After having attended the recent audio described performance of ‘Ghosts' at the Lyric Hammersmith Theatre in London RNIB Connect Radio's Toby Davey caught up with Actor and RNIB Ambassador Victoria Smurfit, who's daughter is also visually impaired, to find out more about playing Helena in Gary Owen's version of Henrik Ibsen's ‘Ghosts' and also about access to theatre for blind and partially sighted people. Toby began by asking Victoria what the difference might be between the character Maud that Victoria plays in the Disney plus adaptation of ‘Rivals' and Helena in ‘Ghosts' or not. Then to talking about the touch tour prior to the audio described performance of ‘Ghosts' and what an added bonus it was for Toby and the other visually impaired theatre patrons to have Victoria and one of the other Actors on stage during the touch tour. With Toby expressing how important a touch tour is for him to get a real sense and feel of the set and space that Victoria and the rest of the cast are performing in. Before a discussion about theatre access generally Toby asked Victoria whether she thinks about her daughter at all when performing, knowing that a show is being audio described for blind and partially sighted people and whether going to the theatre is something they both share together. You will find more about access to the arts for blind and partially sighted people by visiting the following pages of the RNIB website - https://www.rnib.org.uk/living-with-sight-loss/community-connection-and-wellbeing/leisure/art-galleries-museums-and-theatres/ Image shows Victoria on the set of Ghosts, dressed in white and sat on a stylish brown leather sofa in front of a pale blue foggy background. Her hands are clasped over her knees and she is leaning forward and looking towards the camera.
This week Mickey-Jo headed to the Lyric Hammersmith in London to see GHOSTS, Gary Owen's new contemporary adaptation of the classic Henrik Ibsen play. In this new updated version, Victoria Smurfit stars as Helena Alving alongside Callum Scott Howells as her son Oz. This world premiere production re-situates this classic story into the modern day, and follows in the footsteps of similarly re-lensed classics in the Lyric's recent history including A Doll's House and Accidental Death of an Anarchist. Check out this full review to find out what Mickey-Jo thought of this play as a piece, its themes, and its relationship to the original text...• 00:00 | introduction 02:00 | adaptation 08:21 | overview / themes 14:32 | the writing 19:08 | performances•About Mickey-Jo:As one of the leading voices in theatre criticism on a social platform, Mickey-Jo is pioneering a new medium for a dwindling field.

In Throw Yourself Away: Writing and Masochism (Cambridge University Press, 2024), Julia Jarcho proposes that the desire to write is inextricably bound up with masochistic desires. In a series of readings that engage American and European works of fiction, drama, and theory from the late nineteenth through the early twenty-first centuries, Jarcho tests the limits of masochism as a pleasure-making economy. Reading Henry James, Henrik Ibsen, Mary Gaitskill, and Adrienne Kennedy alongside Sigmund Freud, Gilles Deleuze, Eve Kosofsky Sedgwick, Leo Bersani and others, Jarcho investigates the ways in which masochism rewrites and reinvigorates failures of desire, which critics have otherwise thought of as dead-ending masochism. Jarcho asks particularly difficult questions of masochism as a response to injurious social structures, which yield less uniformly white, searching, and uneasy views of both masochism and authorship. Throw Yourself Away reconsiders how writing and subjects are undone by the excesses and recesses of masochistic desire, which keeps the prospect of pleasure so painfully, so deliciously at bay.

Singapore acting royalty Neo Swee Lin and Lim Kay Siu sing their way into the Saturday Mornings Show studio to talk with host Glenn van Zutphen and co-host Neil Humphreys about their upcoming, Tony Award-nominated playplay "A Doll’s House, Part 2" with the Pangdemonium Theatre Company. They also discuss their storied careers locally and what it has been like to work with some of Hollywood's great actors, like Jody Foster. "A Doll’s House, Part 2 is a bold and brilliant play that is all at once a razor-sharp comedy full of belly laughs, a continuation of playwright Henrik Ibsen’s complex exploration of traditional gender roles, as well as a cunning contemporary take on the struggles inherent in all human relationships across time."

