Charles Ludlam

    Charles Ludlam bol americký herec, režisér a dramatik, zakladateľ Ridiculous Theatrical Company. Jeho hry, často využívajúce pastiš starých filmov, gotických románov a Shakespeara, boli známe svojím humorom a prekvapivou hĺbkou. Ludlam veril v rozvíjanie klasickej komediálnej tradície a tvrdil, že originalita môže vzkvitať v rámci zavedených konvencií. Často sám účinkoval vo svojich inscenáciách, najmä v ženských úlohách, a jeho dielo sa dotýkalo aj vážnych tém, ako je HIV. Jeho hry, ako napríklad "Tajemství Irmy Vepové", sa stali populárnymi vďaka svojej jedinečnej zmesi paródie a inteligentného humoru.
