The One With A Man For All Seasons
A MAN FOR ALL SEASONS
Presented by The Actors Studio. Directed by Joe Hasham.
The Actors Studio is 15 years old this April 2004.To celebrate Joe and Faridah have selected Robert Bolt's classic - A MAN FOR ALL SEASONS to be performed at The Actors Studio @ Bangsar Shopping Centre from April 10 - 25, directed by Joe Hasham, produced by Faridah Merican, with lighting design by Mervyn Peters.
A MAN FOR ALL SEASONS was first produced by The Actors Studio in 1991,at the Old Town Hall, with Leslie Dawson as Sir Thomas More and Mano Maniam as the King. Patrick Teoh played Cardinal Wolsey (a maiden outing for Patrick as an actor), Eric Roslee as the Common Man, Kee Thuan Chye as Cromwell, Gail Lyons as Alice More, Tiara Jaquelina as Meg, the daughter and Ramli Hassan as Signor Chapuys. Faridah & Joe often remember that this was the first TAS production that broke even!
A MAN FOR ALL SEASONS‚ shows a man sacrificing high office, his position in society, and ultimately his life, for religious principle. Dramatising the conflict between Henry VIII and More, the play depicts the confrontation between church and state, theology and politics, absolute power and individual freedom. Throughout the play Sir Thomas More’s eloquence and endurance, his purity, saintliness and tenacity in the face of ever growing threats to his beliefs and family, earn him the status as one of modern drama’s greatest tragic heroes. A MAN FOR ALL SEASONS starring Ari Ratos as Sir Thomas More, Zahim Al Bakri as Cromwell, Susan Lankester as Alice More, Kurt Crocker as Norfolk, Kubhaer Jethwani as the Common Man, Fahmi Fadzli as Richard Rich, Ben Tan as Wolsey, Reza Zainal Abidin as Signor Chapuys, Jit Murad as The King, Sharifah Aleya Al-Yahya as Margaret More, Kennedy John Michael as Cranmer Keith Chin as Chapuys’s attendant and Bregitta Wong as The Woman.
