Episode 085: The Real Thing by Tom Stoppard Host: Douglas Schatz Guest: Mark Lawson 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. Tom Stoppard is renowned for his intellectual wit and playful dramatic form, both of which are certainly on show in The Real Thing, but the play also explores more personal emotional territory: on what constitutes the real thing in love, politics and art. As we record this episode, a new production of the play is on stage at the Old Vic theatre in London. My guest to help us navigate the romantic entanglements and structural twists in the play is the renowned arts journalist, Mark Lawson.

Recorded live at the Theakston Old Peculier Crime Writing Festival 2023. Jeffery Deaver is the author of 42 novels, sold in 150 countries and translated into over 25 languages. He has sold over 150 million books worldwide. All very impressive but the numbers barely begin to tell the story of a storied career. Deaver is a maestro of suspense with precious few equals. From his debut Manhattan is My Beat through The Bone Collector to his latest, Hunting Time, he has created a succession of expertly plotted novels, each gripping and ingenious, each racing along fuelled by pace, originality, invention and heart. He has given his legion of readers a series of memorable protagonists including Lincoln Rhyme, Kathryn Dance and Colter Shaw. Each leap from the page, crafted at the fingertips of a master storyteller. Jeffery Deaver is interviewed by broadcaster and author Mark Lawson. Podcast music by Joseph McDade.

Julian attempted to abolish the recently established state religion of Christianity and replace it with the worship of the ancient, pagan gods. The play is brimming with action and ideas, but is rarely performed. Rana Mitter discusses Ibsen's play and the history and religious ideas behind it with theatre critic and writer, Mark Lawson; historian and author of Pax, Tom Holland; Nicholas Baker-Brian, a theologian; and, Catherine Nixey, a journalist at the Economist and author of The Darkening Age: The Christian Destruction of the Classical World.

A lifelong smasher of glass-ceilings, Lady Hale is an inspirational figure admired for her historic achievements and for the causes she has championed. As President of the Supreme Court, Lady Hale won global attention in finding the 2019 prorogation of Parliament to be unlawful. Yet that dramatic moment was merely the pinnacle of a career as a pioneering reformer, which saw her become the first woman and the youngest person to be appointed to the Law Commission; the first and only woman to become a Lord of Appeal in Ordinary; and the first woman to serve on the newly created Supreme Court, serving as President from 2017 to 2020. She is interviewed live by Mark Lawson as part of Raworths Harrogate Literature Festival

No one combines crime fiction, the gothic and the supernatural quite like John Connolly. He is the master of his trade, a scalpel in one hand and a bludgeon in the other, writing beautiful prose and brutal people. As well as several blistering standalones, Connolly's much-loved Charlie Parker series now runs to 19 novels, each more terrifying than the one before. His latest, The Nameless Ones, has a breathless international chase at its centre, starting with three butchered bodies arranged around the crucified remains of a fourth. John Connolly will be interviewed by journalist, broadcaster and author Mark Lawson.
Kathy Reichs, one of the most popular and biggest selling crime writers of the 21st century, is the creator of the Temperance Brennan series, which now numbers 22 books and has been translated into over 30 languages.

This incredible wealth of experience has made her the queen of forensic crime. Kathy Reichs is interviewed by journalist, broadcaster and author Mark Lawson.

The ghost of Mrs Thatcher walks through the Tory party despite the fact she left office in 1990 and died in 2013. Her spirit is evoked and some emulate her style of dress ..... but when David Freeman interviewed Mark Lawson about his collection of stories, attitudes were very different. At the time of the recording John Major was Prime Minister and Mark had written a book called Bloody Margaret. It's a satire.

Mississippi leaders recognize and honor the state's Veterans.Then, Mississippi Supreme Court justices are deliberate a case involving the Governor and Speaker of the House.Plus, after a Southern Remedy Health Minute, Vice President Elect Kamala Harris is a trailblazer for women of color. We hear from a regional leader of her sorority - Alpha Kappa Alpha.Segment 1:Today is Veterans Day, a day to honor the men and women who have served, and are currently serving, in the United States Armed Forces. It was first observed as Armistice Day following World War I. During a ceremony honoring veterans yesterday, Major General Janson Boyles of the Mississippi National Guard, remarked on the importance of a nation remembering its defenders. Speaker of the House Phillip Gunn was also on hand. He says its important to consider the sacrifices veterans make for the nation.Retired Veterans, like Mark Lawson, share the sentiment. Lawson, who serves as the Director of Veteran Cemeteries for the VA shares more about his experience, and how important recognition of service is with our Michael Guidry.Segment 2:A case to prevent Mississippi's governor from vetoing portions of appropriations bills is being deliberated by the State Supreme Court. Republican Governor Tate Reeves is challenging a lower court ruling that found he doesn't have the authority to veto sections of legislative budget bills. The issue before the Mississippi Supreme Court began In August, when House Speaker Philip Gunn and Speaker Pro Tempore Jason White both Republicans, sued the governor for vetoing portions of budget bills arguing it's unconstitutional.Segment 3:Southern Remedy Health MinuteSegment 4:Vice President Elect Kamala Harris is looked at by many as a trailblazer. Stepping into the second highest executive position in the country - she is the first woman, first Black American, first Carribean American and First Indian American to hold the office.

For some Rudolf Kastner is a hero, for others a traitor. Mark Lawson explores the cultural retellings of a story that began in Nazi occupied Hungary in 1944. At the time Kastner, a lawyer and a journalist, was deputy chairman of the Relief and Rescue Committee. He negotiated with Adolf Eichmann to save Jewish lives but did he pay for them with other Jewish lives? In this programme, Mark Lawson talks to those within Israel - including the playwright Motti Lerner, the Chief Historian of Yad Vashem Professor Dina Porat, and the literary critic Professor Dan Laor - who have all wrestled with Kastner's story and the issues it raises.

English Diction is our topic this week, covering the texts to "The Roadside Fire" and the aria "Iris, hence away" from Händel's Semele with vocal coach Mark Lawson, contralto Rebecca Raffell and tenor Donald George. Our focus is on what to do with Rs, WH words, the crazy spelling in English and some differences between American Standard and British Received pronunciation. Some of the new phonetic symbols referred to on this episode are [ɝ] and [ɚ] (for those Rs in diphthongs and triphthongs) and [ɒ] (for the British open back rounded vowel). The Roadside Fire is the 11th poem in Robert Louis Stevenson's Songs of Travel and Other Verses (although most of us know it as the 3rd song in Ralph Vaughan Williams' song cycle Songs of Travel). Most of Stevenson's novels, poems and essays are in the public domain and available as free downloads at Project Gutenberg. Here is a libretto for Händel's Semele, for Juno's Aria, scroll down to Accompagnato Nr. 31 "Awake Saturnia from thy lethargy" and Air Nr. 34 "Iris, hence away", skipping over Iris' Recitative in the middle. iTunes University is a free way to "visit" university classes--they have topics ranging from all the classical to modern languages, history, Fine Arts, mathematics, humanities... pretty much anything that universities offer, there's a class on iTunes U for it. Just go to your iTunes Store and look across the top for the heading iTunes U. I also mention the term "Lingua franca" at the beginning of the podcast, and I learned that phrase from iTunes U! Just as a reminder, I refer quite a bit to the two main books on English Diction, Madeleine Marshall's The Singer's Manual of English Diction which has been the standard for many years, and Kathryn LaBouff's Singing and Communicating in English, which covers the differences between American Standard, British Received and the Mid-Atlantic Dialect in great detail.
