It encompasses both the post-war theatre archives held by the British Library, and also their post-1968 scripts collection. In addition, many oral history interviews have been carried out with visitors and theatre practitioners. The Project began at the University of Sheffield and later transferred to De Montfort University. The archive at Sheffield contains 170 CD-ROMs of interviews with theatre workers and audience members, including Glenda Jackson, Brian Rix, Susan Engel and Michael Frayn. There is also a collection of copies of correspondence between Gyorgy Lengyel and Michel and Suria Saint Denis, and between Gyorgy Lengyel and Sir John Gielgud, dating from 1958 to 1999.

First of all, Michael, I would like to ask you if you are in agreement for this interview to be used for the British Library Theatre Project and for future generations to learn about Variety Theatre. MG: Absolutely. Very happy. SB: Well, first of all, I would like to ask you….Where were you born and brought up? MG: I was born in London in 1943. I was brought up in London. We lived for a short time in Bournemouth at the end of the war, but mostly in London. SB: Oh right.

MG: From a very, very early age I can remember events that I couldn’t place the date of but clearly when I was four, five or six I can remember Richard Tauber, the great tenor, coming to tea with Uncle Bernie and Auntie Carol, as I called them and falling through the deck chair in the garden of the house.

Descriptive Summary Creator: Various Title: Brooklyn Theater Playbills and Programs Collection Date Span: 1875-1972 Abstract: The Brooklyn Theater Playbills and Programs Collection consists of 800 playbills and programs for motion pictures, musical concerts, high school commencement exercises, lectures, photoplays, vaudeville, and burlesque, as well as the more traditional offerings such as plays and operas, all from Brooklyn theaters. Quantity: 2.25 linear feet Location: Brooklyn Collection Map Room, cabinet 11 Repository: Brooklyn Public Library – Brooklyn Collection Reference Code: BC0071 Scope and Content Note The 800 items in the Brooklyn Theater Playbills and Programs Collection, which occupies 2.25 cubic feet, easily refute the stereotypes of Brooklyn as provincial and insular. From the late 1880s until the 1940s, the period covered by the bulk of these materials, the performing arts thrived in Brooklyn and were available to residents right at their doorsteps. At one point, there were over 200 theaters in Brooklyn. Frequented by the rich, the middle class and the working poor, they enjoyed mass popularity. With materials from 115 different theaters, the collection spans almost a century, from 1875 to 1972. The highest concentration is in the years 1890 to 1909, with approximately 450 items.

Servanne Woodward Increasing Motivation and Engagement in Advanced Literature Courses: Visions of Home: Johann Wolfgang Goethe’s Novel Die Wahlverwandtschaften (1809; Elective Affinities) Karin A. Wurst [email protected] DOI: 10.5206/mfdsecfw.v6i1.14187 Increasing Motivation and Engagement in Advanced Literature Courses: Visions of Home: Johann Wolfgang Goethe’s Novel Die Wahlverwandtschaften (1809; Elective Affinities)1 This article is an expanded version of my contribution for the 2021 ASECS roundtable “Pedagogy in Practice.” The panel discussed concerns of eighteenth-century studies in Foreign Language Departments and touched on a range of perennial issues facing the field. Conversations addressed the influence of newer methods, such as Backwards Design2 and (mandated) Learning Goals/Outcomes on the structure of courses. Other questions such as the future of the survey course were briefly addressed, as were practical questions such as: who is our audience in the current moment? Is it still possible to teach advanced courses in the target language? Larger philosophical issues, such as the position of eighteenth-century studies courses in the curriculum, given the preponderance of the modern and contemporary, remained an unspoken concern. I would like to sketch my position briefly on a few of these questions, then offer a short introduction to the thematic course content and on the novel under discussion, Goethe’s Wahlverwandtschaften. After this contextualization, I will offer an overview over a range of practical teaching strategies. More detailed tasks are shown in the figures in the appendix.

  • Spotlights on Women Composers in Early Broadway History -Series
    Cissie Loftus and Series Introduction Sarah Whitfield - author’s pre press copy Written for Maestra Music - [email protected] Spotlights on Women Composers in Early Broadway History - Series Introduction As Shoshana Greenberg has shown in her amazing timeline of women composers in ​ ​ ​ ​ musical theatre, created for Maestra: there are so many more women than we think there were in the history of musical theatre who wrote music. That we all largely assumed, myself included, that there weren’t many women composers is revealing. This may partly be a result of all the glossy coffee table books we read about the musicals, and the TV documentaries we may have seen, that brush over the complex history of this period. Many of those kinds of histories of the musical leave out the work of women composers, as well as the contributions of others with minoritised identities. Very few people have heard of the work of African American playwright and performer, Pauline Elizabeth ​ Hopkins, who, aged only 21, wrote Slaves’ Escape, or the Underground Railroad for her ​ ​ ​ musical troupe to perform in 1880. The names the timeline uncovers, names like Nora Bayes, Clare Kummer or Cissie Loftus mean very little to most of us. I’d certainly never heard of them before, and as a musical theatre historian, something had gone very wrong! So I began getting involved with some of the efforts to recover their work with the Clare Kummer Project group, but more on that later. The missing names that Maestra timeline throws up are a serious problem for musical theatre as we understand it now.
