  • Notes & Queries
    NOTES & QUERIES ON THE STATUS OF THE CHRISTMAS CRIB IN THE UNITED STATES Franz H. Mueller No typical American Chrismas crib exists, nor is there an ideal Italian, Austrian, French or .German creche type. America's ethnic pluralism has resulted in a variety of three-dimensional representations of the Nativity, each type reflecting, at least to a degree, the national origins of those who made and used them. A scientifically satis- factory account of the present state of Nativity art in the United States would require a greater expenditure of time, effort and money than this writer can afford. The readers will, therefore, have to content themselves with something of a quasi-geographic survey which offers repre- sentative examples from various parts of this country. We will start our survey in Maine where we find a collector, exhibitor, and distributor of Provencal santons, French-born Helene P. Carter of Topsham. She spends most of her time in the Provence, ferreting out and buying up good-quality santons. She has written an informative article called "What is a Santon?", and distributed it among interested audiences. Mrs. Carter speaks in schools. libraries, and museums on the origins, production tech- nique, and significance of those criche figures. The Criquet Shop, a store in Damariscotte, ME, sells a great variety of imported santons, largely those made by the santonnier (santon-maker) M. Carbonel. The shop's illus- trated catalogue with colored figures of some 122 figurines models, landscapes, etc., is fun to examine. In the New England of the Puritans, the celebration of Christmas uds abhorred as popish and was legally for- bidden.

  • La Gazette De L'ostal Du Lac Decembre 2020
    LA GAZETTE DE L’OSTAL DU LAC DECEMBRE 2020 LES FÊTES DE NOËL DANS DIFFERENTS PAYS Le Portugal Au Portugal, les cadeaux de Noël sont donnés la veille de Noël par le Père Noël ou l’enfant Jésus selon les croyances. Ceux qui ont une cheminée y brûlent un tronc d’olivier ou de châtaigner et trouvent leurs cadeaux dans les chaussures qu’ils apposent en face. Il est fréquent de retrouver une crèche dans les foyers portugais, à laquelle les parents ajoutent au dernier moment la figurine du petit Jésus pour surprendre les enfants. Que trouve-t-on au menu ? Beaucoup de morue et le Bolo Rei, gâteau de fruits confits ! L’Allemagne Bienvenue aux pays des meilleurs marchés de Noël ! L’Allemagne possède plusieurs traditions uniques liées à Noël, à commencer par la multitude de calendriers de l’Avent que l’on trouve dans les foyers germaniques. Dans le sud-est du pays, les enfants demandent des cadeaux au Christkind, une petite fille que l’on retrouve symbolisée dans les parades. La Saint-Nicholas, le 6 décembre, est aussi une occasion d’offrir des cadeaux aux petits. Le dessert traditionnel est le Stollen. L’Espagne La majorité des cadeaux en Espagne sont ouverts le 6 janvier, qui correspond aux jours où les Rois Mages apportèrent leurs cadeaux au petit Jésus. Le touron, sorte de nougat, est la gourmandise la plus appréciée de toute la famille pendant les fêtes. Deux traditions originales subsistent en Catalogne : celle du Tió de Nadal, une bûche que l’on nourrit et enveloppe dans une couverture à partir du 8 décembre, avant de la frapper le jour de Noël pour qu’elle délivre les cadeaux; et celle du Caganer, un santon qui fait ses besoins dans un coin de la crèche ! L’Italie Le Noël italien débute le 8 décembre et arrive à son terme lors de l’Épiphanie, un jour après que la Befana (sorcière) apporte des cadeaux aux enfants.

  • A CHRISTMAS CAROL an Actor Friend of Mine Said Once That All Directors Are Either Mechanics Or Gardeners
    A CHRISTMAS CAROL an actor friend of mine said once that all directors are either mechanics or gardeners. A mechanic solves problems so that the machine works; a gardener creates the conditions in which something can grow. Some of the most vital jobs at The Shaw require mechanics; but to direct our plays, I want gardeners. What does this mean for the process or result of our work? It means a process in which rehearsals are playful and exploratory. It means that we don’t try to nail down the ‘right’ version of a scene; we play inside it and allow it to reveal itself – over the course of a whole season. And the result? Well, the thing about gardening is that there is no result. A beautiful tree may appear, but it will not be fin- ished. It will keep growing and, with love and care, it will simply get more and more beautiful with time. This is the garden we will be FESTIVAL THEATRE Me and My Girl • creating, together with you.
