Omschrijving
JOURNEYS IN THE NIGHT: CREATING A NEW AMERICAN THEATRE WITH CIRCLE IN THE SQUARE
"A good story and a great cast... The fun of Journeys in the Night is found in the happy accidents, fantastic luck, and fairy godmothers that enabled the Circle to achieve early success with plays by Tennessee Williams and Eugene O'Neill, and then to endure and prosper." - The New York Times Book Review "A fascinating, deeply moving story. Circle in the Square remains an astonishing chapter in the history of American theatre." - Howard Kissel, American Theatre"
Theodore Mann has devoted most of his time and energy over the past six decades to Circle in the Square Theatre. He has produced and/or directed more than 250 plays at Circle, including 19 productions of O'Neill. In 1963, Paul Libin became co-producer with Mann, a partnership that continues to this day. Still actively overseeing Circle and its celebrated theatre school, he also finds time to direct plays - most recently The Irish Play and Chekhov's The Bear and The Proposal - as well as opera. He currently is working with Joziah Longo of The Circus Band on a musical adaptation of Aesop's Fables. He grew up in Brooklyn, and was admitted to the Bar in New York State. He was married to one of the leading sopranos of the 20th century, the late Patricia Brooks, and has two sons and five grandchildren. He resides in New York.
