PERFORMANCES MAGAZINE 3 Board of Directors As The Old Globe’s 2011-2012 Board Chair, I am privileged to address you in this space as you prepare to experience a performance of the extraordinarily high quality you expect from the Globe. You may laugh or cry, be stirred or disturbed, but throughout you will marvel at the magic of stagecraft. You will forget routine pressures and be transported to different worlds. If all goes well, you’ll emerge more empowered with understanding and a clearer fix on your place in the world. While you savor your experience, remember that the price you paid covered only about half the cost of delivering the Globe’s theatrical magic. The Globe is a not-for-profit organization. which means that all who enjoy our performances owe a profound debt to our generous donors who contribute over $5 million annually. And that doesn’t count much larger contributions over the years to construct theatres like the amazing Sheryl and Harvey White Theatre, which opened last year, that make our new Conrad Prebys Theatre Center the envy of other great theatre companies. Enjoy the performance and consider joining other patrons whose generosity will preserve and advance The Old Globe for many generations to come. Sincerely, Harold W.

    Being true to yourself never goes out of style! WINNER BEST NEW MUSICAL 2011 OLIVIER AWARD EDUCATION KIT AUSTRALIAN PREMIERE SEASON • SYDNEY LYRIC LegallyBlonde.com.au facebook.com/ legallyblondemusical @legallyblondeoz Legally Blonde: INTRODUCTION INTRODUCTION This teacher’s guide has been developed as a teaching tool to assist teachers who are bringing their students to see the show. This guide is based on Camp Broadway’s StageNOTES, conceived for the original Broadway musical adaptation of Amanda Brown’s 2001 novel and the film released that same year, and has been adapted for use within the UK and Australia. The Australian Education Pack is intended to offer some pathways into the production, and focuses on some of the topics covered in Legally Blonde which may interest students and teachers. It is not an exhaustive analysis of the musical or the production, but instead aims to offer a variety of stimuli for debate, discussion and practical exploration. It is anticipated that the Education Pack will be best utilised after a group of students have seen the production with their teacher, and can engage in an informed discussion based on a sound awareness of the musical. We hope that the information provided here will both enhance the live theatre experience and provide readers with information they may not otherwise have been able to access. Legally Blonde is an uplifting, energising, feel-good show and with that in mind we hope this pack will be enjoyed through equally energising and enjoyable practical work in the classroom and drama studio. 1 Legally Blonde: INTRODUCTION LEgally Blonde Education Pack CONTENTS PAGE INTODUCTION 1.

    Cassius Carter Centre Stage Darlene Gould Davies Cassius Carter Centre Stage, that old and trusted friend, is gone. The theatre in the round at The Old Globe complex in Balboa Park had its days, and they were glorious. Who can forget “Charlie’s Aunt” (1970 and 1977), or the hilarious 1986 pro- duction of “Beyond the Fringe”? Was there ever a show in the Carter that enchanted audiences more than “Spoon River Anthology” (1969)? A. R. Gurney’s “The Din- ing Room” (1983) was delightful. Craig Noel’s staging of Alan Ayckbourn’s ultra- comedic trilogy “The Norman Conquests” (1979) still brings chuckles to those who remember. San Diegans will remember the Carter. It was a life well lived. Cassius Carter Centre Stage, built in 1968 and opened in early 1969, was di- rectly linked to the original Old Globe Theatre of the 1935-36 California-Pacific International Exposition in Balboa Park. It was not a new building but a renovation of Falstaff Tavern that sat next to The Old Globe.1 In fact, until Armistead Carter Falstaff Tavern ©SDHS, UT #82:13052, Union-Tribune Collection.

