Genre: | Translation | |||||
| Parts: | Male | 10 | Female | 5 | ||
Parts other: | - | |||||
Notes: | Original Playwright - Jean-Paul Sartre. Adapted from the play by Alexandre Dumas | |||||
Synopsis: | This cross-century collaboration is a romance, redolent with greasepaint and overflowing with the life of the theatre. Kean, the woman iscr, drinker and debtor, postures through life, never certain where life ends and acting begins. His private life is a public performance, a tragic-comedy about a man with an insatiable appetite for romantic adventure, an ego as big as a stage and an inability to rescue himself from jeopardy. Sartre's colourful play is a passionate, sexy, funny, full-blooded experience for anyone who loves Shakespeare, the theatre and great adventure. | |||||

Synopsis: | The play was first performed in Paris before the city had been liberated from the Nazis.hauser's translation has sexed up sartre's original by deploying tango as a form of subservice decandence, and invoking a repressive 1970's Argentina as the context for the story. | |||||
