UBill Irwin kwi-Irish Rep's Imveliso eyiyo Kwi-Beckett: Kwisikrini .Ummeli waseIreland Kwiminyaka engamashumi amabini eyadlulayo, ndaphonononga uBill Irwin kwincwadi kaSamuel Beckett Iitekisi zeLutho kwiNkampani yeClassic Stage kwaye yagqitywa ngokumuncu: AmaClowns akakwazi ukwenza u-Beckett. Ndandimncinci kwaye ndicinga ukuba ndingenza uqinisekiso olukhulu malunga nombhali we Ukulinda uGodot . Ewe, ii-clown zefilimu ezithe cwaka zinefuthe elichazayo kwisitayile sika-Beckett, kunye nemidlalo yakhe (okanye izicatshulwa ezilungiselelwe iqonga) ziqulethe ishishini elihlekisayo kunye nehlazo elibi. Kodwa ngaba abahlekisi abaqeqeshiweyo (okanye abadanisi, kwimeko kaMikhail Baryshnikov, umzekelo) bamlingisile?
Into endicaphukisayo ngeloxesha malunga no-Irwin's Beckett yayikukubaleka kwayo kunye nokuchaneka kokuthetha ngomlomo. Iqokonqoko lomntu emsebenzini kaBeckett lihlala lisehla: liyanuka, libuhlungu, okanye liyala nje ukuhamba. Okanye, singoonodoli benyama, abajijwa yimikhosi engabonakaliyo, iintshukumisa ngequbuliso. Ngokufanayo, ulwimi lwakhe lunokutyhutyha kwi-cascades ye-erudite nonsense, okanye ukuphinda-phinda-phinda-iingcinga ezineengcinga malunga neengcinga.
Unokucinga ukuba konke oku kuyinyama ebomvu yomhlekisi. Kodwa andinakukwazi ukudlula ukomelela kuka-Irwin, amandla akhe ekinetic, ukulungela kwakhe ukusibonisa ukuba angawa njani umqolo wakhe okanye anyathele kuludaka olunodaka olunokuchaneographic choreographic. Zonke iingalo zengalo, konke ukungqubana komlomo okanye ukunyuka kwelizwi kwakulinganiswa kwaye kwasasazwa ngokuchanekileyo kweerobhothi. Kum, u-Irwin wayengumhlekisi njengesiqhulo. Ndifuna ukuba imizimba kunye namazwi ka-Beckett angabinabugcisa, angenanto yakwenza nobuhle-ngaphandle komnqweno wokuhamba-hamba nokuthetha. Itheyetha, emva kwayo yonke loo nto, yeyona nto ingummangaliso ngenxa yokuba kulapho umntu angenakwenza nto kwaphela eqongeni kwaye abe sedrama.
Konke oku kujonga kwakhona kukuhlebela nje: Ndixolele, uBill Irwin. Ndigcina ukubekeka kwam kwindawo yokuhlala malunga nokuba ii-clown zizitoliki ezifanelekileyo zika-Beckett. Kodwa kuyacaca ukuba unamathandabuzo, nawe. Ngaba ukubhala kukaSamuel Beckett kuyindalo? umlingisi ubuza kwangoko kukonwabisa kwakhe KwiBekkett / Kwisikrini . Lowo ngumbuzo esiza kuwulandela siwuqwalasele. Ukuqinisekiswa kwam kwintloko yehagu kuyachithwa kukuthobeka kwakho. Njengokuba bekulokhu kwenzeka kwesi sifundo sifudumeleyo, siyabandakanyeka, siyathuthuzela ngendlela engaqhelekanga kwi-Intanethi, sihamba simahla ngoNovemba 22.
Kwiminyaka emibini edlulileyo, u-Irwin wenza imemori-ish revue yakhe KwiBekkett eIrish Repertory Theatre (ebendiyiphosile) kwaye ngoku yena nomlawuli-kunye noMlawuli uFlorian Staab babuyele kwinqanaba le-Irish Rep ukurekhoda umboniso wabaphulaphuli ababodwa. Ujikelezwe ngamaqhekeza ambalwa kunye ne-zany couture (hayi enye kodwa zimbini zeebhulukhwe ezinengxowa), u-Irwin utsalela kumashumi eminyaka yokusebenza kwengqondo kunye nelore ukubuza ngokunyanisekileyo, Simele ukuyenza njani le midlalo inzima, singasathethi ke ukuyonwabela?
U-Irwin akanazo iimpendulo ezilula, uyavuma ukuba akangomphengululi, akathethi isiFrentshi, kwaye uza kuyo yonke into ngokwembono yomdlali. Uluhlu lwemizuzu engama-75 lufutshane kodwa lwanelisa ngokugqibeleleyo. U-Irwin ucengceleza icandelo lamacandelo ahlaselayo ukusuka Iitekisi zeLutho ; Ufunda i-eerie leyo yipaseji yokubonisa evela kuyo Ongaziwayo ; Ujika icandelo lomculo wengoma ukusuka Watt kwi-bravura vaudeville bit; kwaye uyasidlula Ukulinda u-Godot, kubandakanya u-Lucky's logorrheic spew-speech. Endleleni, u-Irwin ubonakalisa imeko yeqonga laseIreland kwaye ucacisa ukuthetha ngendlela yakhe yaseMelika, engazami ukonyusa iprozi ka-Beckett emfiliba.
Phakathi kwe-virtuosic kodwa i-understated performance, umamkeli wethu othandekayo we-TED uthetha ulwazi olusisiseko malunga no-Beckett. Abo banolwazi kakuhle kwi icon yanamhlanje banokufuna ukuhambisa phambili la macandelo: indlela ezaye zibhalwe ngayo imibhalo yakhe ephambili ngesiFrentshi emva koko bayiguqulela kwisiNgesi; indlela yokubiza Godot; kunye nendlela u-Beckett alwa ngayo kwi-Resistance ngexesha leMfazwe yesibini (II) yeHlabathi, mhlawumbi eyafaka umbala kumbono wakhe ngokulunga okungaphakathi ebantwini.
Ekugqibeleni, ndaye ndacinga ukuba u-Irwin-ixesha ekhethe inkwenkwe yakhe yekwayala ukuba ibukeke kwaye athambise iblues yakhe yosana-ufane nombhali obukekayo. Ezo memento mori cheekbones, eziwaka leeyadi zijongile; azicebisi ukwazana kufutshane nobuthathaka, ukuphela, kunye nokungabi nto? Ungatsho ukuba sonke sinyathela i-Beckett ngoku, silinde kwi-hermetic limbos ngengqondo encinci yexesha okanye isizathu. Ngaba u-Irwin ukhule waba ngu-Beckett, okanye ndinaye?
