Ryan Craig Biography

Ryan Craig is one of the most popular and richest Ice Hockey Player who was born on January 6, 1982 in Abbotsford, British Columbia, Canada. Ryan Craig, born 9 January 1972, is a British playwright whose plays often probe social norms as well as ethical questions. He is also an author for television, radio and screen.

The adaptation of Tom Sharpe’s novel Vintage Stuff was presented in a touring production and Three Servants at the Warehouse in Croydon in 2002. Lucy Powell, Time Out’s reviewer, said that the play was a “neat and tightly choreographed drama” that was inspired by “Japanese comedy theatre, commedia el’arte, and The Arabian Nights”.

Craig was a founder member of a group of playwrights known as the “Monsterists”, whose philosophy was expounded by David Eldridge in an article for the Guardian in 2005. The other members, besides Eldridge, included Richard Bean, Moira Buffini, Rebecca Lenkiewicz, Colin Teevan and Roy Williams. Among the principles of Monsterism were a commitment to large-scale drama unafraid of ambitious concepts and “the elevation of new theatre writing from the ghetto of the studio ‘black box’ to the main stage”.

Also in 2005, Craig’s play Broken Road won a Fringe First at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival. The play was set entirely in a moving car, prompting the Scotsman’s reviewer Jay Richardson to call it “genuinely edge-of-the-seatbelt stuff”. The production, directed by Carrie Cracknell, briefly transferred later that year to Battersea Arts Centre.

Craig then wrote Happy Savages. John Peter, the Sunday Times’s Sunday Times columnist, described it as “tough, brutal play about vulnerable, bruised persons”. The Lyric Studio, Hammersmith produced it in 1998 with Kris Marshall and Hermione Guilliford as the cast. Bradley then offered Craig an eight-week writing assignment at the National Theatre Studio.

Craig graduated in 1994 from the University of Leeds with a BA degree in Philosophy and History. He completed the MA program in Contemporary Theatre Practice at the University of Essex in 1996. He studied among other things with Annie Castledine and Mike Alfreds.

Craig’s first play, The Sins of Dalia Baumgarten was written for an Essex directing project in 1995. The play is set primarily in the ladies’ squat at a Jewish wedding. All of its characters are secular London Jewish, as are many of his later plays. The Sins of Dalia Baumgarten were performed in London in June 1996 at the Etcetera Theatre in Camden. It was described by Edward Simpkins, in What’s On, as a portrait “drunken, but cathartic, social swirl”, and Bradley encouraged Craig not to stop writing.

Craig was writer in residence at BBC Radio Drama in 2005. His radio plays include A Question of Judgement, English in Afghanistan, The Lysistrata Project, Hold My Breath, Portugal, The Great Pursuit and Looking for Danny.

Craig’s next play was The Holy Rosenbergs, which premiered at the National Theatre in 2011, directed by Laurie Sansom and starring Henry Goodman. It centres on the North London Rosenberg family, kosher caterers, on the eve of their son’s funeral. Danny, a pilot in the Israeli air-force, had been killed in action over Gaza; his sister, Ruth, is a lawyer investigating alleged human rights abuses by the Israeli Defence Forces. The play examines family conflict, guilt and the impact of Israeli politics within the London Jewish community. Critics compared the play to Arthur Miller’s All My Sons and Death of a Salesman, and Craig indeed shares Miller’s obsession with achieving ethical clarity in a nebulous world. Writing for The Arts Desk, Aleks Sierz applauded a play that “buzzes with discussion and debate”, concluding that “In the clarity of its construction, the tension of its climax and the slow unveiling of its emotional core, this is a very fine play indeed”. In The Times, Libby Purves wrote that “The play educates and provokes” and “is startlingly fair” – “clear, gripping, moving, at times extremely funny, and important”.

Interviewed in 2017 by Jessie Thompson for the Evening Standard, Craig remarked, “Just a cursory look at my output thus far will show a preoccupation with the theme of Jewish identity. I feel like the senile, old father in Wallander, obsessively painting the exact same section of forest, but with a different mood.”
