Rock 'n' Roll by Tom Stoppard

Directed by Alison Hindell

http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio3/dramaon3/pip/r3a1d/

first broadcast - BBC Radio 3, Drama on 3, Sunday 8 July
2007

Stoppard's play about loyalty, compromise, love and a time when music helped to change the world. Its
radio debut has been specially adapted by Stoppard with a new final scene. 

It's 1968, and Jan, a Cambridge
student, returns home to Prague to protect rock 'n' roll from the Soviet tanks crushing the Prague Spring. Max, Jan's
Marxist don in Cambridge, watches his ideology collapse over the decades, until the Velvet Revolution of 1990, when the
Rolling Stones play an historic concert in Prague, and student and master finally meet once more. The politics and music
have changed: have the people?

The writer in the play, Ferdinand, is a tribute to Vaclav Havel. (In three of
Havel's plays the central character, who represents Havel himself, is Ferdinand Vanek.)

The original stage
production, directed by Trevor Nunn, premiered at the Royal Court Theatre, London, running from 3 June 2006 until 15
July 2006. It then transferred to the Duke of York's Theatre. It featured Rufus Sewell as Jan and Sinead Cusack as Esme.
Vaclav Havel was in attendance at the opening, as was Mick Jagger.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rock_'n'_Roll_(play)

"The play is concerned with the significance of
rock and roll in the emergence of the socialist movement in Eastern Bloc Czechoslovakia between the Prague Spring of
1968 and the Velvet Revolution of 1989. Taking place in Cambridge, England and in Prague, the play contrasts the
attitudes of a young Czech PhD student and rock music fan who becomes appalled by the repressive regime in his home
country with those of his British Marxist professor who unrepentantly continues to believe in the Soviet ideal.

The play takes place over several decades from the late 1960s until 1990, ending with a concert given by The Rolling
Stones that year in Prague. Recurrent references are made to a glimpse by one of the main characters of the young Syd
Barrett performing Golden Hair. Barrett's physical and mental decline also plays a role in the drama (Barrett in fact
died during the play's run). The underground Czech group The Plastic People of the Universe are held up by another
character as an ideal of resistance to Communism. The poetry of Sappho is another recurrent motif; its pagan sensualism
is implicitly compared with the anarchic erotic force of Rock music.

One of the characters, a Czech writer,
is named Ferdinand as an homage to Václav Havel. Havel wrote three plays with a protagonist named Ferdinand Vanek, a
stand-in for Havel himself. These plays were distributed by samizdat and became a symbol of the resistance. A number of
Havel's friends then wrote their own Vanek plays with Ferdinand Vanek as a character. Stoppard continues in that
tradition.

This play is one of several works in Stoppard's oeuvre concerned with artistic dissent against the
Communist Party of Czechoslovakia: Dogg's Hamlet, Cahoot's Macbeth also concerns this, as does Every Good Boy Deserves
Favour and Professional Foul."
