synopsis:
|
Comedi angeuol yw Largo Desolato am athronydd o dan bwysau, nid
yn unig gan gynrychiolwyr y wladwriaeth i ddiarddel ei waith,
ond hefyd gan gyfeillion a chefnogwyr sy'n ei annog i sefyll yn
gadarn. Mae Havel yn adrodd stori am frwydr ysbrydol; am chwilio
heb ddarganfod; am unigrwydd a'r frwydr i oresgyn unigrwydd. Mae
iaith ac ardull yn themâu pwysig iddo; trwy iaith, sy'n
wead unigryw o'r lenyddol a'r cyffredin y cawn ddarganfod ei arddull
Largo Deslato is a 'lethal comedy' about a philosopher under
pressure, not only from agents of the state to repudiate his work,
but also from fairweather friends and supporters who urge him
to make a stand. Havel relates a story of spirtitual struggle;
of searching and not finding; of loneliness and the fight to defeat
loneliness. Language and style are important themes for Havel:
his language a particular weave of the literary and the banal,
with the style of the play encoded in the text.

"Owen Garmon is superb in the leading role, with memorable
performances by Marged Esli, Wyndham Price, Richard Lynch,
John Treganna and Grug Maria Davies.... Bethan Jones has become
a fine director , and whoever designed the set deserves praise.
It is a memorable performance"
