It is an adaptation of the 1943 novel of the same name by American author Ayn Rand. The story focuses on Howard Roark, an individualistic architect who designs modernist buildings and refuses to compromise with an architectural establishment unwilling to accept innovation. The production, running more than four hours, uses video projections to show close-ups of the actors and Roark's drawings, as well as backgrounds of the New York skyline.[1][1] PlotHoward Roark, a modernist architect who refuses to follow traditional styles, struggles to develop a successful career. He competes with rival architects Peter Keating and Guy Francon, who copy past buildings to achieve public acceptance. Cast and charactersThe characters and cast from the original Amsterdam production are listed below:
HistoryAuthor Ayn Rand's bestselling novel The Fountainhead, a 700-page epic,[4] was published in 1943.[5] Belgian theatre director Ivo van Hove, the artistic director for the Dutch theater company Toneelgroep Amsterdam, was given a copy of the novel as a gift in 2007. After reading it, he was immediately interested in adapting it for the stage, but he was not able to secure the adaptation rights until 2012.[2] The four-hour-plus production[4] debuted at the Holland Festival on 15 June 2014.[3] Ramsey Nasr starred as Howard Roark, with Halina Reijn as Dominique Francon.[3] After its debut the play went on tour, appearing in Barcelona, Spain, in early July 2014[4] and at the Festival d'Avignon in France later that month.[5] The play appeared at the Odéon-Théâtre de l'Europe in Paris in November 2016.[6] The company traveled to the Republic of Korea in 2017, presenting the play at the LG Arts Center in Seoul from 31 March to 2 April.[7][8] Later in 2017, the play had its first American production at the Brooklyn Academy of Music's Next Wave Festival, where it ran from 28 November to 2 December.[9] ReceptionThe European productions of the play received mostly positive reviews. The Festival d'Avignon production received positive from the French newspapers La Croix,[1] Les Échos,[10] and Le Monde,[11] as well as from the English newspaper The Guardian, whose reviewer described it as "electrifying theatre".[12] The French magazine Télérama gave the Avignon production a negative review, calling the source material inferior and complaining about the use of video screens on the set,[13] while another French magazine, La Terrasse, complimented the staging and acting of the Odéon production.[6] American critics gave mostly negative reviews of the Next Wave Festival production. Helen Shaw's review for The Village Voice said the adaptation was unwatchable because it portrayed Rand's characters and views seriously without undercutting them.[14] The reviewer for the Financial Times said the play was too long and that Hove had approached Rand's "noxious" book with too much reverence.[15] In a mixed review for The New York Times, critic Ben Brantley complimented Hove for capturing Rand's "sheer pulp appeal", but described the material as "hokum with a whole lot of ponderous speeches".[16] A review for The Huffington Post complimented van Hove's ability to portray Rand's message, but said the play was an hour too long.[17] References1. ^1 {{harvnb|Méreuze|2014}} 2. ^1 {{cite news |first=Ivan |last=Talijancic |title=Ivo van Hove with Ivan Talijancic |work=The Brooklyn Rail |date=2 November 2017 |url=https://brooklynrail.org/2017/11/theater/IVO-VAN-HOVE-with-Ivan-Talijancic |access-date=30 November 2017}} 3. ^1 2 {{cite web |url=http://www.hollandfestival.nl/en/program/2014/the-fountainhead/ |title=The Fountainhead: World Premier |publisher=Holland Festival |access-date=19 August 2014 |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20140820075332/http://www.hollandfestival.nl/en/program/2014/the-fountainhead/ |archivedate=20 August 2014 |df=dmy-all }} 4. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.tga.nl/en/news/the-fountainhead-in-barcelona-03072014 |title=The Fountainhead in Barcelona |publisher=Toneelgroep Amsterdam |access-date=19 August 2014}} 5. ^1 {{harvnb|Candoni|2014}} 6. ^1 {{harvnb|Santi|2016}} 7. ^{{cite news |last=Yim |first=Seung-hye |title=Fountainhead Put on Stage by Dutch Director |work=Korea JoongAng Daily |date=1 April 2017 |url=http://koreajoongangdaily.joins.com/news/article/article.aspx?aid=3031658 |access-date=30 November 2017}} 8. ^{{cite news |last=Yoon |first=Min-sik |title=Van Hove Asks, 'Idealism or Practicality?'
