    Volume XV Issue 3 The Horace Mann Theatre Company's Tri-Annual Publication Spring 2012 April 26, 27, & 28 2012 Cover Art by Jean Mariano (‘12) 2 Off icers Notes FROM: Thespian Editors Gamblers, showgirls, drunks, preaching “mission dolls,” and Mindy’s cheesecake (or was it stru- del?). What a way to end the year. All the way back in May 2011, we were so excited to hear that the HMTC would perform Frank Loesser’s Guys and Dolls. The show has fun dancing, a hilarious book, memorable lyrics, and exceptional music. The slapstick comedy and larger-than-life characters translate well into high school theatre, allowing students to step out of their comfort zones whether they’re singing, dancing, acting, or design- ing. It’s a classic. But there’s something more about Guys and Dolls. Maybe it’s the famous Brooklyn accents. Maybe it’s the homage to a fairytale New York that existed somewhere between 1950 and our imaginations. Or maybe it’s the way sitting in the audience or even listening to the CD can immediately put a huge grin on our faces. Like Clark Field in spring or cotton candy, Guys and Dolls is just plain good. We’re hoping this issue of The Thespian, which of course focuses on Guys and Dolls, captures the musical’s essence of simple delight against a backdrop of American history. Explore the many iterations of Guys and Dolls – from 1950 to today! Check out our spotlight on our new musical director Bill Stanley! And fill out our hilarious crossword puzzle mixingG+D and HMTC trivia! As we wrap up our APs, SATs, and even our high school careers, we can’t think of a better way to launch into summer break than ripping open your Thes- pian and watching us shimmy and sneeze our way through Gross Theatre.

  • Rediscovering Me and Juliet and Pipe Dream , the Forgotten Musicals of Rodgers and Hammerstein
    ABSTRACT Title of Thesis: “WHO EXPECTS A MIRACLE TO HAPPEN EVERY DAY?”: REDISCOVERING ME AND JULIET AND PIPE DREAM , THE FORGOTTEN MUSICALS OF RODGERS AND HAMMERSTEIN Bradley Clayton Mariska, Master of Arts, 2004 Thesis directed by: Assistant Professor Jennifer DeLapp Department of Musicology Me and Juliet (1953) and Pipe Dream (1955) diverged considerably from Rodgers and Hammerstein’s influential and commercially successful 1940s musical plays. Me and Juliet was the team’s first musical comedy and had an original book by Hammerstein. Pipe Dream was based on a John Steinbeck novel and featured bums and prostitutes. This paper documents the history of Me and Juliet and Pipe Dream , using correspondence, early drafts of scripts, interviews with cast members, and secondary sources. I analyze the effectiveness of plot, music, and lyrics, while considering factors in each show’s production that may have led to their respective failures. To better understand reception, emphasis is placed upon each show’s relationship to the political and cultural landscape of 1950s America. Re-examining these musicals helps document the complete history of the Rodgers and Hammerstein collaboration and provides valuable insights regarding the duo’s social values and personal philosophies of musical theatre. “WHO EXPECTS A MIRACLE TO HAPPEN EVERY DAY?”: REDISCOVERING ME AND JULIET AND PIPE DREAM , THE FORGOTTEN MUSICALS OF RODGERS AND HAMMERSTEIN by Bradley Clayton Mariska Thesis submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of the University of Maryland, College Park in partial fulfillment of the requirement for the degree of Master of Arts 2004 Advisory Committee: Professor Jennifer DeLapp, Chair Professor Barbara Haggh-Huglo Professor Richard King © Copyright by Bradley Clayton Mariska 2004 To Grandma Bonnie, for The Sound of Music To my parents, for Joseph ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I am indebted to many individuals who have helped in the completion of this document.

  • The History of CBS New York Television Studios: 1937-1965
    1 The History of CBS New York Television Studios: 1937-1965 By Bobby Ellerbee and Eyes of a Generation.com Preface and Acknowledgements This is the first known chronological listing that details the CBS television studios in New York City. Included in this exclusive presentation by and for Eyes of a Generation, are the outside performance theaters and their conversion dates to CBS Television theaters. This compilation gives us the clearest and most concise guide yet to the production and technical operations of television’s early days and the efforts at CBS to pioneer the new medium. This story is told to the best of our abilities, as a great deal of the information on these facilities is now gone…like so many of the men and women who worked there. I’ve told this as concisely as possible, but some elements are dependent on the memories of those who were there many years ago, and from conclusions drawn from research. If you can add to this with facts or photos, please contact me, as this is an ongoing project. (First Revision: August 6, 2018). Eyes of a Generation would like to offer a huge thanks to the many past and present CBS people that helped, but most especially to television historian and author David Schwartz (GSN), and Gady Reinhold (CBS 1966 to present), for their first-hand knowledge, photos and help.
