Introducing New Surflight Theatre
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: Surflight Theatre Press Director Charlie Siedenburg, 551-655-0968 BROADWAY PRODUCER ROY MILLER NAMED SURFLIGHT THEATRE PRODUCER Broadway producer (and Surflight alum) joins notable New Jersey summer destination – Surflight Theatre during exciting transitional period. BEACH HAVEN, NJ, Tuesday, September 21, 2010 — Surflight Theatre Board President Gene Hammond announced today that Broadway producer (and Surflight alum) Roy Miller has been appointed to the leadership position of Producer at Surflight Theatre. A New Jersey native, Miller’s Broadway producing credits include the current revival of West Side Story (Tony nomination for Best Musical Revival and Grammy Award Winner for Best Musical Show Album), The Drowsy Chaperone (winner of five 2006 Tony Awards; Drama Desk and NY Drama Critics’ Circle Awards for Best Musical), and The Pee-wee Herman Show (opening October 26). Before crossing the river to New York, Miller was Associate Producer of the acclaimed Paper Mill Playhouse in Millburn, NJ, from 1991 to 2004 where he produced over eighty musicals and plays including Animal Crackers starring Kristin Chenoweth, Follies starring Ann Miller, Gypsy starring Betty Buckley and Deborah Gibson, and Stephen Schwartz’s new musical Children of Eden . Miller may be new to the leadership of Surflight, but he is no stranger to the Beach Haven theatre's 450- seat venue. While performing in a high school production of Funny Girl in his hometown of Irvington, NJ, Miller was offered an apprenticeship at Surflight by the show’s director and Surflight founder Joseph P. Hayes. That first introduction to summer theatre at the Jersey Shore in 1975 was followed by two subsequent seasons as an apprentice and, eventually, as a member of the acting company in 1978. -

In your Easter bonnet With all the frills upon it You'll be the grandest lady In the Easter Parade In 1933, the great American songwriter Irving Berlin published a song that he titled Easter Parade. In 1948 it was immortalized in a movie (also called Easter Parade) that featured Judy Garland and Fred Astaire. Although the story of the movie is fictional, the event it portrayed – a million or more people, all dressed in their Easter finery, parading down Fifth Avenue in Manhattan on Easter Sunday – had started as a spontaneous event in the 1870’s and had grown more popular with each passing year. It might surprise you to know that the concept of the Easter parade – or, more correctly, an Easter procession – has a strong religious background. In a tradition still followed by some churches (including some Lutheran churches), the faithful would gather outside the church on Easter morning and process together into the sanctuary as Easter hymns of joy were sung. This coincided with another ancient tradition, where newly catechized Christian converts were baptized at sunrise on Easter Sunday, dressed in white robes to symbolize purity and holiness. Soon after he legalized Christianity in 313 A.D., Roman Emperor Constantine issued a ruling that Christians should dress in their finest clothes and parade in honor of Christ’s resurrection. One other religious-related aspect of the Easter parade is that less than 200 years ago, churches usually did not make any efforts to beautify their sanctuaries on Easter morning. -

Wielkanocne pisanki, święconka, śmigus–dyngus to typowe polskie zwyczaje związane ze świętem Wielkiej Nocy. Egg Rolling w Anglii, Judasze w Czechach i pikniki we Włoszech. Jakie inne zwyczaje panują wśród mieszkańców krajów Europy? Święta Wielkanocne w Polsce obfitują w tradycje i zwyczaje ludowe, z których część jest wciąż żywo kultywowana, a część coraz bardziej zanika. Niektóre zwyczaje i tradycje wielkanocne przetrwały do dzisiaj w nieco zmodyfikowanej formie. Czym jest pogrzeb żuru i śledzia, wieszanie Judasza, Siuda Baba, Emaus i kurek dyngusowy? W zależności od tego, w jakiej części kraju mieszkamy, możemy znać różne tradycje i zwyczaje Świąt Wielkanocnych. Święcenie pokarmów Zwyczaj święcenia pokarmów w Wielką Sobotę na korzenie pogańskie, ale został uświęcony przez Kościół. Dzisiaj święcimy w Kościele tylko symboliczne pokarmy, które mieszczą się w niewielkim, zazwyczaj wiklinowym koszyku. Zawartość takiej święconki może być też różna, w zależności od danego regionu. Nie może jednak zabraknąć: jajek, chleba, kiełbasy lub wędlin, soli, baranka (z masła lub cukru), chrzanu oraz kawałka domowego ciasta. Dawniej święcono wszystkie pokarmy, które miały zostać spożyte w czasie wielkanocnego śniadania! Układano je w większych koszach i zanoszono do kościoła lub święcono przy kapliczce. -

TAP INTO HISTORY Study Guide for Educators
TAP INTO HISTORY Study Guide for Educators Highlights of Tap History: 1600’s: English people migrate to the United States, bringing social dance, waltzes, jigs, reels and clogs. At the same time, Africans come to America (as slaves) and bring percussive, grounded and syncopated rhythms. 1880’s: Vaudeville (a variety entertainment performance circuit) establishes tap as an American art form. 1915: Metal taps are added to shoes. 1930’s-50’s: The era of dance movies starring Fred Astaire, Ginger Rogers, Eleanor Powell, Bill Robinson, Buddy Ebsen, James Cagney, Gene Kelly, Donald O’Connor, Ann Miller, and others. 1970’s: Dance studios and colleges start teaching tap. Hip hop and other social dance forms eclipse tap’s popularity. 1980’s: The first tap companies are formed, primarily by women, and the first international tap festival takes place in New York City. 1989: Congress establishes National Tap Dance Day to honor Bill “Bojangles” Robinson’s birthday, May 25th. 1990’s: Tap/percussive dance shows such as Riverdance, Lord of the Dance, Stomp and Tap Dogs become popular worldwide. Savion Glover becomes the poster child for the genre for his appearances in shows like Bring in ‘da Noise, Bring in ‘da Funk and on Sesame Street. Present: Many veteran tap dancers pass away, giving rise to a new generation of tap dancers like Michelle Dorrance, Chloe Arnold, and Jason Samuels Smith. Contemporary tap dance pushes the boundaries of the art form beyond just tapping, exploring elements such as storytelling, technology, and fusion with other dance forms. Questions?

The Ritualisation of Food, Home and National Identity Among Polish Migrants

Special issue, ed. By M.Rabikowska. The Ritualisation of Food, Home and National Identity among Polish Migrants in London. Marta Rabikowska1 School of Humanities and Social Sciences, University of East London, UK Abstract In this paper a process of negotiating identity among Polish migrants will be discussed in relation to their food habits: consumption, preparation and celebration. Through the ethnographic examination of food rituals the construction of meaning of home as both space and nationality will be observed and the attitude to the host culture will be revealed in the quotidian activities. The qualitative research based on interviews and visual ethnography has shown that there are three dominant ways of exchange with the local culture ranging from the least present to the ostentatiously conspicuous, named here as: orthodox, porous, and alternate. Each of them, however, is characterised by a perplexing degree of fluidity and sometimes contradiction which opposes the objectification of the models of culture, as had been already noticed by Bhaba (1994/2007) in relation to diasporic cultures and their tactics of adaptation. Home among Polish immigrants to the UK is a changing concept, open to negotiation, depending on their current 1 Corresponding author: Marta Rabikowska. Email.

Yet (re)creating home requires a certain dose of familiarity conceived from the meaning of Polishness which needs to be materialised from the past memories on a daily basis. -
