Autorenporträt

Nikolai Gogol (1809-1852) won fame as a short story writer, and in 1836, his satirical comedy The Government Inspector created such a furore that Gogol left Russia to settle in Rome, in self-imposed exile. Religious mania in his later years contributed to his early death in Moscow. Phil Porter is a multi-award-winning playwright and librettist. His work has been produced at Manchester Royal Exchange, Northampton Theatre Royal, The Unicorn Theatre and The Royal Opera House. His modern adaptations include Moliere's The Miser (West End, with Sean Foley), Middleton's A Mad World, My Masters (RSC, with Sean Foley), Shakespeare's The Tempest (RSC/Little Angel) and Janos Hay's The Stonewatcher (National Theatre).
