MILLER, JONATHAN Subsequent performances.
New York Viking, 1986 067081234X / 9780670812349 Hard Cover
253 pages, well illustrated (some in color), cloth, dj, very good. 8-1/2 by 11 inches. 1st American edition. From the dj: 'In this remarkable new book, Jonathan Miller draws on his more than twenty years in the performing arts to illustrate and explore the question of the 'afterlife' of a dramatic work of art, when it has outlasted its creator and when time begins to impose awkward problems of re-creation and interpretation... Mr. Miller draws on his own experiences as a theater, opera, and television director to illuminate the questions of subsequent performances; his inquiry covers matters of interpretation and line reading, of the visual look of stage productions, of how one translates a work to another medium (for example, from the stage to television)). He focuses particularly on masterpieces of Mozart, Chekhov, and Shakespeare, but his comments range over a marvelous variety of human and artistic experience. Finally, he approaches his subject from yet a different angle and examines what happens when one attempts the impossible: when one makes a movie out of a novel, as he did with Alice In Wonderland. From the Columbia Encyclopedia, Sixth Edition: Jonathan Wolfe Miller, 1934-, English director, actor, writer, and physician. Forsaking medicine, Miller made his first London (1961) and New York (1962) stage appearances as coauthor and actor in the zany satirical revue Beyond the Fringe. Miller directed The Old Glory in New York and Danton's Death, The School for Scandal, and The Merchant of Venice for the National Theatre. He has written and directed radio shows, written theater and art criticism, and in 1969 toured the United States as director of the Oxford and Cambridge Shakespeare Company. Since 1974 he has directed operas, including the highly successful 1984 production of Verdi's Rigoletto for the English National Opera and his 1998 staging of Mozart's Marriage of Figaro (1998). He also wrote and hosted the television series The Body in Question (1978) and Madness (1991). As a director, he eschews elaborate productions and encourages his actors to attempt new interpretations of their roles.
