One of these, 2481-2491 Shattuck (Building A on the attached site plan), is over 40 years old and is therefore being BMC Section 23C.08.050.C. Building A is a two-story office building with stucco siding, a tile wainscot, and aluminum windows. A Phase I Environmental Site Assessment (ESA) submitted by the project applicant concludes that the building was constructed in 1919. However, City records do not include a permit for a new building in 1919. A building permit was issued in 1922 for an “alteration and addition” with a cost of $25,000 (see attached). The permit lists the property owner as Mrs. John Foy and the building contractor as J.P. Brennan. Because this was a relatively large sum at the time, it appears the building may have been constructed as a substantial expansion of an earlier building on the middle of the site. In any case, the building’s current footprint was clearly established sometime between 1911 and 1929, as it appears on the 1929 Sanborn Map but not the 1911 map.

  • ABSTRACT a Director's Approach to Sam Shepard's True West Rob Yoho, MFA Mentor
    ABSTRACT A Director’s Approach to Sam Shepard’s True West Rob Yoho, M.F.A. Mentor: David J. Jortner, Ph.D. Sam Shepard’s True West is a black comedy that tells the story of Austin and Lee, two brothers leading vastly different lives who meet unexpectedly at their mother’s home in suburban Los Angeles, and through a series of increasingly surreal events, attempt to assume the identity of the other. This thesis surveys and critiques the research and practical phases of Baylor University’s May, 2015 mainstage production of this play. Chapter One examines the life and works of Sam Shepard with special attention given to True West’s critical legacy and major productions. Chapter Two analyzes Shepard’s play and applies relevant critical theory to his text. Chapters Three and Four chronicle the application of this analysis and theory to directing the play and collaborating with actors and designers. Finally, Chapter Five assesses the production’s strengths and weaknesses.

  • Dramatic Representation of a Culture of Violence in Sam Shepard's The
    Acta Universitatis Sapientiae, Philologica, 2, 1 (2010) 4361 Dramatic Representation of a Culture of Violence in Sam Shepard’s The Late Henry Moss Boróka PROHÁSZKA RÁD Sapientia University Department of Humanities [email protected] Abstract. I propose an intertextual reading of Sam Shepard’s 2000 The Late Henry Moss focusing on the play’s ritual structure and the different interwoven levels and modes of discourse and narrative that grow out of each other and multiply the nonlinear tapestry of the dramatic text. The aim of this “repetition compulsion”—to borrow a Freudian term— of the Moss brothers to retell and reevoke their father’s last days and the quarter-of-a- century earlier family fallout is to render personal and implicitly cultural traumas into a conceivable and coherent narrative of their past, a form of knowledge and understanding that would permit breaking away and turning towards the future. I argue that the liminal sphere created within the play constitutes a flexible and fluid zone of experimentation for its characters where the remembering and/or (re)enactment of past experiences becomes not only possible, but a necessity. The painful and distorted ways in which the brothers attempt to lay the body/ghost of their father—storytelling, roleplay, reenactment in the form of flashbacks—do not result in mourning and working through the past and its traumatic events, but merely in digging it up and reenacting it in all its violence. Thus the play becomes a “defamiliarizing” representation of family violence and war trauma that in today’s multimediaimage dominated culture have become void of significance.

    Cambridge University Press 0521771587 - The Cambridge Companion to Sam Shepard Edited by Matthew Roudane Frontmatter More information THE CAMBRIDGE COMPANION TO SAM SHEPARD Few American playwrights have exerted as much influence on the contempo- rary stage as Sam Shepard. His plays are performed on and off Broadway and in all the major regional American theatres. They are also widely performed and studied in Europe, particularly in Britain, Germany, and France, finding both a popular and scholarly audience. In this collection of seventeen original essays, American and European authors from different professional and aca- demic backgrounds explore the various aspects of Shepard’s career – his plays, poetry, music, fiction, acting, directing, and film work. The volume covers the major plays, including Curse of the Starving Class, Buried Child, and True West, as well as other lesser known but vitally important works. A thorough chronology of Shepard’s life and career, together with biographical chapters, a note from the legendary Joseph Chaikin, and an interview with the play- wright, give a fascinating first-hand account of an exuberant and experimental personality. © Cambridge University Press www.cambridge.org Cambridge University Press 0521771587 - The Cambridge Companion to Sam Shepard Edited by Matthew Roudane Frontmatter More information THE CAMBRIDGE COMPANION TO SAM SHEPARD EDITED BY MATTHEW ROUDANE´ Georgia State University © Cambridge University Press www.cambridge.org Cambridge University Press 0521771587 - The Cambridge Companion
