  • TOOTSIE Screenplay by Larry Gelbart
    TOOTSIE Screenplay by Larry Gelbart March 8 1982 MACRO SHOT. LIKE AN ABSTRACT PAINTING Only one area in focus. It is an actor’s character box. We SLOWLY PAN to see: a monocle, different pairs of eyeglasses, rubber appliances, various makeups, a collection of dental applications, an assortment of brushes. A hand comes into frame and removes a small bottle. WE FOLLOW to see it is spirit gum. The other hand enters frame and uncaps the bottle. FOLLOW one hand as it applies the spirit gum to a cheek. We see only a portion of the cheek. Now the hands apply spirit gum to a rubber scar. Again we FOLLOW the hands as they place the scar upon the actor’s cheek. The ritual continues as we watch a moustache being applied. The hands then search out the dental appliances and pick one. We study the movement as the appliance is inserted into the actor’s mouth. Throughout the above we HEAR someone mumbling, but we cannot make out the words. Suddenly we HEAR: A VOICE Next! A BLACK SCREEN: OR SO IT SEEMS. Really a darkened theatre. We’re looking out toward the auditorium. VOICE (continuing) Michael...Dorsey, is it? PULL BACK to hold MICHAEL in fg., looking out toward the darkened auditorium. He is an actor, 40 years old. He holds a script. MICHAEL That’s right. CAMERA CIRCLES to reveal Michael’s face. The scar is present, as is the moustache. He also has perfect teeth. VOICE Top of twenty-three. MICHAEL (with feeling) “Do you know what it was like waking up in Paris that morning? Seeing the empty pillow where...wait a minute, cover your breasts! Kevin is downstairs! My God -- what are you?

Speaking of love, if it’s Broadway you love then next up in the AT&T Performing Arts Center’s Broadway Series is the hilarious The Play That Goes Wrong; followed by Beautiful – The Carole King Musical (back by popular demand); direct from London is Bat Out of Hell; then the scrumdiddlyumptious Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.

  • Low Male Voice Repertoire in Contemporary Musical Theatre: a Studio and Performance Guide of Selected Songs 1996-2020
    LOW MALE VOICE REPERTOIRE IN CONTEMPORARY MUSICAL THEATRE: A STUDIO AND PERFORMANCE GUIDE OF SELECTED SONGS 1996-2020 by Jeremy C. Gussin Submitted to the faculty of the Jacobs School of Music in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree, Doctor of Music Indiana University December 2020 Accepted by the faculty of the Indiana University Jacobs School of Music, in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Music Doctoral Committee __________________________________________ Ray Fellman, Research Director __________________________________________ Brian Gill, Chair __________________________________________ Jane Dutton __________________________________________ Peter Volpe December 10, 2020 ii Copyright © 2020 Jeremy Gussin iii Preface This project is intended to be a resource document for bass voices and teachers of low male voices at all levels. For the purposes of this document, I will make use of the established term low male voice (LMV) while acknowledging that there is a push for the removal of gender from voice classification in the industry out of respect for our trans, non-binary and gender fluid populations. In addition to analysis and summation of musical concepts and content found within each selection, each repertoire selection will include discussions of style, vocal technique, vocalism, and character in an effort to establish routes towards authenticity in the field of musical theatre over the last twenty five years. The explosion of online streaming and online sheet music resources over the last decade enable analysis involving original cast recordings, specific noteworthy performances, and discussions on transposition as it relates to the honoring of character and capability of an individual singer. My experiences with challenges as a young low voice (waiting for upper notes to develop, struggling with resonance strategies above a D♭4) with significant musicianship prowess left me searching for a musically challenging outlet outside of the Bel Canto aesthetic.