Bookwaves/Artwaves is produced and hosted by Richard Wolinsky. Links to assorted local theater & book venues Susanna Clarke: “Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell.” Susanna Clarke in 2006 Susanna Clarke, author of the classic fantasy novel, Jonathan Strange & Mr. Norrell, interviewed September 12, 2005 in the KPFA studios. Back in the fall of 2004, a new fantasy novel, Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell by a newcomer, Susannah Clarke, became an instant classic, finding its way to best-seller lists in the U.K. and United.States, and winning the Hugo Award for 2004's best novel at the 2005 World Science Fiction Convention. This interview with Susannah Clarke was recorded while on tour for the paperback edition of Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell, and has not aired in two decades. Both Christopher Hampton and Julian Fellowes took stabs at writing a film adaptation of Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell, but both were unable to translate the very long novel into a screenplay, and then New Line cancelled the project. It was eventually developed into a seven -part miniseries for the BBC, and aired in both the United States and Britain in 2015. It is now streaming on Amazon Prime. After the publication of Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell, and the awards, Susannah Clarke continued to work on the sequel, set in the same universe a few years later, but became bogged down, almost sentence by sentence, as chronic fatigue syndrome took its toll. By 2015, after visiting the set of the BBC production, she decided to go another route, and went back to another manuscript that likely pre-dated her best-seller. That novel, Piranesi, was published to mostly favorable reviews in 2020. She is now working on a third novel. Complete Interview. Dawn Porter Dawn Porter, documentary filmmaker, in conversation with host Richard Wolinsky, recorded September 11, 2023. Dawn Porter's work has appeared on ESPN, HBO, Netflix, PBS and other streamers. Her film Trapped, focusing on abortion clinics in the South, won a special prize at Sundance in 2016 along with a Peabody Award. Her 2013 documentary, Gideon's Army, her first film, focusing on public defender attorneys in the South, is now part of the US Deparment of State's American Film Showcase. She is also the director of John Lewis: Good Trouble, which focuses on the late Congressman and activist. Her recent projects are The Lady Bird Diaries, which was shown at SXSW Film Festival and the four part documentary series, Deadlocked: How America Shaped the Supreme Court, both of which can be found streaming on various platforms. Other recent projects include the short film Bree Wayy, about the life of Brionna Taylor, Luther: Never Too Much, about the late singer/songwriter Luther Vandross, and The Sing Sing Chronicles, about men wrongly incarcerated in Sing Sing prison.

主持：何一梵 （臺北藝術大學戲劇系副教授） 易卜生（Henrik Ibsen）是十九世紀末期歐洲最大的劇場現象，他的劇本重新點燃了知識份子對劇場的重視，引起廣泛的討論。他在作品中，大膽地針砭當時歐洲的社會問題。從《社會棟樑》起，開始批判維多利亞式的道德觀，使他聲名鵲起的《玩偶之家》，挑戰傳統男性主導的家庭架構，在《群鬼》因討論禁忌話題梅毒，引來社會輿論的大力批評，而使事業跌落谷底。以揭露溫泉浴場水源污染真相為題材的《人民公敵》，是易卜生對於何謂真理的叩問，是否「世界上最強壯的人是最能孤獨地佇立的人」嗎？ ———✨2024 NTT遇見巨人✨—— 10/25-27 柏林雷寧廣場劇院《人民公敵》
Man kan miste venskaber, familie og tryghed, hvis man afslører hemmeligheder. På den anden side kan man blive helt kvalt, hvis man holder på for mange. Teaterchef og instruktør, Liv Helm afslørede en stor hemmelighed i sin skønlitterære debut - romanen, 'Med hjertet i hånden', og det kostede hende dyrt. Det fortæller hun om i dagens program, hvor det også skal handle om den store norske dramatiker, Henrik Ibsen (1828-1906). Han var nærmest besat af hemmeligheder og deres afsløring i sine teaterstykker - og i sit personlige liv holdt han på en meget stor hemmelighed. Fokus for samtalen med Liv Helm er netop hendes nye opsætning af Ibsens 'Gengangere' (1881). Vært: Nanna Mogensen.
In the 1886 play “Rosmersholm,” written by the Norwegian playwright Henrik Ibsen, an increasingly polarized country leads to an increasingly polarized election that begins to tear a household apart. Now, a critically-acclaimed adaptation, directed by Chris Abraham, is being staged at Crow's Theatre in Toronto. Chris sits down with Tom to talk about what this politically-charged play can teach us about the upcoming elections in the U.S. and Canada.

