  • Pitfalls at Globe 1990
    1 "Taint Not Thy Mind...": Problems and Pitfalls in Staging Plays at the New Globe [New Issues in the Reconstruction of Shakespeare's Theatre: Proceedings of the Conference Held at the University of Georgia, February 16-18, 1990, ed. Frank Hildy (Peter Lang: New York, 1990), 135-58] Alan C. Dessen To satisfy its distinctively different clienteles, the New Globe must serve many functions. Admittedly, the interests of one interested party, the scholar-historian, cannot automatically take precedence over the needs or wishes of other constituencies. Nonetheless, decisions that strongly affect, even undermine, the goals of that scholar-historian bear close examination. And thereby hangs my tale. For both the academic and theatrical community, one of the attractive possibilities inherent in this project is that the New Globe may serve as a laboratory or testing ground where actors and scholars working together can investigate how Elizabethan plays could or would have been staged. To make those tests or investigations meaningful, however, various pitfalls must be avoided at the start so as not to blur the issues and, moreover, not to end up with just another venue (or tourist trap) for putting on Shakespeare plays or Elizabethan displays in a London already replete with theatres. In contrast, a strong case can be made in behalf of a distinctively different performing space not subject to the same commercial pressures and post-Elizabethan mind sets that bedevil the present theatres and theatre companies. To talk (often vaguely) about using the new Globe for experiments or testing, however, is much easier than to carry out such experiments successfully, for many roadblocks or hurdles stand in the way, some of them so fundamental that we cannot see or recognize them.

    FinalProject 25/08/2018, 930 PM COGS108 Final Project Group Members: Yanyi Wang Ziwen Zeng Lingfei Lu Yuhan Wang Yuqing Deng Introduction and Background Movie revenue is one of the most important measure of good and bad movies. Revenue is also the most important and intuitionistic feedback to producers, directors and actors. Therefore it is worth for us to put effort on analyzing what factors correlate to revenue, so that producers, directors and actors know how to get higher revenue on next movie by focusing on most correlated factors. Our project focuses on anaylzing all kinds of factors that correlated to revenue, for example, genres, elements in the movie, popularity, release month, runtime, vote average, vote count on website and cast etc. After analysis, we can clearly know what are the crucial factors to a movie's revenue and our analysis can be used as a guide for people shooting movies who want to earn higher renveue for their next movie. They can focus on those most correlated factors, for example, shooting specific genre and hire some actors who have higher average revenue. Reasrch Question: Various factors blend together to create a high revenue for movie, but what are the most important aspect contribute to higher revenue? What aspects should people put more effort on and what factors should people focus on when they try to higher the revenue of a movie? http://localhost:8888/nbconvert/html/Desktop/MyProjects/Pr_085/FinalProject.ipynb?download=false Page 1 of 62 FinalProject 25/08/2018, 930 PM Hypothesis: We predict that the following factors contribute the most to movie revenue.
