  • 'Randy Newman's Faust,'
    July 1, 2014 Festival of New Musicals Announces Its Roster By Eric Piepenburg The Tony Award-winning playwright David Henry Hwang, the composer Adam Gwon and the composing duo Michael Kooman and Christopher Dimond are among the names represented in this year’s Festival of New Musicals, produced by the National Alliance for Musical Theater, a national nonprofit organization. The 26th annual festival will be held Oct. 23-24 at New World Stages, and will feature readings of eight musicals, whittled down from over 230 submissions. The festival can offer significant exposure; among those who typically attend are producers and regional-theater programmers, and last year the performers included the Tony winner Sutton Foster and the “Rocky” star Andy Karl. Among the selections are “Great Wall,” a family drama with music and lyrics by Kevin So and a book by Kevin Merritt, with Mr. Hwang as a creative consultant; “The Noteworthy Life of Howard Barnes,” a satirical comedy with music by Mr. Kooman and book and lyrics by Mr. Dimond, winners in 2013 of the Fred Ebb Award for aspiring musical theater songwriters; “Stu for Silverton,” about Stu Rasmussen, the transgender mayor of Silverton, Ore., with music and lyrics by the singer-songwriter Breedlove and a book by Peter Duchan (“Dogfight”); and “String,” a romantic comedy with music and lyrics by Mr. Gwon (“Ordinary Days”) and book by Sarah Hammond. All of the shows arrive at the festival already having been seen, either in development or as workshops, in theaters in New York and across the country. “Stu for Silverton” had its premiere in 2013 at Intiman Theater of Seattle, where it had been developed.

Bradford has been showing movies since the twilight of the 19th century. More than 100 years later the city’s association with cinema continues to evolve, and Bradford International Film Festival remains at the very heart of it. The Festival’s reputation is growing. Bradford has become a byword for exciting, adventurous programming – a showcase for the new, the ground-breaking, the unusual and the obscure. In 2008 our line-up is once again constructed from a disparate mix of fresh material and tributes in the form of retrospectives. Thus Bradford straddles the cinema of the past and the cinema of the present while, always, looking forward to the future. This year special seasons are devoted to Michael Palin, Kenneth Branagh, Julien Temple, Leslie Norman and Christian Petzold. We will also be joined by Barry Norman, Patrick Doyle and Mike Figgis. Together they represent an incredible, unique cast list. Balanced with the films themselves – shorts and features – the offer is some- what overwhelming.

Jones travels from a medievalist conference in Kalamazoo, Michigan, to Chicago, where he will be participating in a “Meet the Maker” screening of “Monty Python and the Holy Grail” (he co-directed the film) at Chicago’s Lakeshore Theater [17] on Saturday, May 9th, 2009. Terrence Graham Parry “Terry” Jones was born in Colwyn Bay on the north coast of Wales in England. He graduated from St Edmund Hall, a constituent college of Oxford University, where he met future writing partner Michael Palin. He broke into British television in 1967 along with Palin in the show “Twice a Fortnight,’ worked with Eric Idle in “Do Not Adjust Your Set,” and wrote alongside Graham Chapman John Cleese, Idle and Palin (all soon-to-be Pythoners) on “The Frost Report.” ’She’s a Witch!’ Terry Jones and Connie Booth in ‘Monty Python and the Holy Grail’ Photo credit: Sony Pictures Home Entertainment In 1969, along with animator Terry Gilliam, Chapman, Cleese, Idle, Palin and Jones debuted “Monty Python’s Flying Circus” on the British Broadcast Company (BBC).
