Valley Song

Profane Illumination: An Interview with Athol Fugard
Athol Fugard has achieved pre-eminence as a theatre director, playwright and actor, but the immediate occasion for this interview was a shared friendship with the late Don Maclennan (1929-2009). Through our memory of Don we found several intersecting interests, one being fishing and the other mortality, death and departure from the physical body. The atmosphere was light in spite of \"an old man's preoccupation with death,\" and there was laughter and silence that are not represented on the printed page. Fugard was extremely attentive when I asked my questions, read something or made an observation. The silences came and went without any awkwardness. Words and ideas were measured and weighed before we moved on, or before he responded.

Once upon a life: Athol Fugard
Athol Fugard describes the day in 1982 when he came to his senses and acknowledged that he was an alcoholic and that he was in serious trouble. The irony of it was that it came at a time when he was on Broadway with a big success, his latest play, \"Master Harold...and the Boys\". He describes how he felt he needed the stimulus of alcohol and the imaginative freedom that it gave him. He has not had a drink since that day: 18 January 1982.
