The must-see hit of the recent Broadway season, Venus in Fur, written by theatrical mastermind David Ives opens in the Historic Asolo Theater Friday, April 5 and runs through April 28, 2013. Two preview performances are scheduled for April 3 and 4. Tea Alagić, an exciting new talent originally from the Czech Republic, directs this wickedly entertaining comedy that explores the complex relationship between an aspiring stage actress and her playwright/director. Venus in Fur is a hot ticket in every sense. This alluring tale of love, lust, and literature illuminates the ultimate battle of the sexes. Vanda is the far-from-typical young actress who arrives to audition for the lead in playwright Thomas’ adaptation of Leopold von Sacher-Masoch’s 1870 erotic novel, “Venus in Furs.” As her audition proceeds, Vanda’s continually shifting personas, accents, moods, expressions and apparent (and not-so-apparent) intentions engage Thomas in an emotionally charged game of cat and mouse. Is art imitating life? Or is it the other way around? As the lines between reality and fantasy become blurred the audience is swept up in Thomas’ seduction. The Broadway production made an instant star of its leading actress, Nina Arianda, who won the Tony Award for Best Actress in 2012.

  • 15! Phish—Comprised of Trey Anastasio on Guitar and Lead Vocals
    Phish—comprised of Trey Anastasio on guitar and lead vocals; Mike Gordon on bass and vocals; Page McConnell on piano, keyboards, and vocals; and Jon “Fish” Fishman on drums and vocals—formed at the University of Vermont (UVM) in the early ‘80s and became one of the most successful rock bands ever. Their success story is built upon a rare combination of raw talent, strategic business acumen, and various moments of rock and roll serendipity. An abbreviated synopsis of Phish’s formation helps to place their trajectory and subsequent press coverage in context. Recognized as the first Phish gig, Anastasio, Gordon, Fishman, and brief member Jeff Holdsworth played as Blackwood Convention at a UVM cafeteria on December 2, 1983. In late 1984, they adopted the name Phish, reportedly in homage to Fishman. Through this period in the early-‘80s they were also joined by brief member Marc “Daubs” Daubert on percussion and occasional guest Steve Pollack, “The Dude of Life.” In May, 1985, nearby Goddard College student Page McConnell joined the band for the first concert collaboration of what would eventually become the four constant Phish members. McConnell was invited to join the band permanently in September that year. In spring of 1986, Holdsworth graduated from UVM and left the band. With the departure of Holdsworth, Phish’s current four-member lineup emerged (Mockingbird, 2004, p. 5). Gehr (1998) explained that “Phish had covered several Dead tunes during their first couple of years together but soon dropped them to avoid the onus of being pigeonholed as yet another Dead cover band” (p.

  • Iago Parla Unamunda: Understanding a Nonsense Language
    Iago Parla Unamunda: Understanding a nonsense language By Emily Gasser Swarthmore College Abstract If you walked into a room and were greeted by an exclamation of “Velcro! Police, comintern. Harvardyu?”, how would you respond? Probably with a puzzled look, possibly followed by, “Fine thanks, and you?” Much research has been done in how the human mind understands a known language. But though nonsense languages have a rich literary history, there is much less written on how we understand and process nonsense languages, those for which there is little or no existing mental framework. This thesis explores how this sort of linguistic input might be processed and understood, focusing in particular the case of Unamunda, the nonsense language created by David Ives in his short play “The Universal Language” (1994). Unamunda consists of a combination of English words assigned new meanings, proper nouns (also assigned new meanings), plays on foreign words and phrases, and nonsense words. Its syntax is very nearly that of English, with occasional variations on word order. Though no one listening to Unamunda being spoken onstage has any prior familiarity with its lexicon or grammar, it is still possible to understand the utterances with little extra effort. After an overview of some theories and models of some various aspects of word recognition, including the effects of context on lexical decision-making, the clues to meaning supplied by syntactic structures, and phonotactic neighborhood activation, I move on to a discussion of my own experiment, in which subjects were asked to translate written, spoken, and video segments of Unamunda into English.* Introduction A guy goes into a restaurant, sits down, and orders Eggs Benedict.

  • THE NATURAL Her Director
    out for an Off Broadway production of a BACKSTAGE CHRONICLES new play by David Ives, “Venus in Fur,” the story of a fierce and funny psychosex- ual power struggle between an actress and THE NATURAL her director. Arianda had fallen in love with the heroine of the play, Vanda, an Nina Arianda: Broadway’s new star. aspiring actress, who—in a scenario fa- miliar to Arianda—arrives at a rehearsal BY JOHN LAHR hall to audition for a part she has no chance of getting. In Vanda’s case, it was a part in an adaptation of Leopold von Sacher-Masoch’s classic about the erotic forms of hate, “Venus in Furs.” “Am I too late? I’m too late, right? Fuck. Fuck!” Vanda says as she arrives onstage, hoping to read for the role of Vanda von Dunayev, an emancipated nineteenth-century Con- tinental woman. The dramatic pitch of Vanda’s opening line captured Arianda’s imagination. “I’d never read something and been so enthralled by where a charac- ter could go,” she told me recently. “The humor is what always gets me. The com- mitment she has to what she’s doing or saying. There’s no comment. She lives it.” The actress who plays Vanda is re- quired to metamorphose from a twenty- first-century street-smart New Yorker into the nineteenth-century European cosmopolitan of the Sacher-Masoch play- within-the-play, and even have the emo- tional extravagance to suggest the goddess Aphrodite, who emerges as a sort of fab- ulous eleven-o’clock number.
