c) 3 famous production
A Disappearing Number is a 2007 play co-written and devised by the Théâtre de Complicité company and directed and conceived by English playwright Simon McBurney. It was inspired by the collaboration during the 1910s between two of the most remarkable pure mathematicians of the twentieth century, Srinivasa Ramanujan, a poor Brahmin from South India, and the Cambridge University don G.H. Hardy.
It was a co-production between the UK-based theatre company Complicite and Theatre Royal, Plymouth, and Ruhrfestspiele, Wiener Festwochen, and the Holland Festival. A Disappearing Number premiered in Plymouth in March 2007, toured internationally, and played at The Barbican Centre in Autumn 2007 and 2008, and at Lincoln Center in July 2010. It was directed by Simon McBurney with music by Nitin Sawhney. The production is 110 minutes with no intermission.
The piece was co-devised and written by the cast and the company. The cast in order of appearance: Firdous Bamji, Saskia Reeves, David Annen, Paul Bhattacharjee, Shane Shambu, Divya Kasturi and Chetna Pandya.
Measure for Measure is a play by William Shakespeare, believed to have been written in 1603 or 1604. It was (and continues to be) classified as comedy, but its mood defies those expectations.[1] It has generally been called one of Shakespeare's problem plays. Originally published in the First Folio of 1623 (where it was first classified as a comedy), the play's first recorded performance occurred in 1604. The play deals with the issues of justice and mercy ("Mortality and mercy in Vienna" [Act 1, scene i]), and their relationship to virtue and sin: "Some rise by sin, and some by virtue fall" (Act II, scene i). Mercy and virtue predominate, since the play does not end tragically.
