SAMMY Program FINAL:Program performances at the OLD GLOBE THEATRE OCTOBER 2009 Welcome UPCOMING Dear Friends, Leslie Bricusse and I first met T H E SAVA N N A H about eighteen months ago and DISPUTATION we began to look for a project Sept. 26 - Nov. 1, 2009 that we could do together at The The Old Globe Arena Stage Old Globe. After discussing at the James S. Copley several possibilities, he asked me Auditorium, to read his new musical about the San Diego Museum of Art life of Sammy Davis, Jr. I thought the work was both entertaining and important. Quite simply, the ❖❖❖ opportunity to produce this show with its great score and tell the DR. SEUSS’ story of this legendary American HOW THE GRINCH STOLE entertainer was an opportunity we couldn’t pass up. CHRISTMAS! Sammy is a very personal project for Leslie. His friendship with Sammy Nov. 21 - Dec. 27, 2009 began in 1961 and was both intensely personal and artistically prolific. Old Globe Theatre In fact, Leslie contributed more songs to Sammy’s canon of hits than any other individual songwriter. Many of these great songs, which ❖❖❖ brilliantly illuminate Sammy and the times in which he lived, are in this new score. WHISPER HOUSE Revealing Sammy is no small feat. There is so much more to Sammy Jan. 13 - Feb. 21, 2010 Davis, Jr. than his mythic stage persona. In addition to being one of the Old Globe Theatre greatest performers of his generation he was a very complicated man who struggled with issues of identity, race, relationships, money and fame. His journey wasn’t easy but it paved the way for many, many ❖❖❖ others. We're fortunate to have Obba Babatundé as our guide on this journey. LOST IN YONKERS Obba had a personal relationship with Sammy and this bond between Jan. 23 - Feb. 28, 2010 performers of different generations informs Obba's remarkable Sheryl and Harvey performance. Sammy was a triple threat performer and so is Obba. White Theatre It is a privilege to bring the magic of Sammy Davis, Jr. to those who knew and loved him, and particularly exciting to introduce this “once in ❖❖❖ a lifetime” performer to an entirely new generation of theatergoers. More than anything, as Sammy’s spirit fills the theater tonight, I hope BOEING-BOEING we make him proud. March 13 - April 18, 2010 Old Globe Theatre Louis G.

Reviews Keith Loria, on theatermania.com, called the show “a tender glimpse into the Hineses’ rise to fame and a touching tribute to a brother.” Benjamin Tomchik wrote in Broadway World, that the show “seems determined not only to love the audience, but to entertain them, and it succeeds at doing just that! While Tappin' Thru Life does have some flaws, it's hard to find anyone who isn't won over by Hines showmanship, humor, timing and above all else, talent.” In The Washington Post, Nelson Pressley wrote, “’Tappin’ is basically a breezy, personable concert. The show doesn’t flinch from hard-core nostalgia; the heart-on-his-sleeve Hines is too sentimental for that. It’s frankly schmaltzy, and it’s barely written — it zips through selected moments of Hines’s life, creating a mood more than telling a story. it’s a pleasure to be in the company of a shameless, ebullient vaudeville heart.” Maurice Hines Is .

    Not Your Mother’s Library Transcript Episode 11: Mamma Mia! and More Musicals (Brief intro music) Rachel: Hello, and welcome to Not Your Mother’s Library, a readers’ advisory podcast from the Oak Creek Public Library. I’m Rachel, and once again since Melody’s departure I am without a co-host. This is where you would stick a crying-face emoji. Luckily for everyone, though, today we have a brand new guest! This is most excellent, truly, because we are going to be talking about musicals, and I do not have any sort of expertise in that area. So, to balance the episode out with a more professional perspective, I would like to welcome to the podcast Oak Creek Library’s very own Technical Services Librarian! Would you like to introduce yourself? Joanne: Hello, everyone. I am a new guest! Hooray! (laughs) Rachel: Yeah! Joanne: So, I am the Technical Services Librarian here at the Oak Creek Library. My name is Joanne. I graduated from Carroll University with a degree in music, which was super helpful for libraries. Not so much. Rachel: (laughs) Joanne: And then went to UW-Milwaukee to get my masters in library science, and I’ve been working in public libraries ever since. I’ve always had a love of music since I've been in a child. My mom is actually a church organist, and so I think that’s where I get it from. Rachel: Wow, yeah. Joanne: I used to play piano—I did about 10 years and then quit. (laughs) So, I might be able to read some sheet music but probably not very well.

  • 07 – Spinning the Record
    VI. THE STEREO ERA In 1954, a timid and uncertain record industry took the plunge to begin investing heav- ily in stereophonic sound. They were not timid and uncertain because they didn’t know if their system would work – as we have seen, they had already been experimenting with and working the kinks out of stereo sound since 1932 – but because they still weren’t sure how to make a home entertainment system that could play a stereo record. Nevertheless, they all had their various equipment in place, and so that year they began tentatively to make recordings using the new medium. RCA started, gingerly, with “alternate” stereo tapes of monophonic recording sessions. Unfortunately, since they were still uncertain how the results would sound on home audio, they often didn’t mark and/or didn’t file the alternate stereo takes properly. As a result, the stereo versions of Charles Munch’s first stereo recordings – Berlioz’ “Roméo et Juliette” and “Symphonie Fanastique” – disappeared while others, such as Fritz Reiner’s first stereo re- cordings (Strauss’ “Also Sprach Zarathustra” and the Brahms Piano Concerto No. 1 with Ar- thur Rubinstein) disappeared for 20 years. Oddly enough, their prize possession, Toscanini, was not recorded in stereo until his very last NBC Symphony performance, at which he suf- fered a mental lapse while conducting. None of the performances captured on that date were even worth preserving, let alone issuing, and so posterity lost an opportunity to hear his last half-season with NBC in the excellent sound his artistry deserved. Columbia was even less willing to pursue stereo.

Abstract When Netflix launched in April 1998, Internet video was in its infancy. Eighteen years later, Netflix has developed into the first truly global Internet TV network. Many books have been written about the five broadcast networks – NBC, CBS, ABC, Fox, and the CW – and many about the major cable networks – HBO, CNN, MTV, Nickelodeon, just to name a few – and this is the fitting time to undertake a detailed analysis of how Netflix, as the preeminent Internet TV networks, has come to be. This book, then, combines historical, industrial, and textual analysis to investigate, contextualize, and historicize Netflix's development as an Internet TV network. The book is split into four chapters. The first explores the ways in which Netflix's development during its early years a DVD-by-mail company – 1998-2007, a period I am calling "Netflix as Rental Company" – lay the foundations for the company's future iterations and successes. During this period, Netflix adapted DVD distribution to the Internet, revolutionizing the way viewers receive, watch, and choose content, and built a brand reputation on consumer-centric innovation.
