Apology For The Life of an Actor

joan — Sun, 02 Aug 2009 19:13:27 -0400

August 15 & 16, 2009

Apology For The Life of an Actor, an original production written by and starring Dr. T. Paul Pfeiffer, is a comic representation of life in the theatre in the early 18th century. The show is based on the memoirs of Colley Cibber, comedian, theatre manager of the Drury Lane, and Poet Laureate. Known as the "Father of Sentimental Comedy," and his adaptations of Shakespeare "to make him fitter for the Stage," Cibber's sheer self-confidence drew biting criticism. Yet his sense of Theatre was keen and what he had to say about theatre and acting is as true today as it was in 1745.
