In fact, Nashville ranks in the top 12 cities in the country for culture, arts and entertainment, while Business Week named Nashville one of the best places for artists to live in the United States. Therein lies why Nashville is the home of the most talented artists in the country. When you couple that with Nashville being ranked as the eighth strongest economy in the country, we find ourselves living in a very enviable community. The “Playbill” you hold in your hand is the visual voice of the arts, communicating the importance of the arts to the Nashville community. One of our favorite quotes regarding the arts is from Kathleen O’Brien, “We need the arts. They are not a luxury. They make us better people, and they are at the core of strong, vibrant communities”. How true. We thank our readers for being such an important part of the arts, and making Nashville such a strong, vibrant community! Enjoy the show!

    13/15 John Boorman BFI Southbank to honour the director with a BFI Fellowship on 25 March followed by a career retrospective throughout April On 25 March John Boorman will be presented a BFI Fellowship – the highest accolade that the nation’s leading organisation for film can award. To mark the occasion he will be interviewed by Michel Ciment, on-stage at BFI Southbank, to launch a major retrospective of his work and to celebrate his recent 80th birthday. There will also be an Extended Run and nationwide release of Point Blank (1967) and an exhibition of artefacts from Boorman’s personal archive, on display in the Mezzanine – including a dress worn by Helen Mirren in Excalibur (1981). To complement this season there will be an exclusive run of Me and Me Dad (2011), an intimate insight of life in the Boorman family, directed by John’s daughter Katrine Boorman (who will appear in conversation on 27 March, following a preview of her film). According to Philip French, John Boorman is ‘one of the greatest filmmakers this country has produced’. He began his career as a documentary director for the BBC with Citizen 63 (BBC, 1963) and The Newcomers (BBC, 1964), and this season will feature these early works and follow his varied filmmaking career to date. His first feature film, Catch Us If You Can (1965), was a showcase for the Dave Clark Five and caught the attention and support of Pauline Kael. It was followed by The Quarry: Portrait of a Man as a Parylsed Artist (BBC, 1966), inspired by Fellini’s 8½ and events in Boorman’s own life.

In A Lion Among Men, the third volume in Maguire’s acclaimed, New York Times bestselling series The Wicked Years, a fuller, more complex Cowardly Lion is brought to life and gets to tell his remarkable tale. It is a story of oppression and fear in a world gone mad with war fever—of Munchkins, Wizards, and Wicked Witches—and especially of a gentle soul and determined survivor who is truly A Lion Among Men. {4.25 stars}ALAM doesnt have quite the impact of WICKED, but that is to be expected, WICKED being the first of the tetralogy which laid out Maguires entire alternate mythos of Oz. Still, this third book holds its own in the series. The characterization of the Brrr the Cowardly Lion is keen: Hes not cowardly, just thoughtfully indecisive, ambivalent about loyalties, and subject to blame no matter what he does, qualities often confused with cowardice. His low status as an Animal in Ozs caste system has obvious parallels in our world.

"Hardly more than a kitten. I had thought to call it Prrr, but it shivers more oen than it purrs, so I call it Brrr instead," said Elphaba, the Wicked Witch of the West, who had an early hand in the Lion's fate. Years later, having helped Dorothy defeat Elphaba, and with civil war in Oz looming, Brrr must find the ancient oracle Yackle to learn what he can of the secrets of Elphaba's power. Fans of Maguire's darker, more complex Oz will not be disappointed with this installment, as Brrr also learns much about his own past and his destiny. 312.

  • 'The Wizard of Oz' to 'Wicked': Trajectory of American Myth
    FROM 'THE WIZARD OF OZ' TO 'WICKED': TRAJECTORY OF AMERICAN MYTH Alissa Burger 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 May 2009 Committee: Ellen Berry, Advisor Gene S. Trantham Graduate Faculty Representative Don McQuarie Piya Pal Lapinski © 2009 Alissa Burger All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Ellen Berry, Advisor The Wizard of Oz story has been omnipresent in American popular culture since the first publication of L. Frank Baum’s children’s book The Wonderful Wizard of Oz at the dawn of the twentieth century. Ever since, filmmakers, authors, and theatre producers have continued to return to Oz over and over again. However, while literally hundreds of adaptations of the Wizard of Oz story abound, a handful of transformations are particularly significant in exploring discourses of American myth and culture: L. Frank Baum’s The Wonderful Wizard of Oz (1900); MGM’s classic film The Wizard of Oz (1939); Sidney Lumet’s film The Wiz (1978); Gregory Maguire’s novel Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West (1995); and Stephen Schwartz and Winnie Holzman’s Broadway musical Wicked (2003). This project critiques theories of fixed or prescriptive American myth, instead developing a theory of American myth as active, performative and even, at times, participatory, achieved through discussion of the fluidity of text and performance, built on Diana Taylor’s theory of the archive and the repertoire. By approaching text and performance as fluid rather than fixed, this dissertation facilitates an interdisciplinary consideration of these works, bringing children’s literature, film, popular fiction, theatre, and music together in a theoretically multifaceted approach to the Wizard of Oz narrative, its many transformations, and its lasting significance within American culture.
