Download or read book Two Plays by Olga Mukhina written by John Freedman and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2005-08-31 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Olga Mukhina is one of the most talented, young playwrights in Russia. Born in Moscow in 1970, she has already garnered enviable praise from critics and audiences throughout Russia and Europe since her first play, Tanya-Tanya, was performed in 1996. Tanya-Tanya is an atmospheric, poetic tale that observes three couples at a suburban Moscow home who dance, drink champagne, kiss, fall in and out of love, and struggle with dignity and humor to keep some semblance of control over their lives. The parallels with Chekhovian drama are undeniable and clearly intended by the author. You, Mukhina's most recent work, is a love poem to her hometown of Moscow as well as a scathing attack on the apathy of people blindly wrapped up in their own happiness and sorrow.

Download or read book Dance Like a Man written by Mahesh Dattani and published by Penguin UK. This book was released on 2006-06-01 with total page 94 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jairaj Parekh and his wife Ratna, aging Bharatnatyam dancers, are engaged in finding a substitute mridangam player to accompany their daughter Lata at her performance at a high-profile dance festival. Lata, in the meantime, nervously awaits the meeting between her parents and Viswas, the young man she wishes to marry. When the four meet, and in the conversations and discussions that follow, the fissures in the relationship between Jairaj and Ratna begin to explode into high-strung battles which lead back to their own youth and the tragedy that lies at the heart of their discord. The younger couple have their own issues to contend with: the obvious mismatch between the two sets of parents, the arguments over Lata’s career as a dancer after marriage and most unsettling of all, Lata’s attempt to balance her parents’ ambition with her own needs and desires. A brilliant study of human relationships and weaknesses framed by the age-old battle between tradition and youthful rebellion, Dance Like a Man has been hailed as one of the best works of the dramatic imagination in recent times.
Download or read book TWO PLAYS written by Robert Blumenfeld and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2023-10-15 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Count of Sainte-Hélène: A Balzacian Melodrama takes place in 1817-1818 in Paris, during the Bourbon Restoration when Louis XVIII had been placed on the throne of France at the decree of the Congress of Vienna after the defeat of Napoleon at Waterloo in 1815. This play is based on one of the most sensational cases solved by the first great detective in history, Eugène-François Vidocq, the ex-convict who became head of the French Sûreté (the Security Service of the French police). An altogether extraordinary individual, he was an acquaintance of Victor Hugo, who based both Jean Valjean and Inspector Javert in Les Misérables on Vidocq; and a friend of Balzac, whose character Vautrin is even more closely inspired by and modeled on Vidocq than Hugo’s characters are. Interludes of the Hear: A Play about Marcel Proust, his life and loves, was inspired by my love for that author’s most famous book, In Search of Lost Time. The play goes back and forth in time, as the Student interviews Céleste Albaret, Proust’s housekeeper and general factotum, for his doctoral dissertation. When I read the book, I felt it was as if he were talking directly to me. I am sure many readers have had the same experience. Proust’s penetrating picture of the society of his day in pre-World War One France, and of Paris during the war itself, and his amazing, psychologically insightful portrait of each of his characters, his understanding of psychology that in some ways parallels that of Sigmund Freud, makes his book still relevant in today’s world.

Download or read book Two Plays for Tuppence written by James Bourke and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2016-06-06 with total page 91 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two plays for Tuppence consists of two plays written specifically for television. Both plays have an Irish setting and an Irish ambiance. The first play, A Most Civil Servant, deals with the manner in which its central character, Mr. Carmody stumbles into a position in the Civil Service in Dublin Castle. It is 1922. The War of Independence has ended and the Irish government is taking over from the British. During this transition period there is a good deal of confusion over the allocation of offices, which Mr. Carmody exploits to his advantage. The play was inspired by the short story They Also Serve by Mervyn Wall, first published in Harpers (1940) and included by Benedict Kiely in The Penguin Book of Irish Short Stories (1981). However, the play is not an adaptation of Walls story. It covers a much broader canvas and deals with events which are not in Walls famous short story, including a visit to Paris where Mr. Carmody and his mate Frank meet James Joyce. After many strange episodes in various parts of Dublin, the play reaches a dramatic climax in the final scene. The second play, Hobsons Choice, tells the curious tale of Clive Alexander Goode, a Dublin academic, who has endured twenty-five years of living hell with his wife, Beth. He plans and executes the perfect murder, believing that he is morally justified in ridding society of the evil one. Subsequently, he is charged with the unlawful killing of his wife and is committed to the Dundrum Mental Asylum, where he seeks enlightenment. The play illustrates how we fabricate our own morality and how we deal with our own demonsthe conflicts within ourselves. Clive professes a blind belief in the magical powers of the Sidhe, whom he first encountered when he was growing up in Sligo on the south side of Knocknarea. Like W. B. Yeats, he believes in the mystic world. There are twelve scenes that represent episodes in Clives troubled mind. We meet Clive in conversation with various people. The evil one, Clives malevolent wife, appears only at the beginning of the play, but she is the catalyst around whom the play revolves. The play straddles two worldsthe real and the unreal, the mundane and the mystical.
Download or read book Marivaux Two Plays written by Pierre de Marivaux and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2007-04-18 with total page 167 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two tales of multiple misunderstanding by the eighteenth-century master of complex, witty comedies. In the tightly-structured, erotically-charged fable The Triumph of Love, a young princess, conscious that her claim to the throne is less than honourable, disguises herself as a man in order to dupe her enemies and persuade the rightful ruler to return. This faithful and vivid translation by Braham Muray and Katherine Sand was first performed at the Royal Exchange Theatre, Manchester in 2007. In The Game of Love and Chance, a pair of prospective lovers each swap places with their servants, while their relatives, fully apprised of both deceptions, look on in amusement. Neil Bartlett's adaptation, first performed at the Lyric Hammersmith, finds inventive modern equivalents for Marivaux's ludic theatricality and its roots in the Commedia dell'Arte.
