Revolution, Song Lyrics By John Lennon And Paul Mccartney Playscript, Leroy C. Boyd Iii

Institute for the Humanities Theses

Revolution is a two-act play inspired by the works of John Lennon and Paul McCartney, formerly of the rock and roll music quartet known as The Beatles. Originally meant for a production, the play studies the lack of respect people have for the performing arts. It also examines the negative stereotypes that society places upon people who are actively involved within the arts and humanities.

The selection of songs from the Lennon-McCartney catalogue are synthesized with an original story line. The songs will reflect the feelings of a particular character at the time of a vocal performance.

Born in Almería at the outset of the Spanish Civil War, Gómez-Arcos began his career in Madrid as an award-winning playwright. Eventually his ongoing struggle against Francoist censorship prompted his voluntary exile from Spain in 1966, and following a two-year sojourn in London, he arrived in Paris amid the clamor of 1968. Since that time he …
