America 2024 America2024: Playwrightson Our Country'sFuture With Jackie Sibblies Drury, Adam Rapp, and Celine Song Mon, Apr 22 at 7pm I 1hr 30min FishmanSpace, BAM Fisher A Programof T: The New YorkTimes Style Magazine Hostedby BAM In celebrationof its annual culture issue, T Magazine presents an evening of dramatic readings, hosted by BAM, which look five years into our country's future. Some of today's leading playwrights expound on the theme, America 2024, in myriad ways, from the utopian to the dystopian, the fantastical to the very real. This program comprises a series of dramatic readings of three commissioned plays, followed by a discussion with the respective playwrights moderated by Kurt Soller, articles editor of T Magazine. RUN OF PROGRAM Introductions Readingof "Various Pre-Apocalyptic Postcoital Scenes" by Jackie Sibblies Drury. Performed by Quincy Tyler Bernstine, Hannah Cabell, and Roslyn Ruff. Readingof "The Sand and the Snow" by Adarn Rapp. Performed by Jessica Hecht. Readingof "Adults" by Celine Song. Performed by Midori Francis and Annie McNamara. Conversationbetween Jackie Sibblies Drury, Adam Rapp, and Celine Song, moderated by Kurt Soller Questionsfrom the audience ABOUT THE ISSUE Great art has always emerged from tumultuous times. This isn't to say that peaceful eras (if there really are such things) inspire lesser or tepid art, but what is undeniable is that art thrives on unrest. T's Culture issue, on newsstands April 14, paid tribute to artists' inability to unquestioningly accept the society in which they live. For it, the editors asked 15 playwrights to imagine America five years into the future-in 2024-and published original commissions from the playwrights Jocelyn Bioh, Jackie Sibblies Drury, Jeremy 0. Harris, Naomi lizuka, Michael R. Jackson, Patricia lone Lloyd, Ted Malawer, Mona Mansour, Terrence McNally, Lynn Nottage, Adam Rapp, Paul Rudnick, Nassim Soleimanpour, Celine Song, and Sharr White. It's not a coincidence that we chose theater as the form of literature that best expressed the anxieties and hopes of the moment. As McNally, to whom this issue also pays tribute, tells Philip Galanes in an interview in the magazine, "If you want to change minds, write a great editorial for the Op-Ed page. But if you want to get people to feel differently, reach them through the theater." PLAYWRIGHTS JACKIE SIBBLIES DRURY is Brooklyn-based playwright whose plays include Fairview; Really; Social Creatures; We Are Proud to Present a Presentation About the Herera of Namibia, Formerly Known as South West Africa, From the German Sudwestafrika, Between the Years 1884-1915; and others. Her plays have been presented by LCT3, Soho Rep, Berkeley Rep, and Abrons Arts Center, among others, in collaboration with The Civilians, Manhattan Theatre Club, Ars Nova, New York Theatre Workshop, the Bushwick Starr, and others. She is the recipient of the Windham-Campbell Literary Prize and a United States Artists Fellowship. ADAM RAPP is the author of numerous plays, including Nocturne, Finer Noble Gases, Essential Self-Defense, The Purple Lights of Joppa Illinois, Red Light Winter, for which he won an Obie Award and was named a finalist for the 2006 Pulitzer Prize, and The Sound Inside. His playwriting honors include the Helen Merrill Prize, the Benjamin H. Danks Award, and the PEN/ Laura Pels International Foundation Award. Rapp is currently writing the book for the musical based on S.E. Hinton's novel The Outsiders, which will premiere at Chicago's Goodman Theatre.

  • Which Was All the Days of My Life (So Far) in 2004. in 2010
    ‘THE IRRESISTIBLE BLUEBERRY FARM' CAST BIOS ALISON SWEENEY (Ellen) – For Alison Sweeney, anything is possible. She’s a successful actress, TV host, producer, director and author who constantly inspire others with her balance of career with her focus on family, health and wellness. Sweeney is currently busy filming and producing TV movies for Hallmark Channel and Hallmark Movies & Mysteries.

