RIP Glenda Jackson (9.5.1936 - 15.6.2023)
"An actor can do Hamlet right through to Lear, men of every age and every step of spiritual development. Where's the equivalent for women? I don't fancy hanging around to play Nurse in Romeo and Juliet. Life's too short."
"If I'm too strong for some people, that's their problem."

Glenda could be fierce‚ was an avowed feminist‚ a tireless campaigner for human rights and for those living in#poverty. she spurned the celebrity status her two oscars earnt her‚ and approached acting always as a craft‚ to be respected and taken#seriously. her entry into politics was inspired by thatcher‚ only in that she found the Thatcher government's policies and actions to be#detestable and anathema to those concerned with the welfare of the needy and the under represented. she took her political work just as#seriously as she did acting‚ becoming a vocal critic of Blair and calling for his resignation over the Iraq war and the death of David Kelly#a solid socialist‚ an immensely talented actor and a genuinely good person. we see too few Glendas these days. rip#<3

The Mirror of Jean Genet
Yes, it’s true: Jean Genet (1910-1986) shared a birthday with Edith Piaf and Barbette! Now, that’s a three-way I’d watch through any peephole! Genet was a 20th century literary giant, so, naturally most Americans have never heard of him. Along with figures like Beckett and Ionesco, he was considered one of the principal Absurdist playwrights, as well as an exemplar of Artaud’s Theatre of…

You force your colours on me! You speak of widowhood! He isn't dead. Claire, Monsieur will be led from prison to prison, perhaps even to Devil's Island, where I, his mistress, mad with grief, shall follow him. I shall be in the convoy. I shall share his glory. You speak of widowhood and deny me the white gown - the mourning of queens.
Jean Genet, The Maids (tr. by Bernard Frechtman), 1947
