Notes: -

Synopsis: The dinner table is laid for five but significantly only one of the places is provided with a wine glass, and only one character is named in the cast list, insofar as Woman can be considered a name, we are in some realm of fantasy, though the precise nature of Woman's fantasy takes some time to emerge. She knows she is to be the only diner. She scampers up the stairs to let the first two in, and chatters to them in a bright hostessy manner, sipping from an invisible glass (not the one on the table). But then the hand forgets it is meant to be holding a glass and clutches her arm, and it becomes certain that the guests, like the glass, are figments of her imagination. She is alone, and the interest of the play becomes one of deciding what sort of loneliness she is in.

Synopsis: I belong nowhere.' Obsessed with power and fame, Gustav Mahler rejects his Jewish background and his friends with devastating consequences. Gustav Mahler (1860-1911), a composer and conductor of passion and genius, was born in Bohemia and faced a lifetime of prejudice - 'I'm homeless. Not once but three times. First, a native of Bohemia in Austria. Second, an Austrian among Germans. And third, a Jew in the rest of the world'. But in 1897, in order to be granted the prestigious position of Director of the Vienna Court Opera, Mahler decided to convert to Catholicism. In time, however, as his world collapsed, he came to believe he was being made to pay a dreadful price for his ruthless ambition.
