Download or read book Shakespeare for My Father by Lynn Redgrave written by Meredith Cave and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 27 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shakespeare for My Father is a one-woman play written by Lynn Redgrrave about her life, the people she encounters, and her relationship with her father. She recounts stories of her childhood and early life and presents monologues, stories, and soliloquies from her family members and other actors and characters who impacted her life. She does this while weaving in scenes from Shakespeare's plays and sonnets that help her to express her feelings and eloquently connect with her father who shares her love for Shakespeare and the stage. I performed the first act of Shakespeare for My Father in the Ruth Pearce Wilson Lab Theatre on April 5, 6, and 7, 2013 as a fine arts honors thesis. I am a senior at Georgetown College, double majoring in Theater Performance Studies and Political Science. I could have composed a thesis in either subject, but I felt passionate about Theatre. I wanted to grow and challenge myself as an actor. Performing Shakespeare for My Father was truly the greatest feat thus far of my theatrical career. I learned more from this hands on experience than I did from any event in a classroom. I broadened my knowledge and experience in all elements of the theatre while learning more about myself as a person and a performer.

Download or read book The Fictional 100 written by Lucy Pollard-Gott, PhD and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2010-01-13 with total page 499 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Some of the most influential and interesting people in the world are fictional. Sherlock Holmes, Huck Finn, Pinocchio, Anna Karenina, Genji, and Superman, to name a few, may not have walked the Earth (or flown, in Superman's case), but they certainly stride through our lives. They influence us personally: as childhood friends, catalysts to our dreams, or even fantasy lovers. Peruvian author and presidential candidate Mario Vargas Llosa, for one, confessed to a lifelong passion for Flaubert's Madame Bovary. Characters can change the world. Witness the impact of Solzhenitsyn's Ivan Denisovich, in exposing the conditions of the Soviet Gulag, or Harriet Beecher Stowe's Uncle Tom, in arousing anti-slavery feeling in America. Words such as quixotic, oedipal, and herculean show how fictional characters permeate our language. This list of the Fictional 100 ranks the most influential fictional persons in world literature and legend, from all time periods and from all over the world, ranging from Shakespeare's Hamlet [1] to Toni Morrison's Beloved [100]. By tracing characters' varied incarnations in literature, art, music, and film, we gain a sense of their shape-shifting potential in the culture at large. Although not of flesh and blood, fictional characters have a life and history of their own. Meet these diverse and fascinating people. From the brash Hercules to the troubled Holden Caulfield, from the menacing plots of Medea to the misguided schemes of Don Quixote, The Fictional 100 runs the gamut of heroes and villains, young and old, saints and sinners. Ponder them, fall in love with them, learn from their stories the varieties of human experience--let them live in you.
