He soon became involved in the scoring of radio dramas with the innovative and experimental series Columbia Workshop.

  • The Dublin Gate Theatre Archive, 1928 - 1979
    Charles Deering McCormick Library of Special Collections Northwestern University Libraries Dublin Gate Theatre Archive The Dublin Gate Theatre Archive, 1928 - 1979 History: The Dublin Gate Theatre was founded by Hilton Edwards (1903-1982) and Micheál MacLiammóir (1899-1978), two Englishmen who had met touring in Ireland with Anew McMaster's acting company. Edwards was a singer and established Shakespearian actor, and MacLiammóir, actually born Alfred Michael Willmore, had been a noted child actor, then a graphic artist, student of Gaelic, and enthusiast of Celtic culture. Taking their company’s name from Peter Godfrey’s Gate Theatre Studio in London, the young actors' goal was to produce and re-interpret world drama in Dublin, classic and contemporary, providing a new kind of theatre in addition to the established Abbey and its purely Irish plays. Beginning in 1928 in the Peacock Theatre for two seasons, and then in the theatre of the eighteenth century Rotunda Buildings, the two founders, with Edwards as actor, producer and lighting expert, and MacLiammóir as star, costume and scenery designer, along with their supporting board of directors, gave Dublin, and other cities when touring, a long and eclectic list of plays. The Dublin Gate Theatre produced, with their imaginative and innovative style, over 400 different works from Sophocles, Shakespeare, Congreve, Chekhov, Ibsen, O’Neill, Wilde, Shaw, Yeats and many others. They also introduced plays from younger Irish playwrights such as Denis Johnston, Mary Manning, Maura Laverty, Brian Friel, Fr. Desmond Forristal and Micheál MacLiammóir himself. Until his death early in 1978, the year of the Gate’s 50th Anniversary, MacLiammóir wrote, as well as acted and designed for the Gate, plays, revues and three one-man shows, and translated and adapted those of other authors.

  • EASTMAN NOTES JUNE 2004 Draft: Final Date: 6/15/2004 INSIDE
    NOTES JUNE 2004 A MAGAZINE FOR ALUMNI OF THE EASTMAN SCHOOL OF MUSIC FROM THE EDITOR The right “stu≠” Dear Eastman Alumni: We like Notes’ new look, and it seems you do too. Response has been unani- mously favorable; perhaps we should consider a Steve Boerner–David Cowles NOTES presidential ticket for 2008. I’d vote for them; these two artists made “Notes Volume 22, Number 2 nouveau” a pleasure, and I’m glad the pleasure was conveyed in the magazine June 2004 itself. I write the stuff, but they (and our photographers) make it look good! We also had a tremendous response to our “Eastman Alumni on CD” feature; Editor see pages 33¬34. And enough of you commented on different editorial aspects of David Raymond Notes (not always favorably) that we have a “Letters to the Editor” section, which Assistant editor may be a first for us. Christina Casey This issue of Notes is admittedly filled with history, but Susan Conkling’s re- Contributing writers minder of the great women who shaped both American music and Eastman, and Martial Bednar Amy Blum Paul Burgett’s reminder of four black composers who Christine Corrado played an important part in Eastman history, are stories Contributing photographers worth telling. As is the story of the success of Howard Kurt Brownell Hanson’s Merry Mount at the Met in 1934—a remarkable Gelfand-Piper Photography event, when you think about it. I should add a special Bob Klein Photography word of thanks here to David Peter Coppen, the Sibley Carlos Ortiz Don Ver Ploeg/VP Communications Library Archivist, who is always helpful with providing Amy Vetter historical photographs and other materials for Notes, but Photography coordinator outdid himself for these three articles.

  • El Film-Ensayo JOSEP M
    El carácter poético del pensar se halla aún oculto. Heidegger 1. Las olvidadas raíces del film-ensayo JOSEP M. DOMÈNECH CATALÀ E 1 l término film-ensayo (Essai-film ) fue res- catado por Richard Wilson en una entrevista mantenida en 1987, para denominar el modo cinematográfico que, según él, caracterizó la última parte de la carrera El film-ensayo: de Orson Welles2. El mismo Welles lo había acuñado años antes para justificar la peculiar estructura de su película Fake (Fraude, 1973)3. No parece que el concep- to haya tenido mucho éxito, ni dentro ni fuera del campo de los estudios welle- sianos, a juzgar por su escasa aparición en los escritos sobre cine publicados des- la didáctica de entonces4. Su importancia no se circunscribe, sin embargo, a la carrera del director norteamericano, sino que abarca una forma cinematográfica que Godard ya pretendía delimitar, a propósito de Deux ou trois choses que je sais d’elle como una (1966), en los años sesenta: “Es como si yo quisiera un ensayo sociológico en for- ma de novela y, para hacerlo, no dispusiera más que de notas musicales”5. Wilson, por su parte, centraba las características del film-ensayo en las pelícu- actividad las de Welles Fake y Filming Othello (1979), pero las retrotraía a los programas de radio del director, lo cual puede explicar, aunque sea parcialmente, por qué el concepto de film-ensayo no ha despertado excesivo interés entre los teóricos, habida cuenta de que para trabajar sobre el mismo hay que efectuar una labor subversiva interdisciplinar por la que, en general, los investigadores cinematográficos no pa- recen sentir demasiado entusiasmo.

He had taken up flying before the war. He returned to NZ to Wanaka for a short time but then resumed his acting career, appearing in “the Dam Busters,” 1954. In England he married socialite Patsie Lyon nee Hambro. He retired from Acting in 1983 and they lived in the village of Coates in Gloucestershire.

