Day Of Pleasure, A
Day Of Pleasure, A
Synopsis:
Writing in Yiddish, though fluent in several other languages (Polish, Hebrew, English) Isaac Bashevis Singer was, in some respects, just this kind of custodian, and the tales offered to us in this staging of extracts from his autobiographical work, A Day of Pleasure, are crafted remembrances from his boyhood in the Jewish quarter of early 20th century Warsaw. The Useful Donkey's production places the audience around the "campfire" of Singer's study in his New York apartment (an armchair, a bookcase, and a writing desk forming almost a grotto for the telling of stories-nicely designed by Anna Gooch). It is 1978, and the writer is packing his suitcase and waiting for a taxi to take him to the airport. He has been invited to Stockholm to receive the Nobel Prize for Literature. The fourth wall comes down from the moment the actor takes the stage; the conceit is that Singer (played by Stuart Richman) will share some stories with us before it is time for him to leave. - http://www.britishtheatreguide.info/reviews/a-day-of-pleasu-liverpool-playh-9429
