  • A Transcultural Perspective on the Casting of the Rose Tattoo
    RSA JOU R N A L 25/2014 GIULIANA MUS C IO A Transcultural Perspective on the Casting of The Rose Tattoo A transcultural perspective on the film The Rose Tattoo (Daniel Mann, 1955), written by Tennessee Williams, is motivated by its setting in an Italian-American community (specifically Sicilian) in Louisiana, and by its cast, which includes relevant Italian participation. A re-examination of its production and textuality illuminates not only Williams’ work but also the cultural interactions between Italy and the U.S. On the background, the popularity and critical appreciation of neorealist cinema.1 The production of the film The Rose Tattoo has a complicated history, which is worth recalling, in order to capture its peculiar transcultural implications in Williams’ own work, moving from some biographical elements. In the late 1940s Tennessee Williams was often traveling in Italy, and visited Sicily, invited by Luchino Visconti (who had directed The Glass Managerie in Rome, in 1946) for the shooting of La terra trema (1948), where he went with his partner Frank Merlo, an occasional actor of Sicilian origins (Williams, Notebooks 472). Thus his Italian experiences involved both his professional life, putting him in touch with the lively world of Italian postwar theater and film, and his affections, with new encounters and new friends. In the early 1950s Williams wrote The Rose Tattoo as a play for Anna Magnani, protagonist of the neorealist masterpiece Rome Open City (Roberto Rossellini, 1945). However, the Italian actress was not yet comfortable with acting in English and therefore the American stage version (1951) starred Maureen Stapleton instead and Method actor Eli Wallach.

  • PGIP Programme in Detail Rev 3 20
    !1 of !6 Giles Foreman Centre" for Acting A LEADING PROFESSIONAL ACTING STUDIO, "BASED IN THE HEART OF SOHO " " " ACTOR TRAINING | FILM & TV PRODUCTION | CORPORATE" COMMUNICATION LONDON | NEW" YORK | PARIS "" What" makes the GFCA 16-month advanced Professional Intensive " Acting/Acting-Directing Programme unique? Our Advanced course is equivalent in level to Post Graduate study. However, the training is designed for those creative individuals - from any background - who have the capacity, ability and motivation to enter the Industry. The programme involves 30+ hours of intensive classes and rehearsal exercises per week, taught by top- level specialist coaches, each with extensive professional experience. There are in-house showings throughout the course, and plays are presented to the public and Industry during the final two terms. During the final term, as well as advanced-level classes, students may join the Spotlight Casting Graduate scheme; scenes are filmed for showreel, there are Industry events, and a range of further performance opportunities. These continue after the conclusion of the formal training. We take only a single cohort of Intensive-Route acting students each year, to provide a focussed training designed to bring out individual strengths, and we welcome applications from people from a wide variety of previous backgrounds and experience. The programme is tailored towards the unique mix of talent drawn to our centrally-located Studio from across the UK, Europe and beyond. We have excellent links with UK and European Casting Directors, as well as a base in New York, and ofer many opportunities to showcase talent to European casting directors, largely due to the strong connections formed by our Director, Giles Foreman and his extensive work as a film acting-coach.

  • California State University, Northridge The
    CALIFORNIA STATE UNIVERSITY, NORTHRIDGE THE PREPARATION OF THE ROLE OF TOM MOODY IN CLIFFORD ODETS' GOLDEN BOY An essay submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Theatre by Robert T. Hollander June, 1981 The Essay of Robert T. Hollander is approved: Prof. c(§!g Nieuwenhuysel Dr. Georg~ Gunkle, Committee Chairman California State University, Northridge ii ABSTRACT THE PREPARATION OF THE ROLE OF TOM MOODY IN CLIFFORD ODETS' GOLDEN BOY by Robert T. Hollander Master of Arts in Theatre Golden Boy was first produced by the Group Theatre in New York in 1937. Directed by Harold Clurman, this 1937 production included in its cast names that were to become notable in the American theatre: Luther Adler, Frances Farmer, Lee J. Cobb, Jules (John) Garfield, Morris Carnovsky, Elia Kazan, Howard Da Silva and Karl Malden. Golden Boy quickly became the most successful production 1 in Group Theatre history and was followed in 1939 by the movie of the same name, starring William Holden and Barbara Stanwyck. Since then, there have been countless revivals, including a musical adaptation in 1964 which starred Sammy Davis Jr. Golden Boy certainly merits consideration as one of the classics of modern American drama. 1Harold Clurman, The Fervent Years: The Story of the Group Theatre and the Thirties. (New York: Harcourt, Brace, Jovanovich. A Harvest Book, 1975), p. 211. 1 2 The decision to prepare the character of Torn Moody as a thesis project under the direction of Dr. George Gunkle was made during the spring semester of 1980 at which time I was performing a major role in The Knight of the Burning Pestle, a seventeenth century farce written by Beaumont and Fletcher.

