In this ground-breaking book, Derek B. Scott examines the cultural transfer of operetta from the German stage to Britain and the USA and offers a historical and critical survey of these operettas and their music. In the period 1900–1940, over sixty operettas were produced in the West End, and over seventy on Broadway. A study of these stage works is important for the light they shine on a variety of social topics of the period – from modernity and gender relations to new technology and new media – and these are investigated in the individual chapters. This book is also available as Open Access on Cambridge Core at doi.org/10.1017/9781108614306. derek b. scott is Professor of Critical Musicology at the University of Leeds.

    THE THEATRICAL HISTORY OF WICHITA, KANSAS ' I 1872 - 1920 by Patricia Ann Mather A.B., University __of Wichita, 1945 Submitted to the Department of Speech and Drama and the Faculty of the Graduate School of the University of Kansas in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts. Redacted Signature Instructor in charf;& Redacted Signature Sept ember, 19 50 'For tne department PREFACE In the following thesis the author has attempted to give a general,. and when deemed.essential, a specific picture of the theatre in early day Wichita. By "theatre" is meant a.11 that passed for stage entertainment in the halls and shm1 houses in the city• s infancy, principally during the 70' s and 80 1 s when the city was still very young,: up to the hey-day of the legitimate theatre which reached. its peak in the 90' s and the first ~ decade of the new century. The author has not only tried to give an over- all picture of the theatre in early day Wichita, but has attempted to show that the plays presented in the theatres of Wichita were representative of the plays and stage performances throughout the country. The years included in the research were from 1872 to 1920. There were several factors which governed the choice of these dates. First, in 1872 the city was incorporated, and in that year the first edition of the Wichita Eagle was printed. Second, after 1920 a great change began taking place in the-theatre. There were various reasons for this change.

  • 1986 News-Caster (Top of Page 55)
    THE CASTOR FAMILY ASSOCIATION OF AMERICA FAMILY ORIGINS We have started our newsletter each year with this article. It is a good intro- duction. We believe it is worth repeating for the benefit of the new members. Some updating occurs. There are several different origins of the Caster/Castor/Kaster/Kastor families. Some came to this country as Caster, Castor, Kaster or Kastor; and some came as something entirely different. For example, in 1736, Hans Georg Gerster and his wife, Eve Gisin, arrived in Philadelphia aboard the ship Princess Agusta which had come from Cowes, Isle of Wight, England. Hans was born 1710 in Basel, Switzerland. Hans and Eve married in 1735, and after their arrival in this country, they had a family of eight. Although their surname was Gerster, it was soon pronounced Gaster or Garster in this country, and was corrupted into Caster or Castor. By 1762, Hans had become John George Castor, and more frequently, George Castor. Most of his descendants carry the surname Castor, although some are Caster. Other Gerster families came to America in 1748, 1749, 1768, 1803, 1804 and 1805, and most of their descendants are today either Caster or Castor. And then there was John de Castorer who was born 1748 in New London, Connecticut. John married 1770 Anna Calkins, and they lived near Spencertown, New Your from where John enlisted in 1776 for the Revolutionary War. After the war, they moved to Redfield, New York, and later to Ellisburg, New York. Their surname shortened to Caster, and their nine children were styled either Caster or Castor.

    Jean Knauf LLaa CCoommééddiiee--FFrraannççaaiissee 11994411 Programme de Feu la Mère de Madame de Georges Feydeau, mise en scène de Fernand Ledoux, 27 octobre 1941 - © Comédie-Française 1 2 Avant-propos Jacques Copeau, agréé par le gouvernement de Vichy, est révoqué par les autorités allemandes. Il quitte l’administration du théâtre le 7 janvier 1941. Marie-Agnès Joubert conclut assez justement : « L’administration de Jacques Copeau ne fut finalement qu’une parenthèse, aussi bien dans l’histoire du Théâtre-Français que dans la carrière de l’intéressé. Les ouvrages consacrés à Copeau demeurent d’ailleurs étrangement discrets sur cet épisode de sa vie. En janvier 1941, acteurs et témoins de cette aventure sans lendemain souhaitèrent tourner la page au plus vite. Jacques Copeau reprit le chemin de Pernand-Vergelesses … »1 Léon Lamblin, sous-secrétaire d’Etat aux Beaux-Arts, le remplace entre le 13 janvier et le 2 mars 1941. Directeur du Musée Carnavalet et responsable des matinées poétiques, Jean- Louis Vaudoyer est nommé administrateur à compter du 4 mars 1941. Grand ami d’Edouard Bourdet, Vaudoyer n’est ni un auteur de théâtre, ni un artisan de la scène, c’est un homme de grande culture, amateur d’art et de poésie. Il prend la direction de la maison à un des pires moments de son histoire. La troupe a perdu Yonnel – qui rentrera en octobre après que le Commissariat aux questions juives eût déclaré qu’il ne pouvait être considéré comme juif, Béatrice Bretty dont Jérôme Carcopino 2 exige la mise à la retraite, Véra Korène, Robert Manuel, Henri Echourin, Henri-Paul Bonifas doivent quitter la Société en application des lois de Vichy… La Société se trouve ainsi privée d’éléments importants dans la tragédie comme dans la comédie.
