Marilynn Sheldon WELCOME TO THE WELCOME TO 5TH FROM THE DESK OF DAVID ARMSTRONG EXECUTIVE PRODUCER AND ARTISTIC DIRECTOR WHERE NEW MUSICALS ARE BORN The principal mission of The 5th Avenue Theatre is to celebrate America’s great indigenous art form, The Musical—past, present, and future. We celebrate the past through productions of classic musicals from the “Golden Age of Broadway” such as our recent production of Rodgers & Hammerstein’s Carousel, and modern classics like our current production of Jacques Brel is Alive and Well & Living in Paris. We celebrate the present by bringing to our stage current Broadway hits like next season’s Matilda, The Musical and A Gentleman’s Guide to Love And Murder. Perhaps most important, we celebrate the future of The Musical through our development and production of new musicals. I am proud to report that since 2001 The 5th Avenue Theatre has produced 17 new musicals. To Now we add the final and most important collaborators date, nine of those musicals have moved from our stage to in this process—you the audience.

Freshman year, he aided us by substituting for Mrs. Nelson and by giving us the "Warren Royer Theory/' Sophomore and junior years went smoothly due to the leadership and persuasive ability of Mr. Royer, who managed to somehow — from somewhere — procure funds for our school.

  • Shakespeare on Film, Video & Stage
    William Shakespeare on Film, Video and Stage Titles in bold red font with an asterisk (*) represent the crème de la crème – first choice titles in each category. These are the titles you’ll probably want to explore first. Titles in bold black font are the second- tier – outstanding films that are the next level of artistry and craftsmanship. Once you have experienced the top tier, these are where you should go next. They may not represent the highest achievement in each genre, but they are definitely a cut above the rest. Finally, the titles which are in a regular black font constitute the rest of the films within the genre. I would be the first to admit that some of these may actually be worthy of being “ranked” more highly, but it is a ridiculously subjective matter.

  • 14. Swan Song
    LISA K. PERDIGAO 14. SWAN SONG The Art of Letting Go in Glee In its five seasons, the storylines of Glee celebrate triumph over adversity. Characters combat what they perceive to be their limitations, discovering their voices and senses of self in New Directions. Tina Cohen-Chang overcomes her shyness, Kurt Hummel embraces his individuality and sexuality, Finn Hudson discovers that his talents extend beyond the football field, Rachel Berry finds commonality with a group instead of remaining a solo artist, Mike Chang is finally allowed to sing, and Artie Abrams is able to transcend his physical disabilities through his performances.1 But perhaps where Glee most explicitly represents the theme of triumph over adversity is in the series’ evasion of death. The threat of death appears in the series, oftentimes in the form of the all too real threats present in a high school setting: car accidents (texting while driving), school shootings, bullying, and suicide. As Artie is able to escape his wheelchair to dance in an elaborate sequence, if only in a dream, the characters are able to avoid the reality of death and part of the adolescent experience and maturation into adulthood. As Trites (2000) states, “For many adolescents, trying to understand death is as much of a rite of passage as experiencing sexuality is” (p. 117). However, Glee is forced to alter its plot in season five. The season begins with a real-life crisis for the series; actor Cory Monteith’s death is a devastating loss for the actors, writers, and producers as well as the series itself.

In the last few years, however, Asians have sprung up on shows like “Glee” and “America’s Best Dance Crew” in disproportionately large numbers, challenging entrenched stereotypes and creating new audiovisual associations with Asianness.
