As we get older it can become increasingly difficult to leave the house to participate in favorite activities. There is a source of comfort that may benefit you. Pets can help reduce stress, lower blood pressure, increase sociali- zation and physical activity. Be- fore considering getting a pet, it’s a good idea to evaluate what will work for you. Have you had pets before? Are you physically capa- ble of caring for an animal? If you get a dog, will you be able to walk it regularly? If your answer are yes, then you may want to consider getting a pet. While breeders are good sources for pets, a rescue from a shelter might be less expensive. Some shelters offer reduced fees for older pets and for senior citi- zens. In addition, you may give an animal a second chance for a good home. If you are unable to commit to the level of activity a dog may require, consider a cat or perhaps a bird. Just make sure that you are able to provide the care and maintenance your pet may re- quire. You’ll reap the benefits of companionship in return. If you don’t want a pet but are looking for an extra dose of love, join us on Monday mornings for our “Pawsitive” Visitors pro- gram.

  • Broadway Starts to Rock: Musical Theater Orchestrations and Character, 1968-1975 By
    Broadway Starts to Rock: Musical Theater Orchestrations and Character, 1968-1975 By Elizabeth Sallinger M.M., Duquesne University, 2010 B.A., Pennsylvania State University, 2008 Submitted to the graduate degree program in Musicology and the Graduate Faculty of the University of Kansas in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. Chair: Paul R. Laird Roberta Freund Schwartz Bryan Kip Haaheim Colin Roust Leslie Bennett Date Defended: 5 December 2016 ii The dissertation committee for Elizabeth Sallinger certifies that this is the approved version of the following dissertation: Broadway Starts to Rock: Musical Theater Orchestrations and Character, 1968-1975 Chair: Paul R. Laird Date Approved: 5 December 2016 iii Abstract In 1968, the sound of the Broadway pit was forever changed with the rock ensemble that accompanied Hair. The musical backdrop for the show was appropriate for the countercultural subject matter, taking into account the popular genres of the time that were connected with such figures, and marrying them to other musical styles to help support the individual characters. Though popular styles had long been part of Broadway scores, it took more than a decade for rock to become a major influence in the commercial theater. The associations an audience had with rock music outside of a theater affected perception of the plot and characters in new ways and allowed for shows to be marketed toward younger demographics, expanding the audience base. Other shows contemporary to Hair began to include rock music and approaches as well; composers and orchestrators incorporated instruments such as electric guitar, bass, and synthesizer, amplification in the pit, and backup singers as components of their scores.

  • Geva's 43 Season Begins with Monty Python's Spamalot
    Media Contact: Dawn Kellogg Communications Manager (585) 420-2059 [email protected] FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE GEVA’S 43RD SEASON BEGINS WITH MONTY PYTHON’S SPAMALOT Broadway couple Hunter Foster and Jennifer Cody lead cast. Geva partners with WXXI and the Little Theatre for Monty Python Film Series. Rochester, N.Y., August 18, 2015 – Audiences are in for an outrageously hilarious time as Geva Theatre Center presents the Tony Award-winning hit musical, Monty Python’s Spamalot by Eric Idle and John Du Prez and directed by Melissa Rain Anderson in the Elaine P. Wilson Stage from September 9 through October 11. Lovingly ripped off from the classic comedy film Monty Python and the Holy Grail, this outrageous musical parody tells the legendary tale of King Arthur and his Knights of the Round Table. Embarking on their quest to find the Holy Grail, the Knights’ shenanigans include flying cows, beautiful show girls, killer rabbits, and flatulent Frenchmen – all while performing heart-stopping and hilarious musical numbers. 2015 marks the 40th Anniversary of the release of Monty Python and the Holy Grail. The film was a box office hit and was the highest grossing British film shown in the U.S. in 1975, surpassing films such as The Rocky Horror Picture Show, Tommy, The Man Who Would Be King and Return of the Pink Panther. In 2005, Spamalot, adapted from the film, premiered on Broadway following a Chicago preview run. Directed by Mike Nichols, Spamalot received 14 Tony Award nominations and won three, including the award for Best Musical. During its Broadway run, it was seen by over 2 million people and grossed over $175 million.

Director’s Note On behalf of our cast and crew, I’m very excited to welcome you to The Aerospace Players’ production of Mary Poppins! The cast has been in rehearsals for almost three months now, and is thrilled to bring the show to stage, and to share it with you. Mary Poppins, despite the popularity of the 1964 movie, is only a relatively recent arrival to stage, having made its stage debut in London in 2004, then opening on Broadway in 2006, where it ran for 2,619 performances over seven years. Featuring the classic music and characters of the movie, it nonetheless reinvented and deepened the story of the Banks family, adding interesting new characters and heartfelt new music. And since no one could imagine Mary Poppins without a little “magic,” it also seems includes some special treats for the audience.
