Энда Уолш (род. 1967) - ирландский драматург.
Биография
[ редактировать ]Энда Уолш родилась в Килбарраке , Северный Дублин, 7 февраля 1967 года. Его отец управлял мебельным магазином, а его мать была актрисой. Он второй младший из шести детей. Уолш заявляет, что он видел своего отца, продавца, как «ведущего актера» в бизнесе, но, поскольку экономика Ирландии колебалась, также продажи мебели. Примечательно, что во время рецессии в 1980 -х годах, когда прибыль была низкой, Уолш говорит, что зарабатывал больше денег, управляя своим собственным газетным раундом, чем его отец приносил домой из магазина. [ 1 ] Жизнь в большой семье была полна инцидента, и Энда утверждала [ 1 ] Это многие из его пьес находят свое происхождение в его отношениях с отцом, его матерью и ее друзьями, его тремя братьями и двумя сестрами.
Enda attended Greendale Community School where he was taught by both Roddy Doyle and Paul Mercier. After studying Communications at Rathmines College and acting for the Dublin Youth Theatre,[2] Walsh travelled in Europe working as a film editor. On his return to Dublin he found few opportunities and so moved to Cork where he acted for theatre-in-education Graffiti Theatre. In 1993 Walsh began working with Pat Kiernan, director of Corcadorca, a collaborative ensemble which devised what Walsh calls 'terrible'[3] plays. In 1996 his Disco Pigs premiered at the Triskel Art Centre in Cork. This was the start of an international career writing for the stage and screen. Feeling himself to be 'too comfortable'[4] В Дублине, в 2005 году Уолш и его жена Джо Эллисон , которая в настоящее время является редактором Financial Times , как его провести , переехали в Лондон. Они живут в Килберне со своей дочерью Адой и их Кокапу Элвином.
Working life
[edit]Starting with his experience at Corcadorca, Walsh has never restricted himself to straight plays but has been happy to cross genres. Originally he would write music for one member of the ensemble and opportunities for dance for others. In the list of Walsh's works, there are musicals, an opera, art installations, and radio plays, such as Four Big Days in the Life of Dessie Banks for RTÉ and The Monotonous Life of Little Miss P for the BBC.
Many of Walsh's plays including Disco Pigs,[5] Bedbound, Small Things, Chatroom, New Electric Ballroom,[6] The Walworth Farce, Penelope and Misterman, have been translated into more than 20 languages and have had productions throughout Europe and in Australia, New Zealand and the US.

His play Ballyturk[7] premiered in 2014, produced by Landmark Productions and Galway International Arts Festival starring Cillian Murphy, Stephen Rea and Mikel Murfi, and played in Dublin, Cork and London in the same year. In 2017, the production was revived at the Abbey Theatre[8] and in early 2018 played at St. Ann's Warehouse in Brooklyn, NY. In this revival Tadhg Murphy played 1, Mikel Murfi returned as 2 and Olwen Fouere played 3.[9] Three members of the Gleeson family (Brendan, Domhnall and Brian) played the lead roles in The Walworth Farce produced by Landmark Productions at the Olympia Theatre, Dublin, in their first theatrical production together.[10] He adapted Roald Dahl's book The Twits for the theatre with its first production in April–May 2015.[11] An opera entitled The Last Hotel,[12] with music by Donnacha Dennehy, a co-production between Landmark Productions and Wide Open Opera, premiered in the Edinburgh International Festival in August 2015, played in the Dublin Theatre Festival in September 2015 and started an international tour beginning in Royal Opera House, London, in October 2015. He wrote a musical play with David Bowie entitled Lazarus,[13] which premiered at the New York Theatre Workshop (Off-Broadway) from mid-November 2015 to mid-January 2016. The UK production opened at the Kings Cross Theatre in London on 25 October 2016, ending 22 January 2017.[14]
The Galway International Arts Festival has played host to a new departure for Walsh, involving art installation rooms with audio monologues, including Room 303 featuring the voice of Niall Buggy (2014), A Girl's Bedroom featuring the voice of Charlie Murphy (2015), Kitchen featuring the voice of Eileen Walsh (2016) and Bathroom featuring the voice of Paul Reid (2017). These installations have also been shown in the Kennedy Arts Centre, Washington (May 2016) and the Irish Arts Center, New York (May 2017).
Walsh wrote the book of the musical Sing Street adapted from the film of the same name written by John Carney. Like Once, the musical was produced at New York Theatre Workshop, with performances beginning in December 2019. The musical was slated for a spring 2020 Broadway premiere before being postponed by the COVID-19 pandemic.
Walsh writes screenplays too, starting with his short film Not a Bad Christmas (1999). He adapted his play Disco Pigs, for the screen and co-wrote the screenplay of Hunger which was directed by Steve McQueen and starred Michael Fassbender as Bobby Sands, the IRA hunger striker who starved himself to death. He also adapted his play Chatroom for a film directed by Hideo Nakata. He is currently under commission for three films, an adaptation of the children's story Island of the Aunts by Eva Ibbotson (for Cuba Pictures), a film entitled Jules in the City based on the life and music of Rufus Wainwright and an adaptation of Gitta Sereny's book Into That Darkness, about the life of Franz Stangl, the commandant of the Sobibor and Treblinka extermination camps.
Themes
[edit]Walsh states that his plays are about 'some sort of love and need for calm and peace'.[15] He says that his play Penelope is about 'longing, love, lost love".[16] He says that 'all the plays are effectively about theatre, about writing'.[1] Also that 'all the plays are about routines'.[1] Walsh has often suggested that what interests him is 'about me actually getting through the day, you know'.[1] He speaks of his experience, in London, of extreme OCD. He sees his characters as needing 'to proclaim and proclaim and proclaim ... and to what? You know, to what, construct rules and sort of mechanisms within their living room but to what end? Only to try to escape them again and probably build more and more routines and patterns and all that sort of thing'.[1] Walsh also states 'what motivates me in theatre has always been to get close to characters who're on the edge of madness, or have entered it. It invigorates me to think that we're all the same….'[17] Another statement Walsh made was 'I don't like seeing everyday life on stage: it's boring. I like my plays to exist in an abstract, expressionistic world: the audience has to learn its rules and then connect with these characters who are, on the surface dreadful monsters'.[2]
