In spite of the wild and wooly weather, the plays went off without a hitch and there was always an ample audience. Gary Briggle was judged the winner of the Irene Ryan Award acting auditions. Gary played the Jesus role in St. Olaf's pro duction of Godspeli. Local audiences may recall him from Highland Summer Theatre productions: Alaric in Peg 'O My Heart; Uncle Ben in Death of a Salesman; Hysterium in A Funny Thing Hap pened . Remember the Pontius Pilate number in He Lived the Good Life? That was Gary. Gary receives a $500 scholarship and a trip to the A.C.T.F. in Washington D.C. where he will audition with other regional winners in the Eisenhower Theatre of the John F.

What actually will take place is as follows: On Feb. 22 and 23, the various regional chairmen and central committee members who have been evaluating the plays at various regional festivals (other than their own) will convene in Ft. Worth, Texas and present their choices as to which ten plays of the nearly sixty-five pre sented, would make a fine national festival at the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts on April 7 thru 20. Since there are thirteen regions and only ten plays selected, some regions may not be represented, while others may send two plays, the trick is to get the best possible college productions performing at the national festival.

Baker, Jr. Memorial Fund creator of the Baker Artist Awards | www.bakerartistawards.org Media Partners 2 ANNE OF THE THOUSAND DAYS The Studio: Grow With Us A Note from the Founding Artistic Director We’re growing … again! After just two years in our beautiful new theater, we fi nd a need to expand again. So, this January, we’re opening new space next door in Ian Gallanar. Photo by Theatre the Merchants Club building on Redwood Street. Called Consultants Collaborative Inc. The Studio at the Chesapeake Shakespeare Company, this gorgeous space will be used as a classroom, as an alternative performance space, and as rehearsal space. It’s going to be such a useful tool for the development of our organization. We’ll have the ability to reach so many more students for afterschool and weekend programs, community education, and professional artist development opportunities. I envision The Studio to be connected to our performance programming in a way that supports each. The theater will serve the school while the school supports the theater. We’ve believed in artist development and advancing our educational programming since our beginning. It’s one of the reasons I choose plays like Anne of the Thousand Days for our seasons.

  • PINTER on SCREEN: POWER, SEX & POLITICS (1 July – 31 August) – Curated by Harold Pinter Biographer and Theatre Critic for the Guardian Michael Billington
    Tuesday 19 June 2018, London. To mark the 10th anniversary of the death of one of the most important and influential British playwrights of the last century, HAROLD PINTER, BFI Southbank will host a special two month season – PINTER ON SCREEN: POWER, SEX & POLITICS (1 July – 31 August) – curated by Harold Pinter biographer and theatre critic for The Guardian Michael Billington. Best-known for his work as a playwright, PINTER ON SCREEN will celebrate his contribution to film and television, which was extremely significant, not only writing pioneering plays for television, but also for working on scripts for a varied range of landmark films like Joseph Losey’s The Servant (1963), The French Lieutenant’s Woman (Karel Reisz, 1981) starring Meryl Streep and Jeremy Irons, The Comfort of Strangers (Paul Schrader, 1990) and the 1990 adaptation of Margaret Atwood’s still all-too-relevant The Handmaid’s Tale (Volker Schlöndorff). “‘Truth in drama, is forever elusive. You never quite find it, but the search for it is compulsive.’ – Harold Pinter on receiving the Nobel Prize for Literature in 2005. On this statement, and on Pinter, season curator Michael Billington says: “That applies as much to his work for the screen as it does to the stage with which it shares many qualities: a fascination with the private roots of power, an abiding preoccupation with memory and the deceptiveness of language, a belief in the agency of women. Pinter, from his teenage years when he explored the work of Luis Buñuel, Marcel Carné and Jean Vigo, was always passionately in love with cinema and was proud that the majority of his screenplays were filmed.

    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Central Archive at the University of Reading Three different Cherry Orchards, three different worlds: Chekhov at the BBC, 1962-1981. Billy Smart Abstract: Unlike the theatre, there is no established tradition of plays being revived (new productions made from existing scripts) on television. The only instance of this mode of production in Britain has been the regular adaptation of classic theatrical plays. The existence of three separate BBC versions of Chekhov’s The Cherry Orchard (1962, 1971, 1981) creates a rare opportunity to trace developing styles of direction and performance in studio television drama through three different interpretations of the same scene. Through close analysis of The Cherry Orchard, I outline the aesthetic and technological development of television drama itself over twenty years. Keywords: The Cherry Orchard, Anton Chekhov, BBC, Richard Eyre, Trevor Griffiths, television adaptation and studio space. This article intends to demonstrate the unique value that study of the classic theatrical adaptation can hold for television studies, and add to the small corpus of writing on the television theatrical adaptation.i A major difference between theatre and television is that there is little tradition of drama made for TV being revived. Repeated, certainly, but not revival in the theatrical sense of the same script being reinterpreted. While television retells classic stories from literature and reboots old programmes, one thing that it does not do is make new productions from existing scripts, as continually happens in the theatrical repertoryii. While literary classics such as Great Expectations or Jane Eyre have been adapted regularly for British television,iii each new production has been a reimagining of the source novel through an entirely new screenplay, unlike theatrical adaptations, which generally closely followed the same settings, form, structure and dialogue created by the original playwright.

  • Shakespeare in Another Sense: a Study of Physical and Textual Perception in Four Plays
    Shakespeare in Another Sense: A Study of Physical and Textual Perception in Four Plays by Jennifer Rae McDermott A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Department of English University of Toronto © Copyright by Jennifer Rae McDermott (2012) SHAKESPEARE IN ANOTHER SENSE: A STUDY OF PHYSICAL AND TEXTUAL PERCEPTION IN FOUR PLAYS Jennifer Rae McDermott Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Department of English University of Toronto 2012 ABSTRACT This dissertation investigates how the sensory body informs an audience’s reception, and perception, of Shakespearean drama. Specifically, I question the nature of subject/object relations through a comprehensive study of all five senses in Shakespeare. Positioned as mediators of knowledge between body and mind, the senses provide a means to examine the relationship between self-constituting subjects “in here” and exterior world objects “out there.” I believe that early modern authors, and Shakespeare foremost among them, used the liminality of the physical senses to test newly emergent ideas of inwardness and individual consciousness. My dissertation upends the sensory hierarchy assumed by Western tradition by arguing that smell, taste, and touch are crucial to theatrical experience; indeed, they invite a deeper form of theatrical receptivity through subject/object interpenetration than the senses of hearing or seeing. This is because sights and sounds distance the perceiving-subject from the perceived-object onstage, inviting us instead to reflect upon the theatrical medium that fills the divide. My project places the bodily senses and affective faculties in conversation in order to explore the sensory metaphors that motivate character judgements and plot understandings at a level of felt engagement.
