I examine how song and dance – sites of aesthetic difference within the musical – can warp time and enable marginalized and semi-marginalized fans to imagine different ways of being in the world. Musical numbers can complicate a linear, developmental plot by accelerating and decelerating time, foregrounding repetition and circularity, bringing the past to life and projecting into the future, and physicalizing dreams in a narratively open present. These excesses have the potential to contest naturalized constructions of historical, progressive time, as well as concordant constructions of gender, sexual, and racial identities. While the musical has historically been a rich source of identification for the stereotypical white gay male show queen, this project validates a broad and flexible range of non-normative readings.

  • China's Smiling Face to the World: Beijing's English
    ABSTRACT Title of Thesis: CHINA’S SMILING FACE TO THE WORLD: BEIJING’S ENGLISH-LANGUAGE MAGAZINES IN THE FIRST DECADE OF THE PEOPLE’S REPUBLIC Leonard W. Lazarick, M.A. History Directed By: Professor James Z. Gao Department of History In the 1950s, the People’s Republic of China produced several English-language magazines to inform the outside world of the remarkable transformation of newly reunified China into a modern and communist state: People’s China, begun in January 1950; China Reconstructs, starting in January 1952; and in March 1958, Peking Review replaced People’s China. The magazines were produced by small staffs of Western- educated Chinese and a few experienced foreign journalists. The first two magazines in particular were designed to show the happy, smiling face of a new and better China to an audience of foreign sympathizers, journalists, academics and officials who had little other information about the country after most Western journalists and diplomats had been expelled. This thesis describes how the magazines were organized, discusses key staff members, and analyzes the significance of their coverage of social and cultural issues in the crucial early years of the People’s Republic.

  • Starting a New Year Is a Chance for Change. Things Are Different Now, for Everyone Who’S in This Room, to How They Were Last Year
    Starting a new year is a chance for change. Things are different now, for everyone who’s in this room, to how they were last year. It doesn’t matter if you’ve been at this school all your life or if today is your first day – this year is a new year and we have different responsibilities, expectations, privileges and opportunities. With all this potential for change, the one piece of advice I think I can give is to give everything – absolutely everything – a go. This school offers so many varied opportunities through this whole year – in sport, creative education, social activism, service; the list is endless. I can tell you that, if the last two years are anything to go by, then this year will be over before we know it and there are chances in the next one, two or three years for everyone here to take these opportunities – because they won’t present themselves in this number and variation again. Whether you’re the songbird of this generation or tonally challenged, House Music is coming up later this term, so give it a go. Try out for all the events at House Swimming and House Aths. You can actually make a positive difference through helping with the charities that the School is involved in, or star in the upcoming Senior School Play. The School offers amazing trips throughout the year, some of which are experiences you could have nowhere else. The opportunities are practically endless. I guess the scary thing about trying something new is leaving yourself open to failure and criticism.

Socialization – A Global Study Students complete an internet “webquest” to learn about others who a very different from them. During the course of this activity, students will learn about an American family who has very strict rules for dating along with a group of islanders who believe in having a lot of premarital sex – but not eating together in public. Students will also learn about the Mauritanian standard of beauty that involves women force feeding themselves and about a community that believes smoking is good for you – so they let their 18 month olds do it! Spit / Saliva Demonstration In this demonstration, students will analyze the different perspectives on spit/saliva as well as examine what it means to have something be a “social construct.” Socialization Through Music In this activity, students will apply their learning about 4 agents of socialization (family, friends, school, and the media) through music. For each song, students will see how one of the agents of socialization has shaped a person. The culminating activity will be for students to select their

  • 2021 Breeze Show Choir Catalog
    Previously Arranged Titles (updated 2/24/21) Specific details about each arrangement (including audio samples and cost) are available at https://breezetunes.com . The use of any of these arrangements requires a valid custom arrangement license purchased from https://tresonamusic.com . Their licensing fees typically range from $180 to $280 per song and must be paid before you can receive your music. Copyright approval frequently takes 4-6 weeks, sometimes longer, so plan accordingly. If changes to the arrangement are desired, there is an additional fee of $100. Examples of this include re-voicing (such as from SATB to another voice part), rewriting band parts, making cuts, adding an additional verse, etc. **Arrangements may be transposed into a different key free of charge, provided that the change does not make re-voicing necessary** For songs that do not have vocal rehearsal tracks, these can be created for $150/song. To place an order, send an e-mail to [email protected] or submit a license request on Tresona listing Garrett Breeze as the arranger, Tips for success using Previously Arranged Titles: • Most arrangements can be made to work in any voicing, so don’t be afraid to look at titles written for other combinations of voices than what you have. Most SATB songs, for example, can be easily reworked for SAT. • Remember that show function is one of the most important things to consider when purchasing an arrangement. For example, if something is labelled in the catalog as a Song 2/4, it is probably not going to work as a closer.
