Tales from Hollywood

Sign in or become a Readings Member to add this title to your wishlist.

With the Austro-Hungarian dramatist OEdoen von Horvath as our guide, Christopher Hampton’s witty and erudite play takes us on a tour of the sun-soaked boulevards of 1940s Los Angeles. Taking in such improbable residents as Thomas and Heinrich Mann, Bertolt Brecht and the Marx Brothers amongst others, it brilliantly serves to open up a neglected chapter of American cultural history, as the wry and embittered European emigres find themselves amidst the materialistic razzle-dazzle of Hollywood.

Tales from Hollywood premiered at the Mark Taper Forum Theatre, Los Angeles, 1982 and at the National Theatre, London, in 1983.
