Holderness is an associate professor in the Department of Theatre, 51ÁÔÆæ Peck School of the Arts.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLes Liaisons Dangereuses\u201d will be presented on 51ÁÔÆæ\u2019s Mainstage Theatre, 2400 E. 51ÁÔÆæ., Nov. 20-24. This award-winning drama by Christopher Hampton, (based on de Laclos\u2019 1782 novel), is an exploration of the aristocratic excesses of pre-revolutionary France.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/uwm.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/41\/2013\/11\/dangerous_liaisons_j2-2llqm70.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-9687\" title=\"dangerous_liaisons_j2\" src=\"https:\/\/uwm.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/41\/2013\/11\/dangerous_liaisons_j2-2llqm70.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"239\" \/><\/a>It follows the impact of a cruel wager between the beautiful, debauched Marquise de Merteuil and her former lover, Vicomte de Valmont. Here, in a labyrinth of intrigue and deception, fate ultimately hangs on the edge of a sword. (The play contains some adult content.)<\/p>\n<p>While the story also has been covered in several movies, Holderness says that it\u2019s important to remember that there is an actual period novel behind it. \u201cThat lends a special authenticity to the production.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>That belief that it\u2019s \u201cgood to draw people back to the original source\u201d influenced some key aspects of the 51ÁÔÆæ production.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are basing the visual style of the production on the research done by the technical team and our students into18<sup>th<\/sup> century architecture, set design, costumes and music,\u201d says Holderness. \u201cLes Liaisons Dangereuses\u201d presents an opportunity to explore the Enlightenment period in France, just before the Revolution.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In fact, the production\u2019s first rehearsal was spent in the Special Collections area of the Golda Meir Library, aided by Rebecca Littman and Max Yela, 51ÁÔÆæ Libraries. The cast examined 18<sup>th<\/sup> century documents and listened to opera and looked at art from the period<\/p>\n<p>The actors are wearing authentic 18<sup>th<\/sup> century costumes \u201cfrom the skin out,\u201d while the scene lighting and construction also reflects that, for example, used at Versailles.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn the 18th century, much of the lighting on stages was flame based \u2013 either candles or oil lamps,\u201d says Sarah Hamilton, production manager in the 51ÁÔÆæ Department of Dance. She holds an MFA in Theatre (Lighting Design) from Illinois State University, and is the lighting designer for \u201cLes Liaisons Dangereuses.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTheatres often would light their stages from above with large chandeliers, and that visual element has filtered through to our production. The warmth and softness of those flame sources is also going to be a major component in the realized lighting design.\u201d Hamilton says her goal is to have the lighting create the overall \u201csense of awe and splendor\u201d an 18<sup>th<\/sup> century audience would have felt \u2013 but in a 21<sup>st<\/sup> century audience.<\/p>\n<p>Holderness describes the costuming as \u201can entry point\u201d to the play\u2019s characters. \u201cYou only understand what\u2019s provocative or sensual about a period if you literally get inside it.\u201d The costumes are being designed by Jason Orlenko. A 51ÁÔÆæ alum (08 BA Theatre Studies), he recently completed an MFA in Costume Design at Indiana University.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAll of our characters are wealthy aristocrats or upstairs servants, so this is pretty easy information to find,\u201d says Orlenko. \u201cIt becomes tougher if your production has peasants or lower class characters as they were not the people immortalized in portraits and fashion plates.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>After the B.F.A. Costume Production students got their costume-build assignments, they went about researching their specific garment, how it would be constructed historically and what would need to be altered to serve theatrical purposes. This meant looking at photographs from museum collections of historical garments, studying patterns lifted from historical garments and referencing paintings and fashion plates of the time.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is a sexy and scandalous play, so it made sense to see our characters in various states of undress as they are caught amidst their naughty shenanigans and liaisons,\u201d says Orlenko. \u201cAlso, the corsets and understructures of the time are fascinating themselves, and audiences rarely get to see them in stage and film productions.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>But all of this authenticity is extremely time consuming. \u201cAs we&#8217;ve been going through fittings, it takes upwards of fifteen minutes just to get the actresses in all of the underwear to start fitting the dresses. All of the women wear stockings, a chemise, corset, some are in panniers [the hoops that sit on the hips to widen out the skirt], one or more petticoats \u2013 and that&#8217;s before you even get to the gown. Also, incorporating onstage dressing provides some challenges to our performers playing servants, as they are the ones who have to deal with getting everything on the actors properly.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>This production will be \u201cluscious in the best sense of the word,\u201d says Holderness. \u201cPeople should come and see it because this play will be pleasurable in the same way that a really good novel is.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This award-winning drama by Christopher Hampton is an exploration of the aristocratic excesses of
