  • The Seven Ages of Musical Theatre: the Life Cycle of the Child Performer
    UNIVERSITY OF SOUTHAMPTON The Seven Ages of Musical Theatre: The life cycle of the child performer by Lyndsay Barnbrook A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Humanities Faculty School of Music April 2016 \A person's a person, no matter how small." Dr. Seuss UNIVERSITY OF SOUTHAMPTON Abstract Humanities Faculty School of Music Doctor of Philosophy The Seven Ages of Musical Theatre: The life cycle of the child performer by Lyndsay Barnbrook The purpose of the research reported here is to explore the part played by children in musical theatre. It aims to do this on two levels. It presents, for the first time, an historical analysis of involvement of children in theatre from its earliest beginnings to the current date. It is clear from this analysis that the role children played in the evolution of theatre has been both substantial and influential, with evidence of a number of recurring themes. Children have invariably made strong contributions in terms of music, dance and spectacle, and have been especially prominent in musical comedy. Playwrights have exploited precocity for comedic purposes, innocence to deliver difficult political messages in a way that is deemed acceptable by theatre audiences, and youth, recognising the emotional leverage to be obtained by appealing to more primitive instincts, notably sentimentality and, more contentiously, prurience. Every age has had its child prodigies and it is they who tend to make the headlines. However the influence of educators and entrepreneurs, artistically and commercially, is often underestimated. Although figures such as Wescott, Henslowe and Harris have been recognised by historians, some of the more recent architects of musical theatre, like Noreen Bush, are largely unheard of outside the theatre community.

  • 1/137 Research Report 1997-1999 One of the Vital Activities of Any National Museum Is Research. the Myriad Public Functions of A
    Research Report 1997-1999 One of the vital activities of any national museum is research. The myriad public functions of a modern museum are dependent on sound knowledge of the objects in the museum's care. Research allows the Victoria and Albert Museum to play a role with the creative industries; it underpins education programmes that render the collections meaningful to school children, students and distance learners; it enables the giving of pleasure to a mass audience. Scholarship, alongside collections management and conservation, guarantees the continued prosperity of the nation's heritage. This report covers a three-year period in which hundreds of exhibitions, books, journal articles and electronic publications have made available a vast amount of scholarly material. Victoria and Albert Museum specialists on the art and design of the last thousand years, across all continents, have continuously published ground-breaking research in significant quantities. Apart from the individual efforts of the Museum's major scholars, perhaps a particularly impressive aspect of the research effort in this period has been the collaborative projects undertaken with universities and museums in Britain and abroad. They include topics as varied as Gothic art, historic tapestries, Anglo-Indian furniture, the Victorians, modern product design and electronic media. As research becomes more interdisciplinary, and technology becomes more central, so the methods of research progress. This report shows that a powerful and varied research culture remains one of the distinguishing characteristics of the V&A. It reports on the last years of the 20th century. I think we can all be assured that the research effort will continue and will enlighten the new century as much as it did the old one.

  • Palgrave Studies in Theatre and Performance History Is a Series
    Palgrave Studies in Theatre and Performance History is a series devoted to the best of theatre/performance scholarship currently available, accessible, and free of jargon. It strives to include a wide range of topics, from the more traditional to those performance forms that in recent years have helped broaden the understanding of what theatre as a category might include (from variety forms as diverse as the circus and burlesque to street buskers, stage magic, and musical theatre, among many others). Although historical, critical, or analytical studies are of special interest, more theoreti- cal projects, if not the dominant thrust of a study, but utilized as important underpin- ning or as a historiographical or analytical method of exploration, are also of interest. Textual studies of drama or other types of less traditional performance texts are also germane to the series if placed in their cultural, historical, social, or political and eco- nomic context. There is no geographical focus for this series and works of excellence of a diverse and international nature, including comparative studies, are sought. The editor of the series is Don B. Wilmeth (EMERITUS, Brown University), PhD, University of Illinois, who brings to the series over a dozen years as editor of a book series on American theatre and drama, in addition to his own extensive experience as an editor of books and journals. He is the author of several award-winning books and has received numerous career achievement awards, including one for sustained excel- lence in editing

  • University Microfilms International
    INFORMATION TO USERS This reproduction was made from a copy of a document sent to us for microfilming. While the most advanced technology has been used to photograph and reproduce this document, the quality of the reproduction is heavily dependent upon the quality of the material submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help clarify markings or notations which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or “target” for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is “Missing Page(s)”. If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting througli an image and duplicating adjacent pages to assure complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a round black mark, it is an indication of either blurred copy because of movement during exposure, duplicate copy, or copyrighted materials that should not have been filmed. For blurred pages, a good image of the page can be found in the adjacent frame. If copyrighted materials were deleted, a target note will appear listing the pages in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., is part of the material being photographed, a definite method of “sectioning” the material has been followed. It is customary to begin filming at the upper left hand comer of a large sheet and to continue from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. If necessary, sectioning is continued again-beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete.

  • The Museum of Television & Radio
    The Museum of Television & Radio The Museum of Television & Radio Page 15 LL32 Ia. The Museum of Television & RadioIStatement of Purpose and Procedures The Museum of Television & Radio is a national, nonprofit, educational organization founded by William S. Paley in 1975 to collect, preserve, and interpret television and radio programming and advertisements, and to make them available to the public. The Museum opened its doors on November 9, 1976, as Theon three floors of a converted office building at 1 East 53 Street in New York City. In 1991, the Museum's Board of Trustees renamed the institution The Museum of Television & Radio to reflect more accurately the addition of programs beyond those that are broadcast, to those transmitted by other methods such as cable and satellite. On September 12, 1991, the Museum moved into the William S. Paley Building (located at 25 West 52 Street in New York), named after its founder and designed by Philip Johnson. On March 18, 1996, The Museum of Television & Radio in Los Angeles opened to the public. Named the Leonard H. Goldenson Building, the Museum is located at 465 North Beverly Drive, Beverly Hills, California. The Los Angeles facility was designed by Richard Meier. The Museum is, therefore, one museum with two locations. The Museum's Collection now includes more than 80,000 television and radio programs and advertisements chosen by an experienced curatorial staff for their artistic, cultural, and historical significance. The Collection covers more than seventy-five years of television and radio history and includes news, public affairs, documentary, performing arts, children's, drama, sports, and comedy programs and advertising.
