Then let us give you a little background about the place you can visit to find out everything you want to know about owning a Brownstone. In response to the growing back-to-the­ city movement that began several years ago, community leaders requested Brooklyn Union to provide a facility where people could obtain information they needed about owning and renovating a Brownstone residence. Hence, the Brownstone Information Center, as part of our 1 0-year­ old Cinderella restoration program that has been spurring the rebirth of Brooklyn, was born in 197 5. Itself a restored Brownstone, the center is staffed by community members knowledgeable about current Brownstone availabilities. As a non-profit service, they provide information regarding where and what to look for, how to arrange financing, remodeling techniques, and the positive advantages that make a Brownstone home so conducive to gracious living. So, even if you're just thinking about buying a Brownstone, visit the center for an insight into a rewarding way of life. Start by calling for an appointment today.

    Cambridge University Press 978-0-521-62472-5 - A History of African American Theatre Errol G. Hill and James V. Hatch Frontmatter More information AHistory of African American Theatre This is the first definitive history of African American theatre. The text embraces awidegeographyinvestigating companies from coast to coast as well as the anglo- phoneCaribbean and African American companies touring Europe, Australia, and Africa. This history represents a catholicity of styles – from African ritual born out of slavery to European forms, from amateur to professional. It covers nearly two and ahalf centuries of black performance and production with issues of gender, class, and race ever in attendance. The volume encompasses aspects of performance such as minstrel, vaudeville, cabaret acts, musicals, and opera. Shows by white playwrights that used black casts, particularly in music and dance, are included, as are produc- tions of western classics and a host of Shakespeare plays. The breadth and vitality of black theatre history, from the individual performance to large-scale company productions, from political nationalism to integration, are conveyed in this volume. errol g. hill was Professor Emeritus at Dartmouth College, Hanover, New Hampshire before his death in September 2003.Hetaughtat the University of the West Indies and Ibadan University, Nigeria, before taking up a post at Dartmouth in 1968.His publications include The Trinidad Carnival (1972), The Theatre of Black Americans (1980), Shakespeare in Sable (1984), The Jamaican Stage, 1655–1900 (1992), and The Cambridge Guide to African and Caribbean Theatre (with Martin Banham and George Woodyard, 1994); and he was contributing editor of several collections of Caribbean plays.

    Matthew Brannon matthew brannon As the literary form of the new bourgeoisie, the biography is a sign of escape, or, to be more precise, of evasion. In order not to expose themselves through insights that question the very existence of the bourgeoisie, writers of biographies remain, as if up against a wall, at the threshold to which they have been pushed by world events. - SIGFRIED KRACAUER, The Biography as an Art Form of the New Bourgeoisie, 1930 in The Mass Ornament: Weimar Essays, Oxford University Press, 2002 Call yourself an actor? You’re not even a bad actor. You can’t act at all, you fucking stupid hopeless sniveling little cunt-faced cunty fucking shit-faced arse-hole… - LAURENCE OLIVIER to Laurence Havery from Robert Stephen’s Knight Errant: Memoirs of a Vagabond Actor, Hodder and Stoughton, 1995 In show business, it’s folly to talk about what the future holds. Things change so fast. Today’s project so easily becomes tomorrow’s disappointment… The world of the film star is an obstacle race against time. The pitfalls and wrong turnings you can make are devastating. Often I fear for the sanity of some of my friends… The dice are loaded against you. There’s so much bitchery around, you really have to fight hard to survive. Everybody is against you… you have to fight for… success, sell your soul for it even. And when one finally achieved success, it was resented. Not by the great stars like Frank Sinatra, but by the little, frustrated people.

Foreman A Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts in Communication Studies at Liberty University May 2013 Foreman 2 Acknowledgements First and foremost, to “my Dearest, Darlingest Momsy and Popsicle,” and to my brother Gary, thank you so much for your constant support, encouragement, direction and love. I appreciate your words of wisdom and advice that always seem to be just what I need to hear. To each of my fellow graduate assistants, thank you for “dancing through life” with me. Thank you for becoming not only co-workers, but also some of my best friends. To my thesis committee – Dr. William Mullen, Dr. Faith Mullen, and Dr. Lynnda S.

This finished thesis is, without a doubt, the “proudliest sight” I’ve ever seen, and I thank you for your time, effort and input in making this finished product a success. Finally, to Mrs. Kim, and all of my fellow “Touch of Swing”-ers, who inspired my love of the Wicked production, and thus, this study.

  • ANTA Theater and the Proposed Designation of the Related Landmark Site (Item No
    Landmarks Preservation Commission August 6, 1985; Designation List 182 l.P-1309 ANTA THFATER (originally Guild Theater, noN Virginia Theater), 243-259 West 52nd Street, Manhattan. Built 1924-25; architects, Crane & Franzheim. Landmark Site: Borough of Manhattan Tax Map Block 1024, Lot 7. On June 14 and 15, 1982, the Landmarks Preservation Commission held a public hearing on the proposed designation as a Landmark of the ANTA Theater and the proposed designation of the related Landmark Site (Item No. 5). The hearing was continued to October 19, 1982. Both hearings had been duly advertised in accordance with the provisions of law. Eighty-three witnesses spoke in favor of designation. Two witnesses spoke in opposition to designation. The owner, with his representatives, appeared at the hearing, and indicated that he had not formulated an opinion regarding designation. The Commission has received many letters and other expressions of support in favor of this designation. DESCRIPTION AND ANALYSIS The ANTA Theater survives today as one of the historic theaters that symbolize American theater for both New York and the nation. Built in the 1924-25, the ANTA was constructed for the Theater Guild as a subscription playhouse, named the Guild Theater. The fourrling Guild members, including actors, playwrights, designers, attorneys and bankers, formed the Theater Guild to present high quality plays which they believed would be artistically superior to the current offerings of the commercial Broadway houses. More than just an auditorium, however, the Guild Theater was designed to be a theater resource center, with classrooms, studios, and a library. The theater also included the rrost up-to-date staging technology.
