Blue Hill's 'Forum' fulfills longing for summertime laughs Thursday, July 17, 2008 - Bangor Daily News Summer, especially summer in Maine, is for laughter. In offering up "A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum," the New Surry Theatre not only recognizes but also honors this notion in its production that opened Friday and runs weekends through Aug. 16. The company’s production at the Blue Hill Town Hall Theater of the 1962 musical that earned Stephen Sondheim the first of many Tony Awards is a delicious way to spend a summer evening. The local talent serves up a show that’s a step above the usual community theater fare thanks to the tight direction of Bill Raiten and marvelous mugging of lead actor Michael Reichgott. "Forum" is loosely based on three comedies by the Roman playwright Plautus and tells the story of the Herculean efforts by the slave Pseudolus to earn his freedom from Hero, his young master. The only things standing in his way are courtesans, soldiers, long-lost children, a virgin and a fellow slave. Reichgott, who is a newcomer to Maine and the theater company, seems to channel Zero Mostel and Nathan Lane, who played the role on Broadway in 1962 and 1996, respectively. He hams it up colossally, always stepping up to but never crossing that thin line that divides hysterically funny from grossly crass. The actor is equally adept at the physical comedy, the double-entendres and belting the role requires. Reichgott wrings every drop of humor from the part and throwing himself into his character’s big numbers — "Comedy Tonight," "Free" and "Everybody Ought to Have a Maid." He is nearly matched by Christopher Candage as Hero and Jim Fisher as Hysterium, his fellow slave.

The Last Days of Buster Keaton John C. Tibbetts
Fall 1995 79 The Hole in the Doughnut: The Last Days of Buster Keaton John C. Tibbetts In the Fall of 1995 Eleanor Norris Keaton will come to Kansas to celebrate the 100th birthday of her late husband.1 Part of an extensive itinerary that also takes her to other centenary observances in New York, Muskegon, Michigan, and Los Angeles, the Kansas trip is particularly poignant. Keaton was born on October 4,1895, in the tiny farm community of Piqua, in southeast Kansas, while his parents were performing with a medicine show.2 Although he may have been a Kansan only through sheer accident of circumstances—the baby and his mother remained in Piqua only two weeks before rejoining the troupe on the road—he returned there many times as a child on tour with his parents.3 Later, the classic slapstick comedian paid tribute to his home state in many of the themes and situations of his best films, most notably in the cyclone sequence in Steamboat Bill, Jr. (1928). To my mind, even his trademark "deadly horizontal" hat (as James Agee described it) evokes the stark flatness of the Kansas prairies.4 While the Keaton phenomenon will be fully explored throughout the centenary year, Eleanor herself should not be forgotten. By all accounts, she was an important force in Buster's later years. "She has seen Buster Keaton through a long period of painful adjustment, relapse, and readjustment and a dozen partial comebacks," wrote Rudi Blesh, shortly before Buster's death on February 1,1966. "She has carried him, content and at times happy, across the threshold of his seventies.

Home » The Commentary 20 films on politics and the media 29 December 2009 | Email This Post | Print This Post BY JOSEPH PLANTA VANCOUVER – A few weeks ago, Sean Holman, the talented and prodigious editor of Public Eye Online was on the program to discuss the year that was and the year to come in provincial politics. We got to talking movies, when I’d asked him if he’d seen State of Play, the fine American film based on the British miniseries of the same name. He suggested two other films: The Candidate and Shattered Glass. This got me thinking about what films had the best depictions of politics, media, journalism and the writing process. I came up with a few, and limited myself to twenty which seemed a workable number. Twenty favourites, as it were. Of course the list is subjective, and is in no particular order. I suspect if I ever get to watching Dr. Strangelove, or The Front Page, or Bob Roberts, or Silver City, they might be added to the list, perhaps even bumping off something already here. There’s nothing on this list that was made for television, otherwise the House of Cards trilogy would be here, as well as the original British miniseries State of Play, The Thick of It, The West Wing, and of course, the Yes, Minister/Yes, Prime Minister tandem. Perhaps Mr. Holman or others would like to add to or debate my choices.

