  • Medea & Phaedra
    Medea & Phaedra: Tragedies of Passion, Betrayal, and Revenge Theater of War creator Bryan Doerries returns to BAM to lead discussion surrounding mental health through readings from Euripides’ Medea and Seneca’s Phaedra Medea & Phaedra: Tragedies of Passion, Betrayal, and Revenge Led by Bryan Doerries With Elizabeth Marvel, Amy Ryan, Donnetta Lavinia Grays, and Bill Camp Mon, Jun 20 at 7pm BAM Fisher (Fishman Space), 321 Ashland Pl Free with RSVP Brooklyn, NY/May 19, 2016—BAM Humanities presents Medea & Phaedra: Tragedies of Passion, Betrayal, and Revenge—an evening of performance and dialogue featuring dramatic readings of scenes from Euripides’ Medea and Seneca’s Phaedra, followed by discussion about the relevance of these myths to contemporary society. The evening will be led by Theater of War founder Bryan Doerries, using his translation of Medea and a translation of Phaedra by Laura Weber, with performances by Elizabeth Marvel, Amy Ryan, Donnetta Lavinia Grays, and Bill Camp. Medea and Phaedra—both of which timelessly explore how scorned passion can lead to revenge and unthinkable violence—will serve as the gateway to a discussion surrounding mental illness. These plays pose the question as to whether the irreversible actions of the titular characters are driven by mental illness. From there, Doerries will facilitate a conversation that will address under-discussed mental health issues—such as post-partum depression and psychosis—and will extend to recent incidents that seem uncannily similar to the plots of these ancient plays. For press information contact Christina Norris at [email protected] or 718.636.4129 x8. About the artists Writer, director, and translator Bryan Doerries is the founder of Theater of War, a project that presents readings of ancient Greek plays to military and civilian communities to initiate conversations about the wounds of war.

Hunter (Haley Bennett, THE GIRL ON THE TRAIN) lijkt een perfect leven te leiden samen met Ritchie (Austin Stowell), haar echtgenoot die net de leiding heeft overgenomen van het Conrad- familiebedrijf. Wanneer ze zwanger wordt, ontwikkelt ze de dwangmatige eetstoornis Pica, gekenmerkt door het eten van niet-eetbare dingen. Als de stoornis haar zwangerschap bedreigt, zet haar schoonfamilie alles op alles om de voortzetting van de familielijn te waarborgen. Maar verbergt Hunter’s vreemde en oncontroleerbare obsessie misschien een groter en verschrikkelijk geheim? SWALLOW ging in première op het Filmfestival van Tribeca, waar Haley Bennett naar huis ging met de prijs voor Beste Actrice. CARLO MIRABELLA-DAVIS REGIE, SCENARIO Carlo Mirabella-Davis was born and raised in New York City. He bought his first Super 8 camera at a yard sale at the age of 14 and spent his youth shooting underground films with his friends and sister, fellow filmmaker Francesca Mirabella. He’s always been drawn to the mystique of psychological thrillers, subversive horror, and dark comedies.

  • 'Other Desert Cities'
    Robin Weigert taps Brooke Wyeth's mind in 'Other Desert Cities'... http://articles.latimes.com/print/2012/dec/08/entertainment/la-e... ← Back to Original Article Robin Weigert taps Brooke Wyeth's mind in 'Other Desert Cities' Robin Weigert, who says she 'grew up psychoanalyst,' knows how the 'Other Desert Cities' character she plays at the Taper thinks. She impressed Jon Robin Baitz. December 08, 2012 | By Margaret Gray On your way to meet actress Robin Weigert for the first time, you may be forgiven for feeling some trepidation about who, exactly, will greet you at the door. Will it be Calamity Jane, the buckskin-wearing, dirt-encrusted, foul-tongued frontier woman Weigert portrayed on HBO's "Deadwood"? Or the winged, hovering Angel from the 2010 off-Broadway revival of "Angels in America"? The straight-talking lawyer Ally Lowen on "Sons of Anarchy"? Or perhaps you'll find yourself face-to-face with Brooke Wyeth, the fragile, leftist, Ivy League-educated writer Weigert plays in Jon Robin Baitz's "Other Desert Cities," which opens Sunday at the Mark Taper Forum. PHOTOS: Arts and culture by The Times But although Weigert is both highly educated (Sidwell Friends School, Brandeis University, a master's in acting from New York University) and a liberal Democrat, she doesn't otherwise much resemble the troubled Brooke — or any of her other characters, for that matter. She may throw herself so deeply into each part that she's hard to see. But when she's welcoming you into her West Hollywood apartment, she makes an entirely distinct impression.

  • The Semiotics of Celebrity at the Intersection of Hollywood and Broadway
    THE SEMIOTICS OF CELEBRITY AT THE INTERSECTION OF HOLLYWOOD AND BROADWAY Kevin Calcamp A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY December 2016 Committee: Jonathan Chambers, Advisor Kristen Rudisill Graduate Faculty Representative Cynthia Baron Lesa Lockford © 2016 Kevin Calcamp All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Jonathan Chambers, Advisor In 1990, Michael L. Quinn, in his essay, “Celebrity and the Semiotics of Acting,” considered celebrity phenomenon—and its growth in the latter part of the 20th century—and the affect it had on media, society, and the role and performance of the actor. Throughout the first fifteen years of the 21st century, there has been a multitude of film and television stars headlining in Broadway and Off-Broadway shows. Despite this phenomena, there is currently an absence of scholarship investigating how the casting of Hollywood stars in stage productions affects those individuals in the theatre audience. In this dissertation, I identify, using a variety of semiotic theories, ways in which celebrity is signified by exploring 21st century Broadway and Off- Broadway productions with Hollywood film and television star casting. Hollywood is an industry that thrives on perpetuating celebrity. Film and television stars are products that need to cultivate a consumer base. Every star in Hollywood has specific attributes that are deemed valuable; these values are then marketed and sold to the public, creating a connection between the star and certain values. A film or television star is an established actor who has received fame and acclaim for a least one role that was critically lauded, or their past roles become a part of their value and product.

Winner of the Pulitzer Prize for Drama (How I Learned to Drive 1998) as well as the Obie Award (The Baltimore Waltz 1992), Vogel at age sixty-five made her Broadway debut with Tony-nominated Indecent, a collaborative work with director Rebecca Taichman, inspired by Sholem Asch’s early twentieth-century drama featuring same sex romance, God of Vengeance. After an early closure announcement, Indecent received an unusual extension when Vogel struck back at critics who had given lukewarm reviews and, consequently, ticket sales improved.