    CITIZEN KANE PDF, EPUB, EBOOK Harlan Lebo | 368 pages | 01 May 2016 | Thomas Dunne Books | 9781250077530 | English | United States Citizen Kane () - IMDb Mankiewicz , who had been writing Mercury radio scripts. One of the long-standing controversies about Citizen Kane has been the authorship of the screenplay. In February Welles supplied Mankiewicz with pages of notes and put him under contract to write the first draft screenplay under the supervision of John Houseman , Welles's former partner in the Mercury Theatre. Welles later explained, "I left him on his own finally, because we'd started to waste too much time haggling. So, after mutual agreements on storyline and character, Mank went off with Houseman and did his version, while I stayed in Hollywood and wrote mine. The industry accused Welles of underplaying Mankiewicz's contribution to the script, but Welles countered the attacks by saying, "At the end, naturally, I was the one making the picture, after all—who had to make the decisions. I used what I wanted of Mank's and, rightly or wrongly, kept what I liked of my own. The terms of the contract stated that Mankiewicz was to receive no credit for his work, as he was hired as a script doctor. Mankiewicz also threatened to go to the Screen Writers Guild and claim full credit for writing the entire script by himself. After lodging a protest with the Screen Writers Guild, Mankiewicz withdrew it, then vacillated. The guild credit form listed Welles first, Mankiewicz second. Welles's assistant Richard Wilson said that the person who circled Mankiewicz's name in pencil, then drew an arrow that put it in first place, was Welles.

  • Arrested Development and the British Bildungsroman, 1805-1891
    ACCOUNTING FOR FAILURE: ARRESTED DEVELOPMENT AND THE BRITISH BILDUNGSROMAN, 1805-1891 By Stephen Grandchamp A DISSERTATION Submitted to Michigan State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of English – Doctor of Philosophy 2016 ABSTRACT ACCOUNTING FOR FAILURE: ARRESTED DEVELOPMENT AND THE BRITISH BILDUNGSROMAN, 1805-1891 By Stephen Grandchamp This dissertation argues that nineteenth-century British literature responded in a variety of critical ways to the limits of individual success and thereby constituted failure as a defining aspect of the modern subject. While scholarship typically acknowledges how nineteenth-century British developmental narratives reflected a causal link between hard work and success, this dissertation traces an alternate history of texts in the period that strongly called this association into question. These texts portray hard work that does not necessarily lead to success while also depicting failure as a generative educative process. In the process, these works beg the question: what happens if a citizen works hard and acts according to social directives but nevertheless fails in business, personal relations, or expected individual maturation? This dissertation contends that these texts, through the portrayal of failed development, express a deep skepticism of exclusionary narrative models of individual development. Moreover, these texts hypothesize preventative adaptive behaviors that enable their readerships to avert developmental failure in the context of nineteenth-century

(MUSIC: MERCURY THEATRE MUSICAL THEME) ANNOUNCER Ladies and gentlemen, the director of the Mercury Theatre and star of these broadcasts, Orson Welles. ORSON WELLES We know now that in the early years of the twentieth century this world was being watched closely by intelligences greater than man's, and yet as mortal as his own. We know now that as human beings busied themselves about their various concerns they were scrutinized and studied, perhaps almost as narrowly as a man with a microscope might scrutinize the transient creatures that swarm and multiply in a drop of water. With infinite complacence people went to and fro over the earth about their little affairs, serene in the assurance of their dominion over this small, spinning fragment of solar driftwood which, by chance or design, man has inherited out of the dark mystery of Time and Space. Yet across an immense ethereal gulf, minds that are to our minds as ours are to the beasts in the jungle, intellects vast, cool and unsympathetic, regarded this earth with envious eyes and slowly and surely drew their plans against us.

This dissertation would not have been possible without the cheerleading and assistance of my colleague at York College of PA, Kim Fahle Peck, who served as an early draft reader and advisor. I wish to acknowledge the love and support of my partner, Wesley Hannon, who encouraged me at every step in the process. I would like to dedicate this dissertation in loving memory of my mother, Evelyn Novinger Gulden, whose last Christmas gift to me of a massive dictionary has been a constant reminder that she helped me start this journey and was my angel at every step along the way.

    “The Hitchhiker” Series: Mercury Theatre Show: The Hitchhiker Date: Jun 21 1946 by Lucille Fletcher CAST: Ronald Adams (Narrator) Storekeeper Operator 2 Mrs. Adams Woman Mrs. Whitney Hitchhiker (male) Hitchhiker (female) Gas Station Attendant Operator 1 Announcer: The Columbia Network takes pleasure in bringing you...Suspense! Suspense!-- Columbia’s parade of outstanding thrillers produced and directed by William Spier and scored by Bernard Herman. The notable melodramas from stage and screen, fiction and radio, presented each week to bring you to the edge of your chair, to keep you in...Suspense! Good evening, this is Orson Welles, and very happy I am to be back in the United States and back on the Columbia Network, even for so short a visit as this one--back with old friends like Johnny Dietz, who’s tonight’s director, and Bernard Herrmann. The Mercury Theater presented tonight’s radio play for the first time last year, and we came out right then and hailed it as a classic of the media. Nobody argued the point, a lot of people asked us to do it again, so it’s gratifying to get the chance now and to find a favorite of ours in this distinguished anthology of spook shows. SOUND: (AUTO DRIVES BY) ADAMS: I'm in an auto camp on Route 66 just west of Gallup, New Mexico. If I tell it, perhaps it'll help me -- keep me from going - going crazy. I gotta tell this quickly. I'm not crazy now - I feel perfectly well, except that I'm running a slight temperature.
