ArtsPRunlimited, Inc Here is a look back at Beckett (1906-89). Happy Days—–Samuel Beckett’s most sardonic, grim play in a league with Endgame (that is ground zero for despair). Yet this photo evokes his happy days for sure even posthumously in Century 21. I saw the American Premiere of FOOTFALLS while working as a unpaid Script Consultant @ Manhattan Theatre Club. A simple yet profound story: Mother, daughter, time. Life, death and acceptance. FOOTFALLS always moved me. The daughter’s journey has worn away the floorboards. Plodding the Earth but still moving. Mother and daughter have begun her own journey toward eternity. Stunning.

On the occasion of the celebration of the 195th anniversary of the heroic departure of Messolonghi, the National Theater will present in a second live streaming the leading play of our national poet Dionysios Solomos, The Free Besieged. The direction is signed by Thanos Papakonstantinou, who with his special artistic look creates a stage atmosphere of death and resurrection ritual.
The new live broadcast of the show is dedicated to a day of high symbolism and will take place on the anniversary of the historic event, as the Exodus was set for the period between the night of Lazarus Saturday and the dawn of Palm Sunday, 10th and 11th. April 1826.
The poet, starting from the heroic struggle of the Messolonghi during the second siege of Messolonghi (1825-1826) until the culmination of the heroic exit, refers to the struggle of man for his external and internal freedom. The work, the famous “poem of debt”, was never completed and reached us in handwritten excerpts, which compose three Designs.

Afghanistan as a Joffrey Ballet connection and maybe a road to reconciliation and peace in 2021. Daniel P Quinn Afghanistan as a Joffrey Ballet connection. Memo to Afghanistan as a Ballet footnote from the United States to Kabul. Has the Joffrey Ballet ever appeared there ?As a salute to Afghan-Americans, it MUST be remembered that Robert Joffrey (Founder of the Joffrey Ballet) was one. Joffrey’s Father emigrated from Afghanistan to the USA. The Joffrey now in Chicago endures with his legacy even in Century 21.Robert Joffrey (1930-88) was an American dancer, teacher, producer, choreographer, and co-founder of the Joffrey Ballet, known for his highly imaginative modern ballets. He was born Anver Bey Abdullah Jaffa Khan in Seattle, Washington to a Pashtun father from Afghanistan and a mother from Italy.

Are you serious ? With Djt as business ringmaster, Neuman fits the commedia role as well. Making themselves rich at the expense of hundreds of their investors and forlorn former employee’s. Money attracts money. Brains don’t apply it seems in 2020. Only clothes, haircuts and chutzpah matter !!!

An apt comparison is The Great Depression, not Viet Nam. THAT is where we are heading in 2020/21.

Broadway in repeat mode: danielpquinn684 | Newark, NJ
Brain dead and money out of control. Box office grosses with inflated egregious prices. TDF discounts (beyond my budget). As a Award winning director, Broadway was once my goal. Now it seems like a gang of producers at every awards show… Hype and gripe sway… Eons ago Liza Minelli inflated $100- tickets for The Act (and The Times published my letter) in 1977 Pocket change now for some. Way too much for me.
On Jerry Herman’s DEAR WORLD: danielpquinn684, Newark, NJ, Feb. 22
The most poignant and powerful score was Dear World with Angela Lansbury and Milo O’Shea in 1970 on Broadway. The recording and the songs about madness and isolation from Giradoux’s play The Madwoman of Chaillot are still wounding and beautiful today. It should be seen and will be remembered.
George Bush got vooodo economics right. Trickle down like a water leak will corrode our infrastructure to the sorry state of today. As an artist I have received trickled down support. More than starvation but less to live on. The economy is growing with new fast food joints or dollar stores on every vacant store space in NJ. Not much else and luxury rental signs everywhere.
The art of Banski: danielpquinn684 Newark, NJ Feb. 9
Ban ski is taking it in. Other more important artists are not. He exudes a mania of mockery and fun in our dreadfull time. Enuf..but bravo Banski as he is still alive and enjoying his show. Many other artists only earned money after they were dead.
Kobe Bryant and JFK Jr.: Daniel P Quinn Newark, NJ, Jan. 27
This tragic death echoes that of JFK junior as well. A very sad story and great loss for all of us.

Teatro Real is seemingly the equivalent of the Brooklyn Academy of Music .
My first “job” was a lengthy 6 week stint at the Brookyln Academy of Music on HAPPY END for the Chelsea Theatre Center. HE was the failed successor to THREEPENNY OPERA and arrived via Yale Rep in Brooklyn. Shirley Knight was the star with Bob Gunton, Joe Grifassi and Tony Azito. It clocked in at about 3 hours with a plot based on the Salvation Army fighting Gangsters in Chicago in the 1920’s.
There were grumblings in rehearsals and fights about the text, the star and the…Read more · 3 min read
About 30 years ago I wrote Mr. Sondheim a letter obtrusely asking for his support early in my career. While at first he deferred, we began a correspondence and he became a donor and friend. In dark days and brighter years he urged me on and I am grateful. We wrote about other composers from Kurt Weill to Sylvano Bussotti.
A few years ago, I found myself at a bus stop across the street from Mr. Sondheim’s house. I knew his address from our correspondence but did not ring his bell. I knew him and he me over more than decades and query and response.

Malachy McCourt on “organized labor” by Daniel P Quinn.
“In these times of studied ignorance idiocy illiteracy and strutting ingnoramusses, it’s a relief to read Daniel P Quinn’s adroitly titled ‘organized labor’. Quinn is adept at the written word as he is at the spoken word with all his theatrical ventures. Reading this collection you can almost hear the gentle strains of an operatic aria in the Italian parts and musicality is not absent in the other parts.
A book… rich in content and well worth taking on a short or long trip. “
