  • PRESS RELEASE for IMMEDIATE RELEASE Friday, October 7, 2011 CONTACT: Patrick Finlon, Marketing Director 315-443-2636 Or [email protected]
    PRESS RELEASE FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Friday, October 7, 2011 CONTACT: Patrick Finlon, Marketing Director 315-443-2636 or [email protected] Syracuse Stage’s The Boys Next Door Finds Comedy and Compassion in a Group Home for People with Developmental Disabilities (Syracuse, NY)—Meet Arnold Wiggins. He’s basically a nervous person. He lives with Lucien P. Smith who fancies very big books, and Norman who works in the doughnut shop, and Barry who has schizophrenia and has convinced himself that he is a golf pro. In addition to an apartment, these guys share a caseworker named Jack who, despite his genuine concern for his clients, is on the verge of total burn-out. The Boys Next Door is a gentle comedy from the late 80s set in a group home for people who are developmentally disabled. As playwright Tom Griffin reveals the daily struggles of his characters to make sense of their world and their places in it, he reminds us to consider how much we take for granted every day. The Boys Next Door is very funny and very touching. Running October 19 through November 6, The Boys Next Door will be performed in the Archbold Theatre at Syracuse Stage, 820 East Genesee Street. Tickets range $18-$50 and are available at the Syracuse Stage Box Office, 315-443-3275 or www.SyracuseStage.org. The presenting sponsor for The Boys Next Door is The Dorothy and Marshall M. Reisman Foundation. Sponsors are Syracuse University Humanities Center, POMCO Group, Burton Blatt Institute, and Arc of Onondaga (celebrating their 60th anniversary).

  • Elgin Academy's Summer Theater Program Is Excited to Be Hosting
    Elgin Academy’s Summer Theater Program is excited to be hosting educators Rick Hilsabeck and Sarah Pfisterer, award winning Broadway Stars from The Phantom of the Opera, Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, Billy Elliot and Show Boat! Rick Hilsabeck is a highly regarded actor, singer, dancer and teacher with over 35 years of experience starring on Broadway, national tours, the concert stage, as well as the dance world. He has enjoyed a successful and diverse international career. Rick learned the hallmarks of good teaching from his parents. His mom, an accomplished soprano in her own right, and his dad, a beloved high school history teacher, recognized his growing interests in art, music and dance. With a solid foundation early on in vocal technique and an interest in dance, he was pointed in the right direction. Directly out of high school, Rick was chosen to be a member of the Academy Award winning singing group The Young Americans, based in Los Angeles. He was also accepted to the Acting program at California State University, Fullerton. There he studied all aspects of the theatre arts: acting technique, scene study, makeup design, set design, fencing, stage combat and mime. Rick returned to his native Chicago where he worked in the area theatres and studied dance with Lou Conte. The internationally acclaimed Hubbard Street Dance Company was in its infancy at the time and Rick became the first male principal dancer with the troupe where he appeared in two PBS TV specials. He had a long tenure with HSDC as a dancer, choreographer and teacher.

  • Broadway Starts to Rock: Musical Theater Orchestrations and Character, 1968-1975 By
    Broadway Starts to Rock: Musical Theater Orchestrations and Character, 1968-1975 By Elizabeth Sallinger M.M., Duquesne University, 2010 B.A., Pennsylvania State University, 2008 Submitted to the graduate degree program in Musicology and the Graduate Faculty of the University of Kansas in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. Chair: Paul R. Laird Roberta Freund Schwartz Bryan Kip Haaheim Colin Roust Leslie Bennett Date Defended: 5 December 2016 ii The dissertation committee for Elizabeth Sallinger certifies that this is the approved version of the following dissertation: Broadway Starts to Rock: Musical Theater Orchestrations and Character, 1968-1975 Chair: Paul R. Laird Date Approved: 5 December 2016 iii Abstract In 1968, the sound of the Broadway pit was forever changed with the rock ensemble that accompanied Hair. The musical backdrop for the show was appropriate for the countercultural subject matter, taking into account the popular genres of the time that were connected with such figures, and marrying them to other musical styles to help support the individual characters. Though popular styles had long been part of Broadway scores, it took more than a decade for rock to become a major influence in the commercial theater. The associations an audience had with rock music outside of a theater affected perception of the plot and characters in new ways and allowed for shows to be marketed toward younger demographics, expanding the audience base. Other shows contemporary to Hair began to include rock music and approaches as well; composers and orchestrators incorporated instruments such as electric guitar, bass, and synthesizer, amplification in the pit, and backup singers as components of their scores.

    Billy Bigelow, Carousel : Royal National Theatre, UK/ Lincoln Center Theatre, NYC Olivier Award Nomination, Outer Critics Circle and Drama Desk Nomination Theatre World Award Carousel: Royal National Theatre/ Lincoln Center Theatre, Directed by Nicholas Hytner .”Hytner's principal accomplice in this feat is Mr. Hayden, a previously unknown American actor not long out of Juilliard who brings to Billy a Warren Beatty-like mixture of masculine belligerence, bewilderment and tenderness and sings his marathon "SoliloQuy" like an angel well before the character becomes one. “ Ben Brantley, New York Times, December 12, 1992 Hal in Henry IV Parts I&II opposite Kevin Kline as Falstaff and Richard Easton as Henry IV Lincoln Center Theatre Mr Hayden's Hal does wonders in finding an emotional continuum as his character shuttles between his kingly father and Falstaff... Mr. Hayden at last has a leading role to match his memorable Billy Bigelow in the Lincoln Center ''Carousel.'' It's a joy to discover he has the chops to translate the same charisma and thoughtfulness into the very different music of Shakespeare. Ben Brantley, New York Times, November 2003 Chris in All My Sons opposite John Cullum Roundabout Theatre Directed by Barry Edelstein Theatre World Award “But it is Mr. Hayden and Ms. Phillips who give this “Sons” its surprising sensual incandescense… Mr. Hayden turns his character’s improbable saintliness into a willful assumed ignorance that will shatter to devastating effect… The first act scene of Chris’ fumbling proposal of marriage to Ann, which on paper hardly burns up the page, becomes a heated sudy in divided impulses that make it the evenings high point.
