    L I L I O M A LEGEND IN SEVEN SCENES BY FERENC MOLNAR EDITED AND ADAPTED BY MARK JACKSON FROM AN ENGLISH TEXT BY BENJAMIN F. GLAZER v2.5 This adaptation of Liliom Copyright © 2014 Mark Jackson All rights strictly reserved. For all inquiries regarding production, publication, or any other public or private use of this play in part or in whole, please contact: Mark Jackson email: [email protected] www.markjackson-theatermaker.com CAST OF CHARACTERS (4w;4m) Marie / Stenographer Julie / Louise Mrs Muskat Liliom Policeman / The Guard Mrs Hollunder / The Magistrate Ficsur / A Poorly Dressed Man Wolf Beifeld / Linzman / Carpenter / A Richly Dressed Man SCENES (done minimally and expressively) FIRST SCENE — A lonely place in the park. SECOND SCENE — Mrs. Hollunder’s photographic studio. THIRD SCENE — Same as scene two. FOURTH SCENE — A railroad embankment outside the city. FIFTH SCENE — Same as scene two SIXTH SCENE — A courtroom in the beyond. SEVENTH SCENE — Julie’s garden, sixteen years later. A NOTE (on time & place) The current draft retains Molnar’s original 1909 Budapest setting. With minimal adjustments the play could easily be reset in early twentieth century America. Though I wonder whether certain of the social attitudes—toward soldiers, for example— would transfer neatly, certainly an American setting could embody Molnar’s complex critique of gender, class, and racial tensions. That said, retaining Molnar’s original setting perhaps now adds to his intention to fashion an expressionist theatrical legend, while still allowing for the strikingly contemporary themes that prompted me to write this adaptation—among them how Liliom struggles and fails to change in the face of economic and social flux; that women run the businesses, Heaven included; and Julie’s independent, confidently anti-conventional point of view.

    What’s the Use of Wondering if He’s Good or Bad?: Carousel and the Presentation of Domestic Violence in Musicals. Patricia ÁLVAREZ CALDAS Universidad de Santiago de Compostela [email protected] Recibido: 15.09.2012 Aceptado: 30.09.2012 ABSTRACT The analysis of the 1956 film Carousel (Dir. Henry King), which was based on the 1945 play by Rodgers and Hammerstein, provides a suitable example of a musical with explicit allusions to male physical aggression over two women: the wife and the daughter. The issue of domestic violence appears, thus, in a film genre in which serious topics such as these are rarely present. The film provide an opportunity to study how the expectations and the conventions brought up by this genre are capable of shaping and transforming the presentation of Domestic Violence. Because the audience had to sympathise with the protagonists, the plot was arranged to fulfil the conventional pattern of a romantic story inducing audiences forget about the dark themes that are being portrayed on screen. Key words: Domestic violence, film, musical, cultural studies. ¿De qué sirve preocuparse por si es bueno o malo?: Carrusel y la presentación de la violencia doméstica en los musicales. RESUMEN La película Carrusel (dirigida por Henry King en 1956 y basada en la obra de Rodgers y Hammerstein de 1945), nos ofrece un gran ejemplo de un musical que realiza alusiones explícitas a las agresiones que ejerce el protagonista masculino sobre su esposa y su hija. El tema de la violencia doméstica aparece así en un género fílmico en el que este tipo de tratamientos rara vez están presentes.

  • 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.

