March 13, 2014 Contact: Camille Cintrón, Manager, Public Relations 703.255.4096 or [email protected] The Barns at Wolf Trap Welcomes Simon Townshend, Al Stewart, and The Second City All Shows at The Barns at Wolf Trap 1635 Trap Road, Vienna, VA 22182 Simon Townshend Wednesday, April 9, 2014 at 8 pm $24 Hailing from one of England’s most musically acclaimed families, Simon Townshend—younger brother of Pete—began his career at age nine when he recorded the backing vocals for The Who’s rock opera Tommy. He has toured with The Who as a guitarist and vocalist since 1996, playing sold out shows worldwide, including the 2010 Super Bowl and 2012 London Olympics. Townshend’s latest solo album, Looking Out Looking In, was described by Guitar Magazine as “a cut above…melodic, edgy, and creative.” He will be releasing a new album, DENIAL, on April 1, 2014, on his own STIR Music label. Video: Simon Townshend – “Bed of Roses” (Looking out, Looking in) Al Stewart Thursday, April 10, 2014 at 8 pm $25–$28 British folk revival artist Al Stewart is beloved for notable rock hits like “Time Passages” and “Year of the Cat.” He has released 25 records since he began playing guitar in his teens. In 1976 Stewart put forth his breakthrough album Year of the Cat, which featured two Top 20 hits: the album’s title song and “On the Border.” Sparks of Ancient Light, Stewart’s 2008 album, was praised by AllMusic.com for showcasing “what have always been Stewart’s principal strengths—pleasant haunting melodies, mellifluous vocals, accomplished folk guitar work, and literate, historical-minded lyrics.” Video: Al Stewart – “Time Passages” The Second City Happily Ever Laughter Friday, April 18, 2014 at 8 pm Saturday, April 19, 2014 at 7:30 pm $25–$27 Chicago’s legendary improv troupe The Second City serves up an uproarious revue of sketches and songs, playing off everything from celebrities to the morning headlines in a show that is “guaranteed to make you laugh”(Catey Sullivan, Chicago Theater Beat). The Second City has been leaving audiences in stitches for more than 50 years and today has 11 full-time touring ensembles and resident theatres in Chicago and Toronto. Happily Ever Laughter presents an evening of smart, cutting-edge comedy that draws on classic material from The Second City archives as well as current events. Many of the troupe’s alums (including Bill Murray, Tina Fey, Chris Farley, and Jason Sudeikis) have gone on to star in Saturday Night Live and in popular films. Tickets can be purchased by calling 1.877.WOLFTRAP or online at wolftrap.org. For more information, call The Barns at Wolf Trap at 703.938.2404 or our general information line at 703.255.1900.

Research and Analysis Essay
Research and Analysis Essay OBJECTIVES The purpose of this essay is for you to: a) broaden your knowledge of 1970s American cinema and society and b) hone skills of writing and critical analysis. GUIDELINES You will choose one of the general topics provided below and carve out of it your own specific analysis. Try to be specific and focused. Construct a thesis in your introduction that outlines what you will argue and focus on; then, continually reinforce, point back to, and illustrate this thesis in the body; and wrap up your paper and thesis in the conclusion. Regardless of which topic you choose, this essay requires you to combine the following: A) research, whereby you will locate and cite scholarly writings that strengthen your study; and B) analysis, in which you will make sense of and think critically about the subject matter. Be sure, as well – again, regardless of topic – to examine in some way the relationship between American cinema and society in the 1970s. TOPICS Choose one of these below. Be careful not to tackle the entire topic, which would not be advisable in such a short paper. Instead find a topic below that interests you and go about finding a particular area within it that will permit you to accomplish the objectives and follow the guidelines. 1. New genres — Pick one of the new genres that came out of the 1970s. Consider why this genre and movie (could be as many as two movies) emerge during the 1970s. How does it generically address issues particularly relevant to 1970s America? And, in turn, how does the film generically determine its aesthetics, themes, and/or ideology? How is the film representative of that genre and of the decade? The films below are mere suggestions; you may find others.

Thank you both for not giving up on me even when things were moving very slow. I am especially thankful for your support in my work in the combination of popular music/performance studies. A big thank you goes to Siren Leirvåg for guidance in the literature of theatre studies. Everybody at the Institute of Music at UiO for helping me when I came back after my student hiatus in 2007. I cannot over-exaggerate my gratitude towards Rob Lee, webmaster at www.thewho.com for helping me with finding important information on that site and his attempts at getting me an interview with one of the boys. The work being done on that site is fantastic. Also, a big thank you to my fellow Who fans. Discussing Who with you makes liking the band more fun.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Media Contact: Lauren Jahoda v.845.583.2193 Photos & Interviews may be available upon request [email protected] ROGER DALTREY TO PERFORM THE WHO’S TOMMY WITH MEMBERS OF THE WHO BAND & THE HUDSON VALLEY PHILHARMONIC AT BETHEL WOODS ON FRIDAY, JUNE 8 Tickets On-Sale February 2 at 10am BETHEL, NY (January 29, 2018) – Legendary Who frontman and Woodstock ’69 alum Roger Daltrey will be performing the band’s most iconic masterpiece this summer, the groundbreaking TOMMY, on a special 10 city solo tour featuring full orchestral backing. The tour will open in Bethel, NY on Friday, June 8th at Bethel Woods Center for the Arts, where Daltrey and his band will be joined on stage by the acclaimed Hudson Valley Philharmonic, showcasing the beloved classics from the 1969 rock opera, including “Pinball Wizard,” “See Me, Feel Me” and more. Tickets go on-sale Friday, February 2 at 10 a.m. at www.BethelWoodsCenter.org, The Bethel Woods Box Office, www.Ticketmaster.com, Ticketmaster outlets, or by phone at 1.800.745.3000. Considered one of the seminal albums of the rock canon, last year The Who played all of TOMMY for the first time in 28 years at the Royal Albert Hall in London as part of a benefit concert for the Teenage Cancer Trust. Roger performed it in its entirety with his band during his 2011 solo tour. The opportunity to bring an orchestral dynamic to the raw emotion and cathartic impact of the songs that cemented Daltrey’s legacy as a vocal powerhouse adds a compelling dimension to the music’s timelessness.

'Tommy,' New Insights Into Pete Townshend
What about the boy? In 'Tommy,' new insights into Pete Townshend Chris Jones CHICAGO TRIBUNE cjon es5@chicagotribune.com JANUARY 22, 2015, 6:00 AM hen, in 1975, the movie director Ken Russell turned "Tommy," an album by The Who, into a film, W catapulting the Pinball Wizard to further glory, he made one particularly notable change: He switched the period of the rock opera from the years following World War I to the years following World War II. This necessitated changing the title of one of Pete Townshend's rock numbers ("1921" became "1951"), but the benefit was not just a more contemporary milieu (back in '75, at least) but a period that more closely charted Townshend's own life. That change was continued when "Tommy" became a Broadway musical in 1993, directed by Des McAnuff. (The stage version of "Tommy" has played the Chicago area many times over the years, including productions by the Circle Theatre and now-defunct White Horse Theatre, as well as a memorable stint for McAnuff's road show at the Auditorium Theatre in 1999.) The stage musical, adapted from what always has been a very loose plot, is set in the years after World War II, suggesting that the conflict ripped families and marriages apart. In the case of "Tommy," we see a husband and father shot down by the enemy. His wife thinks he is dead and takes another lover. When her husband returns, he violently confronts the lover, which is what sets his little boy, Tommy, off on his trajectory. Told that he saw, heard and felt nothing, he takes those instructions to heart.
