Led by Music Director Andris Nelsons (pictured), the ensemble celebrates opening night at Symphony Hall on September 22 with a program featuring the music of Lawrence, Mass.-born composer and conductor Leonard Bernstein, which is part of a season-long celebration of the music icon’s centennial. Nelsons’ duties continue September 23 as he conducts symphonic pieces by Franz Joseph Haydn and Gustav Mahler, ensuring a great start to an exciting season to please all classical music fans. SUDS AND SONGS Fans of flavorful and funky craft beer are sure to flock to City Hall Plaza on September 22 & 23 for the second annual Copenhagen Beer & Music Festival (refer to listing, page 19). Consisting of three sessions, the sudsy, Denmark- inspired celebration boasts special concoctions produced by more than 50 breweries from both near and far, including those of local purveyors Night Shift, Trillium and Lord Hobo. Not to forget the music half of the fest, Danish surf rockers The Tremolo Beer Gut perform along with several Boston-based artists. And to top it all off, expect plenty of great grub from some of the city’s finest vendors.

  • The First Critical Assessments of a Streetcar Named Desire: the Streetcar Tryouts and the Reviewers
    FALL 1991 45 The First Critical Assessments of A Streetcar Named Desire: The Streetcar Tryouts and the Reviewers Philip C. Kolin The first review of A Streetcar Named Desire in a New York City paper was not of the Broadway premiere of Williams's play on December 3, 1947, but of the world premiere in New Haven on October 30, 1947. Writing in Variety for November 5, 1947, Bone found Streetcar "a mixture of seduction, sordid revelations and incidental perversion which will be revolting to certain playgoers but devoured with avidity by others. Latter category will predomin­ ate." Continuing his predictions, he asserted that Streetcar was "important theatre" and that it would be one "trolley that should ring up plenty of fares on Broadway" ("Plays Out of Town"). Like Bone, almost everyone else interested in the history of Streetcar has looked forward to the play's reception on Broadway. Yet one of the most important chapters in Streetcar's stage history has been neglected, that is, the play's tryouts before that momentous Broadway debut. Oddly enough, bibliographies of Williams fail to include many of the Streetcar tryout reviews and surveys of the critical reception of the play commence with the pronouncements found in the New York Theatre Critics' Reviews for the week of December 3, 1947. Such neglect is unfortunate. Streetcar was performed more than a full month and in three different cities before it ever arrived on Broadway. Not only was the play new, so was its producer. Making her debut as a producer with Streetcar, Irene Selznick was one of the powerhouses behind the play.

During this period, jazz was presented in a variety of ways in different venues, on four of which I focus: New Orleans-style jazz commonly performed for the same audiences in Rhythm Clubs and in concert halls (as shown by George Webb’s Dixielanders at the Red Barn public house and the King’s Hall); clubs hosting different styles of jazz on different nights of the week that brought in different audiences (such as the 100 Club on Oxford Street); clubs with a fixed stylistic ideology that changed venue, taking a regular fan base and musicians to different locations (such as Ronnie Scott’s Jazz Club); and jazz in theatres (such as the Little Theatre Club and Mike West- brook’s compositions for performance in the Mermaid Theatre).
