Ce que dit l'éditeurLovecraft, my love A fantastic theatrical biopic, written for the centenary (1921-2021) of the meeting of H. P. Lovecraft and Sonia Greene, his only wife. The play begins in 1947, when Sonia learns of the passing of her husband H. P. Lovecraft, ten years after his death. This news upsets her and causes memories to flood bach. But then a strange feeling grows - Is Howard here ? From recollections to confidences, these two people reconstruct the course of their thwarted love, so extraordinary and overwhelming. Will Sonia understand Howard at last ? Is love stronger than death ? The french version of the play appeared in 2018, and was acclaimed by S. T. Joshi who found it « delightful ». The play, created in 2021, at Clermont Opera goes on in theaters and has been adapted for the cinema by its author. The play starred Christophe Pardon, Martine Chifflot, Beatrice Berne, Pierre Courthiade. The music was composed by Beatrice Berne. |
