  • CABARET SYNOPSIS the Scene Is a Sleazy Nightclub in Berlin As The
    CABARET SYNOPSIS The scene is a sleazy nightclub in Berlin as the 1920s are drawing to a close. Cliff Bradshaw, a young American writer, and Ernst Ludwig, a German, strike up a friendship on a train. Ernst gives Cliff an address in Berlin where he will find a room. Cliff takes this advice and Fräulein Schneider, a vivacious 60 year old, lets him have a room very cheaply. Cliff, at the Kit Kat Club, meets an English girl, Sally Bowles, who is working there as a singer and hostess. Next day, as Cliff is giving Ernst an English lesson, Sally arrives with all her luggage and moves in. Ernst comes to ask Cliff to collect something for him from Paris; he will pay well for the service. Cliff knows that this will involve smuggling currency, but agrees to go. Ernst's fee will be useful now that Cliff and Sally are to be married. Fraulein Schneider and her admirer, a Jewish greengrocer named Herr Schultz, also decide to become engaged and a celebration party is held in Herr Schultz shop. In the middle of the festivities Ernst arrives wearing a Nazi armband. Cliff realizes that his Paris errand was on behalf of the Nazi party and refuses Ernst's payment, but Sally accepts it. At Cliff's flat Sally gets ready to go back to work at the Kit Kat Klub. Cliff determines that they will leave for America but that evening he calls at the Klub and finds Sally there. He is furious, and when Ernst approaches him to perform another errand Cliff knocks him down.

  • Films from the THIRTIES: PART II 1935-39
    t% The Museum of Modern Art 1] West 53 Street, New York, N.Y. 10019 Tel. 245-3200 Cable: Modernart No. 83 FOR RELEASE: Friday, August 25, I968 Films from THE THIRTIES: PART II 1935-39 The Museum of Modern Art, will present a retrospective of films from the thirties beginning August 23, and running through October 6. The Thirties, according to Willard Van Dyke, Director of the Department of Film, will consist of 39 pictures, representing some of the richest creative talent in American cinema at a time that has been called "the dear, dead days not beyond recall." Two years ago the Museum presented The Thirties, U.S.A., Part I, covering the first half of the decade. The films being shown now as Part II were made from 1935 ^^ 193 '• Among the pictures to be shown are: Frank Capra's "Lost Horizon"; Paul Muni in "The Life of Emile Zola," the Story of a Northern Jew's lynching in the South; the great thriller "Night Must Fall," an adaptation of the Emlyn Williams play starring Robert Montgomery; and "The Good Earth," a spectacle film in black and white, from Pearl Buck's popular novel, for which Luise Rainer won her second Academy Award, with Paul Muni in the starring role. The latter part of the thirties was characterized by further achievements in the musical film, largely due to the talents of Fred Astaire, who with Ginger Rogers starred in "Top Hat," and "Shall We Dance," both of which are in the retrospective. The most important contributions to the annals of films made in the thirties was the series of "snowball" comedies Hollywood turned out at a time of grim, economic hardships.

  • Breakfast at the Prater: Christopher Isherwood, His Women and Men
    Breakfast at the Prater: Christopher Isherwood, His Women and Men Gian Piero Piretto My intention is to analyze Christopher Isherwood’s novel Prater Violet1 in connection with a group of books, plays and films that, despite their distance in genre, time and space, provide a basis for an interactive investigation of Isherwood’s novel.2 In Berlin Stories, imagining her own destiny and that of her friend Chris, a fictionalized version of the author, Sally Bowles tells Chris: “We two old tramps are going to be the most marvelous novelist and the greatest actress in the world”.3 Nobody, at the moment of her remark, would have agreed with her, and no-one would have been inclined to confirm her optimistic view. Still, Chris and Sally are determined to face both life and a world turning Nazi and showing very little promise. The political situation notwithstanding, and with all her weakness, unfocused passion and lack of common sense, Sally has great expectations for the future, just like the two tramps who, in Chaplin’s 1936 movie Modern Times, walk towards the horizon, uncertain yet indomitable, showing their backs to the spectators.4 The female character is fundamental in this story. Chris is a shy, insecure, and presumably gay young Englishman living in the gaudy atmosphere of Berlin in the Weimar years, who is at once attracted and bewildered by Sally’s unprompted vitality and bravery, just the opposite of his own attitude toward life. Chris depends on Sally: he has left England to get acquainted with the rest of the world, to put a distance between himself and his middle-class family, and to enjoy the sexual freedom of the most exciting European city.

Those beautiful, intelligent, privileged, lonely women. They are absolutely crazy about me, and that’s a fact. Why? Because damn it, I like them. I pay attention to them. I listen. I understand their problems. I make them laugh. I tell them how to dress, what makeup to wear, what to read and who to love.

(beat) Don’t we all.” Jay Presson Allen, Tru Truman Capote’s “La Côte Basque, 1965,” a chapter from his latest book, Answered Prayers, was recently published in Esquire magazine, and his closest friends are no longer speaking to him. Capote is surprised and astonished at their silence. Alone during the holidays when his social calendar is typically busy, the consequences of his actions become clear and he calms himself with alcohol and drugs, and reminisces about his life, interesting friends, and holidays past.

