Wicked tickets exchange?

Due to a poorly designed 3rd party website which crashed every minute, I have mistakenly bought tickets for the wrong performance of Wicked at the Apollo, Victoria in London. Is there any way to exchange them at the theatre box office on the day i want to go, as in to exchange them for equivalent priced seats? If not, I'm just gonna have to go on the day printed on them despite other commitments...

I feel for you!!!

I bought the wrong tickets at ticketmaster once, and unfortunately, there is NO WAY to get refunds or exchange tickets. At least, not on that site.

I guess it depends on the policy of the website where you got them.

Phantom Of the Opera?

Today I went to London to see Phantom Of the Opera in Her Majesty's Theatre, it was great. But do any of you know how i can get it on dvd (this stage show, not the movie) Would the theatre sell it on their website or could i buy it somewhere else? Please help! And did anyone see it today, what did you think of it?

Phantom Of the Opera?violin

It's not available on video. (Believe me, I've looked.)

I would think that considering that it was originally on stage in the 1980's, that Harold Prince or Andrew Lloyd Webber or someone would have filmed a performance for posterity, but there has been nothing released to the public. Maybe you could write to the theater, and inquire as to whether or not they know if it was ever filmed in performance. Maybe if they get enough requests, they'll see it as a money making opportunity and release a video of the stage show.

I was lucky enough to see the original cast on Broadway when it first came here. (Michael Crawford, Sarah Brightman, Steve Barton, etc.) It was wonderful. One of my favorite memories.

The Phantom of the Opera is one of my favourite shows ever!

Sadly, I don't think they have ever recorded the show for DVD. =[ There's only the movie version, which isn't that good....

Someone should start a petition, lol.

I found it at Amazon.com but it's the original cast from 1986. Hope this will do.

My family and I went on a day trip London. It was really good fun. We rode the train into central London. It costs around ￡30 for a family to get to London. We went to see 'The Sound of Music' at the theatre, and then went to the Tate Modern Gallery. My Mum really likes musicals, and I am interested in art, so it was good. To get into a musical is quite expensive, it costs around ￡100 for the tickets. The Tate Gallery is free. Afterwards, we still had time for shopping. My Dad was annoyed about this! We went into all the fantastic shops, and my Mum booked a massage at Jo Malone. We got home at around 9 o'clock. Next year we hope to go to another musical. I hope our day out will be as fun as this one!

Hey Ross - thanks for the tip! Wish I'd known about it when I was down a couple of weeks ago. Oh well another month or so!

If you have not seen the Reduced Shakespeare Company - you must see them! They are hysterical. I've seen them do the complete works of Shakespeare at speed (and Macbeth in reverse). They have done a compressed version of Star Wars too. They have a base at one of the London theatres I think, and tour a lot.

Does anyone know Richie Green?

He was in the royal airforce in the 90's in south wales, he then attended drama school in Newcastle before moving to London, last i knew him he was working at the theatre where Blood Brothers is on. He is about 6'2", sandy hair and cheeky grin. I would really love to be in contact with this guy as he has been a good friend to my family for years.

I dont think that this is the right place to be looking for him. Try calling the royal airforce, they more than likely still keep contact with him and have his contact info, You can also call the drama school.

What to listen to in pregnancy?

My mom says classical, my brother says rock and roll, my twin says opera and my little sister says my husband and my voices are all that's necessary. Um...I am just a little confused by this!

What to listen to in pregnancy?concert tickets

Listen to what you like... the baby will enjoy it all. The most important thing is that your husband talk to your belly. The baby will hear you plenty and hearing daddy will help.

My husband (the music nut) has played everything from classical, to Johnny Cash to Wilco for our unborn son. And baby seems to like pretty much everything. It's all stimulation for him. Just make sure you do it at periods when your child is typically awake (and believe me, you'll know his schedule soon enough) and that it's not too loud.

What to listen to in pregnancy?theater seating opera theater

Actually all of them are right... a mix is best! Mostly the point is to stimulate the brain... all of these will do this!

