Steven Berkoff is a playwright, director and actor largely disregarded by theater scholars. Since the 1960s, however, this notorious Cockney enfant terrible and "scourge of the Shakespeare industry" has left an imprint on modern British theatre that has been as impossible to ignore as his in-your-face stage presence. Steven Berkoff and the Theatre of Self-Performance, the first thorough and in-depth study of this contentious artist, examines the wide-ranging strategies adopted by Berkoff in the construction and projection of his larger-than-life public persona.

The Modern Monologue in two volumes, one for men and one for women, is an exciting selection of speeches drawn from the landmark plays of the 20th century. The great playwrights of the British, American and European theatre-- and the plays most constantly performed on stage throughout the world--are represented in this unique collection. Monologues of all types--both serious and comic, realistic and absurdist--provide a dynamic challenge for all actors: the student, the amateur and the professional. A fuller appreciation of each speech is enhanced by the editors' introduction and commentaries that set the plays and individual speeches in their dramatic and performance contexts.

Changing Performance written by D. Keith Peacock and has been published by Peter Lang this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2007 with Drama categories.

This book examines changes in performance practice in mainstream British theatre since 1945 which focus on the attempt by directors and companies to replace the realism of inter-war theatre with more physically and vocally expressive acting and ensemble approach to production processes. The aim was to replace the capitalist line-management approach of the commercial theatre with a more democratic collaborative structure that would encourage contribution to the creation of the performance text by the director, writer, actors, designers and technicians. Theatre is viewed as a mode of socio-cultural practice and its evolution in Britain during the second half of the twentieth century is explored in the context of changes in cultural perception, state subsidy, the social status of theatre, technology, and aesthetic influences from abroad. The study focuses not on dramatic texts but on mainstream productions that represent stages in an aesthetic evolution. They include Terence Rattigan's The Browning Version (1946); Theatre Workshop's A Taste of Honey (1958) and Oh What a Lovely War (1963); The Royal Shakespeare Company's The Caucasian Chalk Circle (1962), The Wars of the Roses (1963), The Theatre of Cruelty Laboratory (1964), The Marat-Sade (1964) and US (1966); Steven Berkoff's Metamorphosis (1969) and Complicite's The Three Lives of Lucy Cabrol (1994).

Short Synopsis on the book: Men and Women you love to hate or What’s his name I really hate him’ (As you can see, above; I have two possible titles; but I can’t decide which one to use?) This is how I envisage the book cover the front of the book; the character is a cartoon representation of a ‘Baddie’ based on Dick Dastardly from ‘Whacky Races’ which is originally based on a Victorian actor Todd Slaughter who always played villains in plays and films. The Men & Women you love to hate Or What’s his name? I really hate him! Main Body of the book The character of the villain is an integral part of the history of ‘story telling’ in books, fairy tales in the cinema and on the stage. All cultures that have some form of storytelling tradition, in whatever language the usual premise is of good versus evil or a good person against a bad person. In the English literary tradition follows on from Chaucer in the 14th century and Shakespeare in the 16th century. Shakespeare’s genius was his skill in making his characters believable and, motivated by the things that motivate all human beings. They react to their circumstances and to people in different ways. Some of Shakespeare’s characters act in cruel and unpleasant ways; some kill, deceive and take advantage of the other person whether man or woman but they remain human beings who we can recognise. How does the author or screen writer know if a certain type of villain fits well into the script or book they propose in their genre or story? To an author or screenwriter, each character-type serves a specific purpose in the exploration of a book or script’s premise, which usually starts with the protagonist. An antagonist’s primary purpose is to be the main obstacle to the protagonist (hero’s) quest or goal, which is motivated by a conflicting goal. That goal is something an antagonist is determined to secure for his or her own reason/s. The antagonist (villain) can in most cases be self-serving or the protection of a community he or she might have a ‘stake in’. The character’s reasons for doing what they do can often be the most emotionally compelling part of the story. This is because audiences can on occasions understand the antagonist’s motivation and can sometimes relate to it; these motives fall generally under two distinct classifications of ‘personal gain’ or ‘communal gain’.
