Pam Gems
English playwright, b. Bransgrove, Hampshire,
1925
Pam Gems's principal theme is the position, treatment and
aspirations of women in a male-dominated world. She works within the suspect
genre of the bioplay. The RSC staged two of her plays, Queen Christina
and Piaf, within a year of each other at The Other Place. Piaf,
an unsentimental portrait of the great French singer, was a major success,
transferring to the West End and then to Broadway. Camille, from Dumas's
La dame aux Camelias, was only a little less successful, while The
Danton Affair, about men rather than damaged women, was a
departure. |
