    Physical, Vocal and Imaginative Warm-Up

    Mary Hartman Bard on the Beach Shakespeare Festival September 2015 SWwSP Conference Physical, Vocal and Imaginative Warm-Up Several people asked if I could include my warm-up in my handouts. As I imagined this, I thought the best thing I could do, at least on paper, was to simply write down what I say. I you haven’t participated in one of my workshops in which I’ve used the warm-up, it probably won’t make any sense. And just a reminder: I actually do everything with the students, usually while I’m giving the instruction, in an encouraging spirit of camaraderie. We start by standing in a circle. Please forgive the grammar; I’ve written this the way I speak. Oh, and please note: while some of you did ask for the language I use, I encourage you to identify the spirit of the language (encouraging? Playful? Non-judgmental?) and adapt the language to the way you would speak with those same qualities that you’ve identified as constructive. • Pick up a foot, and give it a little shake, to get the blood going in your foot, and to get the thought going in your foot. • Put that one down and give the other a little shake. And I did say, “thought”. • Now just continue warming up your feet in whatever way feels good for you while I talk. • It’s not actually that far-fetched that your feet can think. What do you have running through your entire body? Nerves. And what travels on those nerves? Little electrical impulses travelling to and from your brain, also known as thoughts.

THE MERRY WIVES OF WINDSOR JOINS THE 27TH SEASON OF BARD ON THE BEACH IN FULL: Bard on the Beach Shakespeare Festival continues its 27th season with The Merry Wives of Windsor. Back after its award-winning 2012 run at Bard, this is a big, bold, rollicking romp full of high-spirited fun.

In an effort to change the subject, Evans suggests that Shallow’s nephew, Slender (Ben Elliott), be matched with Anne Page (Hailey Gillis). At closing time, Falstaff confides in Bardolph (Victor Dolhai) and the Host (Anton Lipovetsky) that he’s broke and plans to seduce and swindle Mistress Ford (Amber Lewis) and Mistress Page (Katey Wright).

    Crowdfunding and Independent Screen Content Production in Australia A direct economic relationship between producer and audience Rebecca Laycock B.A.Com. and BMedia (Hons) Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts (Research) School of Media, Entertainment and Creative Arts Creative Industries Queensland University of Technology 2015 Keywords Crowdfunding, crowdsourcing, digital distribution, film finance, government funding, independent film, screen content, Screen Australia 2 Abstract Crowdfunding is a new form of film finance that emerged in Australia in 2010 and is being used by independent screen content producers to raise finance for short film, documentary, television program, short animation and even feature-length production. This trend is seeing Australian independent content producers bypass traditional sources of finance by working with a model for finance that is outside, or perhaps alongside, traditional forms of film financing in Australia. In some cases, filmmakers are no longer solely waiting for government funding to green-light a project, they are initiating funds prior, during and after production to guarantee their film is produced. Independent screen content producers are also establishing a direct economic relationship between producer and audience and in so doing are simultaneously establishing a niche audience for their content. Crowdfunding is to an extent becoming a necessity, especially within a decreased national funding arts environment. However, to date there has been limited in-depth academic analysis of crowdfunding as a source of production finance for independent Australian screen content production, particularly in terms of government action, industry trends, and what areas of the broader screen industry are receiving crowdfunding.

    NEWS RELEASE – VANCOUVER, BC, CANADA Bard’s Record-Breaking Season Extended With Added Performances Contact: Cynnamon Schreinert Tel: 604-802-2733 Email: [email protected] Bard on the Beach Extends Its Record-Breaking 29th Season With Added Shows July 30, 2018, Vancouver, BC: Bard on the Beach announced today that as a result of record-breaking demand for its ‘60s-inspired romantic comedy As You Like It, the Festival’s 29th season will be extended by a week to allow for added performances. The closing night for the Beatles-song-filled musical will now be on Friday, September 28, with four added performances in the extension week. Says Artistic Director Christopher Gaze, “This season has been an unprecedented hit. We’re breaking all our attendance records, and all four of our plays have resonated with critics and patrons. But As You Like It is a unique phenomenon. Its audiences are cheering with enthusiasm and excitement and it’s become a huge favourite with people of all ages, and from dedicated Shakespeare fans to those who don’t know Shakespeare at all! Performances are close to sold out through to September, and we want as many people as possible to experience the delights of this remarkable production. And we know a number of our patrons are seeing the show more than once! So we’ve made the decision to add shows, and extend our season by an extra week in Vanier Park – a first for the Festival.” Additional performances of As You Like It are scheduled for Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday evenings, Sept 25-28, at 7:30pm.

