  • Acting in the Academy
    Acting in the Academy There are over 150 BFA and MFA acting programs in the US today, nearly all of which claim to prepare students for theatre careers. Peter Zazzali contends that these curricula represent an ethos that is outdated and limited given today’s shrinking job market for stage actors. Acting in the Academy traces the history of actor training in universities to make the case for a move beyond standard courses in voice and speech, move- ment, or performance, to develop an entrepreneurial model that motivates and encourages students to create their own employment opportunities. This book answers questions such as: • How has the League of Professional Theatre Training Programs shaped actor training in the US? • How have training programs and the acting profession developed in relation to one another? • What impact have these developments had on American acting as an art form? Acting in the Academy calls for a reconceptualization of actor training in the US, and looks to newly empower students of performance with a fresh, original perspective on their professional development. Peter Zazzali is Assistant Professor of Theatre at the University of Kansas.

    Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} Especially Dogs Especially at Stillmeadow by Gladys Taber Especially Dogs: Especially at Stillmeadow by Gladys Taber. T raffic jams. Scheduled activities. Long work days. Electronic distractions. Political debates. The modern world rushes on. Some recent books and magazines buck this trend, urging the practices of mindfulness, of the Danish concept of hygge , of meditation, of yoga. Care for your inner life, not to mention a natural one as well! Writer Richard Louv states today's children—and a growing number of adults—suffer from "nature deficit disorder," that we have lost touch with our natural life in favor of a virtual one, detrimental to our physical and psychological health. Perhaps surprisingly, this is not a new worry. 1930s city dwellers, especially those in New York City, feared the effects of urban living on health and children. They worried their kids were growing pale and suffering from Vitamin D deficiencies; they themselves longed for scents of grass and trees again rather than exhaust and asphalt. With even the least bit of disposable cash, city dwellers would buy an old farmhouse in Connecticut for weekend visits and summer months or invest more in a new suburban home on a commuter rail line so men and women could travel to work by day and come home to fresh sweet air at night, spending all-to-short weekends fixing up the home, mowing the lawn, having outdoor barbecues, while the children played freely in grassy backyards and explored creeks and nearby woods. Nor did this feeling diminish; in 1941 Kate Seredy planted an apartment-living city family on a Catskill farm in The Open Gate where the entire family flourished, and several sitcoms from the 1950s, including The Danny Thomas Show and I Love Lucy , showed the protagonists buying a country home in Connecticut or upstate New York.

The convention in Kansas City, Missouri, November 12-14, seta new attendance record and saw award presentations, speakers, contests and business culminate a year of work. But the work began at the local chapter level . That's where the concept of binding together hands-on experience, leadership development and classroom instruction really proves itself. Whether it's competing in the chapter public speaking contest, starting an agricultural proficiency project or running for a Creenhand office, FFA members are building skills useful to America and its agriculture. The 53rd National FFA Convention was a climax for some — the finale of an FFA career. For others, it was just a beginning — the motivational force to do and achieve.
