The proposed book collects 24 interviews that I conducted with
German and British theatre artists over the period of 20 years. The
first set of interviews focuses on British actors, directors and
dramatists involved with Plays about Famous Artists. That section
complements the material discussed in my book with CSP,
Biographical Plays about Famous Artists. The second set of
interviews focuses on German actors and directors involved with
boulevard comedy theatre. That section complements the material
discussed in my book with CSP, Boulevard Comedy Theatre in Germany.
Interviews with two British theatre artists feature in the
interviews in Part III: David Ian Rabey combines his job as a
professor of Drama and Theatre at the University of Wales
Aberystwyth with an active career as a theatre actor, director and
dramatist. Mike Pearson is a performance practitioner and professor
of Performance Studies in the same university department. The final
part of the book provides a range of interviews both from the UK
and from Germany, starting off with Sir Richard Eyre's account of
his seminal production of Hamlet at the Royal Court in 1980. German
Director Heinz-Uwe Haus combines the legacy of Brecht (he trained
with some of Brecht's foremost disciples) and politics (Haus lived
and worked in the former German Democratic Republic-the
totalitarian regime's repression influenced his everyday life and
work considerably). Ursula Dinkgrafe, finally, represents both
personal legacy and the numerous well-trained and highly capable
and successful actors across the world who do not (want to) attain
star-status.