Arnold Schönberg schrieb den Zyklus «Pierrot Lunaire» von März bis Mai 1912, pro Tag eine der insgesamt 21 Nummer. Die Schauspielerin und Sängerin Albertine Zehme hatte bei Schönberg einen Zyklus von Melodramen bestellt. Sie selbst war bekannt als Darstellerin grosser Frauenrollen, etwa von William Shakespeare oder Henrik Ibsen, ebenso als Sängerin von grossen Wagner-Partien. In dieser Doppelrolle interessierte sie sich natürlich für die Verbindung von gesprochenem Wort und Musik, eben des Melodrams. Einer Form, die damals sehr en vogue war. Schönberg schrieb eine Musik für Stimme und kleines Instrumentalensemble voller komplexer Strukturen und zugleich auch als «Ausdrucksmusik» verstanden. Einen «leichten, satirischen Ton» sollte das Ganze haben. In dieser Diskothek zum 150. Geburtstag von Arnold Schönberg sind die Sängerin Claudia Dieterle und der Musikwissenschaftler Anselm Gerhard zu Gast bei Benjamin Herzog.

The writer and political philosopher Lea Ypi talks about the impact on her of Henrik Ibsen's The Wild Duck (1884), which she first read when she was eight – thinking it was a children's book (it isn't!) – and has been returning to ever since. A play about family and betrayal, idealism and disappointment, temptation and self-destruction, is it also a parable about the illusions of politics? And how might it shake a person's faith?Sign up now to PPF+ to get ad-free listening and all our bonus episodes – coming soon a special bonus episode on Philip Roth's The Plot Against America www.ppfideas.com Next time: Helen Lewis on To Kill A Mockingbird Hosted on Acast.

(Gál. 5: 23).Una imagen vale más que mil palabras. «Ver» una acción transmite más que "oír" un sermón. Por eso Santiago dice: "Te mostraré mi fe con mis hechos" (2:18). La gente nos observa para ver si reflejamos a Dios. Y si existe algo que permite ver el carácter de Dios en nosotras es un estilo de vida con las cualidades de Gálatas 5: 22-23: «Amor, alegría, paz, paciencia, amabilidad, bondad, fidelidad, humildad y dominio propio». Son el fruto del Espíritu porque son la esencia del carácter divino; solo Dios puede producir en ti tal manera de ser. El amor. «Lo que cuenta es una fe activa por medio del amor» (Gál. 5: 6). Pero lejos de Dios, que es amor (1 Juan 4: 8), nuestro corazón tiende a los deseos de la carne, y eso se ve.La alegría. «Pido a Dios», dice Pablo, «que los llene completamente de alegría, [...] porque confían en él» (Rom. 15: 13). La alegría deriva de la confianza en Dios, que nos permite sufrir sin perder la esperanza. Esto, a la gente, no le pasa desapercibido.La paz. Dios es «el Dios de paz» (Rom. 15: 33). «Enemistades, pleitos, celos, iras, contiendas, divisiones» (Gál. 5: 20, RV95) derivan de otra fuente. «Busquemos todo lo que conduce a la paz» (Rom. 14: 19), porque da un testimonio contundente.La paciencia. «El Señor es paciente» (Sal. 103: 8), por eso nos exhorta a tener paciencia, soportándonos unos a otros (Efe. 4: 2) así como las realidades de la vida (Col. 1: 11).La amabilidad. «Si ven que alguien ha caído en algún pecado, ustedes que son espirituales deben ayudarlo a corregirse. Pero háganlo amablemente» (Gál. 6:1). Ese acto ablandará corazones endurecidos.La bondad. «El Señor es bueno» (Sal. 34: 8); quienes decidan imitarlo «serán hijos del Dios altísimo, que es también bondadoso con los desagradecidos y los malos» (Luc. 6: 35). Esos desagradecidos y malos quedarán impactados por tal bondad y querrán saber su origen, para ir personalmente a él.La fidelidad. «Lo que a un administrador se le pide es que sea fiel», dijo Jesús (1 Cor. 4: 2). Porque Dios es fiel, nosotras podemos serlo también. Y créeme, fidelidad no sobra en este mundo; es una imagen elocuente.La humildad. «Soy humilde», dice Jesús (Mat. 11: 29). Nuestra humildad lo reflejará a él porque, por naturaleza, somos egoístas.El dominio propio, que es la muestra más clara de que trabajamos nuestro interior.«Mil palabras no dejan la misma impresión que una acción». Henrik Ibsen.

