Es sind die Wochen der Unruhen bei „Geschichten aus der Geschichte“! In dieser Folge sprechen wir über Ausschreitungen in New York, die am 10. Mai 1849 mehr als 20 Menschen das Leben gekostet haben. Ausgelöst wurde der Aufstand durch den Streit zweier Schauspieler, die an diesem Abend, nur wenige Straßen voneinander entfernt, auf der Bühne standen und die Hauptrolle in einer der berühmtesten Tragödien der Theatergeschichte spielten: Macbeth von William Shakespeare. Der eine, Edwin Forrest, war der erste US-amerikanische Star, der andere, William Macready, einer der bekanntesten britischen Schauspieler seiner Zeit. Wir sprechen darüber, wie es kam, dass dieser Streit mehr als 10.000 Menschen mobilisiert hat und warum es eigentlich um viel mehr ging: Nämlich um einen sozialen Konflikt zwischen Upperclass und Working Class und die Frage nach einer eigenständigen US-amerikanischen Kultur. Das in der Folge erwähnte Buch heißt „The Shakespeare Riots“ von Nigel Cliff. **AUS UNSERER WERBUNG** Du möchtest mehr über unsere Werbepartner erfahren?

The second-bloodiest riot in the history of New York was touched off by a dispute between two Shakespearean actors. Their supporters started a brawl that killed as many as 30 people and changed the institution of theater in American society. In this week's episode of the Futility Closet podcast we'll tell the story of the Astor Place riot, "one of the strangest episodes in dramatic history." We'll also fertilize a forest and puzzle over some left-handed light bulbs.

Tom Sutcliffe talks to the academic Simon Morrison about the remarkable story of the Bolshoi ballet: a 250 year history that encompasses being the pride of Tsarist Russia to state control by Stalin to the scandal of acid attacks in the 21st century. Ismene Brown explores the different styles which set apart the Russian corps de ballet from its British counterpart. Art and politics are also at the forefront of Nigel Cliff's story of the Texan pianist Van Cliburn, who for a short time bridged the divide between the two superpowers during the Cold War, and the curator Edith Devaney explains how the CIA used Abstract Expressionism to promote the US.
