  • 112 Kansas History Western University at Quindaro and Its Legacy of Music by Paul Wenske
    Promotional material, Jackson Jubilee Singers, Western University. Courtesy of Redpath Chautauqua Collection, University of Iowa Libraries, Iowa City, Iowa. Kansas History: A Journal of the Central Plains 42 (Summer 2019): 112–123 112 Kansas History Western University at Quindaro and Its Legacy of Music by Paul Wenske very seat in the Wausau, Wisconsin, Methodist church was filled on a fall October night in 1924 as the Jackson Jubilee Singers from Western University in distant Quindaro, Kansas, completed their last encore of spirituals. The next day, the Wausau Record-Herald enthused that the performance was “one of the most enjoyable concerts of the year” and that the enthralled audience “testified its approval by appreciative applause.”1 Today one might ask, who were the Jackson Jubilee Singers and where is—or was—Western University? But between 1903 and E1931, as African Americans sought to secure a place in American culture barely two generations after slavery, the Jackson Jubilee Singers were immensely popular. They toured the United States and Canada on the old Redpath-Horner Chautauqua circuit, promoting Western University, whose buildings graced the bluffs of the Missouri River in what is now a neighborhood in north Kansas City, Kansas. In fact, for a brief but significant period, the Jackson Jubilee Singers were the very face of Western University. Their talent, discipline, and professionalism raised awareness of and aided recruitment for the oldest African American school west of the Mississippi River and the best in the Midwest for musical training. “So great was their success in render- ing spirituals and the advertising of the music department of Western University that all young people who had any type of musical ambition decided to go to Western University at Quindaro,” wrote historian and Western alumnus Orrin McKinley Murray Sr.2 Despite its promising start, Western’s success was fleeting, and it closed in 1943.

  • Marcus Rediker's Influence
    ABSTRACT: Title of Thesis: THE DRAMATURGY OF A MARITIME METAPHOR: MARCUS REDIKER’S INFLUENCE ON NAOMI WALLACE’S ONE FLEA SPARE Andrew Neal Barker, Master’s of Arts, 2013 Thesis Directed by: Dr. Faedra Chatard Carpenter School of Dance, Theatre, & Performance Studies Within the dramaturgy of One Flea Spare by playwright Naomi Wallace, one historical source illuminates the story more than the others: Between the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea by Marcus Rediker. By tracing the parallels between Wallace’s drama and Rediker’s history, a historical paradigm surfaces in Wallace’s work just as a dramatic paradigm surfaces in the work of Rediker. Accordingly, this thesis asks: how does the exploration of Rediker’s maritime history of the early eighteenth-century Anglo-Atlantic world from a seaman’s perspective suggest a dramatic paradigm for Wallace’s play? After considering how Rediker centralizes conflict between the seaman and the captain, this study then focuses on the parallel situation found within One Flea Spare in order to provide a productive analysis of analogous scenarios. This thesis also argues that the class-conscious work of Naomi Wallace and Marcus Rediker uses history and metaphor to contribute to a common and shared dramaturgy.

  • Rewriting the Greeks: the Translations, Adaptations, Distant Relatives and Productions of Aeschylus’ Tragedies in the United States of America from 1900 to 2009
    Rewriting the Greeks: The Translations, Adaptations, Distant Relatives and Productions of Aeschylus’ Tragedies in the United States of America from 1900 to 2009. Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfilment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Bethany Rose Banister Rainsberg, M.A. Graduate Program in Theatre The Ohio State University 2010 Dissertation Committee: Dr. Stratos E. Constantinidis, Advisor Dr. Bruce Heiden Dr. Joy Reilly Dr. Anthony Hill Copyright by Bethany Rose Banister Rainsberg 2010 Abstract The purpose of this study is to examine the practices of rewriting Aeschylus’ tragedies for American audiences and the manner in which these rewrites are “read” by stage directors who adapt them in their academic and non-academic theatre productions in the United States. In order to analyze the translation and performance practices of Aeschylus’ plays, this study will examine all English language translations, adaptations, and distant relatives of Aeschylus’ works for the twenty and twenty-first centuries and analyze key moments that connect and illuminate those works. The two central questions that drive this investigation are: (1) what kind of choices have the English-speaking translators made regarding the tragedies of Aeschylus, and (2) how have Aeschylus’ tragedies been rewritten by the practitioners of the American stage? Because of the proliferation and variance of Aeschylean translations into English, and research published to-date, an examination of these practices and texts provides a rich source for analyzing the larger issues of practice and critical evaluation of translation and performance. The seven tragedies of Aeschylus (Agamemnon, Libation Bearers, Eumenides, Prometheus Bound, Persians, Suppliants, and Seven Against Thebes) and the manner in which they plays have been interpreted by translators and producers from 1900 to 2009 will provide the data for this study.
