  • John-Michael Tebelak Stephen Schwartz a Playgoer's Guide
    John-Michael Tebelak The Author John-Michael Tebelak (November 1, 1949–April 2, 1985) was a playwright Stephen Schwartz and director, most famous for creating Godspell . He graduated from Berea High School in Ohio in 1966. Tebelak originally produced Godspell at age 22 as his Master’s thesis project, under the tutelage of Lawrence Carra, at Carnegie Mellon University in December 1970. He had been studying Greek and Roman mythology, with the deadline for his thesis two weeks away, but became fascinated by the joy he found in the Gospels. He attended an Easter Vigil service in 1970 at Pittsburgh's St. Paul’s Cathedral, wearing his usual overalls and T-shirt. A police officer frisked him for drugs after the service. He wrote of this experience, "I left with the feeling that, rather than rolling the rock away from the Tomb, they were piling more on. I went home, took out my manuscript, and worked it to completion in a non-stop frenzy." Though he never completed his course work at the university, Carnegie Mellon nevertheless awarded him the degree. He was named Theatre Man of the Year by Elliott Norton of the Boston Record American , and Most Promising Director of 1971 by the New York Drama Desk. Among many other credits, he co-wrote with David Greene the 1973 film version of Godspell . He once said that he "walked into a theatre at the age of nine and stayed there.” He was also the dramaturge for the Cathedral of A Playgoer’s Guide Saint John the Divine in New York and staged liturgical drama there.

  • Celebrities Keeping Scientology Working Stephen A
    5 Celebrities Keeping Scientology Working Stephen A. Kent L. Ron Hubbard was prescient with his realization about the impact that stars and celebrities had upon ordinary people in mass culture. People imitated and emulated them, often modeling aspects of their own lives according to what actors did on stage or how they lived their lives off-camera. Statements that he made about the celebrities in the entertainment industry fostered among some of them an inflated feeling of self-importance, portraying them as art- ists who shaped the development of civilization. The artists who absorbed this inflated view of their contributions did so as they socialized into the subcultural world that Hubbard created, in which they equated civilizational advance with furthering Scientology’s influence. Serving Scientology, there- fore, was a means by which they felt that they were contributing to society’s advancement, and if by doing so, they caught the eye of a producer looking to fill a part in a film, then ever so much the better. This chapter examines the way that Scientology utilizes celebrities in the organization’s overall effort to “keep Scientology working.” I kept in mind the overall description of elites that appears in resource mobilization theory, since these celebrities have the flexible time, resources, and media connec- tions that allows them to open areas nationally or internationally in which they can proselytize. More importantly, however, might be the significance of having celebrity status itself, because that status carries with it forms of unique, valuable assets that its possessors can use to influence others in soci- ety.
