I examine how song and dance – sites of aesthetic difference within the musical – can warp time and enable marginalized and semi-marginalized fans to imagine different ways of being in the world. Musical numbers can complicate a linear, developmental plot by accelerating and decelerating time, foregrounding repetition and circularity, bringing the past to life and projecting into the future, and physicalizing dreams in a narratively open present. These excesses have the potential to contest naturalized constructions of historical, progressive time, as well as concordant constructions of gender, sexual, and racial identities. While the musical has historically been a rich source of identification for the stereotypical white gay male show queen, this project validates a broad and flexible range of non-normative readings.

CHAPTER 8 Bohemians Greenwich Village and The Masses Joanna Levin Ever since Rodolphe, Henri Murger's prototypical struggling writer, stood before the grave of Mimi, his lost love and partner in the romance of bohemia, crying, "Oh my youth, it is you that is being buried," la vie boheme has represented a fabled transitional period between youth and mature adulthood in many an individual life, memoir, and Bildungsroman (Seigel 45). Similarly, ever since its inception in the wake of the 1830 Rev­ olution in France, bohemianism - as a larger subcultural movement has flourished during periods of historical transition. It was in the tumultuous lead-up to the Civil War that la vie boheme first took root in the United States (in a basement beer hall beneath the sidewalks of Broadway and Bleecker and on the pages of the New York Saturday Press), but it was dur­ ing the 1910s, the decade known for ushering in a host of radical and mod­ ernist movements, that bohemia assumed its most famous American form in New York City's Greenwich Village.

Nevertheless, when she was offered the opportunity to get a musical education, she accepted with enthusiasm and dedication. As a child she studied piano and choir singing. Some years later her music teachers encouraged her to approach Lyrical Singing. Since then she’s been constantly improving and taking care of her vocal talent, that was also incentive for her personal growth. She deeply believes in the uniqueness and fulfillment of every artistic journey, beyond common sense and standard rules. She obtained her Lyrical Singing Diploma - mezzosoprano - at the Conservatory of Music “G.Nicolini” in Piacenza. She graduated in foreign languages from the University of Pavia and obtained one Deutsch Institute Diploma and two Cambridge Certificates (PET, FCE). She speaks English, French and German, in addition to her native Italian. At the beginning of her career she sang in important philharmonic choirs: Verdi Choir in Milan, Maghini Choir and RAI National Orchestra in Turin, having the opportunity to work with R.

  • North Shore Teacher Hit Outside High School GCHS Honors Its All-County
    Volume XXII No. 27 Hometown Newspaper for Glen Cove, Sea Cliff, Glen Head, Glenwood, Locust Valley and Brookville Week of 3/7/13 75C North Shore Teacher Hit Outside High School By Carol Griffin Christopher Whalley, a North Shore School Latin teacher, was struck and in- jured by a reckless driver on Glen Cove Avenue as he was crossing the road go- ing from the high school to the middle school on March 1 at about 10:30 a.m. Police believe that the teacher had the right of way and was in the crosswalk when he was struck by a Lexus. The driver, Cruz Correa, 28 years old from Glen Cove, was driving a 1991 Lexus when he hit the teacher. He also hit and seriously injured a couple that was com- ing toward him in the southbound lane in Volkswagen. Law enforcement officials said they believe the Correa’s ability to drive at the time was impaired. Correa was arrested and charged with reckless driving. Police said he will be arraigned after he recovers from his injuries. Speaking with Chief Michael Ric- cardo of Glenwood Fire Company, he said the call on “pedestrian struck” came into his department shortly after it oc- curred. He said Glenwood responded with an ambulance, he requested am- bulances from Sea Cliff a from Nassau County. He also radioed Roslyn Rescue Fire Department for their EMS Unit for assistance. The horrible accident started with the 1991 Lexus (inset- top left) hitting a teacher who was walking on Glen Cove Avenue. It then hit a Volkswagen (insert- top right).
