by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
A new translation by Alan and Sandy Brownjohn
with Michael Pennington as Tasso, David Buck as Prince Alfonso, David Suchet as Antonio, Eileen Atkins as the Princess, Rosalind Shanks as Leonora
"Here other men must suffer grief in silence,
A god gave me the power to speak my pain.
The poet Tasso lives in the palace of the enlightened Duke Alfonso in 16th-century Ferrara. He has finished his masterpiece, 'Jerusalem Liberated' and is
symbolically crowned by his admiring patrons. Goethe presents a highly-cultured Court, dedicated to the pursuit or artistic excellence. The play is centrally concerned with the discrepancy between the artist and the rest of the world. Music by Michael STEER. Directed by JOHN THEOCHARIS
(David Suchet is an Associate Artist of the HSC)
