As we do every year, we remind ALL Hostos students that you can submit your work (in any language) and showcase your creativity in writing, photography and any other kind of art. Writing can include essays you’ve done for a class assignment (and poetry, drama monologues, research); the same goes for your art work done for classes or on your own initiative. This year we are unable to have this issue printed because of the extraordinary times we’ve been living through. But we will publish it on our ¡Escriba!/Write! website: https://commons.hostos.cuny.edu/escriba/. Submit work at any time that you’d like to see published to me, [email protected] . What a year+ this has been! It has presented more challenges than we thought we could possibly experience and handle simultaneously, but we support each other at Hostos, in our communities and in our homes. The work we present in this 18th issue of ¡Escriba!/Write! reflects the positives and the negatives of our lives. We have poems and prose about our neighborhoods, our happy trips to enjoy new experiences, our concerns about social and legal justice, and constitutional rights like freedom of speech. All of this as our country has been engulfed in a pandemic such as we’ve never experienced before, except in 1919 and 1920 when the “Spanish flu” overran the world. The art and photographs presented by our talented students captures the extraordinary year, with photos of what it’s like to travel the city during the pandemic, as well as the Black Lives Matter movement, and artistic works of love, depression, hope and nature. The art in our journal always brings its own perspective of life and ¡Escriba! wouldn’t be the same immersive experience without our students’ art. Without the help of our faculty members who nudge (and sometimes shove) their students to send us their writing and their art, ¡Escriba!/Write! would hardly exist! So, heartfelt thanks to Professors Bernardini, Connelly, Fisher, Hutchins, Kleeman, Lara Bonilla, Scott, Turner, Widney and Yannacañeda. My sincere apologies if I didn’t get the names of everyone who sent their students’ work our way. I want to give special thanks to Jason Sandoval, the library’s Information Systems aide and IT person. And special thanks to our Chief, Madeline Ford for her constant support of our journal. December 2020 ESCRIBA! 6 AMANI COTTOY GIRL BEWILDERED I woke up in a hospital bed. The loss of memory on how I ended up here scared me. The room felt weird. The walls were a bright white color, and there were run down chairs everywhere. The machines and medical supplies helped calm me down but it still didn’t feel right. The hospital rooms in Cross County Hospital surely didn’t look like this. Due to the fact that I’m the world’s clumsiest teenager,I would remember most of the rooms. But it’s not like I’ve been in every last one of them, and this is one big hospital. Was I super, white girl wasted, or was I in a horrible accident. I couldn’t tell because my body felt sore, so I’m guessing it was an accident again. One strong enough to keep me unconscious for a while. The bright lights and needles weren’t helping either. I would feel so much better if a doctor or nurse would just show up, maybe I'd feel so much safer. As soon as Dr. Smith came into the room my heart literally jumped. He was truly the best doctor in the whole of Texas, and I'm not just saying that because he was my doctor. He was also the sexiest man too. He made me feel safe again even though I felt like a potato next to him. My brown legs were barely visible due to the large amounts of ash covering them. I knew that my lips were chapped, and my long brown curly hair was drenched in sweat. Heck my eyes probably lost it’s greenish touch, based on how dry they felt. But he didn’t seem to mind, he just smiled. His long blonde hair and icy blue eyes were in perfect condition, as if he wasn’t running a hospital all day. “You’re probably wondering why you’re here?” No really,I thought to myself . “So, I will go ahead and tell you.” I took my sarcastic thoughts back, how could I think about being sarcastic to that. “Please do, because I don’t remember anything that went down, or how I could’ve ended up here.” I said honestly.“Well Max you were found outside of a club unconscious and bloodied.” What, how could this be? The last thing I remember was eating Frosted Flakes, the crappy customers from work (it’s not my fault that Chad burnt their burgers,I‘m just a cashier), and then walking home from my crappy job on Friday. “I don’t remember going to a club.” I said. “Well that’s what your friend Emily said. Oh, and she was the one that brought you. here.” Well that was weird. When did Emily and I start talking again? Last time I checked we haven't spoken to each other in a year. Yeah she was my best friend but things happened, and people then transform into their fake alter ego’s. So why would I be going with or speaking to her at the club? That seemed weird. Very impossible too knowing how stubborn I am. “What day is it?” I asked. I needed to call my boss and let him know my situation. It’s not like I could call my family, especially when you don’t have any. “It’s Friday.” I better have been in a magical coma, or something that made me unconscious for one day. There was no way that I was unconscious for a whole week. I felt like running out of the room and catching some fresh air, but my dumb body told me no. He saw the look of worry on my face and tried to reassure me that everything was going to be okay. December 2020 ESCRIBA! 7 “Don’t worry Max, everything is going to be okay. You and the baby are going to be just fine.” Baby, what baby? “Baby, what do you mean, I’m so confused, was there a child with me?” I didn’t understand what he meant by the baby’s going to be fine. “I’m so sorry that you had to find out this way but Max you’re pregnant. For about a week. You’ve been here for two weeks now.

