Jimmy Porter barely ekes out a living running a candy stall by day and playing jazz trumpet by night. Although he usually takes his frustrations out on his emotionless wife, Jimmy's scathing tongue and self-loathing seem destined to destroy everything. Set in the UK at the dawn of the '60s social unrest, this savage morality tale spawned the phrase “angry young man".

Original music performed by Elliott Caine on the trumpet.

Includes an interview with Dan Rebellato, author of 1956 and All That: The Making of Modern British Drama.

Recorded in Los Angeles before a live audience at The James Bridges Theater, UCLA, in March of 2012.

Beschrijving van Audible

Spitting out insults and barbs and using words that cut like knives, British actor Simon Templeman takes to the theater and consumes the pivotal role of Jimmy Porter in this live production of John Osborne's 1956 critically acclaimed and groundbreaking examination of the emotional isolation of post-WWII England. As Jimmy's wife, Alison, Moira Quirk's level, nuanced upper-class intonation and accent are the perfect foil. Every time she sounds understanding or affected by her husband, it drives him to newer, more vicious tirades against all those around him. Don't be surprised about how this performance sticks with you. Uncompromising and startling theater at its best.

If you don't know or have forgotten the message that playwrights like Osborne, Pinter, Shaffer et al. wanted to give in the 1950s, you do not necessarily find out by listening to this play. The interview at the end enlightens on this, but it does not improve the play, which is slightly compensated by the great performance of the actors.

Interesting play - Listen to the interview first
