  • …But You Could've Held My Hand by Jucoby Johnson
    …but you could’ve held my hand By JuCoby Johnson Characters Eddie (He/Him/His)- Black Charlotte/Charlie (They/Them/Theirs)- Black Marigold (She/Her/Hers)- Black Max (He/Him/His)- Black Setting The past and present. Author’s Notes Off top: EveryBody in this play is Black. I strongly encourage anyone casting this play to avoid getting bogged down in a narrow understanding of blackness or limit themselves to their own opinions on what it means to be black. Consider the full spectrum of Blackness and what you will find is the full spectrum of humanity. One character in this play is gender non-binary. I encourage people to fill the role with an actor who is also gender non-binary. I also urge people not to stop there. Consider trans performers for any and all roles. This play can only benefit from their presence in the room. The ages of the actors don’t need to match the ages of the characters. I would actually encourage an ensemble of all different ages. As we play with time in this play, this will open us up to possibilities that extend beyond realism or any other genre. Speaking of genre, my only request is that the play be theatrical. Whatever that means to you. This is not realism, or naturalism, or expressionism, or any other ism. Forget all about genre. All that to say: Be Bold. Have fun. Lead with love. 2 “Love is or it ain’t. Thin love ain’t love at all.” -Toni Morrison 3 A Beginning Darkness.

  • MTO 2.2: Burnham, Theorists
    Volume 2, Number 2, March 1996 Copyright © 1996 Society for Music Theory Scott Burnham KEYWORDS: theorists, musicologists, musical training, prototypes, Chopsticks [1] Everyone in this room has probably either heard or performed the piano classic popularly known as “Chopsticks.” Here’s a question for you then: Why is Chopsticks so fun to play? And here are a few answers. Let’s start with one that does not involve a close reading of “the music itself ”. For instance, let’s start with the title and its implications. Guess what: the fun we have with Chopsticks is not as innocent as we might have imagined. The title perhaps implies that the piece could be played with chopsticks, that its blankly primitive repetitions are to be associated with what a Westerner might ethnocentrically think of as blankly primitive tableware. And thus a seemingly innocuous bit of piano play could be interpreted as invoking anti-Asian prejudices so thoroughly ingrained in our American culture that they are imbibed in the very first organized polyphony we generally learn to produce on the piano. An investigation of Chopsticks in this vein would reveal sinister forces pulling at our fingers, making sure we in fact enjoy the work of stereotype and subjugation, such that it becomes a form of play. We could then broaden the context of this interpretation by playing figuratively on the fundamental black-and-whiteness of the keyboard, invoking the degraded histories of ivory and slavery, latent horrors waiting to be uncovered in the family piano. Remember, for instance, that Chopsticks stays on the white keys and celebrates (enforces?) Western diatonic tonality, while that old pentatonic ditty—rival to Chopsticks among the piano’s young proteges—is primitively played with a rolling fist on the black keys.

    ... today’s leading exponent of (the) legacy. Backstage 2007 THE DANCER OF THE FUTURE will be one whose body and soul have grown so harmoniously together that the natural language of that soul will have become the movement of the human body. The dancer will not belong to a nation but to all humanity. She will not dance in the form of nymph, nor fairy, nor coquette, but in the form of woman in her greatest and purest expression. From all parts of her body shall shine radiant intelligence, bringing to the world the message of the aspirations of thousands of women. She shall dance the freedom of women – with the highest intelligence in the freest body.

    ANTHROPOLOGICAL PAPERS OF THE American fluseum of Natural History. Vol. XI, Part X. DANCES AND SOCIETIES OF THE PLAINS SHOSHONE. BY ROBERT H. LOWIE. NEW YORK: Published by Order of the Trustees. 1915. DANCES AND SOCIETIES OF THE PLAINS SHOSHONE. By ROBERT H. LOWIE. 803 PREFACE. From the beginning it had been intended to include those Shoshonean tribes who had been more or less affected by the culture of the Plains in the present survey of the military societies of that area. Accordingly, I devoted a portion of the summer of 1912 to seeking relevant data from the Comanche, Southern Ute, and Wind River Shoshone. The Comanche were visited in the vicinity of Lawton, Oklahoma; the Southern Ute at Navaho Springs and Ignacio, Colorado; the Shoshone at Wind River, Wyoming. In 1914, a brief visit was paid to the Ute of Whiterocks, Uintah Reservation, Utah. While the information is meager for all of the tribes concerned, I feel reasonably sure that this is largely due to the relative simplicity of Sho- shonean culture and that the essential features of the Ute and Wind River dances are correctly represented. I am much less confident as regards the Comanche, who proved poor, and in part very unwilling, informants. For the pictures of the Bear dance, as well as for innumerable courtesies during my brief stay at Navaho Springs, I feel under deep obligations to Mr. and Mrs. Charles D. Wagner. March, 1915. 805 CONTENTS. PAGE. PREFACE . 805 COMANCHE DANCES . 809 DANCES AND SOCIETIES OF THE WIND RIVER SHOSHONE . 813 THE YELLOW NOSES AND THE LOGS .