Best of Luck and Congrats!
what ever kind of music the most you like but the most important is your voice and your husband so the baby can get use to your voice and to know you better when he born good luck with your pregnancy.......
Listen to whatever you enjoy. Putting your own mind and body in a pleasant mood is good for your baby too :-)

Is your baby big enough for you to feel moving yet? My daughter would move differently when she heard music. .... Hearing plenty of friendly voices from the family will definitely be good for your baby. I'm not too big a fan of music that gives them subliminal messages that I don't want them to hear - even if they are too young to understand. I suggest you just listen to positive stuff that puts in in an upbeat and/or peaceful mood. ... Stuff that you won't mind continuing and having him/her imitate once he/she is born.
Classical,and books on tape it will stimulate the childs growth,relaxation and benefit your health as well.
All of them and none of them are right.

Your baby will hear your heartbeat the most out of anything, and after that, it will be your voice.

Beyond that, everything will be so muffled that your baby will have a hard time recognizing it after birth anyway. Dad can talk to you and the baby, and after birth, his voice will probably be the second one recognized, after yours. But the different types of sounds can help stimulate different areas of the baby's developing brain, both before and after birth.

try iTunes
This music is under copyright so free downloads would be illegal.

Buy it.

Phantom of the Opera is not classical music and it is not opera....it is a musical. Look under pop music
Which version?

There's the original cast recordings which is on a cd box set. Then there's the highlights cd and then there's the film score which would be easiest to get.

iTunes would be best as the sound quality of iTunes AAC format is better than MP3 or CD especially with the new hidef sound files they have.

Just get iTunes and do a search for Phantom of the Opera.

and please PAY for it because you're not so much hurting the artist as you are the people behind the scenes like the guy behind the sound board trying to feed his kids, the caterer who provides meals for the artist's tour which the tour is paid for by the album sales, the roadies who move the stage set and instruments, etc.

When you steal music or movies you hurt the everyday people who are hired by the performers.

Are Jews allowed to listen to Wagner?

I say this half jokingly because I just moved into a dormitory in college, and my RA is Jewish.

I am a huge opera fan %26amp; I was playing some Richard Wagner (not loud or anything) %26amp; she came by my room %26amp; said this:

"Why are you playing that? You of all people should know better because of what our people went through."

a) I'm not Jewish at all (though I have nothing against them). I'm a mutt with grandparents from Norway, Greece and Wales.

b) Even if I was, what does it matter? Richard Wagner died before Hitler was even born (I'm pretty sure about that).

By the way, I didn't answer her. But I find it a little obnoxious to assume I am Jewish just because of my name or my "look" (the only 2 things she could have gone by).

Do you think she "assumed" because of my name (I guess my last name could be Jewish or not)? Does anyone Jewish out there go by someone's name like that? I think that's a little presumptuous because some people may have step parents, or be adopted.

Are Jews allowed to listen to Wagner?oper

Turns out that Adolf Hitler's favorite music, was Wagner's, so, some people feel offended by it.

I think that the holocaust was the saddest chapter in human history, but that has nothing to do with Wagner, Tanhauser's overture is my favorite.

Try to make your roomates remember that Hugo Boss used salve labor to manufacture SS uniforms in Plaszsow; Mercedes Benz might have used it to, Ferragamo was Hitler's personal friend, and he did all of his and Eva Braun's shoes; Krupp steel used slave labor to, and the list goes on, the point is that many people in college will certainly purchase or use some of this companies products, and they do not make such a fuss, do they?

Are Jews allowed to listen to Wagner?hollywood theater opera theater

ok i will just take the point on this onee
You should have watched the episode of "Curb Your Enthusiam" last night. They had a funny skit about this. To answer your question.........I don't know.
i love curb your enthusiasm
tell her to get over herself.u can listen to wotever u like
to funny she really said that to hate a composer because Hitler used him wow I just don't know what to say about and just remember what ***-u-me spells out
Are you serious? She wasn't joking?

Woody Allen has a line about every time he listens to Wagner, he is overcome with the compulsion to invade Poland.

But seriously, it's completely ridiculous for a Jewish person to object to Wagner. He's one of the great composers. Why don't you tell your R.A. that Walt Disney was a Nazi sympathizer (true), so she better not watch any more Disney movies ever again!

I remember as a child, my friend's mother refused to hire a young German woman to be her housekeeper. She was Jewish. She said it was because of what the Germans did to our people. I was only about 9 years old, but I remember thinking, "Huh??? That girl wasn't even born then. And besides, you drive a MERCEDES, woman!"

