  • In Kindergarten with the Author of WIT
    re p resenting the american theatre DRAMATISTS by publishing and licensing the works PLAY SERVICE, INC. of new and established playwrights. atpIssuel 4,aFall 1999 y In Kindergarten with the Author of WIT aggie Edson — the celebrated playwright who is so far Off- Broadway, she’s below the Mason-Dixon line — is performing a Mdaily ritual known as Wiggle Down. " Tapping my toe, just tapping my toe" she sings, to the tune of "Singin' in the Rain," before a crowd of kindergarteners at a downtown elementary school in Atlanta. "What a glorious feeling, I'm — nodding my head!" The kids gleefully tap their toes and nod themselves silly as they sing along. "Give yourselves a standing O!" Ms. Edson cries, when the song ends. Her charges scramble to their feet and clap their hands, sending their arms arcing overhead in a giant "O." This willowy 37-year-old woman with tousled brown hair and a big grin couldn't seem more different from Dr. Vivian Bearing, the brilliant, emotionally remote English professor who is the heroine of her play WIT — which has won such unanimous critical acclaim in its small Off- Broadway production. Vivian is a 50-year-old scholar who has devoted her life to the study of John Donne's "Holy Sonnets." When we meet her, she is dying of very placement of a comma crystallizing mysteries of life and death for ovarian cancer. Bald from chemotherapy, she makes her entrance clad Vivian and her audience. For this feat, one critic demanded that Ms. Edson in a hospital gown, dragging an IV pole.

    Musical Theatre Scene Study (Sections II, III) Syllabus: 2018-19 Oakland School for the Arts – School of Theatre Instructor: Mr. Travisano Class Location: Room 202 Instructor Contact: [email protected] Class Meeting Times: Tues (Periods 7, 8) & Thurs (Period 7) Instructor Office Hours: lunch/after school _________________________________________________________________________________________________ ABOUT THE COURSE In this course we’ll explore methods and historical practice of musical theatre dating from the so-called Golden Age of the 1950s to next generation of musical creators who begin to push the genre in a new direction in the 1970s (creating what are referred to as “concept musicals”). Through a close examination of specific musicals you’ll gain an in depth knowledge of the acting theories and techniques required to create fully-realized characters. You’ll also gain practical knowledge of musical theatre performance by directing, choreographing, and performing scenes from musicals of this period. Based on student feedback, in this course we’ll focus more intently on acting as a component of the art of musical theatre performance. We’ll explore non-musicals from this period as the basis for exercises in theory and practice. In fact, we’ll begin the year in this particular section with an intensive acting workshop around the work of Tennessee Williams. As we align with CTE (Career Technical Education, Performing Arts Pathway Standards B.1-6) throughout this course we’ll think about how you can apply what you learn in this class to what you can expect in a career or in college. You’ll do frequent observations and critiques of each other’s work and the work of established professionals from whom we can all learn.
