Write-Up Appertaining To Books Amadeus


I watched the film couple of years ago for uni and since then always longed to see the play on stage. And finally I had the fortune of seeing it at the National Theatre in London on Feb 1, 2017! <3Obviously I wanted to read the play beforehand and what else to say than that it's as brilliant as the film?!!! Even without music it's really powerful and simply fantastic.

I don't often read plays since I figure they're meant to be performed, and I more or less knew how this one would end, but Amadeus was still a riveting drama. For a play, it contains a lot of exposition. Salieri, the composer who is now remembered as Mozart's rival, is both the narrator, delivering monologues that relate past events, and a character in the events that unfold. Given the amount of historical context to be conveyed, this may have been unavoidable. But it works, and the audience

I saw a production of the brilliant play Amadeus in London's West End, where it moved to in 1981, after its initial stunning and masterly debut at the National Theatre in 1979. The production was the same, with Peter Hall directing, starring Frank Finlay as the tortured Salieri, and Richard O'Callaghan as the manic and crassly inappropriately behaved Mozart. It also starred Morag Hood as Constanze Weber. The film a couple of years later became a well-deserved favourite, but this was a

A brilliant dramatic, whirlwind-like treatment of genius and the desire for glory, _Amadeus_ is a fictionalized portrayal of the rivalry between the prodigy that was Mozart and the merely talented and inexorably envious composer, Salieri. The play starts with Salieri making a bargain with God (always a bad idea): 'make me the most amazing composer who has ever lived and I will sacrifice my life to you - not commit adultery (but just fantasize about it), deprive myself of pleasures, and glorify

We are working on the production of this play at the moment and I really enjoy it. The material is fun, same at is profound. Do not expect historical accuracy, since the story is told out of Salieris mind and memories. Unreliable, jealous and maybe the murderer of Mozart?