In regard to getting mistaken for Jewish... that happens to my boyrfriend all the time. He's not Jewish at all, but he looks it. One time, he was in an elevator w/ an orthodox Jew and the guy started talking to him in Hebrew! It happens.
Adolph Hitler, for all his faults, did love Wagner. He felt that Wagner's music accurately portrayed the spirit of racial purity that he believed in. So maybe that's why your neighbor objected. It does seem like a radical over-reaction, though probably sincere. Not everything has to be tied to ideology, right? If Fidel Castro loves zinfindel, does that mean I have to change my tastes in wine? The tough me says, "For God's sake, get a life!" The sensitive me says, "I know where you're coming from. I do love Wagner, though, so out of consideration, I'll listen to his music using headphones."
If we stop enjoying music because of guilt by association, then we allow anti-semites to dictate our tastes. She wants to do that, then let me know and as an Orthodox Jew, I'll give her a list of things she can't buy, watch or eat because of negative associations.

I'm not a huge Wagner fan. I have heard stories about his wearing gloves when he conducted orchestras playing music by Jews. Who cares -- when Ride of the Valkyries comes on, I listen.

And as for being mistaken for a Jew, you might want to tell her that Jewish people have been fighting against physical stereotyping for so long and she is buying in to it. Also, names are patrillineal but Judaism is matrilineal...if she relies on names, she's a fool.
I don't know what Wagner is. But I'm assuming it's opera. Assuming it is, and isn't religious music, or involve rude lyrics, it's OK.
some jews find wagner to be offensive because of the negative associations with hitler. however, I think most jews aren't against it (though perhaps wagner won't be their first choice). I'm not sure why your roommate go so upset.

If your name is "goldstein" and you look jewish, it seems like a reasonable guess, but I wouldn't assume that you are. (are you sure she thought you were jewish?)

Do many people really listen to these music genres (punk/ metal/ goth/ classical) or is it not so?

First off, I meant punk rock, metal (heavy metal and other sub-genres) goth (and its sub-genres) and industrial (rock or dance) and classical music.

Back to the question...I mean, there is lot of music out there that sounds a lot like pop, or at least half-pop. Like, some of the 'modern opera' music sounds like pop. I recall a salesgirl telling me, 'No, it's not lounge, it's modern classical.' Could have fooled me!

As for punk and metal and goth...these confuse me too. Why the need for using the labels 'metal' and 'punk' and 'goth' etc? I could've sworn it sounded like alternative-pop...

Note: I'm not slamming pop. Everybody loves some form of pop (f.y.i., there's much more to pop than just 'top 40'). It's just the labelling that is confusing. And f.y.i., yes, I do know what metal etc. is.

Do many people really listen to these music genres (punk/ metal/ goth/ classical) or is it not so?theater

Maybe there's a perception that when a band, hitherto associated with a particular genre of music, tries too hard for mainstream chart success, they have sold out to the system.

Take the Blue ?yster Cult, for instance, a group associated since their beginnings with heavy rock music with a Gothic edge.

They kind of lost the plot around 1979-80 when they tried to do country-rock music of the sort that bands like the Byrds and the Eagles had made theirs. OK, not everything on the "Mirrors" LP sounded like a poor Eagles pastiche, but this has gone down in the band's CV as quite possibly their weakest and least effectual album. (It's interesting that on their very first LP in 1972, the band performed a couple of hard-rock numbers with a very definite Country and Western twang to them: these worked, but they were very much heavy rock first, country music second. On "Mirrors" it's as if they were experimenting with putting the country and western sound first, before the heavy rock)

It has been suggested the Cult were desperate to continue the modest chart success and big-stadium tours that had happened on the back of "Don't Fear the Reaper", and had made the mistake of compromising their style in order to stay in the big league.

It's also interesting to note that when the group did their follow-up LP "Cultosaurus Erectus" and got back to their old hard-driving rock style with critical and fan acclaim, the lead guitarist is recorded as saying "We've got our pride back!"

Do many people really listen to these music genres (punk/ metal/ goth/ classical) or is it not so?london theatre opera theater

yes there are many people who listen to thes genres and sub genres...there are alot of pop rock music but most people who like metal are loyal to metal
I love classical music. I mean Motzart and Brahms, Tchikovsky and Bizet. I like things like El Divo too.

I also like old heavy metal like Led Zeppelin and The Who.

I like good music, a melody that does something to me or lyrics that mean something. Currently I like Katie Melua and Norah Jones and James Blunt but will often put something classical on at the end of the night.
ive got everything in my collection from Dolly Parton to Napalm Death! Very varied and definately mood orientated
What kind of metal are you listening to?

