A life in Lennon's shoes,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]
MARK McGANN continues to be becoming John Winston Lennon for almost as long as he can remember. In fact,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], he's been giving performances as his Liverpudlian compatriot in public performances for pretty much exactly the same period of time as Lennon was on stage, having first played the working-class hero back when he only agreed to be 18.
Now 48, McGann admits he was "just a snotty-nosed backstreet kid from Liverpool" when he first donned the Lennon wig and trademark round glasses -- a role he now jokingly refers to as his "pension fund" -- but as he prepares to perform the great man's songbook in the National Concert Hall in Dublin, he's in a position to take a contemplative take a look at Lennon's life. "It's more acceptable to be reflective when I'm doing him now," he admits that. "I'd have to be, because I'm now seven years over the age of he was when he died."
It's easy to spot McGann when he arrives for lunch at River Cottage within the picturesque town of Bath in south-west England. The McGann clan are instantly recognisable. If he wasn't familiar from his portrayals of Lennon on stage or screen,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], or his role within the Hanging Gale (the BBC drama series he also produced centred around the Irish Famine) or as explorer Tom Crean alongside Kenneth Branagh's Ernest Shackleton within the film concerning the fearless explorer, then you are certain to come across among his near-identical looking brothers, Paul, Joe or Stephen,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], who're also professional actors.
While Paul will forever be noted for his performance in Withnail and that i,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Mark makes Lennon something of his trademark. "If it is a case to be born to experience a job and this is the role I was born to play, then I'd prefer to that than Alfie Bass or de Valera or someone like this," McGann explains. "It's a genuine joy [to play him] and I've never felt that I've done it a lot that I've ever tired of doing it or it would be a strain."
McGann's journey as Lennon has brought him around the world many times over, and into connection with those inherently intertwined within the Beatles story. While filming the film John and Yoko -- A Love Story for American television, he had his first encounter with Lennon's second wife.
"I'm filming a sequence outside the Dakota building in Ny and we were going to do the scene where he got shot. The next thing that occurs is the fact that Sean, who's about 10 at that time, and Yoko appeared before me. Sean takes one take a look at me and freaks out and starts crying. Yoko got really embarrassed and said she'd call me in the hotel afterwards."
She invited him to come and visit her within the seventh-floor apartment where she lived with Lennon. "I increase there also it was spooky,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]," he explains. "This was 5 years after he died. His cat is roaming around -- she said hello hadn't been exactly the same since he died -- the white piano can there be within the room where he wrote Imagine with the Elizabeth Browning prints he bought on her.
"Then we began to talk and she said, 'OK,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], give me an idea to understand?' I'm able to remember telling her what was it like about the first night they spent together.
"She said, 'I won't enter in the gory details',[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], however it was all happening at John's house in Surrey. Cynthia [Lennon's first wife] was away with Julian at the time. She said they'd played music all night and done all this kind of stuff and on the Sunday morning John went out to get the papers. When John came back,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], he place them over the coffee table, but when Yoko reached to take one of the papers he slapped her hand."
McGann asked her if he was joking and she asserted he meant it: "[John] looked at me and he said, 'I read them first'.''
"So Gurus her what did she do and she said, 'That was the first thing I sorted out'. The reason it was so poignant and revealing in my experience was that I don't believe anyone else in his life as much as that time could cope with him. I believe she was. I believe she was much-maligned also it was outrageous what went down to her."
Becoming an adult in Liverpool within the Sixties and Seventies as four local boys changed the face area of music, it had been inevitable that impressionable teenagers would end up with a guitar within their hand, and Mark was no different, although he insists that it is not just the influence of the Beatles that inspired his creative side.
"When leaving Liverpool the very first time, aged 16, and moving to London after which returning for any short while to finish studies,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], you feel incredibly aware that all of your social experience of growing up where we was raised -- that very close kin, familial thing -- is nearer to the Irish experience than other things. I suppose it's really no surprise whenever you suppose the results of the Diaspora -- a doubling in the population of Liverpool practically overnight within the mid-1800s. It's a very Irish place.
"It didn't make sense fully until I visited Ireland for the first time and located myself surrounded not only by individuals who looked a lot more like us than people externally of Liverpool, but who also were built with a similar sensibility. Liverpool, so far as the arts were concerned, may be the only northern working-class city where it wasn't frowned upon to consider just as one actor. Should you originated from Manchester or Leeds,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], there must have been something effeminate about contemplating it but we always were built with a massive tradition from it, and I think that's Irish. It's the same with the background music."
While the McGanns are an acting and musical dynasty that belongs to them, Mark is married into a much more famous family name. His wife is Caroline Guinness, daughter of Jacqueline Brink and Howard Guinness,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], who was from a South African branch from the family.
He was instantly smitten, seeing her at a party held by Jackie and Bill Curbishley, former manager from the Who. "I said to this bloke,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], 'Who is that woman?' She had this amazing energy about her enjoy it was this light. As well as I realised it was the very first time I had truly fallen in love."
What he didn't know at that time was that Caroline was HIV-positive, a result of a one- off sexual encounter in the mid-Eighties. The two became friends for a year,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], with Caroline unaware that Mark had learned of her condition coupled with met consultants alone to understand about the disease. "I go about discovering as much as I could to save both our anxieties," he explains.
"One day she spoke with my brother Joe and believed to him, 'There's something I must tell you. I really like Mark.' He explained: 'You two should meet up. You would be ideal for each other.' So she said to him, 'I've actually got a confession to make. I'm HIV positive.' He said: 'Caroline,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], we all know that.'"
Away from her courtship with Mark, Caroline have been campaigning for awareness and funding for what ended up being a comparatively new illness. "She was so courageous; she stood up in the House of Commons in the Eighties and spoke about this. She helped begin a charity called Positively Women because there was nothing available for heterosexual women, it was all just for gay men."
The two happen to be married since 2000 and together work towards greater awareness of the illness and safe-sex methods. "She's an exceptional woman," McGann says. "I can live with the risks. I take bigger risks each time I get into my car. There is no reason for living life in denial of anything. Acceptance may be the only way forward, however it doesn't define who we're.
"If it wasn't for the challenges that go hand-in-hand with Caroline's condition we wouldn't have the depth and extra dimensions to our relationship that I suspect other married people don't have. We are incredibly dedicated to each other."相关的主题文章:
