Imaginez un 'Shapespeare in Love' Gay avec des acteurs très convaincants, mignons, bons chanteurs, et une musique très très sympathique!


Encore une fois cela montre la capacité de l'oeuvre protéiforme de Shakespeare à inspirer des oeuvres modernes. Les paroles de shakespeare sur le rock moderne de la dernière chanson 'Pyramus and Thisby' fonctionnent parfaitement!

La mise en scène est inventive, l'usage des lumières et des costumes au maximum de ce qu'un petit film indépendant au budget limité peut accomplir. Certains tableaux sont des hommages à 'Pink Narcissus' ou Pierre et Gilles très réussis.

Le film date de 2008 mais ne sort qu'à présent en France. Il se joue actuellement au Nouveau Latina, courrez-y!

The course of true love never did run smooth...

Synopsis from IMDB:
After his eccentric teacher casts him as Puck in A Midsummer Night's Dream, Timothy stumbles upon a recipe hidden within the script to create the plays magical, purple love-pansy.

Armed with the pansy, Timothys fading spirit soars as he puckishly imposes a new reality by turning much of his narrow-minded town gay, beginning with the rugby-jock of his dreams. Ensnaring family, friends and enemies in this heart-wrenching chaos, Timothy forces them to live his kind of life for themselves. The course of true love never did run smooth, but by the end of the film (based on director Tom Gustafsons prolific short film Fairies) the bumpy ride comes to a conclusion.

Directed by Tom Gustafson

I see their knavery.
This is to make an ass of me.
To fright me, if they could.

But I will not stir from this place, do what they can.
I will work, up and down here.

And I will sing, that they shall hear.
That I am not, I am not afraid.
I am not afraid.

I know not by what power I'm made bold.
But still you flout my insufficiency.
The more my prayer, the lesser is my grace.

My ear should catch your voice, my eye your eye.
My tongue should catch your tongue's sweet melody.
My tongue, your tongue, were the world mine.

And I will sing, that they shall hear.
That I am not, I am not afraid.
I am not afraid!

Faeries away! Fetch me that flower...
Up and down, and up and down,
I will lead them up and down.

Faeries away! Swift as a shadow...
Up and down, and up and down,
I will lead them up and down!

Oh why rebuke, you him that loves you so?!
Lay breath so bitter, on your bitter foe.
On your bitter foe!

What angel wakes me from my flowery bed?
I pray thee gentle mortal, sing again.
I pray thee gentle mortal, sing again.

Mine ear is much enamour'd of thy note.
So is mine eye enthralled into thy shape,
I'll follow thee, I'll follow thee,
and make a Heaven of Hell...
I'll follow thee, I'll follow thee,
and make a Heaven of Hell...
And make a Heaven of Hell!

Faeries away! Fetch me that flower...
Up and down, and up and down,
I will lead them up and down.

Faeries away! Swift as a shadow...
Up and down, and up and down,
I will lead them up and down!

Faeries away! Fetch me that flower...
Up and down, and up and down,
I will lead them up and...

Faeries away! Swift as a shadow...
Up and down, and up and down,
I will lead them up and down!

My ear should catch your voice...
My eye should catch your eye...
My tongue, your tongue...
Were the world mine...

Très beau spectacle au théâtre la Bruyère, 5 rue la Bruyère 75009 Paris tous les dimanches et les lundis à 20:30

Marcel Proust
Lecture d'instants choisi

Avec en alternance:
Romane Bohringer
Xavier Gallais
Bernadette Laffont
Michaël Lonsdale
Nicolas Vaude

Un voyage dans la diversité et la richesse du texte de Marcel Proust, qui permet de découvrir toutes les tonalités de son style, la tendresse, la critique mondaine et surtout un immense humour.
Les extraits choisis montrent le comique souvent méconnu de Marcel Proust, à travers la voix du narrateur et des personnages hauts en couleur comme Madame Verdurin, Monsieur de Charlus, la Duchesse de Guermantes ou encore Françoise, la cuisinière de Combray.

Please put me to sleep
If there's room beneath your feet
See, I left my home
I could not get used to living alone

Put me to rest
Lay your head on my chest
Hold my hand
When you leave
Don't wake me up
Just to see how you say goodbye

Maybe I could be yours
Maybe you could be mine
God, I waited so long
Maybe my time has come
To walk by your side

Please put me at ease
Now my soul is ready for peace
Give me the lover's curse
Now I am ready for you
My rebel, my hope

Maybe I could be yours
Maybe you could be mine
God, I waited so long
Maybe my time has come
To walk by your side

Maybe I could be yours
Maybe you could be mine
Maybe I could be yours
God, I waited so long
To walk by your side
God, I waited so long
To walk by your side

Especially for my BKK buddy

For Loïc

Even though I have to let go your hand
Without any chance of seeing you tomorrow again
Nothing, no one will ever break this bond.

Even though you need to go afar
Burn bridges and hop on many planes
Love is stronger than despair.

Love that beats in both our hearts
Will transform pain into pleasure
Like lead changes into gold.

You still have so many beautiful things
To live and you will see that
There is truly someplace over the rainbow
Where blue lilacs are in bloom,
There is so much ahead of you.

Even though I watch over you from afar
Whatever you do
whatever happens to you
I will be by your side like in the old days.

Even though you drift away out of sight
Happiness and lightness will return
soonner that you would have ever thought.

In the space between earth and skies
Is hidden the greatest of all mysteries
Like a haze over dawn
So many beautiful things still hidden to you

Faith is stronger than any hurdle
Or again the spring of light in your soul,
Think about this when you lay your head:
Love is stronger than it all.
