By early September the armies of deliverance had gained such momentum that they were days ahead of the plan. Newspaper correspondents and report- ers found it almost impossible to keep pace with the speeding armies, .and to supply their papers with news that was not already out of date by the time it was sent. Hearts thrilled in response to the delirious joy of French, Belgian, and Dutch as they showered the dusty men in battle-dented tanks and armoured cars with flowers and gifts. In the midst of all the rejoicing over the mighty deliverance that is being wrought, let us pause for a moment to look at the man God has used, and seek to learn the secret of his power. The name of Field Marshal Sir Ber- nard Montgomery is on every lip. He is acclaimed as a master of strategy, a daring leader, a great military genius. And while credit for his phenomenal success must in part be given to his sound military training, to his tireless study, to his high qualities of leadership, and to his native ability, he would be the Registered at G.P.O., Melbourne, for transmission by post as a newspaper.

  • JAMES A. ROBINSON BLACKWELL, OKLAHOMA Our Constitution Sustained by Free Men Note: James A
    1950 JAMES A. ROBINSON BLACKWELL, OKLAHOMA Our Constitution Sustained by Free Men Note: James A. Robinson of Blackwen Oklahoma, won the thirteenth annual American Legion High School Oratorical Contest. The national finals contest, conducted in Phoenix, Arizona, saw Robinson defeat three other national finalists to capture the $4,000 first place award. Second place went to Edmund Kersten of Milwaukee, Wisconsin. He took home a $2,500 scholarship. The third-place winner was Rodney Mara of Rhode Island who received a $4,000 scholarship. Fourth place went to Ross Larson of Kansas City, Kansas. He received a $500 stipend. The strength of the Constitution of the United States lies in the spirit by which it is sustained by free men. The very character of this dynamic document thrives on free men's meeting changing conditions. The American way of life always presents an enticement to free men, a challenge to be an individualist, to pioneer. The American people, free as they are, never hesitate to sweat and toil, to die if necessary, for a better day. In the pioneer spirit, free men nurture our free nation. When the Fathers of this noble Republic launched the Ship of State in 1789, the pioneer spirit, the spirit of the Constitution, flourished. Tides of rugged individualism swept over the treacherous mountains, across the mighty Mississippi, up the rolling plains to the steep Rockies and beyond until this young nation of free men had stretched her borders from the Atlantic to the Pacific. Over the swollen streams the pioneer led his family. In ox cart, in covered wagon, on foot, the young and the old alike dared to make their way.

  • By Tony Taccone and Bennett S
    BY TONY TACCONE AND BENNETT S. COHEN, ADAPTED FROM THE NOVEL BY SINCLAIR LEWIS SOUND DESIGN AND MUSIC BY PAUL JAMES PRENDERGAST DIRECTED BY LISA PETERSON DEAR FRIENDS, Four years ago, in the lead-up to the 2016 election, Berkeley Rep produced Tony Taccone and Bennett Cohen’s adaptation of Sinclair Lewis’ frighteningly prescient novel. With a desire to see the story reach the widest possible audience, and celebrating the impulse that led the wpa in 1936 to share the original stage version of Lewis’ novel for free with 21 theatres across the country, Berkeley Rep offered the rights to Tony and Bennett’s adaptation to theatres, community centers, universities — anyone who wanted to put together their own production or reading. And now, in 2020, this story feels all the more vital, and the need to share it widely even more compelling. I am honored that more than 75 organizations from more than 20 states have partnered with us to share this production of It Can’t Happen Here for free with their audiences and communities. We are joined in this effort by long-time theatre colleagues, by universities from Howard in Wash- ington, DC to Saint Cloud State in Minnesota (near Lewis’ hometown), by libraries, community centers, and radio stations. I am deeply grateful to Tony and Bennett, director Lisa Peterson, sound designer Paul James Prendergast and his small but mighty team, and this extraordinary cast who have collaborated across miles and time zones, through wildfires and new technology, for their conviction that the- atre matters, that narrative helps us to see the world more clearly, and that together we have the capacity to effect change.

  • Documentary Theatre, the Avant-Garde, and the Politics of Form
    “THE DESTINY OF WORDS”: DOCUMENTARY THEATRE, THE AVANT-GARDE, AND THE POLITICS OF FORM TIMOTHY YOUKER Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2012 © 2012 Timothy Earl Youker All rights reserved ABSTRACT “The Destiny of Words”: Documentary Theatre, the Avant-Garde, and the Politics of Form Timothy Youker This dissertation reads examples of early and contemporary documentary theatre in order to show that, while documentary theatre is often presumed to be an essentially realist practice, its history, methods, and conceptual underpinnings are closely tied to the historical and contemporary avant-garde theatre. The dissertation begins by examining the works of the Viennese satirist and performer Karl Kraus and the German stage director Erwin Piscator in the 1920s. The second half moves on to contemporary artists Handspring Puppet Company, Ping Chong, and Charles L. Mee. Ultimately, in illustrating the documentary theatre’s close relationship with avant-gardism, this dissertation supports a broadened perspective on what documentary theatre can be and do and reframes discussion of the practice’s political efficacy by focusing on how documentaries enact ideological critiques through form and seek to reeducate the senses of audiences through pedagogies of reception.

  • The First World War in British Theatre
    The First World War in British Theatre Nathan Gregory Finger Macquarie University, Department of English In the Somme valley, the back of language broke. It could no longer carry its former meanings. World War I changed the life of words and images in art, radically and forever. —ROBERT HUGHES This thesis is submitted to Macquarie University in fulfilment of the requirements for a Doctor of Philosophy in English. The work is entirely my own and has not been submitted elsewhere for examination. Signed: Nathan Finger Date: ii Acknowledgments First and foremost thanks must go to Paul for the guidance and advice you gave every step of way, especially in the wayward early days of this project. Without your help I’m quite certain I never would have made it. Second, to the people who endured living with me during this process. Anita, Tom and Angela, that means you guys. You fed me and provided much needed social interaction. But let’s face it, I really am the perfect housemate. My comrade throughout all of this, Jenn. Whenever confusion set in, or things looked dark, or I needed a second opinion on when to use a hyphen, you were always there. I can’t imagine having done this without you. I think it made all the difference. And finally, Mum and Dad, for a hundred thousand reasons that could never be listed. For everything. iii Abstract More than a century since its declaration, the First World War is universally accepted as one of the defining events of the twentieth century. Socially, politically, economically and culturally the war is viewed as having been a watershed and marks the boundary between all facets of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries.
