Sinossi

In "The Complete Poetical Works of Stephen Crane," readers encounter a comprehensive collection of Crane's poetry that reflects his innovative use of imagery and sound. This volume encapsulates the author'Äôs distinct literary style, characterized by a vivid emotional intensity and sparse yet evocative language that captures moments of human experience with sharp clarity. Set against the backdrop of late 19th-century American literature, Crane's work interacts with the themes of naturalism and modernism, illustrating the fragility of life and the complexities of existence through a diverse range of poetic forms'Äîlyrical, narrative, and free verse. Stephen Crane, renowned for his contributions to both poetry and prose, was born in 1871 and emerged as a leading figure of the American literary scene with his compelling narratives, notably "The Red Badge of Courage." The turbulence and stark realities of his time, including the Civil War and societal upheaval, profoundly influenced his writing. His experiences as a war correspondent and his deep engagement with urban life provided indelible insights into the human condition, which he masterfully distilled into his poetic works. This anthology is essential for readers who appreciate the intersection of poetic innovation and thematic depth. Crane's ability to convey profound existential questions within beautiful verse makes this collection not only a testament to his creative genius but also a rich resource for scholars and poetry enthusiasts alike. Delve into the emotional landscapes of Crane's poetry and experience the transformative power of his words.

    The language of Poetry is an art that most of us attempt at some point in our lives.  Although its commonplace exposure has been somewhat marginalised in today’s often fast-paced lives we all recognise good verse that can empathise with our thoughts or open us up to experience new things in new ways, to better understand and to enjoy the many strands of our lives. 
    But finding a starting point can be overwhelming, even off-putting, so in this series we offer up our Top 10 classic poets, who brim with talent and verse, on a range of subjects and themes that we can all enjoy. 
    At first glance, it’s easy to assemble.  But once you add those who simply have to be included then you already have too many and the perennially hard part of whittling them down to ten begins.  Each and every one of these chosen are masters of their art and craft.  Genius in every name.

    'She's chucked out like an old coat that nae langer fits him…'

    When the worlds of science-fiction and science-fact collide… extraordinary things can happen.
    Dave is the great-great grandson of H.G. Wells, author of the 1895 novella The Time Machine, a book that foretold (with suspicious accuracy) the future of the human species. What if the ideas in that book weren't entirely fiction? Right now, Dave and his friends Amy and Michael must set out on a journey through time… the journey of a lifetime!
    The Time Machine: A Comedy is (very loosely) adapted from H.G. Wells by Steven Canny and John Nicholson, whose previous adaptation of The Hound of the Baskervilles was a hit in the West End and subsequently for numerous companies worldwide. It was first produced in 2023 on a tour of the UK, before a run at Park Theatre, London, produced by Original Theatre and directed by Orla O'Loughlin.
    Fast-paced and wise-cracking, this riotous retelling zips from the nineteenth century to the end of the world, and (with any luck) back again. It will suit any theatre company looking for a time-bending adaptation of a well-loved story – and a surefire audience-pleaser.
