在过去二十七年中,约瑟夫已在美国、英国和中国导演过近五十部古今话剧、音乐剧和歌剧,包括《罗密欧与朱丽叶》,《理查三世》,《仲夏夜之梦》,《炼金术士》,《海鸥》,《三姊妹》,《野鸭》和《屋顶上的小提琴手》等,他曾工作过的剧院有威尔士国家剧院,英国皇家剧院,海马克剧院(西区)等。
迄今他已饰演过100多个话剧角色,包括哈姆雷特、亨利五世、李尔王、理查三世、塔杜夫和万尼亚等。在舞台与电影创作方面,约瑟夫硕果颇丰,作品包括为维亚康姆创作的电影《蜜水》和由奥斯卡获得主约翰•米尔斯主演的《汉娜与杰克》。他的舞台作品《悔》、《班扬》和《文字马戏团》已在洛杉矶威尔逊剧院、英国的珀斯常目剧院以及莫斯科艺术剧院等上演。约瑟夫曾在英国伦敦音乐戏剧学院(LAMDA)接受过正规戏剧训练。
《一个人的莎士比亚》是一部原创英语独角戏,由美国资深戏剧家约瑟夫•格雷夫斯创作并表演,由中国青年导演胡晓庆执导。
剧作取材于格雷夫斯的亲身经历和他丰富的莎士比亚戏剧表导演创作,以魔幻的手法编织出一个发生在迷茫的六岁男孩儿与苛刻严厉的莎士比亚老师之间令人捧腹而又感人至深的故事。
年仅六岁的时候,格雷夫斯寄宿在一所英国的男子学校,不幸遇到了才华横溢而又嗜酒如命的克莱夫•瑞维尔校长对新生开展的军训式莎士比亚教育。在迷茫与懵懂、羞愧与坚持中,格雷夫斯渐渐走进了瑞维尔校长的莎士比亚世界:爱、激情、诗歌、悔恨、沉淀……
《一个人的莎士比亚》已在北京北剧场、人艺小剧场、天桥小剧场、香港、澳门和台北等多地演出。
Over the last twenty-seven years, Joseph has directed over fifty stage productions, including classical, contemporary, musical theatre and opera, in America, Great Britain and China, such productions include: Romeo and Juliet, Richard III, A Midsummer’s Night Dream, The Alchemist, The Sea Gull, Three Sisters, The Private Lives of The Master Race and Fiddler on the Roof at such notable venues as: The Welsh National Theatre, The Royal Court Theatre, and The Haymarket Theatre (West End) in Great Britain and numerous theatres throughout America as well as several in China.
He has appeared as an actor in over one hundred stage roles, and dozens of television productions, performing such famous characters as Hamlet, Henry V, King Lear, Richard III, Tartuffe and Uncle Vanya to name but a few. Graves has also written extensively for film and stage, including such films as Sweetwater for Viacom, and Hannah and Jack for Academy Award winner, Sir John Mills, along with many others. His plays, such as Revoco, Bunyan, and Word Circus, have received productions at such venues as The Wilshire Theatre in Los Angeles, Perth Repertory Theatre in Great Britain and The Moscow Art Theatre in Russia. His latest play, Revel’s World of Shakespeare, was given its world premiere in Beijing in the summer of 2005.
Joseph received his formal theatrical training at The London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art (LAMDA).
Revel’s World of Shakespeare was written and will be performed by Joseph Graves, and directed by Xiaoqing Hu. Graves draws heavily on his considerable personal experiences with Shakespearean plays and study for the play’s articulations. Graves magically weaves a wildly comedic and deeply moving tale of childhood confusion and exploration, relating it all to the greatest of English writers, William Shakespeare.
At six years of age Graves was introduced to Shakespeare at the difficult hands and demanding styles of his brilliant, though drunken teacher, Clive T. Revel (whose last name inspires the title of the piece) headmaster of The Chelsea School for Boys in London, England were young Graves matriculated. The first two years of their alternately hilarious and stormy relationship, (which eventually spanned some forty years) are explored in depth in this provocative, thought provoking and charmingly written new American play.
Revel’s World of Shakespeare has so far performed in Beijing, Hong Kong, Macau and Taipei.