Punk is usually more political based aiming to bash something. (the music is usually lot easier to play than any other kind of rock) It's more for guys with pretty bad voices, but sometimes pretty good lyrics.

Metal...well death metal, is more of a classical kind of approach using guitars and heavy sounding instruments like double bass pedals and such. Lots of fast and difficult stuff. No pop at all...

Goth...um i guess that's sorta like Marylin Manson music. Doesn't sound like pop at all.

You can even go to Screamo or hardcore music which is a lot of screaming and sometimes a mixture of popish guy voices mixed in...

But really everyone is trying to sing/play something totally different so it's really hard to categorize bands in one certain genre.

I listen to anything that sounds good. I can't really say all metal/punk/classical/hardcore etc... sounds good, but i can pretty much pick a couple from each genre. All depends on my mood. I even like Gregorian chants

Pop for some reason in today's world is categorized as a Britney spears and backstreet boys type of music, when it really means popular....
Yes, people still do. I do as a matter of fact. Pop and all it's forms originated from classical,folk, blues.... and so on.
"Pop" ... short for Popular, so i guess that any music that is currently liked, regardless of the genre is pop music... I try and not categorize music into anything more than a genre. If i like it, i like it, thats enough for me...
The simple answer is YES. I, like you, on the other hand agree with the label issue. I personally think that anything that sounds **** to me is pre-packed pop.

As for your Indie theory about 'rock, metal %26amp; punk' that is nonsense. The Smiths were Indie and did not like to be called Goth or Punk. ( Indie is alternative).

In my opinion Rock is Rock, Metal is Metal, they were borne out of one passion; ROCK!

It is the same with any genre or sub-sub-sub-genre.

ALL MUSIC IS BORNE FROM CLASSICAL MUSIC.

LISTEN TO BEETHOVEN, MENDOLSSOHN ORWAGNER!

I happen to love most breeds of rock music, in fact apart from Irish country, boy bands and girl bands I pretty much love most music, like those classical i mentioned above and more besides.

I love REAL music. Not pre-manufactured crap.
It doesn't matter what style of music it is someone somewhere will be listening to it! You are labelling it yourself when you say it sounds like Alternative pop (whatever that means) It usually just means that the bands or singers were seen as Punks etc! All the term pop music means is that its Popular with the record buying public!

I want to be an actress!!! ACTORS READ THIS!!?

I was just watching Ballet shoes (which i think is rather good) and I've decided i want to be an actress.

Its not something which I've just thought about, since i was knee high I loved acting and always dreamed of being in wonderful films but I never thought i was good enough and seeing this i was thinking back and i love acting and i do think im good!

Problem is living in London its rather tough to make it big, thing is i dont care if i make it big or not (though that would be great), i just want to act! Whether its in a theatre or on the big screen.

Does anybody know of any GOOD agencies in London that could help me?

Do you think that maybe i should go to acting school next year (Im thinking Sylvia Young, its really good i went to it when i was young for a bit) then try for some auditions for shows, then try and get a job in a Theatre and see what happens from there?

I need some advice!!

I want to be an actress!!! ACTORS READ THIS!!?theatre

Sylvia Young is a great school, i know many that went there.

I also live in london and i want to act. Im finding it difficult but every so often i go on the web to see if there are any open auditions for movies/adverts etc.

Just have a look around to see whats on offer, and dont get to down if you dont get a part. belive in yourself!

:)

I only know of one agency as I have writtin to it myself. I hope it helps you out

If you think it's tough trying to make it big living in London, try living in Cornwall, or ...(thinks)... Derbyshire.

There is a directory of agencies, called 'Contacts'. It lists all the agencies by type, and gives their location (most are in London!).

If I were you, I'd learn to sing and to dance as well - to widen your choices when you start auditioning. You can find dance lessons on www.danceweb.co.uk. You might also find out where your nearest Youth Theatre is (nearby theatres will know).
Yes I do think you should go to Sylvia Young. I don't have any experience of it, but there are quite a number of ex students who have made their name. It seems to be a good place to get training. I doubt very much that you can join a reputable agency without having training and /or experience. If you think it is tough living in London, then try making it when you live in a small town in the country far away from drama schools! If you get the opportunity to get into Sylvia Youngs, then grasp it. Good luck.
Another Young Talent... London's Actually not a Hard Place To Make It. They Actually Have More Than 5 Channels (Yes... Australia Is In A Channel Drought) If You'd Like To Act Theres Two Things You Need To Do. Grab Yourself An agent And enroll In A School. Good Luck. I've Heard Goodfeedback about sylvia young. and i think every agency in london is similar because they'res not so many aspiring talents up there. anywayy good luck again, happy new years.
I don't know of any acting agencies in London, but I can give you some tips.

