    MEDIA RELEASE WICKED is coming to Australia. The hottest musical in the world will open in Melbourne’s Regent Theatre in July 2008. With combined box office sales of $US 1/2 billion, WICKED is already one of the most successful shows in theatre history. WICKED opened on Broadway in October 2003. Since then over two and a half million people have seen WICKED in New York and just over another two million have seen the North American touring production. The smash-hit musical with music and lyrics by Stephen Schwartz (Godspell, Pippin, Academy Award-winner for Pocahontas and The Prince of Egypt) and book by Winnie Holzman (My So Called Life, Once And Again and thirtysomething) is based on the best-selling novel by Gregory Maguire. WICKED is produced by Marc Platt, Universal Pictures, The Araca Group, Jon B. Platt and David Stone. ‘We’re delighted that Melbourne is now set to follow WICKED productions in New York, Chicago, Los Angeles, the North American tour and London’s West End,’ Marc Platt and David Stone said in a joint statement from New York. ‘Melbourne will join new productions springing up around the world over the next 16 months, and we’re absolutely sure that Aussies – and international visitors to Melbourne – will be just as enchanted by WICKED as the audiences are in America and England.’ WICKED will premiere in Tokyo in June; Stuttgart in November; Melbourne in July 2008; and Amsterdam in 2008. Winner of 15 major awards including the Grammy Award and three Tony Awards, WICKED is the untold story of the witches of Oz.

  • New Online Effort Launched to Stop Violence Against Women Abroad
    Press Release – For Immediate Release August 12, 2005 For More Information Contact: Cathy Renna, Fenton Communications, 212-584-5000, [email protected] New Online Effort Launched to Stop Violence Against Women Abroad Eve Ensler, Kathryn Wolford, Zainab Salbi, Christine Grumm and Others Write for www.uswomenwithoutborders.org to Influence U.S. Foreign Policy and the Media SAN FRANCISCO – Motivated by the fight of women and girls across the world to secure their rights, and hoping to build a voice of American women equipped to influence U.S. foreign policy and media, the Women’s Funding Network launched US Women Without Borders (www.uswomenwithoutborders.org) this month. U.S. Women Without Borders, is designed to help stop violence against women by shining a spotlight on the media and Washington to make sure that the impact of war, legal rights, immigration and other major social forces on violence against women’s and girls’ issues are not overlooked. “Our research confirms what we’ve known all along, women in the US have a tremendous desire to support the courageous fights by women around the world to end violence. But, until now, we’ve had little access to opportunities to make a difference. US women want to connect with women internationally and now we have a powerful tool to exercise our voices in support of their struggles,” said Chris Grumm, President of the Women’s Funding Network. Today on the website, Eve Ensler, creator of the Vagina Monologues and founder of V-Day, writes from Cairo about the opening of Bayat Hawa; the first shelter in Egypt for battered women.

    Rancho Mastatal Updates January 2005 The Ranch is bustling at the moment with a group of amazing, motivated and fascinating volunteers. Their skills range from carpentry, natural healing, writing, massage therapy, painting and even cake eating. With such a great work force at our disposal, we are continuing to move forward on many fronts. We are making great headway on the new composting toilet and shower structure highlighted by our first foray into waddle and daub. We’ve mixed up our first batch of lime putty, the base for future plasters and natural Toucan Portrait, an oil pastel piece by Delfino Cornali photo by Delfino Cornali paints and renders. Robin has a beautifully improved window and a new shelving unit and baseboards in her soon-to-be studio. The workbench is soon to follow and will pave the way for some beautiful stone and silver pieces made by the skilled hands of our matriarch. We have a new back door over at Jeanne’s house and even the solar cooker has been getting some much-needed attention. Everything is more or less status quo in the community, although Marcelo is currently in the hospital with a yet to be defined sickness. Please send him and his family some good energy and love. We’re looking forward to the upcoming renewable energy workshop and our first university group visit of the year. The weather’s been gorgeous. We’ve even been getting some unexpected but much welcome rains, helping keep everything green. As always, we’re looking forward to see many of you down here in the coming months.

Social Mobility and the Class Chameleon in Th... http://www.lib.latrobe.edu.au/ojs/index.php/tlg/article/view/45/22 The Looking Glass : New Perspectives on Children's Literature, Vol 11, No 1 (2007) HOME ABOUT LOG IN REGISTER SEARCH CURRENT ARCHIVES ANNOUNCEMENTS Home > Vol 11, No 1 (2007) > Bullen Font Size: Alice's Academy Who is Ryan Atwood? Social Mobility and the Class Chameleon in The OC Elizabeth Bullen Elizabeth Bullen lectures in Literary Studies at Deakin University's Warrnambool campus. She is currently a co-researcher on a research project on representations of social class in recent children's literature and the implications for citizenship. In the first season of the Fox television series, The OC (2003–2004), a teenager from the wrong side of the tracks finds himself in wealthy Newport Beach, Orange County — the OC of the title. Rescued from an implied future of juvenile delinquency, 16-year-old Ryan Atwood is at first perceived to be a threat to this world of luxury, ostentation and conspicuous consumption. Over the course of the season, Ryan is able to win the heart of rich girl-next-door, the troubled Marissa Cooper, and, it seems, transcend his class origins. According to Tim Goodman, the plotline of creator Josh Schwartz's series distinguishes it from earlier teen dramas like Beverley Hills 90210 and Dawson's Creek and avoids the clichés of the genre. In many respects, however, Ryan is living another cliché, the American Dream, his social ascendency suggesting that success is possible regardless of one's start in life.
