Production dates were from February 22 through March 4, 1995 in the Thurber Theatre of Drake Union. This theatre is a proscenium venue with continental seating for 624 persons. The proscenium opening is 36 feet wide by 22 feet high and has an apron that extends 11 feet in front of the plaster line. Formal production meeti n ss began October 4 with the director's concept statement, which was transmitted to the design team via fax by guest-director, Stephen Hollis of New York City. One telephone conference call including the scenic, costume, and lighting designers provided collaboration between the director and design team. Meetings between the scenic and lighting designer with the director took place in Cincinnati where the director had meetings regarding another project. The costume designer could not attend due to other projects. This Cincinnati meeting was dedicated to the refinement of the various scenic 3 4 design elements. The audition weekend, (November 18-19) provided opportunity for private meetings with the costume designer individually, and in conference with the other members of the design team. Final costume renderings and design concept were presented on January 3, 1995 without the director p resent. Construction of the costumes for the production began on January 17, with a scheduled build of five weeks. First dress rehearsal was set for February 17. Three more dress rehearsals were sched uled prior to the February 22 opening. The studio facility available for the construction process was above average. studio equipment included five Sernina 1006 domestic sewing machines, three industrial sewing machines, two domestic overlock machines, and two industrial steam irons. The cutting spaces consisted of three 45" by 72" tables with pin-receptive surfaces, providing ample spaces for patterning, layout, and cutting. A variety of male and female dress forms were available for draping and trial assemblies. A selection of bulk materials and notions, some lining fabrics, stock fashion fabrics, and a collection of trims were also at the designers disposal. The studio also contained a dye/laundry area with two sets of domestic washers and dryers and an industrial dye vat. A considerable stock of fabric dyes and modification supplies were available along with bulk craft and millinery supplies. 5 Existing wardrobe stock was a source of numerous garments for modification and provided entire costumes, in some instances. An assortment of period patterns served as a source for the needed pattern alterations. Rental and exchange policies with a variety of schools and theatres provided an additional source for selected items and some footwear needed to fulfi II the requi rements not accommodated by the costume inventory. The studio staff consisted of a full-time Studio Supervisor, two half-time Graduate Teaching Associates, one full-time professional stitcher, hired for a three-week period, two part-time work study stitchers and several undergraduate practicum students. The Graduate Teaching Associates and the two part-time work study stitchers were responsible for twenty hours of work per week. The practicum students worked an average of four hours per week. Tasks were distributed among the staff members according to their skill level and opportunities were made available to those desiring more of a challenge. The costume production budget was set at $3,000. This provided for fashion fabrics, linings, trims, accessories, footwear, wigs, and the post-production dry cleaning. This figure did not include the salaries of any of the staff members nor the cost of bulk supplies and notions. I l CHAPTER II THE COSTUME DESIGN CONCEPT In his director's concept statement, Stephen Hollis stated: "In the Restoration period, therefore, the theatre became almost exclusively a rendezvous of the fashionable class and their hangers on, the rakes, bullies, ladies of pleasure, and the young inns of court men whose principal reason for going to the theatre was to while away an afternoon, display one's new suit or arrange an assignation with one of the 'ladies of the town.' For this type of aud ience, a special ized type of drama was needed and very soon dramatists were offering plays which reflected the tastes and interests of this audience of courtiers, thus assuring at least some attention from the crowd....Wycherly has recorded the spurious good fellowship of those dandies whose greatest pleasure lay in bettering each other's epigrams and whose love affairs were conducted mainly for the sake of having experiences and conquests to brag about....Fine clothes covering stinking bodies, wigs and makeup covering ugliness and disease are a perfect meta­ phor for the plays of this period, in which sparkling wit and superficial behavior mask corruption and immorality. The 'comedy of manners' explores the conflict between the way people 'feel' and the way they 'behave.':" The presentational style of Restoration theatre, exhibited through the asides delivered to the audience and the obvious playing of the text as "theatre," allowed for the presentational desi gn choices used to 'Stephen Hollis.

  • 1,000 Films to See Before You Die Published in the Guardian, June 2007
    1,000 Films to See Before You Die Published in The Guardian, June 2007 http://film.guardian.co.uk/1000films/0,,2108487,00.html Ace in the Hole (Billy Wilder, 1951) Prescient satire on news manipulation, with Kirk Douglas as a washed-up hack making the most of a story that falls into his lap. One of Wilder's nastiest, most cynical efforts, who can say he wasn't actually soft-pedalling? He certainly thought it was the best film he'd ever made. Ace Ventura: Pet Detective (Tom Shadyac, 1994) A goofy detective turns town upside-down in search of a missing dolphin - any old plot would have done for oven-ready megastar Jim Carrey. A ski-jump hairdo, a zillion impersonations, making his bum "talk" - Ace Ventura showcases Jim Carrey's near-rapturous gifts for physical comedy long before he became encumbered by notions of serious acting. An Actor's Revenge (Kon Ichikawa, 1963) Prolific Japanese director Ichikawa scored a bulls-eye with this beautifully stylized potboiler that took its cues from traditional Kabuki theatre. It's all ballasted by a terrific double performance from Kazuo Hasegawa both as the female-impersonator who has sworn vengeance for the death of his parents, and the raucous thief who helps him. The Addiction (Abel Ferrara, 1995) Ferrara's comic-horror vision of modern urban vampires is an underrated masterpiece, full- throatedly bizarre and offensive. The vampire takes blood from the innocent mortal and creates another vampire, condemned to an eternity of addiction and despair. Ferrara's mob movie The Funeral, released at the same time, had a similar vision of violence and humiliation.

Of course, that was the aim of his magisterial scholarly work, and while unquestionably impressive, his tome turned out to be by no means the last word on the topic. Indeed over the intervening quarter century, quite to the contrary, we witnessed a continuously increasing outpouring of specialized political science, historical, philosophical, psychological, and other disciplinary studies with clearly ―no school of leadership‖with a single unifying theory emerging.

    FRAMING FEMININITY AS INSANITY: REPRESENTATIONS OF MENTAL ILLNESS IN WOMEN IN POST-CLASSICAL HOLLYWOOD Kelly Kretschmar, B.A. Thesis Prepared for the Degree of MASTER OF ARTS UNIVERSITY OF NORTH TEXAS May 2007 APPROVED: Harry M. Benshoff, Major Professor Sandra Larke-Walsh, Committee Member Debra Mollen, Committee Member Ben Levin, Program Coordinator Alan B. Albarran, Chair of the Department of Radio, Television and Film Sandra L. Terrell, Dean of the Robert B. Toulouse School of Graduate Studies Kretschmar, Kelly, Framing Femininity as Insanity: Representations of Mental Illness in Women in Post-Classical Hollywood. Master of Arts (Radio, Television, and Film), May 2007, 94 pp., references, 69 titles. From the socially conservative 1950s to the permissive 1970s, this project explores the ways in which insanity in women has been linked to their femininity and the expression or repression of their sexuality. An analysis of films from Hollywood’s post-classical period (The Three Faces of Eve (1957), Lizzie (1957), Lilith (1964), Repulsion (1965), Images (1972) and 3 Women (1977)) demonstrates the societal tendency to label a woman’s behavior as mad when it does not fit within the patriarchal mold of how a woman should behave. In addition to discussing the social changes and diagnostic trends in the mental health profession that define “appropriate” female behavior, each chapter also traces how the decline of the studio system and rise of the individual filmmaker impacted the films’ ideologies with regard to mental illness and femininity.