  • 08 THEATER CLOSE-UP on LETTERHEAD.Clean
    WNET Contact: Harry Forbes 212-560-8027 or [email protected] Sigourney Weaver to Host Theater Close-Up A Weekly Series Showcasing The Best of Off-Broadway, Premiering Thursday, October 2 at 9 p.m. on THIRTEEN Works by Richard Nelson, John Van Druten, Hamish Linklater, Steven Banks, Brian Richard Mori, Denis O’Hare and Lisa Peterson Topline the Inaugural Season Beyond the bright lights of Broadway – the electric signage that led to its moniker as “The Great White Way” -- exists another world: Off-Broadway, a varied and rich wellspring of creativity and innovation. It is the place where both the next generation of actors, playwrights, and directors are developing their voices and veteran talents return to explore their artistic passions. While there is a multitude of Off- and Off-Off-Broadway theaters, producing hundreds of new works each season, most of these shows play just a few weeks and many are seen by only a small audience. The new series, Theater Close-Up , a unique collaboration between THIRTEEN and that large community of non-profit Off-Broadway theaters, will finally bring a diverse cross- section of those provocative plays to primetime and online audiences. The series – which will be hosted by acclaimed actress Sigourney Weaver -- premieres Thursday, October 2 at 9 p.m. on THIRTEEN with John Van Druten’s “London Wall” from the Mint Theater Company, dedicated to bringing worthy but neglected plays back to the stage, and continues on successive Thursdays at 10 p.m. with repeat broadcasts on Sunday evenings following Masterpiece . (WLIW21 will air the series on Monday evenings beginning October 6 at 10:30 p.m.) THIRTEEN is using its unrivaled expertise in producing national PBS arts programming – starting with such classic series as Theater in America , part of the award-winning series Great Performances and special limited series such as Stage on Screen -- to provide New Yorkers with unparalleled access to one of the City’s greatest underexposed cultural assets.

  • LGBTQ+ Artists Represented Int the Performing Arts Special Collections
    LGBTQ+ Artists Represented in the Performing Arts Special Collections in the Library of Congress Music Division Aaron Copland with Samuel Barber and Gian Carlo Menotti, 1945 (Aaron Copland Collection, Box 479 Folder 3) Compiled by Emily Baumgart Archives Processing Technician January 2021 Introduction The artistic community has always had many LGBTQ+ members, including musicians, dancers, choreographers, writers, directors, designers, and other creators. The Music Division holds a wealth of information about these LGBTQ+ artists in its performing arts special collections, which contain musical scores, correspondence, scripts, photographs and other documents of their lives and careers. This survey brings together some of the highlights from these holdings, providing an opportunity to learn more about LGBTQ+ creators and to recognize and celebrate their artistic achievements. The sexual and gender identity of many historical figures has been obscured over time; moreover, it can be difficult to determine how such individuals would identify by today’s terminology, especially when little of their personal life is known. Other figures, however, have disclosed their identity through their private correspondence or other writings. We do not wish to ascribe to any person an identity that they may have disagreed with, but at the same time we recognize that many of the queer community’s accomplishments have been hidden through oppression, prejudice, and forced closeting. By increasing awareness of LGBTQ+ identity in the Music Division’s special collections, we can make relevant primary source materials more readily accessible for students, educators, and scholars to study these creators and their contributions. This survey does not claim to be comprehensive, neither in terms of identifying every LGBTQ+ artist within the Music Division’s special collections nor in terms of identifying every collection in which those artists are represented.

  • LONGACRE THEATER, 220-228 West 48Th Street , Manhattan
    Landmarks Preservation Commission December 8, 1987; Designation List 197 LP-1348 LONGACRE THEATER, 220-228 West 48th Street , Manhattan. Landmark Site: Borough of Manhattan Tax Map Block 1019, Lot 50. Built 1912-13; architect, Henry B. Herts. On June 14 and 15, 1982 , the Landmarks Preservation Commission held a pub 1 ic hearing on the proposed designation as a Landmark of the Longacre Theater and the proposed designation of the related Landmark Site (Item No.44). The hearing was continued to October 19, 1982. Both hearings had been duly advertised in accordance with the provisions of law. Eighty witnesses spoke or had statements read into the record in favor of designation. One witness spoke in opposition to designation. The owner, with his representatives, appeared at the hearing, and indicated that he had not formulated an opinion regarding designation. The Commission has received many letters and other expressions of support in favor of this designation. DESCRIPTION AND ANALYSIS The Longacre Theater survives today as one of the historic playhouses that symbolize American theater for both New York and the nation. Constructed in 1912-13, the Longacre was built to house the productions of Broadway producer and baseball magnate Harry H. Frazee . Designed for Frazee by Henry Herts, prominent theater architect, the Longacre is among the earliest surviving Broadway theaters, and has an exceptionally handsome facade. Like most Broadway playhouses built before World War I, the Longacre was designed by a leading theater architect to house the offices and theatrical productions of its owner. Though known as a baseball magnate, and at one time the owner of the Boston Red Sox, Frazee was also an influential Broadway producer who, besides building the Longacre theater, at one time also owned two other Broadway houses (the Harris and the Lyric).
