You've endured Ythe hype. You've sneered at friends gloating about their orchestra-level tickets for opening night. Yet the question remains: Will Rent live up to the enormous expecta- tions that have been raised? If it's exciting choreography, heart-pounding music and phenomenal singing you're hoping for, then the answer is most definitely yes. If it's a consistent, well-told story that's got you ready to speed-dial TicketMaster, then you might want to weigh the pros and cons. In fact, forget the cons for now. The truth is, despite its minor flaws in pacing and characterization, Rent is utterly brilliant enough in other ways to make for an exhilarating theatrical expe- rience. Almost exactly two years (that's 1,051,200 minutes in Rent-speak) since its world premiere in New York, the most talked-about musical in recent memory has made it to Texas. Based on La Boheme, Rent chron- icles the heartaches, joy, heartaches, challenges, heartaches (catching on?) and other significant mo- ments in the lives of an eclectic group of struggling young East Villagers.

Segal Department of Psychology, California State University, Fullerton, CA, USA The twin children who survived the Holocaust and the horrific medical experiments conducted by Nazi doctors are sometimes overlooked in the relevant literature. This topic and more were discussed as part of an annual conference hosted by students from Yeshiva University’s Medical Ethics Society in October 2012. A selective summary of this meeting is followed by summaries of recent twin studies concerning genetic influences on twinning, in vitro fertilization versus spontaneous twin pregnancies, gender identity disorder, and royal support for twin registries. Several human interest stories are also worth noting. They include identical twin school principals, twin loss at Sandy Hook Elementary School, timely twin documentaries, new twin and twin-like reunions, and the passing of two prominent twins. ............................................

    A New Queer Trinity: A Semiotic, Genre Theory, and Auto-Ethnographic Examination of Reeling: The Chicago LGBTQ+ International Film Festival DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Jessica L. Hey, MA, BA Graduate Program in Arts Administration, Education and Policy The Ohio State University 2017 Dissertation Committee: James H. Sanders III, Advisor Shari M. Savage Deborah L. Smith-Shank Copyright by Jessica L. Hey 2017 ABSTRACT This doctoral study concerns itself with the visual representations of The Chicago LGBTQ+ International Film Festival (a.k.a. Reeling) with specific attention paid to their marketing campaign materials, as exemplified by the annually created festival POSTER. It is my aim to situate these posters alongside the historical contexts of queer identity, socio- political advocacy, and LGBTQ+ cinema. This analysis will navigate the 36-year period of the festival organization’s existence, providing key, in-depth interrogations into the decades, images, and trends both visual and narrative. My unpacking and theoretical discussions of the festival’s visual culture has been informed by the practices of semiotics and film genre theory. These methods were employed to answer the primary research question: How have the POSTER advertisements, as visual signifiers for The Chicago LGBTQ+ International Film Festival, symbolized their organization’s mission, represented queer identities, and engaged with the politically

  • Dollywood: Presenting Regional Culture Through Themed Environments
    DOLLYWOOD: PRESENTING REGIONAL CULTURE THROUGH THEMED ENVIRONMENTS Graham Rutledge Hoppe A thesis submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Folklore in the department of American Studies in the College of Arts and Sciences. Chapel Hill 2015 Approved by: Marcie Cohen Ferris William R. Ferris Bernard L. Herman © 2015 Graham Rutledge Hoppe ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Graham Rutledge Hoppe: Dollywood: Presenting Regional Culture Through Themed Environments (Under the direction of Marcie Cohen Ferris) Dolly Parton’s “Tennessee Mountain Home” and her hardscrabble rural upbringing are essential to our idea of her as a celebrity. We think we know Dolly Parton because of what we think we know about those mountains, we also think we know those mountains because of what we think we know about Dolly Parton. Dollywood is an essential southern place, a simultaneously artificial and authentic piece of Americana carved out of the Smokey Mountains by the sheer force of Dolly Parton’s personality. After the nearby National Park, it is the largest draw for tourists in the region. The park allows visitors to experience themes from Parton’s life, and to experience her idealized vision of the Smoky Mountains. To create, and curate, these environments the park leans heavily on tropes of mountain life, incorporating a carefully crafted blend of stereotype, nostalgia, and anachronism to sell a uniquely personal conception of the mountains. iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to thank my committee for their support and guidance during the process of constructing this thesis.
