My guest today is Simon Evans, director and co-adaptor of Cyrano de Bergerac for the Royal Shakespeare Company, starring Adrian Lester and Susannah Fielding, currently playing its West End transfer at the Noël Coward Theatre. He became a very familiar face during the pandemic with the BBC TV series Staged, which he wrote, directed and co-starred in, with Michael Sheen and David Tennant, all playing exaggerated versions of themselves. A prolific theatre director, his productions also include The Dazzle (starring Andrew Scott), Bug (James Norton), The Resistible Rise of Arturo Ui (Lenny Henry), Killer Joe (Orlando Bloom) and A Day in the Death of Joe Egg (Toby Stephens and Claire Skinner), and Inside No. 9 Stage/Fright, written by and starring Reece Shearsmith and Steve Pemberton, at the Wyndham's Theatre and the Hammersmith Apollo.

About This Episode: Sharry Flett has spent 34 seasons at the Shaw Festival - long enough to have watched the company evolve through three artistic directors, raise a daughter who appeared on its stages, and welcome back former students she once coached as the people now directing her. In this conversation with host Phil Rickaby, Sharry reflects on what keeps drawing her back to Niagara-on-the-Lake, and what it felt like to walk into rehearsals for Wind in the Willows and find Fiona Sauder, André Morin, and fight director Jack Davidson Rennie - all artists she had mentored at George Brown College, now in positions of leadership. This episode explores: What it was like for Sharry to be directed by three former students she had coached at George Brown College; and how she navigated that full-circle moment Playing Rat in Wind in the Willows: how the original Kenneth Grahame book shaped her approach to the character Why performing for children demands complete honesty and commitment; and how that discipline serves actors in any room The Shaw Festival under three artistic directors: Christopher Newton, Jackie Maxwell, and Tim Carroll, and how the ensemble ethos has remained constant through each Sharry's path from medicine to music to theatre, including the moment picking up a flute sent electricity through her arm The importance of teaching; and what Sharry gains from students when she brings Shaw's language alive in the room And much more!

EPISODE 153 -  “JACK & MABEL ALBERTSON: IT RUNS IN THE FAMILY” - 8/17/2026  Hollywood history is filled with famous acting families, but few sibling stories are quite as surprising—or as entertaining—as that of JACK and MABEL ALBERTSON. In the latest episode of From Beneath the Hollywood Sign, we look back at the remarkable lives and careers of a brother and sister who took very different roads to show business success. Jack became one of Hollywood's most beloved character actors. He won an Oscar for The Subject Was Roses, inspiring generations of fans as Grandpa Joe in Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory, and won legions of new fans on TV for Chico and the Man. Mabel carved out her own memorable career — appearing in movies such as Barefoot in the Park and What's Up Doc? before finding fame on television, most famously as Mother Stephens on Bewitched. From vaudeville stages and lean early years to Broadway, movies, television, and finally Hollywood success, theirs is a story of perseverance, talent, an unbreakable bond. Join us as we celebrate this revered brother/sister act, on a brand-new episode of From Beneath the Hollywood Sign.

C dans l'air l'invitée du 3 septembre 2025 avec Raphaëlle Bacqué, grand reporter au quotidien Le Monde, et autrice du livre Depardieu, une affaire très française, coécrit avec Samuel Blumenfeld et paru chez Albin Michel.Déjà condamné pour agressions sexuelles, l'acteur français Gérard Depardieu, 76 ans, devrait être traduit en justice au cours d'un nouveau procès, cette fois devant la cour criminelle départementale de Paris, pour viols sur la comédienne Charlotte Arnould. L'avocat de l'acteur, Jérémie Assous, a annoncé qu'il allait faire appel.Comme requis par le parquet de Paris, la juge d'instruction "ordonne le renvoi de Gérard Depardieu devant la cour criminelle pour des agressions sexuelles et viols par pénétration digitale à deux dates, les 7 et 13 août 2018" au domicile parisien de l'acteur, a déclaré à l'AFP son avocate Me Carine Durrieu Diebolt. Charlotte Arnould a de son côté salué ce renvoi, sur Instagram : "Sept ans après, sept ans d'horreur et d'enfer... (...). L'ordonnance vient rétablir une forme de vérité judiciaire. Je crois que j'ai du mal à réaliser tant c'est énorme. Je suis soulagée". La comédienne avait déposé plainte en août 2018 dans les Bouches-du-Rhône, quelques jours après les faits. Le parquet de Paris avait récupéré l'enquête puis l'avait classée en juin 2019 pour "infraction insuffisamment caractérisée".Multiprimé du "Dernier métro" à "Cyrano de Bergerac", Gérard Depardieu a été pendant plusieurs décennies considéré comme un géant du cinéma français, connu dans le monde entier, avant d'être rattrapé par ses outrances verbales et des accusations de violences sexuelles. Mi-mai, il a été condamné à 18 mois de prison avec sursis pour les agressions sexuelles de deux femmes sur le tournage en 2021 des "Volets verts" de Jean Becker. Il a fait appel.Raphaëlle Bacqué réagira au renvoi de Gérard Depardieu devant la cour criminelle de Paris, pour viols. 7 ans après les faits, alors que l'enquête avait été classée sans suite, comment expliquer une telle décision ? Qu'est-ce que cette affaire révèle du mouvement #Metoo en France, et de ses répercussions ?

"Cyrano de Bergerac," by Edmond Rostand, tells the poignant tale of a 17th-century French swordsman and poet who, despite his remarkable talents and bravery, struggles with his self-image due to his large nose. Believing that his appearance makes him unlovable, he sacrifices his own desires by helping a handsome but inarticulate soldier win the heart of the woman he loves. This timeless story explores themes of unrequited love, the nature of beauty, and the power of words, making it resonate with audiences today. Brian Hooker's celebrated translation captures the essence of Rostand's rhyming couplets in a compelling blank verse, ensuring that this classic remains a vital exploration of love and identity.

