Timeline

Robert Holman (1952 – 3 December 2021) was a British dramatist whose work has been produced by the Royal Shakespeare Company (RSC) and the Royal Court Theatre, as well as in the West End and elsewhere, since the 1970s.

He was a resident dramatist at both the RSC and the National Theatre.

1970

Holman's work has been produced at a variety of venues since the 1970s.

The venues for the premieres of these plays tended to be subsidised new writing theatres such as the Royal Court and the Bush Theatre, as well as the studio spaces of the Royal Shakespeare Company.

1974

Holman was brought up on a farm in North Yorkshire and worked as a bookshop assistant at Paddington station for three years after leaving school before receiving an Arts Council bursary in 1974.

From then on, he wrote plays which have impressed critics, directors and actors, without ever becoming what might be termed a fashionable writer.

1984

Critical reaction has wavered from the enthusiastic and respectful to the bemused, the latter especially when his 1984 play Other Worlds featured a talking monkey.

1992

His plays tend to concentrate on the emotional lives of seemingly ordinary people, although he writes in his 1992 novel The Amish Landscape that "Most people think they live ordinary lives, but nobody's life is ordinary, is it?"

Unlike more obviously politically committed writers – for example Edward Bond, Caryl Churchill or David Hare – Holman writes neither issue plays nor ones which lead audiences to predetermined ideological ends.

His plays are often set in specific landscapes, with scenes set out of doors preferred over domestic interiors.

Recurring tropes in his plays include the family, intergenerational relationships and meetings between strangers.

Academic commentary on Holman's work is scarce.

1999

In 1999, his trilogy of short plays Making Noise Quietly was revived by the Oxford Stage Company in the West End at the Whitehall Theatre.

2003

In 2003, as well as the premiere of a new play at Chichester, there was a major retrospective of his work at the Royal Exchange Theatre.

2008

In 2008, Jonah and Otto premiered at the Royal Exchange Theatre with Ian McDiarmid and Andrew Sheridan.

2010

In 2010, the three men collaborated on The Thousand Stars in the Sky, performed at the Lyric Hammersmith.

A documentary, Robert Holman, A Writer's Writer was made by the Donmar Warehouse, celebrating Holman's influence on younger writers including David Eldridge, Simon Stephens]], Samantha Ellis, Duncan Macmillan and Ben Musgrave.

Holman died on 3 December 2021, at the age of 69.

2012

In 2012, Making Noise Quietly was revived at the Donmar Warehouse, directed by Peter Gill.

2014

In 2014, Jonah and Otto was revived at London's Park Theatre, in a production directed by Tim Stark.

2016

In 2016, German Skerries was revived at the Orange Tree Theatre, in a production directed by Alice Hamilton.

Holman was an acknowledged inspiration for some of the younger generation of British playwrights, including David Eldridge and Simon Stephens.
