JARMAN (all this maddening beauty) by Caridad Svich. This text for live performance by OBIE winning playwright Caridad Svich is inspired by the life and works of British filmmaker Derek Jarman (1942-1994). An homage and reflection on the legacy of queer art, this piece tells the story of a beautiful boy and queer angel in the now looking back at then. A dazzling poetic rendering, JARMAN explores the limits of the possible for both stage and film. First produced by force/collision ensemble in Washington D.C., the piece toured limited venues in the US and UK in 2014 and 2015. Published in a collection by the author from Intellect Books in the UK in 2016, this is a new single edition of the performance text from Santa Catalina Editions and NoPassport.