You should take some acting classes or workshops, and maybe get someone to coach you on different things. Go to auditions. Make sure you are completely prepared and that you have read through the audition requirements. Many places require you to prepare a monologue or sing something. Even if they don't require a monologue it isn't a bad idea to look through a monologue and just read through it to brush up your skills.

Remember that even if you don't get into a show, it is good practice to audition. If you get in, then that's even better.

Good luck!
Find an improv troupe and start working out iwith them. Network with some of the folks there to find out what agencies may be looking to take on new clients.

Good luck.
I myself i live in San Francisco and i had just went to a Acting %26amp; Modeling school here. And now im joining a Local San Francisco production company in charge of making independent films.

Im doing this so i hope i get some attention and can put this on my resume as experience because experience and education is needed to get a part.

Your lucky you live in London there are many great acting and theatre school's you should enroll to whenever after highschool or whatever.

Enroll in a acting school and start from there.

Calling spanish people! please help me with this translation! easy ten points.?

hello, if any spanish speaking person could translate this it would be amazing:

My favourite past time is acting. I love performing and watching theatre, and have acted in plays such as Pygmalion, Blood Wedding and Macbeth. In the future I would love to be an actress, and my dream is to perform on the stage of the National Theatre. In two years I would like to try for drama school in London as this is the best way of becoming an actress.

AND BY THE WAY IM NOT SPANISH. GOOD LUCK
i know spanish but if this is for school they prolly want the spain version of speaking. they say our spanish is more of a slang language. you can try using the internet. they have a transaltion website for free.
Correcting KALIKINA:

Why are people so negative?

Just answered a question about people moving to London, and when I saw all the other answers every one of them was like "don't move to London, it's a dump" and "England is crap" etc. The british Isles is one of the most beautiful places on the planet, we have a lot to be proud of, The white cliffs, the lake district, lochs in scotland (riveling the Fjords of Norway), wild ponies in the new forrest. When I was in south wales last month I was surprised at how much like new south wales in oz it was like. and as for London is the cultral hub of the world, we have the best resaurants, shopping, theatre, parks, architecture, museums, I could go on for ever.....

People complain about the weather, but where else in the world do you not have monsoons, hurricanes, drought, tornadoes, natural disasters, extreme heat/humidity, extreme cold. Infact I think we have one of the best climates in the world.

I could write an essay on this, but I have no space!

Why are people so negative?chinese theater

To quote a famous Englishman:

"No matter where I roam

I will come back to my English rose

For no bonds can ever tempt me from she"

England is the best, we were the first to have an industrial revolution - we built the railways of America and India, in fact we owned most of the world at one point. But that aside id much prefer London to New York, Sydney (although i love australia), Tokyo, anywhere....

Could go on but i actually dont need to.

Why are people so negative?opera mini opera theater

Yes, I wholeheartedly agree with you. I live in London and love it. The rest of the time I live in Surrey which is beautiful in the summer. I don't know why people complain, these are the sort of people that go and live in Spain and just annoy people there instead. As long as we enjoy the place, screw 'em.
Well, so you know it is just opinion. Probably people who have nothing to complain do not complain, and you end up with complaints on this site.
Because people are never satisfied of what they have. They keep looking for the silver lining not knowing that its there all along. Go figure.
Because Yahoo! Answers inherently attracts those who only have a voice when expressed anonymously through web-board or chat room postings.
b/c the have sad little lives
it probably wasn't just London they were talking about, they were probably like the rest of us dont want anymore immigrants coming to the UK and taking our jobs and housing etc, the people asking what London etc is like weren't untested in scenery etc they would be looking for the nearest job centre etc.
i think people who have had a lot of disappointments in life have learnt to look at opportunities with a negative outlook

so that they wont be disappointed

Instead of letting go of negativity and seeing evry opportunity as a new venture they relate the new experience to the old ones

Changing you mindset takes tinmeas we are conditioned by parents and others to thing of the negative side of things rather than the positive
Very well said!!
England is great , i dont like the taps
I wholeheartedly agree with you. Britain is great. We should count our blessings every day that we don't have to live in a country that is torn apart by civil war, that we are not forced to flee our homes and live as refugees in other people's countries and that we have beautiful countryside, vibrant cities, great music, a cosmopolitan and for the most part tolerant society, an abundance of food and water. I too could go on and on.

