  • David Copperfield by Charles Dickens Chapter 13 (Excerpt)
    David Copperfield by Charles Dickens Chapter 13 (Excerpt) My aunt’s handmaid, as I supposed she was from what she had said, put her rice in a little basket and walked out of the shop; telling me that I could follow her, if I wanted to know where Miss Trotwood lived. I needed no second permission; though I was by this time in such a state of con- sternation and agitation, that my legs shook under me. I followed the young woman, and we soon came to a very neat little cottage with cheerful bow-windows: in front of it, a small square graveled court or garden full of flowers, carefully tended, and smelling deliciously. “This is Miss Trotwood’s,” said the young woman. “Now you know; and that’s all I have got to say.” With which words she hurried into the house, as if to shake off the responsibility of my appearance; and left me standing at the garden-gate, looking disconsolately over the top of it towards the parlor window, where a muslin curtain partly undrawn in the middle, a large round green screen or fan fastened on to the windowsill, a small table, and a great chair, suggested to me that my aunt might be at that moment seated in awful state. My shoes were by this time in a woeful condition. The soles had shed themselves bit by bit, and the upper leathers had broken and burst until the very shape and form of shoes had departed from them. My hat (which had served me for a night-cap, too) was so crushed and bent, that no old battered handleless saucepan on a dunghill need have been ashamed to vie with it.

  • — 1 — 1. Class Title 1 (Simon Keenlyside) 2. Waterhouse: Miranda (1916, Private Collection) the Tempest (1611) Is the Last P
    1. Class Title 1 (Simon Keenlyside) 2. Waterhouse: Miranda (1916, private collection) The Tempest (1611) is the last play which Shakespeare wrote alone. It has been described as the most musical of his works, on account of the number of songs in the text, the interpolated masque in the last act, and because it works less through cause and effect than through enchantment, an intrinsically musical quality. It is the only play for which we have any of the original stage music. And according to Wikipedia, it has inspired over four dozen operatic or musical settings. As early as the mid-seventeenth century, managements were adapting the play as a kind of masque, rather than performing the original. 3. Ariel’s Tempest in Columbia I’m also somewhat familiar with it myself. I directed the first performance of The Tempest by American composer Lee Hoiby in the late 1980s, and wrote my own adaptation in 2011 for composer Douglas Allan Buchanan, a 60-minute condensation that we toured to young audiences all over Maryland. 4. Round table discussion at the Met But the version we are watching today is the work of the two people in the middle of this picture: composer/conductor Thomas Adès (b.1971) and the Australian playwright Meredith Oakes (b.1946), seen here with Met General Manager Peter Gelb and stage director Robert Lepage. The picture comes from an intermission feature in the Met’s 2012 Live-in-HD transmission of the opera; I thought of playing it, but it is hard to hear and rather light on information.

  • The African-American Shakespeare Company Looks to Explore What It Means to Be Family in 2018 Version of Cinderella
    Press Contact Liam Passmore Shave and a Haircut [email protected] 415-865-0860 (p); 415-218-1544 (c) The African-American Shakespeare Company Looks to Explore What It Means To Be Family in 2018 Version of Cinderella Paige Mayes in the 2017 African-American Shakespear Company's Cinderella Director Mark A. Davis looks to Sondheim and Into The Woods as inspirations to give context as he takes the reins for this year’s production of the company’s holiday classic as a story of a girl being raised by a mother “who doesn’t like her,” and her search for authentic family, which in this version will feature a Fairy Godfather offering some needed assistance in her transformation and journey that includes a pair of particularly life-changing shoes Cinderella runs for 4 performances, December 21-23 at the Herbst Theatre in San Francisco; Tickets: $25 - $45 can be purchased at african-americanshakes.org October 29, 2018, San Francisco– The African-American Shakespeare Company’s annual holiday offering Cinderella returns this December in an update that recontextualizes our heroine’s dilemma into a journey that finds her seeking what director Mark A. Davis describes as “authentic family.” This, the company’s 17th production spun from their original take first produced in 2000 is their take on the oft-told tale of a girl who while fully aware of the inequalities in her life—forced as she is to wait on her stepmother and two stepsisters hand and foot— doesn't allow them to define her. After being a holiday staple for the company for close to two decades, with a number of revisions, additions and updates, Executive Director Sherri Young is always looking for ways to keep the story relevant to new audiences and reflect the changing times, all while “keeping the uniqueness that only the African-American Shakespeare Company can bring.” As always, the musical production will find our heroine thanklessly toiling away before seizing the opportunity to pursue her dreams after coming into temporary possession of a particularly life-changing pair of shoes.

RYDER SMITH TO BE FEATURED IN THE LINCOLN CENTER THEATER PRODUCTION OF “OSLO” a new play by J.T. ROGERS directed by BARTLETT SHER PREVIEWS BEGIN THURSDAY, JUNE 16 OPENING NIGHT IS MONDAY, JULY 11 AT THE MITZI E. NEWHOUSE THEATER Lincoln Center Theater (under the direction of André Bishop) has announced that Michael Aronov, Adam Dannheisser, Jennifer Ehle, Daniel Jenkins, Dariush Kashani, Jefferson Mays, Daniel Oreskes, Henny Russell, Joseph Siravo, and T. Ryder Smith will be featured in the cast of its upcoming production of OSLO, a new play by J.T. Rogers, directed by Bartlett Sher. Commissioned by Lincoln Center Theater, OSLO begins performances Thursday, June 16 and will open Monday, July 11 at the Mitzi E. Newhouse Theater (150 West 65 Street). Additional casting will be announced at a later date. It’s 1993. The world watches the impossible: Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin and Palestinian Liberation Organization Chairman Yasser Arafat, standing together in the White House Rose Garden, signing the first ever peace agreement between Israel and the PLO. How were the negotiations kept secret? Why were they held in a castle in the middle of Norway? And who are these mysterious negotiators? A darkly comic epic, OSLO tells the true, but until now, untold story of how one young couple, Norwegian diplomat Mona Juul (to be played by Jennifer Ehle) and her husband social scientist Terje Rød-Larsen (to be played by Jefferson Mays), planned and orchestrated top-secret, high-level meetings between the State of Israel and the Palestine Liberation Organization, which culminated in the signing of the historic 1993 Oslo Accords.

    A WORD FROM THE PRODUCERS Michael Holzer Jacque Carnahan One year ago, we came together at the Gershwin Theatre for the very first Arts for Autism concert. Dozens of Broadway actors joined more than 150 young performers to take part in a show that inspired, educated and entertained us. It was uplifting to see so many passionate artists collaborate to raise awareness, encourage acceptance and to celebrate the power of the arts. We also witnessed the Broadway debut of Gina Hitsos, a young singer with autism who found her voice through the magic of music. There was an infectious feeling of love, excitement and optimism as everyone left the theatre that night. After a year of planning and projects we are back! We have many new and exciting developments since last June. After debuting a special arrangement of “Defying Gravity” in last year’s concert, we released a music video to share the beautiful message with an even wider audience. In February, we ventured out to the Ice Plant Recording studios in Queens with three former Broadway Elphabas from Wicked to reimagine the song we know and love. You can find the video on our website at ArtsForAutism.net. In May, we joined Autism Speaks at MetLife Stadium for the Northern New Jersey Walk. We were thrilled to be there and show our support. Jacque and our talented musicians serenaded and entertained the walkers; it was wonderful to see firsthand the positive impact that music can have. Now it’s June, and here we are again at the Gershwin Theatre.
