Over the action hangs the threat of violence, of death, which lends the play a potent urgency for at least one of the characters, time is quickly running out. His manipulation of language-van Gogh's eloquent monologues giving way to more abstract speeches-evokes the painter's descent into madness. The scenes Walcott sketches summon several of van Gogh's most famous paintings: Sunflowers, The Night Café, The Bedroom at Arles.
In Derek Walcott's new historical play, O Starry Starry Night, two world-renowned artists come to life as they wrestle both with grand themes-friendship, loyalty, fame-and with more mundane concerns, money primary among them. In the meantime, the friends discuss their craft they frequent a local café that van Gogh will soon immortalize they become acquainted with a young prostitute, Lotte, who becomes Gauguin's lover they argue they paint. In two years, van Gogh will be dead by his own hand. Soon, Gauguin, frustrated by van Gogh's refusal to acknowledge his increasingly troubled mind, will depart for Paris. Two painters-Paul Gauguin and Vincent van Gogh-are living together in the sleepy town of Arles in 1888. Two masterful artists-Gauguin and van Gogh-come alive in a vibrant drama about friendship, art, and madness Lewis George Orwell Mary Pope Osborne LeUyen Pham Dav Pilkey Roger Priddy Rick Riordan J.
