  • Malpaso Dance Company Is Filled with Information and Ideas That Support the Performance and the Study Unit You Will Create with Your Teaching Artist
    The Joyce Dance Education Program Resource and Reference Guide Photo by Laura Diffenderfer The Joyce’s School & Family Programs are supported, in part, by public funds from the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs, in partnership with the City Council; and made possible by the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of Governor Andrew Cuomo and the New York State Legislature. Special support has been provided by Con Edison, The Walt Disney Company, A.L. and Jennie L. Luria Foundation, and May and Samuel Rudin Family Foundation, Inc. December 10, 2018 Dear Teachers, The resource and reference material in this guide for Malpaso Dance Company is filled with information and ideas that support the performance and the study unit you will create with your teaching artist. For this performance, Malpaso will present Ohad Naharin’s Tabla Rasa in its entirety. Tabula Rasa made its world premiere on the Pittsburgh Ballet Theatre on February 6, 1986. Thirty-two years after that first performance, on May 4, 2018, this seminal work premiered on Malpaso Dance Company in Cuba. Check out the link here for the mini-documentary on Ohad Naharin’s travels to Havana to work with Malpaso. This link can also be found in the Resources section of this study guide. A new work by company member Beatriz Garcia Diaz will also be on the program, set to music by the Italian composer Ezio Bosso. The title of this work is the Spanish word Ser, which translates to “being” in English. I love this quote by Kathleen Smith from NOW Magazine Toronto: "As the theatre begins to vibrate with accumulated energy, you get the feeling that they could dance just about any genre with jaw-dropping style.

Contact: [email protected] Somewhere in the Night (Fox Home Entertainment, 9.6.2005) Unlike the other two recent entries in Fox’s film noir series, The House on 92nd Street and Whirlpool, Somewhere in the Night is unequivocally the real thing. With Norbert Brodine’s atmospheric lighting, rain-slicked streets (though set in Los Angeles), a swanky nightclub, a sultry torch singer, a villain with a foreign accent, a muscle-bound lug, and moral ambiguity to burn, Somewhere in the Night is a terrific example of the genre. George Taylor (John Hodiak) wakes up in a military field hospital in the Pacific with no memory of who he is. Returning to Los Angeles, Taylor, who instinctively knows this is not his real name, finds an old letter from his friend Larry Cravat and tries to track down Cravat to find out who he really his. With the help of singer Christy Smith (Nancy Guild), nightclub owner Mel Phillips (Richard Conte), and cop Lt. Donald Kendall (Lloyd Nolan), Taylor learns that Cravat and another man were involved in stealing $2 million in loot shipped to the United States by a Nazi officer.

Comprehensive calendar ISSUE 30 Table of Contents Cover Story — Finally here? Despite the COVID-19 pandemic, work on the much ballyhooed Mayberry Man movie has continued, working around delays, postponements, and schedule changes. Now, the movie is just a few months away from release to its supporters, and hopefully, a public debut not too long afterward. Page 8 Andy finds himself He certainly wasn’t the first student to attend the University of North Carolina, nor the last, but Andy Griffith found an outlet for his creative talents at the venerable state institution, finding himself, and his career path, at the school. Page 4 Guest stars galore Being a guest star on “The Andy Griffith Show” could be a launching pad for young actors, and even already established stars sometimes wanted the chance to work with the cast and crew there. But it was Jean Hagen, driving a fast car and doing some smooth talking, who was the first established star to grace the set. Page 6 What To Do, What To Do… The pandemic put a halt to many shows and events over the course of 2020, but there might very well be a few concerts, shows, and events stirring in Mount Airy — the real-life Mayberry — this spring and summer.

  • Abortion As Metaphor
    ABORTION AS METAPHOR John J. Conley, S.J. THE PURPOSE OF THIS PAPER is to analyze the symbolic function of abortion in two disparate works of art: Alfred Hitchcock’s film Lifeboat (1944) and Terrence McNally’s play Master Class (1994). At first glance, these two works might appear unlikely candidates for an exploration of the aesthetics of abortion. Neither work treats abortion as a primary theme. Neither elaborates a case for or against abortion. Indeed, neither even uses the word “abortion.” Nonetheless, in each work, abortion functions as a metaphor for a series of homicidal acts, both social and personal. LIFEBOAT Based upon a story by John Steinbeck,i Lifeboatii depicts the struggle for survival by nine people stranded on the Atlantic. Set in World War II, the film opens in the immediate aftermath of a U-boat attack upon an Allied freighter. In the cramped single set of a lifeboat, the survivors battle nature, their conflicting temperaments, and, finally, the brutal enigma of the Nazi creed. In the opening scene the journalist Constance Porter (Tallulah Bankhead) sits perfectly coiffed in the lifeboat as she films the wreckage of the attack. The lifeboat gradually fills with other survivors: John Kovac (John Hodiak), a Communist engineer; Stanley Garrett (Hume Cronyn), a radio operator; Alice MacKenzie (Mary Anderson), a nurse; Charles “Ritt” Rittenhouse (Henry Hull), a millionaire businessman; Gus Smith (William Bendix), a merchant marine; “Joe” Spencer (Canada Lee), an African-American steward; and Mrs. Higgins, a shock victim from the obliteration bombings of Bristol who brings her dead baby aboard.