Aural Auteur: Sound in the Films of Rolf de Heer. 2 Aural Auteur: Sound in the Films of Rolf de Heer. ABSTRACT. Aural Auteur: Sound in the Films of Rolf de Heer. An interpretative methodology for understanding meaning in cinema since the 1950s, auteur analysis is an approach to film studies in which an individual, usually the director, is studied as the author of her or his films. The principal argument of this thesis is that proponents of auteurism have privileged examination of the visual components in a film-maker’s body of work, neglecting the potentially significant role played by sound. The thesis seeks to address this problematic imbalance by interrogating the creative use of sound in the films written and directed by Rolf de Heer, asking the question, “Does his use of sound make Rolf de Heer an aural auteur?” In so far as the term ‘aural’ encompasses everything in the film that is heard by the audience, the analysis seeks to discover if de Heer has, as Peter Wollen suggests of the auteur and her or his directing of the visual components (1968, 1972 and 1998), unconsciously left a detectable aural signature on his films.

    Beatles-Inspired 'As You Like It' at Bard on the Beach Summer Fest In

    A production of “As You Like It,” starring Lindsey Angell and Nadeem Phillip, will play this summer’s Bard on the Beach fest in Vancouver. (submitted photo/David Cooper) Beatles-inspired ‘As You Like It’ at Bard on the Beach summer fest in Vancouver Tickets now on sale for four shows staged at Vanier Park from June to September TOM ZILLICH / Apr. 5, 2018 11:20 a.m. / ENTERTAINMENT / LOCAL ENTERTAINMENT Tickets went on sale today (Friday) for the 29th season of Vancouver’s Bard on the Beach Shakespeare Festival. Four plays, along with several special events, will be staged at Vanier Park from June 6 to Sept. 22. This year’s productions are main-stage showings of Macbeth and As You Like It, along with smaller-stage tellings of Timon of Athens and Lysistrata. The festival’s version of As You Like It is set in 1960s Vancouver, “and free spirits are escaping from Vancouver to get ‘back to the land,’” according to a description of the play on the festival website. “This joyful tribute to love, laughter and music features 20 classic Beatles songs, from ‘I Want to Hold Your Hand’ to ‘All You Need is Love,’ performed by the cast.” Timon of Athens is billed as “a provocative study of greed and false friends, directed by Meg Roe,” while Lysistrata’s script focuses on the first-ever women’s strike, in the hands of director Lois Anderson. Related special events this season include Bard-B-Q & Fireworks, Family Nights, Talkback Tuesdays, Wine Wednesdays and the Exploring Shakespeare Talks (one for each of the four plays).

    Editorial the Play's the Thing Wherein We'll Catch the Conscience of The

    Editorial The Play’s the Thing Wherein We’ll Catch the Conscience of the Times by Kevin A. Quarmby. Published in 2018 Issue 1. TWENTY-FIRST-CENTURY REVIEWERS OF EARLY MODERN DRAMATIC PERFORMANCES, WHO APPRECIATE the vagaries of professional theatrical production, might feel justified in expressing delighted surprise at the topical politicized resonances they encounter on their nations’ stages. Surprise because, as anyone involved in the creative industries knows, the “opening night” of any performance is the culmination of months and months, in some cases years, of planning. Theatrical reviewing thus becomes an exercise in criticizing or praising an end product, not an entire process. A performance is both a birth and, inevitably, a slow though glorious death. We are invited to attend the culmination of this creative process. For political and social issues to dominate theatrical practice, creatives must be prescient in their undertakings, must tap into a collective zeitgeist without appearing too heavily to moralize or polemicize. With national division and polarization continuing to threaten our security and that of future generations, such politicization is inevitable, if not always completely successful. Often, however, we seem ignorant of the seer-like quality demanded by so many production houses. Why? Because theatres present us with fully-formed dramatic entities that allow us to ignore a play’s original amorphous literary state, its development in the minds of a creative few (producers, directors, designers), and its eventual realization by a group of actors. “The play’s the thing,” as Hamlet advises us, though a thing mature, vibrant, alive, and, most strange of all, tantalizingly ephemeral.
