Beschreibung

Peccato veramente! Perché, come vedi, qua l'apparato ci sarebbe; il nostro vestiario si presterebbe a fare una bellissima comparsa in una rappresentazione storica, a uso di quelle che piacciono tanto oggi nei teatri. E stoffa, oh, stoffa da cavarne non una ma parecchie tragedie, la storia di Enrico IV la offrirebbe davvero. Mah! Tutti e quattro qua, e quei due disgraziati là (indica i valletti) quando stanno ritti impalati ai piedi del trono, siamo... siamo così, senza nessuno che ci metta su e ci dia da rappresentare qualche scena. C'è, come vorrei dire? la forma, e ci manca il contenuto!—Siamo peggio dei veri consiglieri segreti di Enrico IV; perché sì, nessuno neanche a loro aveva dato da rappresentare una parte; ma essi, almeno, non sapevano di doverla rappresentare: la rappresentavano perché la rappresentavano: non era una parte, era la loro vita, insomma; facevano i loro interessi a danno degli altri; vendevano le investiture, e che so io. Noi altri, invece, siamo qua, vestiti così, in questa bellissima Corte... —per far che? niente... Come sei pupazzi appesi al muro, che aspettano qualcuno che li prenda e che li muova così o così e faccia dir loro qualche parola.

    Khw? ja Shams-ud-D?n Mu?ammad ??fe?-e Sh?r?z? is commonly known to us as Hafiz, the Persian poet who was born in Shiraz, Iran in either 1315 or 1317.  The facts of much of his early life are unknown to us but it is said that, at an early age, he memorized many passages of the Quran and was therefore given the title of Hafiz, which means 'the memorizer or the safe keeper.'  
     
    Hafiz mainly wrote lyric poetry or ghazals - an ideal form for expressing the ecstasy of the divine and the intoxicating mystical union with God.  He was also outspoken on society’s hypocrisy but was supported by patronage during his lifetime from the court of Abu Ishak and succeeding regimes until, towards the end of his life, when he resided at the Court of Timur, more usually known to us as Tamerlane, the conqueror who founded the Timurid Empire in modern day Iran and Central Asia. 
     
    Certainly that support enabled Hafiz to devote himself to his writings. Surprisingly there is no definitive version of his collected works (or D?v?n); some editions run to a mere 573 poems others to just shy of a thousand.  However, their beauty and wordplay illuminate why Hafiz was admired so much throughout the Islamic world even during his own lifetime.  He remains one of the most celebrated of the Persian poets and his influence through poems, proverbs and, sayings can be felt to this day.  On various holidays, including 12th October in Iran, Hafiz Day is celebrated: Families will open his D?v?n at random and read aloud that poem, using it as a guide to what may happen next in their lives. 
     
    Hafiz died in 1390. His mausoleum, H?fezieh, is located in the Musalla Gardens in Shiraz.

    An unflinching play from exciting new writer and performer, Izzy Tennyson.
    Grotty is a dark and savage exploration of the London lesbian scene. A couple of little sad old basements that drip with sweat and piss, with second-hand noise pulsating from some gay-boy night upstairs. The women sit there in their uniformed black… and they are looking at you. They are not nice girls. But Grotty is not a nice story.
    The piece was premiered by Damsel Productions at The Bunker, London, in May 2018.
