The author has not only tried to give an over- all picture of the theatre in early day Wichita, but has attempted to show that the plays presented in the theatres of Wichita were representative of the plays and stage performances throughout the country. The years included in the research were from 1872 to 1920. There were several factors which governed the choice of these dates. First, in 1872 the city was incorporated, and in that year the first edition of the Wichita Eagle was printed. Second, after 1920 a great change began taking place in the-theatre. There were various reasons for this change.

  • Orchesis Goes ‘Unhinged’ Dance Troupe Amazes with New Performance Bethany Wilson Contributing Writer
    The Page 8 Friday, November 13, 2015 CollegianThe Grove City College Student Newspaper Vol. 102, No. 9 Orchesis goes ‘Unhinged’ Dance troupe amazes with new performance Bethany Wilson Contributing Writer This weekend, Grove City College’s beloved dance troupe will be staging one of their most creative and di- verse performances yet—Or- chesis: Unhinged. Orchesis has existed since 1976 and has been putting on annual performances during the fall semester ever since its inception. The cast regu- larly includes around 100 dancers from all dance styles and experience levels. The Orchesis show is one of the largest productions that the College puts on annually, and this year’s cast will include 80 dancers and choreogra- phers from all majors and ar- eas of study. Their common bond is a love of dance and a desire to express themselves through that form of worship and art. Some of the styles encom- passed by the show include lyrical, hip-hop, jazz, tap, and more. In fact, this year’s show will incorporate a wid- er range of dance styles than in previous years. Regarding the theme “Unhinged,” Head Choreographer Jessica Sayre said, “This year’s theme is very abstract; meaning ‘off- the-wall’ in a sense. We’re interpreting it to represent novelty and creativity.” This year, the cast of Orchesis aims to push the boundar- ies of dance and expression to create a bigger and better show than ever before. The choreographers and dancers in Orchesis have put countless hours into the show thus far, as the cast has been preparing for this performance since the third week of the fall semester.

  • Bill Nye: Science Guy a Film by David Alvarado and Jason Sussberg
    POV Community Engagement & Education DISCUSSION GUIDE Bill Nye: Science Guy A Film by David Alvarado and Jason Sussberg www.pbs.org/pov LETTER FROM THE FILMMAKERS We’re documentary filmmakers, but we’re also Bill Nye fans who spent our middle school years learn- ing about the ecosystem and the color spectrum from his trusty VHS tapes. Bill’s passion and en- thusiasm stayed with us, and when we got older, we started making films about science and tech- nology. When we learned that Bill Nye was doing something new—working outside of the classroom to champion science and space exploration and helping lead the fight against climate change, we knew we had to make this documentary. As filmmakers, we tell stories about interesting people in the worlds of science, health, informa- tion and technology. Our last film THE IMMOR- TALISTS was about the personal lives of two anti-aging scientists. We focused the story more on their humanity, love and death, and less on the technological “how to” of living forever. We take a similar approach in BILL NYE: SCIENCE GUY— Directors David Alvarado and Jason Sussberg. documenting Bill’s journey from popular kid show Photo courtesy of Erika Kapin host to serious science statesman, coupled with in- timate access to his personal life. We see the human-side of a much larger social friction between science and anti-science. Bill is a dream subject for a documentary. He is someone everybody knows of, but no one really knows— where did he come from, what were the experiences that formed his worldview, why is he so mission-driven? Bill was absolutely open to every filming possibility we presented—an amazing leap of faith that allowed us to really get to know the man behind the bow tie.