    2017 3rd Annual International Conference on Modern Education and Social Science (MESS 2017) ISBN: 978-1-60595-450-9 Multiculturalism and Creative British South Asian Films Denise Tsang1,a,* and Dahlia Zawawi2,b 1Henley Business School, University of Reading, Whiteknights, Reading, UK 2Department of Management and Marketing, Universiti Putra Malaysia,Serdang, Malaysia [email protected], [email protected] *Corresponding author Keywords: Multiculturalism, Creativity, Competitiveness, British South Asian Films Abstract. Globalization has enabled countries such as the UK to attain multiculturalism; however, there is no investigation in relation to the advantages of multiculturalism at the film industry level. Multiculturalism is related to the Commonwealth immigration after the Second World War period. The introduction of new cultures into the UK has enabled the growth and development of successful global industries such as the British Urban Music and British Asian Film, which have prospered over time and have now become mainstream export-led industries. Why is cultural diversity significant towards the generation of competitive advantages within the British South Asian film sector? We will explore the country specific advantage of multiculturalism in the UK and their impact on creativity of screenwriters that has contributed to successful films in the industry. Introduction Multiculturalism has been defined by Libretti as a ‘careful attention to and respect for a diversity of cultural perspectives’ [1]. Berry explained the concept in terms of the maintenance of cultural heritage and the relationships sought among cultural groups as shown in the following figure [2]. Figure 1 shows that if a society enables individuals from cultural minority groups to maintain their cultural uniqueness while establishing relationships with the core cultural groups, multiculturalism is achieved.

  • The Irish Theme in the Writings of Bill Naughton by David Pierce York St John College
    Estudios Irlandeses, Number 0, 2005, pp. 102-116 _______________________________________________________________________________ AEDEI The Irish Theme in the Writings of Bill Naughton By David Pierce York St John College _____________________________________________________________________ Copyright (c) 2005 by David Pierce. This text may be archived and redistributed in electronic form, provided that the author and journal are properly cited and no fee is charged for access. Archiving, redistribution, or republication of this text on other terms, in any medium, requires the notification of the journal and consent of the author. __________________________________________________________________________________________ Abstract: The student interested in cultural assimilation, hybridity, and naturalization, in masculinity, authorship, and identity, in what happened to the Irish in Britain in the twentieth century, will turn at some point to the Mayo-born, Lancashire writer Bill Naughton (1910-1992), author of a classic children’s story collection The Goalkeeper’s Revenge and Other Stories (1961), of Alfie (1965), the film which helped define 1960s London, and of a series of autobiographies largely centering on his Irish childhood and upbringing in Bolton. It has been the historic role of Irish writers from Richard Brinsley Sheridan to Oscar Wilde, from Elizabeth Bowen to William Trevor, to give the English back to themselves in a gallery of portraits. Naughton is part of this tradition, but, unlike these other writers, his subject is the English working class, which he writes about from within, with both sympathy and knowledge. It can be readily conceded that his work is not at the forefront of modern English or Irish writing, but it does deserve to be better known and appreciated.

We are pleased to be addressing you jointly for the very first time as we launch a new chapter in the history of The Old Globe. We look forward to honoring and building upon this theatre’s cherished traditions by creating extraordinary theatre for you. DOUG GATES No Globe tradition is more beloved than our annual Managing Director Michael G. Murphy with recently appointed production of Dr. Seuss’ How the Grinch Stole Artistic Director Barry Edelstein. Christmas! We celebrate its 15th Anniversary this year, a milestone that would not have been possible without the support of one very special person. For more than three decades, Audrey Geisel has been close to the heart of The Old Globe, providing support through her kindness, warm smile, charming wit and great generosity. She is a champion of the arts in this community, serving as philanthropist, advocate and leader for many institutions. The production that you see today is on our stage thanks to Theodor Geisel’s creativity and Audrey’s vision and most sincere friendship. Tens of thousands of children have come to know live theatre through the Grinch, and we are grateful to Audrey that each year we are able to mount this production and introduce more young people to this magical art form. We are so proud that for the last 15 years, our audiences have made The Old Globe part of their holiday celebrations.
