Persons of Note: Alfred Jarry further research

I tried to watch some videos on Alfred Jarry to learn a bit more about the play Ubu Roi but most of the videos are in french which makes it quite difficult to understand. However, I know that Ubu Roi is an absurdist play anyway so the dialogue probably isn't too essential. For the purpose of this project I'm more concerned with imagery anyway, and theres some key things that could be instantly associated with Alfred Jarry and Ubu Roi in these videos.



The swirling black and white figure of Ubu Roi is probably the mostly recognisable. There is also a lot of typical theatre props and settings that could also be incorporated into any visual responses I make to this person of note.
