Würde wahnsinnig gerne in diesem Leben einmal »Travesties« (1974) von #TomStoppard sehen. Egal ob live oder Konserve. Soweit ich weiß, ist aber nie eine Aufführung aufgezeichnet oder für’s TV inszeniert worden.
Ich hoffe ja schwer, dass ›National Theatre Live‹ da mal eine bringt. »Hard Problem«, »Rosenkrantz & Güldenstern« und »Leopoldstadt« gab’s in den letzten Jahren schon.

Useless quote for 2 Feb:
"If you were handed power on a plate you'd be left fighting over the plate."
~ the character Jacek Kuron in "Squaring the Circle" by Tom Stoppard, 1984; "Squaring the Circle" was a docudrama broadcast on BBC Four in May 1984.

Terry Gilliam – „Brazil“ (1985)
Wenige Filme haben sich so tief in mein Gedächtnis gegraben, wie dieses Meisterwerk von Terry Gilliam. Für mich, damals auf Augenhöhe mit Ridley Scotts „Bladerunner (1982)“, hat er, als filmische Dystopie, mein Verständnis von Totalitarismus nachhaltiger geschärft, als fast alles, was nach ihm kommen sollte. Und lieben konnte ich ihn auch. Deshalb gehört das Wort hier dem Meister selbst… (ZDF)

Fascinating #InteractiveFiction "Gostak", a #TextAdventure where the text is - and player's commands must be - in an invented language to be puzzled out (https://if50.substack.com/p/the-gostak):
"This is the delcot of tondam, where gitches frike and duscats glake...
>frike
You’re no gitch.
>glake
What do you want to glake?
>duscat
You reb no duscats here. (A delcot without duscats? Hmm.)"
(Reminded of #TomStoppard's invented-language "Dogg's Hamlet", although there the performance gives clues.)
A brief review of “Leopoldstadt” on Broadway
Executive summary: "Leopoldstadt" is a good but not great play and certainly not one of Tom Stoppard's better scripts. Standing ovations no longer have any meaning on Broadway. COVID is not over despite the fact that theater audiences want to pretend it is.

Seeing #Leopoldstadt by #TomStoppard on #Broadway with my uncle for his birthday. #Masked, recently #vaxxed, and with #Enovid sprayed an hour ago. Nervous, but the #COVID numbers are as good as they're likely to be for a long time, and my uncle doesn't have many opportunities left to go to the theater. Family considerations are part of risk calculations.