Today's episode is about public television, classic literature, and an extremely charismatic Jack Russell Terrier.Yes, we are talking about Wishbone, the iconic children's PBS show that aired from 1995 to 1998. It was about Wishbone the dog, who imagined himself as the star of many canonical texts such as The Odyssey, Romeo and Juliet, Oliver Twist, and Cyrano de Bergerac. The shoe aired for 50 episodes, and won 5 Daytime Emmys. There's a new documentary out about the show -- it's called What's the Story, Wishbone?. Host Greta Johnsen talks to two of the documentary's producers, who also worked on the original show -- Betty Buckley, who also produced Wishbone, and Larry Brantley, who played the voice of Wishbone himself.As the documentary explores, the show wasn't easy to make. The adaptations were ambitious, the production schedule was intense, and nothing like it had really been made before. But at the same time, there's a tangible sense of curiosity and joy. And of course, a charming dog in pantaloons is always a delight.

This week we sipped St. Francis cabernet while we unpacked Season 2 Episode 13: “Cyrano.” Ever see an episode of a TV show where a conventionally attractive (but less intellectual) character gets help wooing a sophisticated lover from a less popular (but more eloquent) friend? Well that (arguably overused) plotline is inspired by a late nineteenth century play called “Cyrano de Bergerac” by Edmond Rostand. Much respect to Susan Estelle Jansen for being explicit with the reference! Cory and Shawn read the play in Turner's class while  accidentally helping Frankie woo Harley Keiner's girlfriend. Oh, and Alan learns that a trash compactor is not a gift for an anniversary, but rather, for a Tuesday. Cheers!

That said, we had to get a bonus episode in to help with your weekly theatre fix, so below is our interview with the two stars of the forthcoming West End transfer of Cyrano de Bergerac, Adrian Lester and Susannah Fielding, who will be returning to the roles of Cyrano and Roxane for the Noël Coward run of Edmond Rostand's play, adapted by Simon Evans and Debris Stevenson. In the interview, the pair discuss reinterpreting the role of Roxane, why a nose had to be shown on stage and the different rhyming structure bedded into the text. Oh – and if you're looking for the project Lester refers to, it's the Dartmouth Scar Experiment. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Contemporary French and Francophone Futuristic Novels: The Longing to be Written and Its Refusal (Palgrave Macmillan, 2022) sheds a new light on the metafictional aspects of futuristic and science fiction novels, at the crossroads of information and media studies, possible worlds theories applied to cognitive narratology, questions related to the criticism of post-humanity, and, more broadly, contemporary French and Francophone literature. It examines the fictional minds of characters and their conceptions of resistance to the anticipated worlds they inhabit, particularly in novels by Pierre Bordage, Marie Darrieussecq, Michel Houellebecq, Amin Maalouf, Jean-Christophe Rufin, Antoine Volodine, and Élisabeth Vonarburg. It also explores how corporal postures serve as a matrix for philosophical quests in novels by Amélie Nothomb, Alain Damasio, and Romain Lucazeau. More specifically, from the fictional readers' points of view, it provides a critical approach to the mythologies of writing, in the wake of the French philosophical tales by authors including Cyrano de Bergerac and Voltaire, to question the traditionally expressed formulations of the mythologies of writing, that is, of the metaphors of the book (the book of life, nature, and the world), to rethink the idea of a humanity within its limits. Guest Emmanuel Buzay is currently working as an international technical expert for the Modern Language Association and the French Embassy in the US, having previously held appointments at UMass Amherst and the University of Connecticut. In addition to this monograph, he has published book chapters on topics from Frankenstein to Michel Houellebecq, and his articles have appeared in Nouvelles Études Francophones, Res Futurae, and Contemporary French and Francophone Studies. Host Gina Stamm is Associate Professor of French at The University of Alabama, with research concentrated on the environmental humanities and speculative literatures of the 20th and 21st centuries, from Surrealism to contemporary science fiction and feminist utopias, in Metropolitan France and the francophone Caribbean, with a book manuscript under review on posthumanist ecological engagement in the surrealist movement.

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for April 8, 2026 is: panache • puh-NAHSH • noun In simplest terms, panache refers to lively grace and style; it appears in contexts in which words like verve and flair are also applied. // The cast of the play was excellent—even those playing supporting characters acted with great panache. See the entry > Examples: “The star appeared as an airline pilot, twirling her way through baggage reclaim while shrugging off a bevy of useless men—a surgeon, a priest, a magician, an astronaut. It made absolutely no sense, but she delivered it with such panache that it barely mattered—even when she ended the performance by pulling a dove out of a top hat.” — Mark Savage et al., BBC, 2 Feb. 2026 Did you know? Few literary characters can match the panache of French poet and soldier Cyrano de Bergerac, from Edmond Rostand's 1897 play of the same name. In his dying moments, Cyrano declares that the one thing left to him is his panache, and that assertion at once demonstrates the meaning of the word and draws upon its history. In both French and English, panache (which traces back to Late Latin pinnaculum, “small wing”) originally referred to a showy, feathery plume on a hat or helmet. Our familiar figurative sense debuted in the first English translation of Rostand's play, which made the literal plume a metaphor for Cyrano's unflagging verve even in death. In a 1903 speech Rostand himself described panache: “A little frivolous perhaps, most certainly a little theatrical, panache is nothing but a grace which is so difficult to retain in the face of death, a grace which demands so much strength that, all the same, it is a grace … which I wish for all of us.”