  • La Méthode De L'actors Studio, À Paraître
    La Méthode de l’Actors Studio : Genèse, Pratique et Phénoménologie Ivan MAGRIN-CHAGNOLLEAU, CNRS Aix Marseille Univ, CNRS, PRISM, Marseille, France 1. Introduction 1.1. Qui Suis-Je ? Je voudrais commencer par donner quelques éléments biographiques puisqu’ils sont en lien étroit avec le sujet de cet article. Je me présente généralement comme artiste chercheur. Cela signifie que j’ai une activité artistique ainsi qu’une activité de recherche. Sur le plan artistique, je travaille régulièrement comme acteur, metteur en scène et auteur pour le théâtre et le cinéma. J’écris aussi de la poésie, je fais de la photographie, de la musique, comme interprète et compositeur, et de la performance. J’enseigne également le théâtre, le cinéma, la musique, la photographie, l’écriture, l’esthétique, et je coache aussi des artistes. En recherche, je travaille dans le paradigme de la création recherche, c’est-à-dire que je crois à une recherche en art fondée sur une pratique, ce qui est pour moi la manière la plus riche de conduire ma recherche, dans la mesure où je suis aussi artiste. C’est pour cela que je m’intéresse particulièrement à la dimension phénoménologique de la création, c’est-à-dire à la création comme expérience vécue. Je considère mon travail artistique comme faisant partie intégrale de mon travail de recherche. 1.2. Mon Expertise sur la Méthode de l’Actors Studio De 2004 à 2007, je me suis formé de manière intensive comme acteur et comme metteur en scène à l’Actors Studio à New York. J’ai donc appris la méthode de l’Actors Studio de professeurs qui avaient été eux-mêmes élèves de Lee Strasberg, le fondateur de la méthode1 2.

  • UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT SOUTHERN DISTRICT of NEW YORK BRETT GOLDBERG, Plaintiff, -V- PACE UNIVERSITY, Defendant. 20 Civ. 36
    Case 1:20-cv-03665-PAE Document 40 Filed 04/21/21 Page 1 of 29 UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK BRETT GOLDBERG, Plaintiff, 20 Civ. 3665 (PAE) -v- OPINION & ORDER PACE UNIVERSITY, Defendant. PAUL A. ENGELMAYER, District Judge: In spring 2020, confronted with the spread of COVID-19, undergraduate and graduate schools across the country rapidly transitioned to online instruction, to protect students, faculty, and staff. In response, students at many schools have brought suit, generally sounding in breach of contract, to recover tuition and fees paid for, purportedly, in-person experiences. Although some courts have construed these claims as impermissible claims of educational malpractice, others have sustained such claims, finding it well-pled that the college or university breached a specific and enforceable contractual promise that learning or other services would be in-person. Plaintiff Brett Goldberg (“Goldberg”) is a performing arts graduate student. He sues Pace University (“Pace”) to recover damages in connection with Pace’s transition to remote learning in March 2020 in light of the pandemic. Goldberg alleges that Pace breached its contract with him by transitioning his last semester to remote learning, postponing the production of his play, and retaining certain fees. He also brings claims for unjust enrichment and promissory estoppel, and a claim under New York General Business Law (“GBL”) § 349. Case 1:20-cv-03665-PAE Document 40 Filed 04/21/21 Page 2 of 29 Now pending is Pace’s motion for judgment on the pleadings, under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 12(c), for failure to state a claim.
