2001 with total page 404 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These scripts touch on the issues of the 1990s, including the Gulf War, racial and sexual relations, crises unique to big cities, immigration and multiculturalism, art and censorship, revisionist history, academic freedom, and the transformation of the American presidency. The American play by Suzan-Lori Parks features an Abraham Lincoln impersonator trapped in an outrageous, Beckett-like world, while Naomi Wallace's In the heart of America centers on a Palestinian American from Atlanta who is caught up in the Persian Gulf conflict. Kokoro by Velina Hasu Houston chillingly depicts the stark predicament of a Japanese mother caught between two impossible worlds; Marisol by José Rivera reveals the dark fairytale life of a young Latin woman in a wartorn, apocalyptic New York. The Gift by Allan Havis confronts overwhelming moral ambiguity in the farcical realm of university politics, while Nixon's Nixon by Russell Lees offers an adroit treatment of the fascinating, tortured Nixon/Kissinger relationship. The collection closes with Mac Wellman's 7 Blowjobs, a wicked send-up of the compromise politics that determined the fate of the National Endowment for the Arts.

Download or read book Plays of the Present written by John Bouve Clapp and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-12 with total page 413 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Plays of the Present The first series of fifteen books issued by the Dunlap Society from 1886 to 1891 was suspended in the latter year, owing to the lamented loss of some of its most earnest workers and to onerous duties in other fields of literature preventing the labors of others. It was found impossible to replace Edwin Booth, Thomas J. McKee, Harry Edwards, Brander Matthews, Laurence Hutton, John H. V. Arnold, and William Carey. The second series also exhausted its most active laborers and closed with the past year, having issued the same number of volumes between the years 1896 and 1901, leaving in the careful hands of Treasurer Daniel Frohman a goodly balance in cash received from subscribers, sales of back numbers, etc., which has been expended, by general desire, in the present "extra volume."

Book Synopsis The Revolutionists by : Lauren Gunderson
Download or read book The Revolutionists written by Lauren Gunderson and published by Dramatists Play Service, Inc.. This book was released on 2018-06-18 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Four beautiful, badass women lose their heads in this irreverent, girl-powered comedy set during the French Revolution’s Reign of Terror. Playwright Olympe de Gouges, assassin Charlotte Corday, former queen (and fan of ribbons) Marie Antoinette, and Haitian rebel Marianne Angelle hang out, murder Marat, and try to beat back the extremist insanity in 1793 Paris. This grand and dream-tweaked comedy is about violence and legacy, art and activism, feminism and terrorism, compatriots and chosen sisters, and how we actually go about changing the world. It's a true story. Or total fiction. Or a play about a play. Or a raucous resurrection…that ends in a song and a scaffold.
Download or read book Mnemonic written by Complicité and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2014-01-08 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A play and production from one of the world's most innovative theatre companies Mnemonic is about memory, people's personal histories, shared memories and discordant recollections - exhuming the past in order to examine it in the present. A variety of stories - from the discovery of bog people like Tollund Man to peoples compulsion to retrace the origins of their ancestors - collide and form a piece of theatre which questions our concept of time, our capacity to distort history and our attempts to retell the past. "An ice-preserved body - from 5,200 years ago - forms the central image of Theatre de Complicite's dazzlingly imaginative meditation on memory and morality. Timely and unforgettable" (Independent)
