Johnson A Study Guide for Educators Welcome to the Pacific Conservatory Theatre A NOTE TO THE TEACHER Thank you for bringing your students to PCPA at Allan Hancock College. Here are some helpful hints for your visit to the Marian Theatre. The top priority of our staff is to provide an enjoyable day of live theatre for you and your students. We offer you this study guide as a tool to prepare your students prior to the performance. SUGGESTIONS FOR STUDENT ETIQUETTE Note-able behavior is a vital part of theater for youth. Going to the theater is not a casual event. It is a special occasion. If students are prepared properly, it will be a memorable, educational experience they will remember for years. 1. Have students enter the theater in a single file. Chaperones should be one adult for every ten students. Our ushers will assist you with locating your seats. Please wait until the usher has seated your party before any rearranging of seats to avoid injury and confusion. While seated, teachers should space themselves so they are visible, between every groups of ten students. Teachers and adults must remain with their group during the entire performance. 2. Once seated in the theater, students may go to the bathroom in small groups and with the teacher's permission. Please chaperone younger students. Once the show is over, please remain seated until the House Manager dismisses your school. 3. Please remind your students that we do not permit: - food, gum, drinks, smoking, hats, backpacks or large purses - disruptive talking.

  • Othello and Its Rewritings, from Nineteenth-Century Burlesque to Post- Colonial Tragedy
    Black Rams and Extravagant Strangers: Shakespeare’s Othello and its Rewritings, from Nineteenth-Century Burlesque to Post- Colonial Tragedy Catherine Ann Rosario Goldsmiths, University of London PhD thesis 1 Declaration I declare that the work presented in this thesis is my own. 2 Acknowledgements Firstly, I want to thank my supervisor John London for his immense generosity, as it is through countless discussions with him that I have been able to crystallise and evolve my ideas. I should also like to thank my family who, as ever, have been so supportive, and my parents, in particular, for engaging with my research, and Ebi for being Ebi. Talking things over with my friends, and getting feedback, has also been very helpful. My particular thanks go to Lucy Jenks, Jay Luxembourg, Carrie Byrne, Corin Depper, Andrew Bryant, Emma Pask, Tony Crowley and Gareth Krisman, and to Rob Lapsley whose brilliant Theory evening classes first inspired me to return to academia. Lastly, I should like to thank all the assistance that I have had from Goldsmiths Library, the British Library, Senate House Library, the Birmingham Shakespeare Collection at Birmingham Central Library, Shakespeare’s Birthplace Trust and the Shakespeare Centre Library and Archive. 3 Abstract The labyrinthine levels through which Othello moves, as Shakespeare draws on myriad theatrical forms in adapting a bald little tale, gives his characters a scintillating energy, a refusal to be domesticated in language. They remain as Derridian monsters, evading any enclosures, with the tragedy teetering perilously close to farce. Because of this fragility of identity, and Shakespeare’s radical decision to have a black tragic protagonist, Othello has attracted subsequent dramatists caught in their own identity struggles.

    TAMANAWAS 1991-1992 P136-167 Published by the Associated Students of the College of Puget Sound Tacoma, Washington Campus Happenings Campus Life Begins... Prelude and Passages After a tiring day of unpacking, meeting roommates, waiting in lines, and saying good-bye to parents, the newly arrived Freshmen attended Chautauquas to meet their new dormmates. The next day they expe- rienced the rigors of diagnostic test- ing and the fun of the Anderson/ Langdon dance. On Sunday, the Freshman class began the nationally recognized ori- entation program, Prelude and Pas- sages. Half of the Freshmen de- parted for Passages, while the sec- ond half stayed on campus for Pre- lude. Three days were spent in class- rooms to prepare students for the type of classwork that they would be expected to perform in their courses. They also met with their advisors and , registered for classes. Prelude wasn't all work. It also had its fair share of fun and games. The group was treated to a hypnotist, a marimba band, "Dreams and Fan- tasies," and Playfair. This Page: Top: Some 90-91 freshmen discuss their writing in one of the Prelude work sessions.

    AP Literature & Composition Summer Assignment – Part 2 Students in English 12 AP Literature and Composition are required to complete a Senior Thesis paper, a substantial research project on a work of great literary merit that the student reads outside of class.