  • Course Syllabus for “Two Dynamic Duos” Welcome to the Course In
    Course Syllabus for “Two Dynamic Duos” Welcome to the course in Gilbert and Sullivan and Rodgers and Hammerstein, the two dynamic duos who created the modern stage musical. This course will meet for ten sessions, from October 4 to December 13 (skipping only November 15), on Tuesday mornings in Room 121 at the George Mason building at Virginia Square. All classes will run for 90 minutes, from 10am to 11:30am. [From Staff: Please disregard the course schedule listed in the catalog. We apologize for the various adjustments made to accommodate room availability, enrollment and the instructor’s schedule.] In this course we will examine the lives, careers, and some of the works of the two dynamic duos – Gilbert and Sullivan and Rodgers and Hammerstein – who were the prime creators of the contemporary musical play. We will examine and discuss H.M.S. Pinafore, The Pirates of Penzance, and The Mikado of Gilbert and Sullivan, and Oklahoma, Carousel, and The King and I of Rodgers and Hammerstein. We will consider the differences in the working relationships of the two duos, the successes of their shows on their different native turfs and “across the pond”, the differences in their shows, what each of the duos contributed to the contemporary musical play, and the reasons for the enduring popularity of the work of both duos around the world. It is recommended that all members of the study group read, at a minimum, the texts, including librettos and lyrics to the music, of all six shows. Performances of all six shows are available on DVD, and we will play selections from all of them.

  • Films Saved from Twentieth Century
    Hf NO. 41 The Museum of Modern Art FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE 11 West 53 Street, New York, N.Y. 10019 Tel. 955-6100 Cable: Modemart TOM MIX, CLARA BOW, AND OTHER EARLY STARS ON MUSEUM SCREEN "Riders of the Purple Sage" and "Just Tony," two early silent films of Tom Mix, and "Call Her Savage," starring Clara Bow, the early sex siren, will be part of a special series of "rescued" films to be shown at The Museum of Modern Art. The program, starting April 10, 1971, consists of Twentieth Century-Fox films preserved by the Museum, which have not been seen here since their original release. "Riders of the Purple Sage," a 1925 Zane Grey romance, was made by Fox four times between 1914 and 1941. Of the Tom Mix version Eileen Bowser, Associate Curator in charge of the Museum's Film Archive, points out "the camera is permitted to get closer than usual to the actor: he avoided close-ups as a rule, not only to show off to the full his splendid riding and roping skills, but also because he made little pretense of being a dramatic actor." Mix, according to Mrs. Bowser, outranked all other cowboy stars in popularity. He made his debut on film in 1919, but prior to that time he had been a star of touring Wild West shows, and he was billed as "Tom Mix Ex-U. S. Marshall, Expert Roper and Bronco Buster." The second picture starring Mix, "Just Tony," is of 1922 vintage. Named after the celebrated horse Mix rode,which plays an important role in the story, it was made on location in Nevada in the Valley of the Eagles.

Un film di Fritz Lang con Charles Boyer, Florelle , Madeleine Ozeray. Genere Fantastico durata 120 minuti. Produzione Francia 1934. Piero Di Domenico - www.mymovies.it Liliom Zadowsky (Charles Boyer) è uno scaltro imbonitore di luna park. Una sera conosce la bella e giovane Julie (Madeleine Ozeray), la seduce e ben presto i due vanno a vivere insieme. Liliom, però, dopo essere stato licenziato dalla gelosa proprietaria del luna park e convintosi ormai di essere un "artista", si rifiuta di cercare un nuovo lavoro e la povera Julie è costretta a mantenere entrambi aiutando la madre in uno studio fotografico. Un giorno, in un impeto di collera, Liliom da uno schiaffo a Julie, ma il dolore per il colpo ricevuto non fa diminuire la devozione della donna nei suoi confronti. Poco tempo dopo Julie confessa a Liliom di aspettare un bambino: il giovane sembra rinsavire e accoglie con gioia la notizia. Ma dopo l'ennesimo scontro con la madre di lei, capisce che avrà bisogno di denaro per allevare un figlio. Così viene persuaso da un complice a prender parte a una rapina. Il piano, però, va storto: la polizia li insegue e Liliom, pur di non farsi arrestare, si accoltella. Ormai in fin di vita, viene condotto da Julie ch'egli rimarrà accanto fino alla fine. Quando il giovane muore la notizia giunge ben presto al luna park e pian piano le giostre si fermano, la musica sfuma in un triste silenzio, le luci si spengono in segno di lutto..
