Sinopse

Paul Claudel's "Tête-d'Or" is a profound theatrical exploration of the human spirit, imbued with rich symbolism and poetic language that reflect the author's deep theological and philosophical beliefs. Set against the backdrop of a mythic landscape, the play delves into themes of love, idealism, and the interplay between the divine and the earthly. Claudel employs a unique blend of lyrical dialogue and dramatic tension, crafting a narrative that is both intellectually stimulating and emotionally resonant, inviting audiences to ponder their own existential journeys. Claudel, a French poet, playwright, and diplomat deeply influenced by his Catholic faith, composed "Tête-d'Or" during a period of personal spiritual awakening. His extensive travels and exposure to diverse cultures profoundly shaped his worldview, which is evident in the intricate characterization and moral complexities presented within the play. As a member of the avant-garde literary movement, Claudel stands out for his ability to intertwine personal conviction with universal themes, reflecting his belief in the transformative power of art. Recommended for scholars and lovers of French literature alike, "Tête-d'Or" offers readers a compelling dive into Claudel's artistic vision. It promises an intellectually rewarding experience, as it challenges not only the conventions of theater but also the depths of human understanding, making it an essential addition to any literary canon.

    I am staring at a blank piece of paper, wondering what to write. Where do I begin? My mind begins to wander-pleasant thoughts of Disney's Fantasia dance in my head. The dancing hippopotamus comes to mind, and this made me laugh. The result: I penned a poem on the hippopotamus from which a chapbook was born: The Usefulness of Hippopotamus: A Humorous Chapbook for Trying Times. 
    One cannot imagine a world without humor. Without humor, the world will be dark, cold, and a sad place, tragically lacking joy, cheerfulness, and laughter. 
    Humor is medicine. During rough times, humor will help lighten and lessen physical and mental anxiety. 
    In challenging times, I chose humor. During the Pandemic, I had to deal with my bladder cancer. In my struggle not to get depressed or dwell in negativity, to find solace, contentment, and peace, I chose to seek out beauty and laugh. 
    In search of happiness, the humor worked its charm, resulting in a treasure chest of joy. So, I wrote my chapbook, The Usefulness of Hippopotamus: A Humorous Chapbook for Trying Times and discovered humor even among the hippopotami! 
    You can, too. 
    Peace & flowers. Love & light. 
    Vincent J. Tomeo, Author/Poet

    'Maybe it's in the air. Maybe it's the weather. Maybe it's the pace of life. Maybe it's breathing in that black soot everyday on the tube. Maybe it's commuting. Maybe it's the cultural consciousness. Maybe it's being a millennial. Maybe it's the climate crisis. Maybe it's the patriarchy.'
    When 'intimidating' Rachel and eternal 'nice guy' Nick meet at an awkward work Christmas party, what was meant to be a one-night-stand becomes a sexual odyssey of self-discovery… and mutual destruction.
    Adrift, isolated and insecure, they scramble for new ways to connect. Can some playful, passionate pegging provide a pathway through the pitfalls of modern relationships and present the possibility of a deeper bond?
    A penetrating comedy about the search for sexual knowledge, true love and top-notch Tupperware, Lisa Carroll's play The Misandrist was first produced by Metal Rabbit Productions at the Arcola Theatre, London, in May 2023.