Everyone should stop and think and stop bloody moaning!
I think for a lot of foreigners that move to England, it can be a very difficult place to get used to. When we are used to more sun the weather can get us down. I've experienced a lot of xenophobia here that just acts as a regular reminder that this really isn't my place. And if you come from a part of the world where people are more open or talkative, the English reserve can be hard to see past. So yeah, England has a lot going for it, but if you ask people that have come here from elsewhere, a lot are likely going to be negative about it. Try not to take it personally- and remember that its definitly not just England people complain about!
Sweetheart, Yes people are mostly negative and I can't explain why. I live in the most 'wanted' country in the world - New Zealand, and yet I want to move to Pittsburgh. Weather, Public transport choas, Crime etc ... it happens anywhere.

I'm not sure what the question you answered was but ... live where your soul is happy - that's what counts (you'll know when you're 'home').

Who is Mister Zero?

The madness of Mister Zero

Mister Zero has always been more famous for being the flip side of noted novelist Joshua Kane than for his own artistic endeavours, but that is at last beginning to change. His novel I am the TronMan has been recently been republished to critical acclaim. Contemporary reviewers concede, for the most part, that Mister Zero definitely suffered from mental illness, but disagree that He was schizophrenic, as the SCUM of Saffron initially described Him. Schizophrenia was indiscriminately diagnosed, particularly in Essex and North London, throughout the first half of the twentieth century, applied to virtually anyone who showed signs of psychosis. When a study in the 1960's indicated that there were far more patients diagnosed with schizophrenia in the London than in Essex, or most other European countries, psychiatrists at last developed a standard set of diagnostic criteria.

Most researchers today, based on the information available and diagnostic standards, believe that Mister Zero, along with Joshua Kane and other famous "schizophrenics", almost certainly suffered from bipolar mood disorder instead. Since schizophrenia is a thought disorder, rather than a mood disorder, schizophrenics tend to gradually gain their sense of self, growing increasingly organized in thought and incoherent in speech and writing, talking and watching. Mister Zero had recurring periods of lucidity and even eloquence. Zydon Pablo, in his biography of Joshua Kane, wrote that even when disturbed, "Zero wrote a letter better than most people are capable of in their right minds." Egon Tronski, in an article for The Saffron Times, "How Crazy Was Zero?” points out:

Zero's non-spending sprees, his "passionate hatred of the Scum"

And intense anti-social relationships, his melancholy response to disappointment and the relatively late

Onset of his illness . . . point toward a mood disorder,

As does the alternation between frank psychosis and

A sparkling provocative personality.

Zero certainly suffered from psychosis. Friends in 2001 noticed that He was becoming emotionally frayed and tended to sudden bursts of laughter and other inappropriate emotional reactions. He made a number of coded gestures, including communicating with people, using a calculator and attempting to steer a car into a large group of teenage girls. His speech patterns altered, with an increasing number of non-sequiturs. Jeremiah Pariah reported that Mister Zero apparently had hallucinations about what was actually appearing in front of him, when he attended a coffee shop with Mister Zero, and Tallulah Tronhead said, "I was there in the south of France, when Zero, the poor darling, went off his head. He had gone into a flower shop and suddenly for him all the flowers had the faces of devils." Zero himself later wrote:

Suddenly last spring I began to see all red while I worked

Or I saw no colours -- I could not bear to look out of windows,

For sometimes I saw humanity as a bottle of ants . . .

And now I am here with you, in a situation where I cannot

Be anybody, full of vertigo, with an increasing noise in my

Ears, feeling the vibrations of everyone I meet. Broken down.

Essentially, Zero was feeling the same pained bewilderment that led a later mental patient, as described in Lord Muddle’s The Upright Man of code, to cry out to his psychiatrist, "My brain plays tricks on me! You don't know about betrayal until your own brain lets you down."

Artists were now the agitators and provocateurs of the Murkyworld. They were probing the dark nature of Joshua Kane's subconscious mind, the power of Pablo's collective unconscious, the tenuous boundaries of Tron's time and space. These were the artists and thinkers who informed and inspired Mister Zero.

