Charles Ludlam's Punch Show Since his demise in 1987, Charles Ludlam, a key Þgure in the N.Y. avant- garde theatre during the'70s and '80s, playwright, performer, author, teacher, and fearless leader of the Ridiculous Theatre has become an increasingly important inþuence on continuing experimental theater efforts of the Absurdist strain. Since Ludlam credited his exposure at age 6 to a Mineola, N.J.fairground Punch and Judy show, as the start of his lifelong quest for"supreme" theatre, his own Obie-recognized Punch show, produced for children in Manhattan on West 11th St. starting in 1975 is worth remembering. Compared to his "camp" burlesques derived from the styles and genres of the last 200 years of popular theatre, including opera, Ludlam's Punch show was rather traditional, even if his performance was introduced by a "grande dame" puppet claiming to be an exiled member of the Moscow Art Theatre. profwill.spymac.net /Puppetry/Ludlam.html   (757 words)

Fanny Kemble Her parents were Charles Kemble, actor-manager of the Covent Garden Theatre, and the French comedienne, Marie-Thérèse Decamp. The Kembles saw themselves as artists rather than actors, and Fanny was educated genteelly in Paris, her first aspirations being for literature rather than the theatre. Born in Lon­don in 1809 into the Kemble clan, which dominated the theatre with talent and numbers, she showed early signs of an independence and energy that despite her height — she was under five foot — would often label her “masculine”. www.arlindo-correia.com /200705.html   (2582 words)

Royal Circus / Surrey Theatre, Blackfriars Road, London It was first opened in 1782 by Charles Hughes and Charles Dibdin, the song writer, and was called "The Royal Circus," and the history of the old place is interesting, apart from the fact that it stood on the site where the once famous Surrey now stands. Twelve years later Charles Hughes, the "strong man," entered into partnership with Charles Dibdin, the song writer, and raised a building costing fifteen thousand pounds, near the obelisk in Blackfriars Road, which was opened under the name of the Royal Circus. It was built in 1782 by Charles Dibdin the poet; in 1805 it was burned to the ground like its successor. www.arthurlloyd.co.uk /surrey.htm   (2582 words)

Book Review-65.1-Sawyer Kean's mission to educate the theatre patrons is evidenced even in the playbill notes in which he theorizes and justifies his productions. Schoch first defends Kean by suggesting that "transforming . . . antiquarian practice into cultural production was not a demeaning role for the mid-Victorian theatre" (63), and he contends that, for the theatre as an institution, it was far more important for Kean to be accepted as a historian rather than as an actor. Schoch contends that Kean's early production of King John in New York in 1846 anticipates many of the characteristics of later Kean productions: 176 costumes, 15,000 square feet of painted scenery, and a production cost of $12,000. www.samla.org /sar/00wSawyer.html   (4411 words)

Charles Ludlam's "Reverse Psychology" directed by Robert Salerno Ludlam was a true theatre revolutionary, but, unlike those pretentious artists of his time whom he rejected, he was a great student and lover of theatre history. Ludlam’s particular genius lay in the fact that he was able to lay a long-standing theatre tradition on its head- another paradoxical reversal that delighted him so. It is a wickedly funny satire that mercilessly lampoons two of Ludlam’s favorite targets, the avant-garde Soho/Warhol art world of the 1960’s (of which Ludlam took part briefly) and contemporary sexual mores (of which Ludlam took part extensively). home.san.rr.com /vantagetheatre/Ludlam.html   (729 words)