A FUNNY THING HAPPENED on the WAY to the FORUM Book by BURT SHEVELOVE and LARRY GELBART Music and Lyrics by STEPHEN SONDHEIM
Dural Musical Society presents A FUNNY THING HAPPENED ON THE WAY TO THE FORUM Book by BURT SHEVELOVE and LARRY GELBART Music and Lyrics by STEPHEN SONDHEIM Originally Produced on Broadway by Harold S. Prince Licensed exclusively by Music Theatre International (Australasia). All performance materials supplied by Hal Leonard Australia A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum is a delightfully funny musical. Inspired by the farces of the ancient Roman playwright Plautus (251–183 BC), this musical tells the story of a slave named Pseudolus and his attempts to win his freedom by helping his young master woo the girl next door. The plot displays many classic elements of farce, including puns, the slamming of doors, cases of mistaken identity (frequently involving characters disguising themselves as one another), and satirical comments on social class. The musical's original 1962 Broadway run won several Tony Awards, including Best Musical and Best Author (Musical). A Funny Thing… has enjoyed several Broadway and West End revivals and was made into a successful film starring the original lead of the musical, Zero Mostel. The 2012 Australian revival saw Geoffrey Rush following in the footsteps of musical theatre greats who have played the lead role of Pseudolus - Zero Mostel, Phil Silvers and Nathan Lane in the USA, and Frankie Howerd in the UK. In the case of Frankie Howerd, he followed up his role in “Forum” with a very similar character in the British TV series “Up Pompeii!” which went on to become a successful movie of the same name. This show doesn’t age – it is as popular now as it was when it first hit Broadway.

Theodore Bikel Trivia Quiz
THEODORE BIKEL TRIVIA QUIZ by Marjorie Gottlieb Wolfe Syosset, New York Theodore Bikel, actor, activist, singer, and writer, has passed away at the age of 91. In the Foreword to his book, “Theo - The Autobiography of Theodore Bikel,” he wrote, “Most people lead two distinct lives--a private life and a public one. Others lead multiple lives; I am one of those. Professionally I can count three or four separate existences, politically three or four more. Add the personal aspects and altogether they add up to a cat’s count of nine.” Bikel said of “Fiddler” in a 2008 interview, “It’s a charming show. It’s a nice show. But it is what my wife calls ‘SHTETL LITE.’” Grab a #2 pencil and let’s see how well you fare on this not-so-serious Theodore Bikel Trivia Quiz. 1. While performing the role of Tevye in “Fiddler on the Roof,” the following story took place: A new arrival to this country had never in his life seen a stage play.

Which Yiddishist celebrated Bikel’s 85th birthday, which was held at Carnegie Hall? A) Michael Wex B) Ruth R. Wisse C) Uriel Weinreich D) Leo Rosten E) Miriam Weinstein 3. “Iz nisht gut tsu zayn aleyn” means, It’s not good to be alone.

Anti-crime wave BY VICTOR G. MIMONI [email protected] A dozen teenagers were walked into the cells at the 111th Precinct in Bayside recently, but it wasn’t a crime wave – just an Open House for the Law Enforcement Explorers. The Explorers is a program for young persons ages 14-20, to provide community service for credit and educate them about law enforcement, according to Police Officer Kristen Loughran, one of the advisors at the precinct, located at 45-06 215th Street. According to the New York Police Department (NYPD,) the pro- gram focuses on six areas: career, service, leadership, social, fit- ness and outdoors. The Explorers program encourages young peo- ple to pursue a law enforcement career. There are currently close to 4,000 Explorer posts at the NYPD. THE COURIER/Photo by Victor G.

So Much for Tradition. Harvey Fierstein Stars in Fiddler on the Roof
THEATER REVIEW So Much For Tradition. Harvey Fierstein Stars in Fiddler On The Roof. By Erika Milvy | Feb 05, 2010 You might think that clamor about who should marry whom is coming from the San Francisco federal courthouse, where same sex marriage is currently on trial. You might think that the debate about traditional values and societal stability is coming from the attorneys arguing over Proposition 8. But it's not. It's coming from the Golden Gate Theater where Tevye is weighing these selfsame issues in the new production of Fiddler on the Roof. You might think the voices raised in hatred and intimidation against the Jewish people are those of the actors playing the Cossacks who rampage the shtetl of Anatevka in the pogrom at the end of Act I. But no again. Those are members of the congregation of The Westboro Baptist Church of Kansas standing in front of the Jewish Community Center, the Jewish Museum and even Brandeis Hillel Elementary School, wielding placards that say "God Hates Jews." (Their tour of San Francisco had included Thursday's performance of Fiddler on the Roof but apparently, they were a no show.) Their schedule also includes the Federal courthouse, Jewish News Weekly and a student production of Rent. Lest anyone think we've come a long way from Anatevka, Pastor Fred Phelps and his church are here to tell us otherwise. (See Laughing Squid's coverage of San Francisco's clever counter protest.) But this symmetry is more trenchant than the show itself. I wish I could tell you that the new national tour of Fiddler on the Roof, which opened Wednesday, January 27, gutpunches us anew with its wrenching depiction of lives at the crossroads of old ideals and new ideas.
