Printed in the U.S.A. DEAR PATRONS © Carter Rose Welcome to the AT&T Performing Arts Center, where we’re celebrating ten years of “Staging the Amazing.” Amazing shows like Once On This Island which won the 2018 Tony for Best Musical Revival. The original production debuted on Broadway in 1990— but I’m sure the show has never looked or sounded better than here in the incomparable Winspear Opera House. Next up in our Broadway Series is The Color Purple, followed by Blue Man Group, then The Band’s Visit, An American in Paris, Bandstand, and The SpongeBob Musical! And the AT&T Performing Arts Center is more than Broadway. We present speakers, like Captain Scott Kelly who will be here next month (January 23, 2020); family shows like PJ Masks Live! (1/20); the finest dance companies in the world with our partner TITAS/Dance Unbound, like Malandain Ballet Biarritz (2/7-8); concerts, like Il Volo (2/27); and comedy, like Jeanne Robertson (2/28). We provide stages for our five esteemed resident companies: Anita N. Martinez Ballet Folklorico, Dallas Black Dance Theatre, The Dallas Opera, Dallas Theater Center and Texas Ballet Theater. And through our Elevator Project we present the best of new and emerging Dallas arts groups. If you’ve joined us since we opened in 2009, you probably know that the AT&T Performing Arts Center is more than great shows. For many students in this community, our education programs can be the beginning of a lifetime love of culture, or even a career in the arts. Our many community engagement initiatives are introducing more people to the arts. By being a member, donor, or a patron at the Center, you’re helping us share experiences like these. Thank you for spending some of your holiday season with us. Enjoy Once On This Island and we’ll see you again soon!

  • Rca Records to Release American Idol: Greatest Moments on October 1
    THE RCA RECORDS LABEL ___________________________________________ RCA RECORDS TO RELEASE AMERICAN IDOL: GREATEST MOMENTS ON OCTOBER 1 On the heels of crowning Kelly Clarkson as America's newest pop superstar, RCA Records is proud to announce the release of American Idol: Greatest Moments on Oct. 1. The first full-length album of material from Fox's smash summer television hit, "American Idol," will include four songs by Clarkson, two by runner-up Justin Guarini, a song each by the remaining eight finalists, and “California Dreamin’” performed by all ten. All 14 tracks on American Idol: Greatest Moments, produced by Steve Lipson (Backstreet Boys, Annie Lennox), were performed on "American Idol" during the final weeks of the reality-based television barnburner. In addition to Kelly and Justin, the show's remaining eight finalists featured on the album include Nikki McKibbon, Tamyra Gray, EJay Day, RJ Helton, AJ Gil, Ryan Starr, Christina Christian, and Jim Verraros. Producer Steve Lipson, who put the compilation together in an unprecedented two-weeks time, finds a range of pop gems on the album. "I think Kelly's version of ‘Natural Woman' is really strong. Her vocals are brilliant. She sold me on the song completely. I like Christina's 'Ain't No Sunshine.' I think she got the emotion of it across well. Nikki is very good as well -- very underestimated. And Tamyra is brilliant too so there's not much more to say about her." RCA Records will follow American Idol: Greatest Moments with the debut album from “American Idol” champion Kelly Clarkson in the first quarter of 2003.

  • Body As Evidence
    Chapter 1 Pop Goes Democracy Mediating Race, Gender, and Nation on American Idol Parallels between presidential elections and the hit TV series are not hard to make. Indeed, they had become punch lines in comedyAmerican routines: Idol from Comedy Central’s Stephen Colbert complaining that it took too long to determine the next American Idol (in a gag that had audiences assuming he was referring to the next U.S. president) to ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel quipping that, after watching the vice presidential debate during the U.S. presidential campaign in 2008, he “voted four times for Sarah Palin and six times for David Archuleta,” in reference to the popular Republican vice presidential candidate and frontrunner contestant that year. Interestingly, movie critic RogerAmerican Ebert Idol’s mounted criticism against Palin for being “the American Idol candidate,” in which he argued the following: I think I might be able to explain some of Sarah Palin’s appeal. She’s the “American Idol” candidate. Consider. What defines an “American Idol” finalist? They’re good‑looking, work well on television, have a sunny personality, are fierce competitors, and so talented, why, they’re darned near the real thing. There’s a reason “American Idol” gets such high ratings. People identify with the contestants. They think, Hey, that could be me up there on that show! . My problem is, I don’t want to be up there. I don’t want a vice president who is darned near good enough. I want a vice president who is better, wiser, well‑traveled, has met world leaders, who three months ago had an opinion on Iraq.

  • 05-06 WBB Recruiting
    Recruiting Dear Prospective Student-Athlete: It is with great pride that I introduce you to the Georgia State University women’s basketball program. The following pages represent a brief glimpse into the heart of the people and places that make Panther Basketball so successful. For 11 years, as members of the Atlantic Sun Conference, the players and staff of this program succeeded in building a strong foundation that supports a highly competitive basketball team. Over the years, we have achieved a great deal of success and are now striving to reach even greater levels as we compete in the Colonial Athletic Association (CAA), one of the NCAA’s most competitive women’s basketball leagues and the eighth (8th) best conference in the nation in the final 2005-06 RPI standings. The success we obtained while members of the Atlantic Sun Conference has made this foundation a strong one. We have posted eight winning seasons over the last nine years and won 15 or more games in eight of the last nine campaigns. Additionally, during that same time frame, we have earned four postseason appearances, including three NCAA Tournament berths, three A-Sun Tournament Championships and three Regular Season Conference Champi- onships. Our success starts with recruiting and developing outstanding student-athletes. Over the past 12 years, we have had four players recognized as the Conference Player of the Year and 25 players who have earned All-Conference honors. To continue to build on these achievements as we compete in the CAA, the Panthers have signed another talented incoming class and are looking forward to contending for the conference championships and another NCAA Tourna- ment berth.

  • How American Idol Constructs Celebrity, Collective Identity, and American Discourses
    AMERICAN IDEAL: HOW AMERICAN IDOL CONSTRUCTS CELEBRITY, COLLECTIVE IDENTITY, AND AMERICAN DISCOURSES A Dissertation Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy By Amanda Scheiner McClain May, 2010 i © Copyright 2010 by Amanda Scheiner McClain All Rights Reserved ii ABSTRACT This dissertation is a three-pronged study examining American themes, celebrity, and collective identity associated with the television program American Idol. The study includes discourse analyses of the first seven seasons of the program, of the season seven official American Idol message boards, and of the 2002 and 2008 show press coverage. The American themes included a rags-to-riches narrative, archetypes, and celebrity. The discourse-formed archetypes indicate which archetypes people of varied races may inhabit, who may be sexual, and what kinds of sexuality are permitted. On the show emotional exhibitions, archetypal resonance, and talent create a seemingly authentic celebrity while discourse positioning confirms this celebrity. The show also fostered a complication-free national American collective identity through the show discourse, while the online message boards facilitated the formation of two types of collective identities: a large group of American Idol fans and smaller contestant-affiliated fan groups. Finally, the press coverage study found two overtones present in the 2002 coverage, derision and awe, which were absent in the 2008 coverage. The primary reasons for this absence may be reluctance to criticize an immensely popular show and that the American Idol success was no longer surprising by 2008. By 2008, American Idol was so ingrained within American culture that to deride it was to critique America itself.
