    Brea Wardlaw Meigs Academic Magnet Middle School • Title: Actress • Job Description: An actor is a person who portrays a character in a performance (also actress; see below).[1] The actor performs "in the flesh" in the traditional medium of the theatre or in modern media such as film, radio, and television. The analogous Greek term is ὑποκριτής (hupokritḗs), literally "one who answers".[2] The actor's interpretation of their role—the art of acting—pertains to the role played, whether based on a real person or fictional character.* *Source: en.m.wikipedia.org • Why would I like to have this job? I’d like to be an actress because I LOVE to act. It’s fun because I can get to be a different person. It’s like being your own alter ego. I feel happy and powerful when I’m acting. The best thing about it is getting to tell a story in your own way, by acting the words you say (haha that rhymes!) What makes a good actress? To be a good actor/actress, you have to feel the part to be the part. And you have to be passionate about the role you are playing. Having chemistry and getting along with the other cast members is also a very important part of acting. A good actor/actress also needs to step out of his or her comfort zone, every once in a while so they can embrace themselves. Are you a good actress? I feel like I am. I feel like I have all of the right traits and abilities and the right personality.

Host James Corden and the night's biggest winners paid emotional tribute to the 49 people killed in the attack and the more than 50 people wounded. Earlier in the day, organizers had released a statement saying that the show would go on and be dedicated to the families and friends of those affected by the deadliest mass shooting in modern U.S. history. "Our hearts are heavy for the unimaginable tragedy that happened last night in Orlando," the organizers said. Corden, host of The Late Late Show, opened the ceremony with a brief message about the mass shooting: "Good evening.

  • Who Lives, Who Dies, Who Tells Your Story?: Gendered Legacies in Hamilton
    Who Lives, Who Dies, Who Tells Your Story?: Gendered Legacies in Hamilton JESSICA SEYMOUR Hamilton: An American Musical, written, composed by, and starring Lin- Manuel Miranda, made its Broadway debut in August 2015. Since then, Hamilton has won the Pulitzer Prize for Drama and a record-breaking sixteen Tony Award nominations. Miranda also received a $625,000 MacArthur Fellowship, more commonly referred to as a “Genius Grant”. Hamilton has been heralded as a game-changer for Broadway musicals, starring a racially- diverse cast and supported by contemporary music styles including rap, hip hop, and jazz. It is one of the most popularly successful musicals in recent memory, inspired by the life and times of American founding-father Alexander Hamilton. One of the key themes in the Hamilton musical is the concept of legacy. In historical terms, a legacy is handed down from one generation to another. Glenn Llopis writes in an article for Forbes that leaving a legacy should be a key concern for leaders who want to perform to the best of their ability in business: “The best leadership legacies are a consequence of success coming to those who are surrounded by people that want their success to continue.” Other authors and analysts (see Kerr, Wallace, Hunt, Galford and Maruca) write that workers can and should tailor their careers to suit the personal legacy they wish to leave behind. In a Time magazine interview written by JJ Abrams, Lin-Manuel Miranda stated that he has been preoccupied with legacy “since [he] was a kid”: We have this amount of time.

  • The Kennedy Center Honors Felt Different, and It Was All Because of ‘Hamilton’
    The Kennedy Center Honors felt different, and it was all because of ‘Hamilton’ By Peter Marks Published: December 2, 2018 Cher, Reba McEntire, and the creators of the Broadway musical "Hamilton" received this year's Kennedy Center Honors in the District on Dec. 2. (Reuters) The Kennedy Center Honors stepped out of its comfort zone Sunday night, conferring recognition for the first time on a living, breathing work of art, along with four seasoned — and also living and breathing — American artists. And the change felt both fresh and a little fraught. By adding a popular musical, the universally celebrated “Hamilton,” to a historic list of honorees that has run alphabetically over the past 41 years from George Abbott to Joanne Woodward, the Kennedy Center radically revised the rules and, in a way, the lavish ceremony that fetes the winners. The other winners this year were singer and actress Cher, country music star Reba McEntire, jazz great Wayne Shorter and avant-garde composer Philip Glass. The Washington Chorus Washington Post: “The Kennedy Center Honors felt different” The joyful aspect was in infusing the program — a show to be broadcast on CBS, after all, as well as a fundraiser — with the music and star power of a dazzling Broadway blockbuster and a quartet of artists at the pinnacle of their careers. It is likely that in doling out special Honors to “Hamilton” composer Lin-Manuel Miranda, director Thomas Kail, music director Alex Lacamoire and choreographer Andy Blankenbuehler, the arts center is making a direct appeal to a younger audience for the relevance of the awards.

  • Deanna Druskat Professor Trachtenberg Intro to Journalism
    Deanna Druskat Professor Trachtenberg Intro to Journalism and Nonfiction March 31, 2016 The Hamilton Soundtrack I am not a musical theater person. Sure I’ve seen the Lion King on Broadway and my high school’s productions of Hairspray and Legally Blonde, other than that I never really understood the appeal. That was until recently when my roommate introduced me to the world of musical theater. There’s one musical in particular that I’ve become addicted to: Hamilton. A musical by the famous Lin-Manuel Miranda about Alexander Hamilton, a United States founding father who doesn’t receive enough recognition for his accomplishments. I’ve never actually seen the musical… tickets cost over 300 dollars. I have, however, listened to every song on the Hamilton soundtrack from beginning to end, countless times. For most musicals, the whole story is in the music. You don’t need to see the musical to understand what’s happening, although the visuals definitely help. Ever since I started listening to the music back in January, I haven’t been able to stop. A day doesn’t go by where I don’t listen to at least one song. Most of my friends are highly irritated by my constant singing and by the amount of times I’ve requested Hamilton be played. It’s frustrating because I know that if they gave it a chance, they would love it. The Soundtrack opens with the song “Alexander Hamilton” which is the perfect introduction to the musical. The first lines of a musical are arguably the most important (which is something you could say about most writing), Lin-Manuel sets up the musical perfectly: How does a bastard, orphan, son of a whore and a Scotsman, dropped in the middle of a Forgotten spot in the Caribbean by providence Impoverished, in squalor Grow up to be a hero and a scholar? This opening verse right away tells you that he was born into a difficult life – by stating that he was an impoverished orphan in squalor.

More information about this work at: https://academicworks.cuny.edu/yc_pubs/194 Discover additional works at: https://academicworks.cuny.edu This work is made publicly available by the City University of New York (CUNY). Contact: [email protected] Abstract: This article examines the ways in which Hamilton: An American Musical can be read less as a historical account and more as a prediction of a future immigrant, who is called upon to (re)define US nationhood. Keeping with the tempo of the musical as well as the broader issues of time, space, and identity it attempts to address, this article is presented as a dialogical rap. The co-authors’ discussion frames Hamilton as an example of the power of unplottable, time- arresting immigrant bodies, to whom the colonial imposition of linear history does not apply. From this framework, the authors’ conversation shifts to critiques of racialized tropes running through the production as well as the inaccessibility of theatre tickets. The goal of this dialogical analysis is to invite further debate about the kinds of immigrant time/space travel that make visible questions of agency, representation, and access. Keywords: Hamilton, immigrant, temporality, race Who Tells Our Story: Intersectional Temporalities in Hamilton, An American Musical Lin-Manuel Miranda’s (re)imagined hip-hop tale opens from the perspective of its self- proclaimed villain, Aaron Burr (2015).
