  • We Finally See Rockwell, Williams in FX's First 'Fosse/Verdon' Trailer
    We Finally See Rockwell, Williams in FX's First 'Fosse/Verdon' Trailer 02.25.2019 FX's upcoming eight-episode limited series, Fosse/Verdon, unpacks the turbulent five-decade relationship of legendary Hollywood director and choreographer, Bob Fosse (Sam Rockwell), and his wife, muse and star in her own right, Gwen Verdon (Michelle Williams). Their relationship starts as a director-star cliche and then evolves into something much more complicated as Fosse fuels his manic creativity with drugs, alcohol and sex. Verdon, meanwhile, reaches the height of her career as a Broadway triple threat and multiple Tony winner but watches Fosse stay in the spotlight as she fades into age and obscurity. Still, she remains his unrecognized collaborator even as their marriage unravels. Eventually, Fosse forges a connection with Ann Reinking (Margaret Qualley), an up-and-coming Broadway dancer who has all the talent and tenacity of a young Verdon. She hopes to follow in Verdon's footsteps, but may not have the stomach to put up with everything Fosse demands. Surrounding the couple are a coterie of fellow artists, friends, collaborators, and rivals: playwright and screenwriter Paddy Chayefsky (Norbert Leo Butz); former modern dancer- turned-homemaker Joan Simon (Aya Cash); Joan's husband, playwright Neil Simon (Nate Corddry); and theater producer and director Hal Prince (Evan Handler). The series is executive produced by Rockwell, Williams, Thomas Kail, Steven Levenson, Lin-Manuel Miranda, Joel Fields and George Stelzner. Levenson wrote the premiere episode, which is directed by Kail. Nicole Fosse, daughter of the couple, serves as key creative consultant, co-executive producer and keeper of the Verdon Fosse legacy.

  • “Isn't It Swell... Nowadays?”: the Reception History of Chicago On
    “Isn’t It Swell . Nowadays?”: The Reception History of Chicago on Stage and Screen A thesis submitted to the Graduate School of the University of Cincinnati in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Music in the Division of Composition, Musicology, and Theory of the College-Conservatory of Music by Michael M. Kennedy BM, Butler University, 2004 MM, University of Hartford, 2008 Committee Chair: bruce d. mcclung, PhD Abstract The musical Chicago represents an anomaly in Broadway history: its 1996 revival far surpassed the modest success of the original 1975 production. Despite the original production’s box-office accomplishments, it received disparaging reviews regarding the cynicism of the work’s content. The musical celebrates the crimes and acquittals of two murderesses, and is based on Maurine Dallas Watkins’s coverage as a Chicago Tribune reporter of two 1924 murder cases, from which she generated a 1926 Broadway play. The 1975 Broadway production of Chicago: A Musical Vaudeville utilized this historical source material to comment on contemporary American society, highlighting parallels between the U.S. justice system and the entertainment industry, which critics and audiences of the post-Watergate era deemed as too cynical. Although Chicago initially achieved a mixed reception, the revival’s producers made few changes to John Kander’s music, Fred Ebb’s lyrics, and Ebb and Bob Fosse’s book, aside from simplifying the title to Chicago: The Musical. This suggests that the musical’s newfound success can be attributed to a societal shift in the perception of its subject matter. With further success from Chicago’s 2002 film adaptation, the originally dark and sardonic material became a smash hit and found itself as mainstream entertainment at the turn of the millennium.

  • Dance on TV: Fosse/Verdon by Mira Treatman
    Photo courtesy of FX Networks Dance on TV: Fosse/Verdon by Mira Treatman Carol Burnett once called Gwen Verdon “the sweetest, and most talented dancer in the whole wide world.” In Fosse/Verdon, a mini- series produced by Lin-Manuel Miranda on FX, Verdon emerges as the heroine in contrast to a bitter, terse Robert [Bob] Fosse. The mini-series tracks the parallel biographies of the choreographer Fosse and the dancer-muse Verdon through the course of their courtship, marriage, divorce, and beyond. Fosse is the household name of the couple, but this series offers an equal amount of screen time and narrative space for actor Michelle Williams to portray Verdon as a full human being. Sam Rockwell as Fosse brings out the choreographer’s tortured pursuits of fame and glory. The best part of this series, by far, is the wickedly talented ensemble of concert and stage dancers who perform reconstructions of the classic Fosse numbers as created for the screen by choreographer Andy Blankenbuehler. This crew includes Georgina Pazcoguin in “Big Spender” from Sweet Charity, Heather Lang in “Mein Herr” from Cabaret, and Bianca Marroquín as Chita Rivera in Chicago, among other stand outs. These Broadway dance reconstructions serve as a delicious Fosse career retrospective spanning approximately 1955 to his death in 1987. Blankenbuehler does Fosse justice in translating them to the screen, although several, such as Cabaret and Chicago, have already been presented as films prior to their inclusion in this mini-series. Unsurprisingly, Fosse/Verdon is created for a general audience, perhaps for the period-drama market looking to fill the void left by Mad Men or The Marvelous Mrs.

  • Dance Doc #2 Revised Version
    Fosse: The Man Underneath the Hat Knowing more about the mercurial history of this major jazz innovator can help dancers grasp his style and enhance their performance quality by Danielle Snyder In the 1990 documentary “Bob Fosse: Steam Heat,” which was part of the Great Performances: Dance in America series, Fosse reveals that the frequent use of black hats in his choreography was due to the fact that he was self-conscious about his premature balding, so he himself often wore hats. He also mentions how thankful he was for his hunched over posture and his lack of turn-out, because these “limitations” are what guided him to develop such a unique and recognizable dance style. What does this unveil about Fosse? Though often associated with glorified fame - having earned Tony Awards, Emmy Awards, Academy Awards, and most recently having the FX network show Fosse Verdon put his life back in the spotlight - Fosse is a man of genuine character, with relatable flaws and insecurities. Through interviews with Fosse himself, narration from Gwen Verdon, archival footage of live stage performances and movies, and commentary from several colleagues at his memorial at the Palace Theater in 1987 following his death, this documentary provides an understanding of who Fosse was as a person, and how his character shaped his choreography. As an undergraduate dance major, I was fortunate enough to perform Fosse’s choreography as part of a Chicago Suite reconstructed by Anne Reinking and Gary Chryst. Had I seen this documentary during the rehearsal process and performances of Chicago Suite, I think I would have been better able to execute the choreography, with a deeper knowledge of the contextual history from which the movements developed.
