[email protected] PRODUCTION DATES 19th June and 1st to 6th July, 2019 6 PRE AUDITION RUN THROUGH THE MUSIC – Tuesday 23rd October 2018 at 7.30 p.m. AUDITIONS – Tuesday 6th November 2018 at 7.30 p.m. Before writing great musicals such as “Oklahoma!”, “Carousel”, “The King and I” and “The Sound Of Music” in collaboration with lyricist Oscar Hammerstein 2nd, Richard Rodgers had a long collaboration with the lyricist Lorenz Hart and “Pal Joey” is the most famous of all the musicals they wrote together. A classic Broadway Musical originally starring Gene Kelly in the title role and subsequently adapted as a film starring Frank Sinatra, “Pal Joey” centres around Joey, an opportunistic cad who always seems to land on his feet. He elbows his way into a job at a seedy Chicago nightclub and is soon juggling the affections of a naïve shop girl and a wealthy society dame who just happens to be married. The resultant story is full of wonderful music and foot tapping dance routines with songs such as “If They Asked Me I Could Write A Book” and “Bewitched, Bothered and Bewildered”. Set A composite set depicting a nightclub with all other scenes set within. The set will be on two levels with elaborate stairs which should light up! Costumes 1930’s – many of which will be available from the DAG wardrobe but it will be necessary to hire elaborate costumes for the Cabaret Girls. Properties Nothing out of the ordinary. Mostly drinks items but an old till will be required for the Clothes Shop scene. Lighting Extensive plot involving large number of cues as required by most musicals. Sound Full stage sound required including radio mics. CHARACTERS AND AUDITION PIECES The character ages listed below are ‘Acting Ages’ not the age of the performer.

    Hart, Lorenz (1895-1943) Lorenz Hart (standing, by Raymond-Jean Frontain right) with Richard Rodgers in 1936. Encyclopedia Copyright © 2015, glbtq, Inc. Library of Congress Prints and Photographs Entry Copyright © 2002, glbtq, Inc. Division. Reprinted from http://www.glbtq.com Barely five feet tall, balding early, and possessing a disproportionately large head, Larry Hart was the first to disparage his own attractiveness. His jokes, however, masked a deeply-rooted inability to accept the possibility of romantic happiness or sexual gratification. Hart impulsively proposed marriage to several women friends, none of whom thought his offer serious. And when he allowed himself to act upon his desire for other men, he seems to have had difficulty performing sexually. (Biographer Frederick Nolan quotes one unidentified male partner's shock at discovering Hart cowering in the bedroom closet after sex, suggesting that the songwriter was unable actively to pursue homosexual pleasure without being overcome by guilt.) The result of such emotional imbroglio is that, despite having written lyrics as witty as any sung on the Broadway stage before or since, Hart is best remembered for his songs of unfulfilled desire and failed romance. Born Lorenz Milton Hart on May 2, 1895, to an immigrant Jewish family, Hart learned from his entrepreneur father that self-assertion allows survival. Never without a business venture, many of which were dishonest, Hart's father provided Larry with a lasting model for the cycles of impulsive free-spending and resulting impecuniosity that characterized Hart's own life. Hart entertained both friends and strangers lavishly, often living far beyond his means, but with a (sometimes unfounded) optimism that something would turn up.

  • South Pacific
    THE MUSICO-DRAMATIC EVOLUTION OF RODGERS AND HAMMERSTEIN’S SOUTH PACIFIC DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By James A. Lovensheimer, M.A. ***** The Ohio State University 2003 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor Arved Ashby, Adviser Professor Charles M. Atkinson ________________________ Adviser Professor Lois Rosow School of Music Graduate Program ABSTRACT Since its opening in 1949, Rodgers and Hammerstein’s Pulitzer Prize- winning musical South Pacific has been regarded as a masterpiece of the genre. Frequently revived, filmed for commercial release in 1958, and filmed again for television in 2000, it has reached audiences in the millions. It is based on selected stories from James A. Michener’s book, Tales of the South Pacific, also a Pulitzer Prize winner; the plots of these stories, and the musical, explore ethnic and cutural prejudice, a theme whose treatment underwent changes during the musical’s evolution. This study concerns the musico-dramatic evolution of South Pacific, a previously unexplored process revealing the collaborative interaction of two masters at the peak of their creative powers. It also demonstrates the authors’ gradual softening of the show’s social commentary. The structural changes, observable through sketches found in the papers of Rodgers and Hammerstein, show how the team developed their characterizations through musical styles, making changes that often indicate changes in characters’ psychological states; they also reveal changing approaches to the musicalization of the novel. Studying these changes provides intimate and, occasionally, unexpected insights into Rodgers and Hammerstein’s creative methods.

Through cultural parody satirizing both the Theatre Guild and Broadway commercialism, the creators of The Garrick Gaieties of 1925, 1926 and 1930 not only used the revue form to destabilize cultural hierarchies and address tensions concerning art and commerce, but to bridge the distinct traditions of the Broadway musical and art theatre during the culturally dynamic years of the 1920s. The Garrick Gaieties revues of the mid-1920s are legendary for launching the Broadway careers of Richard Rodgers and Lorenz Hart. Bringing Rodgers and Hart ‘their first major recognition’ as a songwriting partnership (Hischak 2007: 92), these witty revues produced the team’s first nationally popular hits: ,- SMT_7.1_Cantu_45-60.indd 45 5/11/13 9:23:51 PM EYqY;Yflm the urban and bucolic odes ‘Manhattan’ and ‘Mountain Greenery’, respec- tively.

  • Broadway 1 a (1893-1927) BROADWAY and the AMERICAN DREAM
    EPISODE ONE Give My Regards to Broadway 1 A (1893-1927) BROADWAY AND THE AMERICAN DREAM In the 1890s, immigrants from all over the world came to the great ports of America like New York City to seek their fortune and freedom. As they developed their own neighborhoods and ethnic enclaves, some of the new arrivals took advantage of the stage to offer ethnic comedy, dance and song to their fellow group members as a much-needed escape from the hardships of daily life. Gradually, the immigrants adopted the characteristics and values of their new country instead, and their performances reflected this assimilation. “Irving Berlin has no place in American music — he is American music.” —composer Jerome Kern My New York (excerpt) Every nation, it seems, Sailed across with their dreams To my New York.