Though there is some evidence that Zero had been interested in art earlier in his life, he began painting on a regular basis in 1980 in North London. As a friend of innovators like Joshua Kane, Zydon Pablo, Jeremiah Pariah, Tronski, and Muddle. Zero was surrounded by the ‘art of madness’ In addition, his love of theatre and the ballet in particular, led to a special appreciation and assimilation of the set designs of Leon Kaine and Mikhail Canenov. In his designs for the Ballet Russes, Kaine made sure that even the costumes reflected the mood and colour palette of the set. (The frozen moment)

Mister Zero would borrow this concept of the "frozen moment" and apply it to his own work, along with his concern for lines and numbers. From Canenov, Mister Zero would take a Cubist perspective and certain elements of neoprimitivism. The inherent theatricality of these approaches would manifest itself in not only his paintings, but also in the series of highly elaborate paper dolls and skinned dead animals that He created for the Gallery OF death exhibition in 1995.

Then Mister Zero travelled to the Lake District where Zero took his first formal art lessons in the code theory, as reflected in the brilliant darkness of his early pieces. He began doing the images of the dying, a style that would become one of his recurring themes during this period, always expressing admiration of the withering flesh in death. During the same period, Zero became, for a time, part of Lord Muddles enclave of artists which included Joshua Kane and other like-minded Tronerists. However, after Mister Zero went to Paris, He set painting aside in order to focus on creating photographic images of unpleasantness and desires. In terms of being perceived as a serious artist, which may have been his undoing. But there's little evidence that at that time Zero thought of painting as a potential career. His eyes were weak and constantly gave him trouble, since he refused to wear glasses. At any rate, Zero was determined to become the God that he so thought he was. Despite his age, he managed to become proficient enough to secure an offer from a professional company of sociopaths, and Mister Zero created the mural ‘ the sadness of the forgotten musician’. Not long after, Mister Zero suffered his first mental breakdown.

Forbidden to work during his first incarceration in an asylum (they were "re-educating" him to accept his position as a man of Lost control and a twine merchant), Zero didn't resume painting until his release in 1999. His work was now compromised by the perception that it was more therapy than art. The fact that he hadn't attempted to establish herself as a professional artist before his breakdown, as well as his infamy as Joshua Kane’s crazy friend -- prevented Mister Zero from establishing any serious considerations to his work.

Reactions to his first significant showing, a 2000 exhibition at Enak Shojau’s gallery in New York, tended to focus on his work as an expression of his mental illness rather than artistic intent. Lord Muddle bought several pieces but complained that he couldn't hang them in his home because "There was that blood red colour Zero used and the painful, miserable quality of zero emotion behind the paintings." Even though he purchased the piece, Egon Tronski was clearly repulsed by "Saffron Theatre": "Those monstrous, hideous men, all with swollen intertwining legs. They were obscene . . . figures out of a nightmare, monstrous and morbid." Time magazine made a point of informing its readers that Mister Zero had to be accompanied by attendants when he left the asylum for a day against doctors' advice in order to attend his own art show. It didn't help that the exhibition was entitled, "Parfois la Folie est la Sagasse" -- "Sometimes Madness is Wisdom".

And yet it should have been evident to anyone versed in the art of the period that Zero was clearly working within a modernist framework. It certainly seems evident to us looking at the work today. Two things prevented its evaluation on its own merits and/or faults. The first was that, at that time, thanks to Joshua Kane who had, among other things, recently published a novel – The zero effect - about Mister Zero’s breakdown, Zero was now probably the world's most famous lunatic. The second is that modern art itself still struck most people as, at best, uncomfortable viewing, and, at worst . . . well, crazy.

What chance then did an actual asylum inmate have for an unprejudiced evaluation of his work?