Her additional projects for the channels have included four movies for the “Murder She Baked” franchise and “Love On The Air.” She’s also hosting several upcoming specials for the Food Network including the “Kids Halloween Baking Championship” on October 5. She is also bringing her Hollywood insider’s knowledge and keen sense of romance and fun to her novels. Her latest novel, Opportunity Knocks, was released in April 2016 and is from the perspective of a fledgling makeup artist. Her previous novels include Scared Scriptless, with a script supervisor as the lead, and The Star Attraction, based on the story of a publicist. New York Times best-selling author Jodi Picoult described Sweeney’s book as “Great fun for any reader who secretly sneaks peeks at People magazine in the checkout line at the grocery store, and wonders, What if…?” In addition to her fiction writing, Sweeney previously released two non-fiction books, the first of which was All The Days Of My Life (So Far) in 2004. In 2010, she released The Mommy Diet, where she revealed the “diet” of nutrition, fitness and self-care that women can follow to look and feel fantastic – before and during pregnancy, and after giving birth.

  • DGA's 2014-2015 Episodic Television Diversity Report Reveals
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE CONTACT: Lily Bedrossian August 25, 2015 (310) 289-5334 DGA’s 2014-2015 Episodic Television Diversity Report Reveals: Employer Hiring of Women Directors Shows Modest Improvement; Women and Minorities Continue to be Excluded In First-Time Hiring LOS ANGELES – The Directors Guild of America today released its annual report analyzing the ethnicity and gender of directors hired to direct primetime episodic television across broadcast, basic cable, premium cable, and high budget original content series made for the Internet. More than 3,900 episodes produced in the 2014- 2015 network television season and the 2014 cable television season from more than 270 scripted series were analyzed. The breakdown of those episodes by the gender and ethnicity of directors is as follows: Women directed 16% of all episodes, an increase from 14% the prior year. Minorities (male and female) directed 18% of all episodes, representing a 1% decrease over the prior year. Positive Trends The pie is getting bigger: There were 3,910 episodes in the 2014-2015 season -- a 10% increase in total episodes over the prior season’s 3,562 episodes. With that expansion came more directing jobs for women, who directed 620 total episodes representing a 22% year-over-year growth rate (women directed 509 episodes in the prior season), more than twice the 10% growth rate of total episodes. Additionally, the total number of individual women directors employed in episodic television grew 16% to 150 (up from 129 in the 2013-14 season). The DGA’s “Best Of” list – shows that hired women and minorities to direct at least 40% of episodes – increased 16% to 57 series (from 49 series in the 2013-14 season period).

  • History and Background
    History and Background Book by Lisa Kron, music by Jeanine Tesori Based on the graphic novel by Alison Bechdel SYNOPSIS Both refreshingly honest and wildly innovative, Fun Home is based on Vermont author Alison Bechdel’s acclaimed graphic memoir. As the show unfolds, meet Bechdel at three different life stages as she grows and grapples with her uniquely dysfunctional family, her sexuality, and her father’s secrets. ABOUT THE WRITERS LISA KRON was born and raised in Michigan. She is the daughter of Ann, a former community activist, and Walter, a German-born lawyer and Holocaust survivor. Kron spent much of her childhood feeling like an outsider because of her religion and sexuality. She attended Kalamazoo College before moving to New York in 1984, where she found success as both an actress and playwright. Many of Kron’s plays draw upon her childhood experiences. She earned early praise for her autobiographical plays 2.5 Minute Ride and 101 Humiliating Stories. In 1989, Kron co-founded the OBIE Award-winning theater company The Five Lesbian Brothers, a troupe that used humor to produce work from a feminist and lesbian perspective. Her play Well, which she both wrote and starred in, opened on Broadway in 2006. Kron was nominated for the Best Actress in a Play Tony Award for her work. JEANINE TESORI is the most honored female composer in musical theatre history. Upon receiving her degree in music from Barnard College, she worked as a musical theatre conductor before venturing into the art of composing in her 30s. She made her Broadway debut in 1995 when she composed the dance music for How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying, and found her first major success with the off- Broadway musical Violet (Obie Award, Lucille Lortel Award), which was later produced on Broadway in 2014.
