Tom Stoppard Lecture

Award-winning playwright Tom Stoppard delivers a lecture on theatre. He explores the differences between attitudes in German and English theatre and playwrights, discusses Oscar Wilde's work, and talks about the satisfaction that is gained through collaboration.

A very important lecture on the English and German theatre ! I think it's the time the Nobel Committee awards another playwright after Harold Pinter !

This man is the leading artist of his medium in our time. Basically a living Becket, Genet or Turgenev. Shakespeare of today IMO.

BRILLIANT!

Engaging talk. Brilliant mind he has got.

The essence of human striving as well as acceptance in the same breath. He has to be followed to be believed. To be delivered from questioning in the acceptance of belief all in a brief lecture at a university founded on the years of questing. Reaching back centuries in a second. Thank you Tom Stoppard whose existence will one day be a memory, like the mouse. Like Everest.

Sam Shepard perhaps makes the American case.

He should stick to writing. :/