Shelly Hudson is here with actors Maya Small and Azalea Hudson as we look ahead to the production of Henrik Ibsen's Hedda Gabler at the Maxfield Parrish Stage at the historic Plainfield Townhall May 23 - 26. We discuss the play, how it is a challenge, why this selection, the Victorian age, "break a leg", and lots more. Tickets are available through eventbrite.com
The critically acclaimed Canadian theatre director and actor Moya O'Connell is directing a new production of Henrik Ibsen's 1891 masterpiece “Hedda Gabler.” The play follows a woman named Hedda who's trapped in a loveless marriage as she struggles with the realities of domestic life. When her old flame comes back to town, she's driven to commit some manipulative and disturbing acts. Moya sits down with Tom to tell us more about the play, what makes Hedda such a timeless character, and her own experience of playing the iconic role in 2012.
Her powerful performances give voice to some uncomfortable truths. Lebanese playwright and director Chrystèle Khodr wades through the ruins of a society in her latest play "Ordalie", exploring the social, political and physical wreckage of her homeland and its history. She tells us more about the quest for justice in contemporary Lebanon, why 19th-century playwright Henrik Ibsen is a fitting contemporary inspiration and how making theatre in a crisis-ridden country is a constant endeavour of creativity and solidarity among artists.
Henrik Ibsen's “An Enemy of the People” is about halfway through its strictly limited run at The Circle in the Square Theatre having opened on March 18, the Sam Gold directed production will run through June 23. Caleb Eberhardt plays Hovstad, the editor of the town's newspaper - a character integral to the questions posed by the plot involving character, power, public opinion, and the always nuanced-laden exploration of “the greater good.”
How can a play about rural Norway in 1882 help us process the trauma of the COVID-19 pandemic? That's the question posed by Theater of War Productions, which is hosting readings of The Enemy of the People, by Henrik Ibsen—and then is leading intense community conversations immediately following the productions. Bryan Doerries, artistic director of Theater of War Productions, speaks to Dr. Josh Sharfstein about how this old Norwegian play speaks to the trauma experienced by the public health field and by community members during the pandemic. You can watch the Ohio productions live via Zoom and participate in the conversation afterwards on April 6 and 7 at 6pm. You can sign up for free under the events tab at http://theaterofwar.com.

Episode 077: An Enemy of the People by Henrik Ibsen Host: Douglas Schatz Guest: Kirsten Shepherd-Barr Welcome to The Play Podcast where we explore the greatest new and classic plays. Each episode we choose a single play to talk about in depth with our expert guest. We'll discuss the play's origins, its themes, characters, structure and impact. For us the play is the thing. Henrik Ibsen's play An Enemy of the People is a fable of truth and lies, politics and power, and the challenge and costs of pursuing an unpopular crusade to speak truth to power. It's a story of ‘fake news', manipulation of the media, the dangers of populism, and the environmental cost of capitalism. No wonder it strikes a chord in our time, for as we record this episode there are two major new productions of An Enemy of the People on the world stage. I'm delighted to welcome back to the podcast, Ibsen expert, Professor Kirsten Shepherd-Barr, who I was privileged to talk with in episode 74 on Ibsen's play Ghosts.
After numerous roles in high-profile televsion programmes like HBO's House of the Dragon and Netflix's The Crown, Matt Smith is returning to the West End in Henrik Ibsen's An Enemy of the People.Speaking to Today's Martha Kearney, the actor says he found the prospect of being on stage "frightening" at first, but wanted to work with German director Thomas Ostermeier.Martha also spoke to Thomas, who said the production of the play is about "becoming as attractive as a rock concert".Listen to the Today programme on Radio 4 and BBC Sounds: 6-9am Monday-Friday; and 7-9am on Saturdays.