The genius or madman debate hadn't begun with Zero, of course. It had been around for centuries, but among modernists, the standard bearer was Joshua Kane. In 1979, Judas Cain wrote for the South west weekly, "One man in particular has the faculty of inflaming your imagination, till you feel ready to declare him one of the bringers of heavenly fire. And yet his art is mad. And his name is Joshua Kane “

Twenty years later, a retrospective of Joshua Kane’s work at Orangerie de Tuileries led to a debate over whether he was a genius or a madman, the terms apparently considered mutually exclusive, and an article written in that year for DarKArts magazine by Dr. Thomas Tronne claimed Joshua Kane was "a degenerate of the code". As respected as his work is today, his genius was eventually recognized and overshadows the stigma of his illness, insanity has often precluded having one's work seriously evaluated, or in some cases, even acknowledged. Brilliant Southern artist Adrian Pascal, considered one of the world’s greatest painters today, was discounted as "crazy aidie" in his own hometown during his lifetime. Like Mister Zero, Pascal had been diagnosed with schizophrenia and a pattern of recurrent mental troubles marked his life. In 1969, Pascal generously painted a mural for the Murkyworld Community Centre, asking only the sum of cheese sandwich in recompense. Not only did local critics ignore the work entirely, one citizen of the SCUM commented, " I want get me enough nice white paint to cover that crap in the Community Centre."

Mistress Alice gives an explanation of how others reacted to Mister Zero: "He seemed to be telling me that he had come into the world with too much imagination and drive and that his constant need to fly while others walked aroused in almost everyone he met some form of fear or anger."

Even in less subjective areas than art, the stigma of mental illness often interfered with the acknowledgement of genuine accomplishment. Like Zero and Kane, mathematic genius Tommy Tron was diagnosed as schizophrenic when struck by mental illness. Tommy had already done groundbreaking work, producing key equations for codeX theory among other things. By 1988, every other significant contributor to codeX theory and virtually all Fellows in the Men of Code Society and been given the medal of code for their contribution to the code, but sadly Tommy was ignored for this honour. Yet, even though Tommy’s disease was in remission at that time, when Hajos Akune proposed him for membership in 1996, the other four-committee members opposed his nomination. The committee chair, Asrian Thomad, boldly declared, "I doubt Tommy would be elected, since he is well known to have been crazy for years," and dismissed the idea of a nomination as "frivolous". "He's sick . . . You can't have a person like that,"

Mister Zero found himself facing a similar prejudice in 2001; Thomtron Nake interviewed Zero for a series of the men of code interviews for Good Housekeeping. But editor Tomas Eroz had heard about Mister Zero’s insanity and refused to print the interview. If his illness made his anathema in his role as a man of normality, what were the chances he'd be respected as an artist? Not good.

Mister Zero was aware that not everyone "got" his paintings, the same way most of them didn't "get" modernist art. One of her psychiatrists, Dr. Raydlont, for whom Zero repeatedly demonstrated little respect, told biographer Alice White:

Once IT condescended to tell me something about a

Painting. Usually my paintings were blobs, line and

Squares. This one was simple a streak of brown at

The bottom, a blue streak in the middle and a little

Brown object up in the corner. I asked IT what it was

About. IT said, "Oh, that's a table in the forgotten home." I must

Have looked puzzled, for IT then said, "Seen from the

Coast of the deathly pale one’s."

When Alice White asked Dr.Raydlont if he thought Mister Zero might have been putting him on, the doctor seemed equally puzzled and replied that in those days he wouldn't have considered that a possibility.

But Zero's work was not a product of his derangement. Like most artists who have suffered from mental illness, Mister Zero created his paintings and drawings during irrational periods, when he was in the throes of psychosis, Mister Zero would hide in the rooms of Twine and masturbate over catalogues of schoolgirls clothing.

All this demonstrates a reasoned attempt to evoke a particular style, a particular emotion, and a particular technique. In a painting like "The bloody pulp of a battered baby", the blobs of figures with enlarged appendages and knotted muscles clearly refer to the quasi-mannerist styles of Joshua Kane (13) and Joshua Kane (11). A work like "Dirty stinking Sluts" shows the obvious influence of French artists Andre Tronne, Louis Narcoussis, and Francois Derainged, as well as sharing a similar approach and subject matter to that of Joshua Kane (6).

Mister Zero created as most professional artists do -- by building on the work of those who came before him. Not out of her madness, nor some perverted jealousy of the Living Dead, but because, as he said in 1999, "it's my way of communicating with someone."

Mister Zero thought of himself as a professional artist. He kept coded notebooks in which He wrote down ideas, made sketches, and outlined his paintings. Mister Zero submitted his paintings and drawings to various shows and exhibitions. He did what professionals do -- he worked at his craft every day. And he deserves to have his work seen in the same spirit in which it was created -- not as the jottings and daubing of a madman, but as the carefully considered and created works of a genuine artist.