  • An Actor's Life and Backstage Strife During WWII
    Media Release For immediate release June 18, 2021 An actor’s life and backstage strife during WWII INSPIRED by memories of his years working as a dresser for actor-manager Sir Donald Wolfit, Ronald Harwood’s evocative, perceptive and hilarious portrait of backstage life comes to Melville Theatre this July. Directed by Jacob Turner, The Dresser is set in England against the backdrop of World War II as a group of Shakespearean actors tour a seaside town and perform in a shabby provincial theatre. The actor-manager, known as “Sir”, struggles to cast his popular Shakespearean productions while the able-bodied men are away fighting. With his troupe beset with problems, he has become exhausted – and it’s up to his devoted dresser Norman, struggling with his own mortality, and stage manager Madge to hold things together. The Dresser scored playwright Ronald Harwood, also responsible for the screenplays Australia, Being Julia and Quartet, best play nominations at the 1982 Tony and Laurence Olivier Awards. He adapted it into a 1983 film, featuring Albert Finney and Tom Courtenay, and received five Academy Award nominations. Another adaptation, featuring Ian McKellen and Anthony Hopkins, made its debut in 2015. “The Dresser follows a performance and the backstage conversations of Sir, the last of the dying breed of English actor-managers, as he struggles through King Lear with the aid of his dresser,” Jacob said. “The action takes place in the main dressing room, wings, stage and backstage corridors of a provincial English theatre during an air raid. “At its heart, the show is a love letter to theatre and the people who sacrifice so much to make it possible.” Jacob believes The Dresser has a multitude of challenges for it to be successful.

  • Stages of Emotion: Shakespeare, Performance, and Affect in Modern Anglo-American Film and Theatre
    Stages of Emotion: Shakespeare, Performance, and Affect in Modern Anglo-American Film and Theatre Emily Lang Madison Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy under the Executive Committee of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2020 © 2019 Emily Lang Madison All Rights Reserved Abstract Stages of Emotion: Shakespeare, Performance, and Affect in Modern Anglo-American Film and Theatre Emily Lang Madison This dissertation makes a case for the Shakespearean stage in the modern Anglo- American tradition as a distinctive laboratory for producing and navigating theories of emotion. The dissertation brings together Shakespeare performance studies and the newer fields of the history of emotions and cultural emotion studies, arguing that Shakespeare’s enduring status as the playwright of human emotion makes the plays in performance critical sites of discourse about human emotion. More specifically, the dissertation charts how, since the late nineteenth century, Shakespeare performance has been implicated in an effort to understand emotion as it defines and relates to the “human” subject. The advent of scientific materialism and Darwinism involved a dethroning of emotion and its expression as a specially endowed human faculty, best evidenced by Charles Darwin’s 1871 The Expression of Emotion in Man and Animals. Shakespeare’s poetic, formal expression of the passions was seen as proof of this faculty, and nowhere better exemplified than in the tragedies and in the passionate displays of the great tragic heroes. The controversy surrounding the tragic roles of the famous Victorian actor-manager Henry Irving illustrates how the embodied, human medium of the Shakespearean stage served as valuable leverage in contemporary debates about emotion.
