Chunga 12 I Learned That Mike Glicksohn and It Is a Pleasure to See Them Again 13 s e p t e m b e r 2 0 0 7 “But wouldn’t it be cheaper just to use a man in a suit?” Chunga is a darkened theater where Lee Hoffman and Ron Bennett sit in the middle third row. Rich brown leans forward in the row behind them, and he won’t stop talking. Other fans are expected, and all three look over their shoulders in anticipation. In the projection booth, Bob Tucker is pouring shots from a green-labeled bottle. One for each reel change — two cartoons, a news reel, the serial chapter, the A picture, and the B picture. A pleasant odor of bourbon and popcorn fills the darkness as he throws the switch. Available by editorial whim or wistfulness, or, grudgingly, for $3.50 for a single issue; PDFs of every issue may be found at eFanzines.com.

Introduction Woodrow Wilson Guthrie (1912–67) was a singer, musician, composer, author, artist, radio personality, columnist, activist, and philosopher. By now, most anyone with interest knows the shorthand version of his biography: refugee from the Oklahoma dust bowl, California radio show performer, New York City socialist, musical documentarian of the Northwest, merchant marine, and finally decline and death from Huntington’s chorea.

  • Lyric Opera of Kansas City's Inaugural Explorations Series Continues with Elvis Costello's the Juliet Letters
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: Ellen McDonald (816) 444-0052 Or (816) 213-4355 (c) [email protected] For Tickets: kcopera.org or 816.471.7344 Lyric Opera of Kansas City’s Inaugural Explorations Series Continues with Elvis Costello’s The Juliet Letters Powerful and Moving Song Cycle at the Michael and Ginger Frost Production Arts Building Jan. 28-29 Kansas City, MO (Jan. 9, 2017) – The inaugural Explorations series continues with Elvis Costello’s The Juliet Letters, Jan. 28 and 29 at the Michael and Ginger Frost Production Arts Building at the Richard J. Stern Opera Center. Explorations features eclectic programs in intimate spaces, with programming that crosses musical borders and experiments with a wide range of lyrical expression. Elvis Costello’s The Juliet Letters was written in 1992 and recorded by the artist himself, together with the Brodsky Quartet. A set of 20 songs for voice and string quartet, including a few quartet- only interludes, they had an unusual inspiration: Costello heard that the lovelorn actually write letters to Shakespeare’s Juliet and leave them at her supposed ‘balcony’ in Verona, Italy. Costello came up with his own stylized "letters" and set them to music, using the idea as a platform for the exploration of young love. Musically the material lies somewhere between that of his pop albums and his Shakespearean orchestral ballet Il Sogno of 2004, a more purely "classical" work. Elvis Costello’s emotional and poignant renderings of some of these letters became the song cycle The Juliet Letters. Music and lyric contributions also from Michael Thomas, Jacqueline Thomas, Ian Derek Bolton, Paul Cassidy and Declan MacManus (Elvis Costello).

Short of grabbing the freebies put together by a group of volunteers (always an iffy proposal as to quality) you could easily spend a buck or more per title on this grouping if purchased separately, or save yourself the time, trouble and expense by grabbing this collection of classics with both an active table of contents and a nifty image gallery including first edition title pages, fine engravings, author portraits and more.

  • Dictionary of Westerns in Cinema
    PERFORMING ARTS • FILM HISTORICAL DICTIONARY OF Historical Dictionaries of Literature and the Arts, No. 26 VARNER When early filmgoers watched The Great Train Robbery in 1903, many shrieked in terror at the very last clip, when one of the outlaws turned toward the camera and seemingly fired a gun directly at the audience. The puff of WESTERNS smoke was sudden and hand-colored, and it looked real. Today we can look back at that primitive movie and see all the elements of what would evolve HISTORICAL into the Western genre. Perhaps the Western’s early origins—The Great Train DICTIONARY OF Robbery was the first narrative, commercial movie—or its formulaic yet enter- WESTERNS in Cinema taining structure has made the genre so popular. And with the recent success of films like 3:10 to Yuma and The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford, the Western appears to be in no danger of disappearing. The story of the Western is told in this Historical Dictionary of Westerns in Cinema through a chronology, a bibliography, an introductory essay, and hundreds of cross-referenced dictionary entries on cinematographers; com- posers; producers; films like Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, Dances with Wolves, The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly, High Noon, The Magnificent Seven, The Searchers, Tombstone, and Unforgiven; actors such as Gene Autry, in Cinema Cinema Kirk Douglas, Clint Eastwood, Henry Fonda, Jimmy Stewart, and John Wayne; and directors like John Ford and Sergio Leone.

Sandown Canoe Lake By Dave Bambrough (Part one) Development of the ground east of the Old Coastguard Station in Culver Road had begun with the opening of Sandham Grounds in 1924. It had transformed part of this area from a wilderness into an array of beauty. Further enhancement was about to be constructed by private enterprise by way of a boating lake, right next door to the Grounds. Rumours of a Canoe Lake for Sandown were rife in the year of 1928. The success of similar ventures at Ryde and Southsea had strengthened the claims of those responsible for providing more entertainment for the visiting children to the Island. The majority of these came from London between Easter and the beginning of July, which greatly helped the local economy over this rather quiet period. Competition from Shanklin had been strengthened that year with the opening of Fairy Court House, which had been presented to the School Journey Association specifically for the use as a hostel for visiting children from London. The selected site for the boating lake was 5 acres of land owned by the War Department adjoining the Sandham Grounds. A meeting was convened between the Chairman of the General Purposes Committee (Mr A.J. Harman), the Chairman of the Sandham Grounds Committee (Mr A. Dutton), with their surveyor and representatives of the promoters of the Canoe Lake. This it was hoped would broker an agreement for submission to the council of the filling in of a ditch that separated the two ventures, the carrying off of the water and a connecting entrance between the two concerns.
