Coriolan/us; Troilus and Cressida - review

858 Picketston Hangar, RAF St. Athan, Vale of Glamorgan, Swan, Stratford-upon-Avon

is two years, almost to the day since Mike Pearson and Mike Brookes Aeschylus Brecon Beacons. Now they face a huge success for the new national touring theater Wales. They met Shakespeare

Coriolanus

with unfinished version of Bertolt Brecht's work and put it today, and the comedy crowd and not the watchful eye of celebrity worship . We used to stage an airplane hangar at RAF 1930 - a cathedral dedicated to the fight and flight - on the outskirts of Cardiff. They produced a memorable political and personal drama:. Rico strong and sound offers the experience is captured, overwhelmed and yet intimately spoken. Drifts public (which is a tower performance) in a vast and noisy, but trapped in a bubble of sound: listen to speech through headphones. Print job from the crowd, at first indistinguishable from members of public vans racing around the periphery in trailers informally onstage spectators become actors, waiting for news and analysis of the facts, quietly intensity. The whirlwinds of action through the building (divided only by a small masonry wall), sometimes wrongfooting an audience that may be looking elsewhere and do not always know where the speakers, speaking urgently in his ears, reality . Sometimes - a point on the news coverage is light but decisive - it is easier to see an event on giant screens that dominate the wall, to see the event live: things, after all, are more clear when confusion arose

inflexible iron, concrete and cement shed, where surfaces and sounds are very hard and rough, all the reasons for the action and the verse of a game was set up succinctly in to TS Eliot and forensic last year's film Ralph Fiennes. Fluorescent lighting increases the hardness, and when these bands suddenly darkened, dark, quilted by small red lights helmet public is both sweet and enigmatic: how we cope when it is not directed by the glare screens speech is uniformly excellent - for as spittingly clear therefore quite natural - it is not only false, but impossible to select a player at the peak above the other. Rings each output line, all the arguments about democracy, heroes, politicians hug home visits. Everyone plays together, as if their lives depended on it.

The result is an exceptional production that highlights several important points in the theater today. First, the site-specific theater does not necessarily mean that the word is overwhelmed by fear visual: the delivery of words can be as precise as exciting as a space in an indescribable. Secondly, we are in an era where Shakespeare is bitter sweet to our ears. Coriolanus

comes on the heels of the glorious rebirth of Olivier de

, a work whose exile, growling,'s Coriolanus is so similar to the two dramas are seen as two parts of a whole. Third, these offers brilliant National Theatre Wales (no you saw never forget

National Theatre Wales's Coriolan/us: ready for take-off

Mike Pearson and Mike Brooks are constantly pushing the limits of what can be achieved in the theater specific sites. So what do you have planned for your mash-up of Shakespeare and Brecht in an airplane hangar?

In an abandoned warehouse on the outskirts of Cardiff, which seems to be the slowest car chase in history happens. A hike black Volvo estate on the concrete floor majority, followed by a white van beaten. When both vehicles stopped, a group of actors out, followed closely by director Mike Pearson. "Yes, the Volvo face," you do. "Much better." Then he looks at me. "I'm not sure that this is what Shakespeare had in mind."

Since 1997, Pearson and his co-director Mike Brookes, on site, have gained a reputation as two of the most adventurous theatremakers in Britain, giving life to ideas that the performance is in the theater, part land art, multimedia event part and part unclassifiable. The first five miles, in 1998, was a preamble to the west across Wales, inspired by the 1820 riots that followed an attempt to develop the region Englishman, a live radio broadcast of the work is transmitted by a station radio 50 miles. Later that year came the smoking gun, "a statement" on the site of a famous unsolved murder Cardiff, for the general public gathered around a car hi-fi to see what was happening.

two summers ago, for his extensive work to date, Pearson / Brookes opened the inaugural season of National Theatre Wales staging of Aeschylus' The Persians in a camp military training at Brecon Beacons - a model village built to train soldiers in FIBUA (Operations in Urban Terrain). Guardian called "site specific theater with a vengeance." The Telegraph "one of the most imaginative theater, powerful and disturbing the Year"

The new show, commissioned by NTW and the World Shakespeare Festival is a trace class: Coriolanus, which took place in the former RAF base. Called Coriolan / us, your version is said Pearson, an "infusion" of the study of Shakespeare's political and military power with Bertolt Brecht's Coriolanus, his attempt unfinished very Left to update the game, translated excerpts may overlap Shakespeare with a script

The project seems quite complicated - why staging in a tough environment? "We wanted to work in a great space," says Pearson. "It was partly to keep bowling over But it is also because we have been influenced by events in the world during the past year: .. revolution, emerging democracies" Brookes involved, looking at the hangar enormous: "These things happen in the streets - and this is an open space."

Space

is definitely the word to pass through it, the roof curved up like the ribs of a giant whale dissolve our words as we walk (echo lasts nine seconds, apparently). The public, 350 or less for each performance will be displayed with a radio headset, when you open the doors and big blue convoy Coriolanus (Volvo is yours) roared to the show begin

• Actors troupe
• "Rome" at one end, with "Anzio" on the other, every moment captured on video. Certain scenes will happen in three robbed caravans, others in the huge roof while fighting takes place in a corridor of wind block known as "Sniper Alley." The public will have the freedom to follow the actors in their movements, or watch the action on two giant screens, while listening to the Live audio signal. A moment, Pearson says, we can say safely away, and the next day you're in, "Every audience member will create a different mix of the issue for themselves." Brookes nods: "It will not be as easy to see a play somehow, but I want people to comply with the terms of the most direct way possible.".

Work

echo this strange feeling that pervades the coverage of many conflicts of the 21st century, from Libya to Egypt to Syria: Geopolitical distance combined with the intimacy often turns my stomach rolling news and pictures amateur. Everyone in this production will be watching others. The cast will wear costumes that look retro, but not openly ("We were a little influenced by the Nordic television drama," admits Pearson), allowing them to appear suddenly in the crowd, then mix again in. Even when it will not be properly scenes: Live images can be viewed from any camera at any time, which raises the intriguing possibility that the players adjust their microphones or sit and rest may be soon find themselves on the screen. "This is a great question," smiles Pearson. "The first performances will probably be a shock."

is easy to see how these tensions between the public and private sectors could inform Coriolanus, the story of a Roman general whose very successful attempts to adapt to civilian life ended in disaster , wearing a military invasion in the city where they once stood in the office. Set amid food riots, alternating turbulent crowd scenes and intimate moments, the game - even by the standards of Shakespeare - included a surprising variety of ways. In the 18th and 19th centuries, became a star vehicle for tragic actors, years later, has been interpreted as everything from Nazi propaganda (which was very popular in Germany during the Second World War) a warning Fascism (Laurence Olivier famous 1959 production culminates in the hero is hanging upside down, an echo of the execution of Mussolini). Last December, Ralph Fiennes, 12 years after having played the role in London theaters Almeida, you released film set in a conflict like the 1990 war Balkans.

Some say it is the best way to communicate across borders. But Nick Prueher, co-host of the party comedy sensation Sequence Found beg to differ. "I feel," he said, "that stupid videos could be the international language. Believe that this will translate well."

Pickett and Prueher

set the found footage festival in 2004 to raise funds for a documentary they were doing dirty country, a country singer obscene. Prueher was then a producer on The Late Show with David Letterman, where "part of my job was to locate materials embarrassing celebrities and former players." It was old and Pickett video Amateur. "We grew up together in a small Midwestern city, where there was not much to do out of boredom, we begin to find and show these videos to others, and to this day, it still seems like a joke "

• Since its public Pickett and Prueher FFF was made at the Just for Laughs Festival in Montreal, released 36 episodes of a television version of the satirical news website The Onion (where Pickett wrote), and published four DVDs. The program's success, says Prueher is due in part to the nostalgia of the 1980s and 90s, the high watermarks VHS. And despite concerns that after "eight years of scanning, you may be exhausted video rediscover disposal, will not tolerate the opening of the exhibition in digital images.

"Because the VHS format was new and accessible, there were many people who probably do not have much business behind the camera or in front of him, so that the bands. People did not know what was going to be, so just throwing ideas against the wall and tried things. "That's Rent-a-Friend comes in." There's a guy sitting in a room and say, 'Hello, my name is Sam, what's your name? Then there is a pause and is supposed to suspend disbelief and response. "Prueher not seem impressed. "It probably seemed a good idea at the time."

The shows have also ironic about the co-organizers, and updated "Where are they now?" images. Surprisingly, no issue has offended inclusion unsolicited, although passed by the hair. Winnebago Man - whose real name is Jack Rebney - was driven by a documentary filmmaker and invited one of the events Pickett and Prueher. "When he learned of this material has been doing the rounds, was very angry," says Prueher., But towards the end of the series, "to see people laugh folded, you could see a smile on his face come."

Introducing our new site: Human Rights and Liberties

Comment is free coverage of human rights and civil liberties has been improved and updated

When we launched

Comment is free Liberty Central site in January 2009, threats to individual rights and freedoms seemed a little different. The Labour government had planned to introduce compulsory identity document, CCTV has been a hot topic and the board seemed to enjoy extraordinary powers to monitor the activities of people. On the other hand, some things have not changed: Jack Straw described the parts of the Act on the rights of "bad" letter ", the right to a fair trial was threatened, and there were concerns about Government plans to collect information about individuals in a database.

Ideally we renovated Liberty Central shortly after legislation weak, but significant, the Act on the Protection of Freedoms, entered into the Book of the Law, May 1. This package is intended to allay fears about the retention of DNA, CCTV, police and the powers of local authorities and a number of other violations of individual freedom (including, highly commendable, has ignored the right of men convicted of sodomy conviction). But the threats to freedom concerns mutate and change. What treaty the United States and the United Kingdom, which saw UK citizens extradited for trial in the United States? Does the lawyer wiretapping scandal stronger for the right to privacy? People still have the right to protest important? Committee Charter is an organization hopelessly divided, or a serious threat to the Act human rights? We should be able to deport someone to a country where trial evidence against him may have been obtained under torture - the major challenge in the saga of Abu Qatada? Why the government wants to hold more hearings in secret?

We covered all these topics in Comment is free, but noted that "Liberty Central" was not the best title under which organized. First, the Tea Party movement in the United States - not a natural ally for the Guardian - has been appropriated expression. Second, there is a strong political tension between the words "human rights" and "civil liberties." The left, with its (usually) support instinctive Act rights, tend to gain weight for the first law, which prefers to speak of "responsibility" and would prefer a bill on HRA rights, chose the latter. Civil liberties are also an important aspect of American political debate. Both are essential and we tried to recognize in our new title, rights and freedoms.
