Mobile aquariums, the color TV of 1890’s Russia, white period furniture floating on a high gloss black floor, cascading light bulbs, a heightened Edwardian fashion sensibility and Gypsy music all pay homage to Chekhov’s own desire to have symbol and metaphor more fully represent the world of his plays.

Welcome to Salt Lake City, Utah Fellow Naccsistas! This Is Not the First
Welcome to Salt Lake City, Utah fellow NACCSistas! This is not the first time NACCS comes to Utah, yet it may seem out of the way from the usual NACCS sites such as Texas, California, New Mexico or Illinois. As I thought about the theme of our conference, I reflected on my perceptions of why a place that is unfamiliar to me. Feeling uncomfortable made me question the very idea of my discomfort. Many of us tend to perceive our sense of familiar place within specific and historical geographical regions for Chicana and Chicano communities. If we stop to think for just a moment, we realize that although a concentration of Chicana and Chicano communities exist in the historical geographical regions of the Southwest, our communities as our people have expanded out for labor and to establish homes and raise families throughout the United States and in places such as Salt Lake City, Utah. It may be an obvious observation, but the fact is that many of us exist and think within a specific boundaries. Let’s ponder that for a quick moment. The conference theme, “Fragmented Landscapes in Chicana and Chicano Studies: Deliberation, Innovation, or Extinction?” comes from this very position of dislocation and invention. As we look out in the Chicana and Chicano Landscape, fragments of our communities exist in more and lesser-developed forms. We are not exactly regionally bound, we have morphed throughout the United States building communities and making our presence known. However, we are constantly being challenged, and we are constantly confronting and meeting those challenges whether they come from external or internal sources, from institutional forms of traditional limitations or from the creation of new survival strategies. -
Pieces of the Body, Shards of the Soul: the Martyrs of Erik Ehn
Pieces of the Body, Shards of the Soul: the Martyrs of Erik Ehn A dissertation presented to the faculty of the College of Fine Arts of Ohio University In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy Rachel E. Linn May 2015 © 2015 Rachel E. Linn. All Rights Reserved. 2 This dissertation titled Pieces of the Body, Shards of the Soul: The Martyrs of Erik Ehn by RACHEL E. LINN has been approved for Interdisciplinary Arts and the College of Fine Arts by William F. Condee Professor of Interdisciplinary Arts Margaret Kennedy-Dygas Dean, College of Fine Arts 3 ABSTRACT LINN, RACHEL E., Ph.D., May 2015, Interdisciplinary Arts Pieces of the Body, Shards of the Soul: Erik Ehn's Martyrs Director of Dissertation: William F. Condee This dissertation demonstrates that theatre has had a longstanding interest in the possibility of one object changing into another through miraculous means. Transubstantiation through art has occupied Western theatre from its roots in the medieval period. Contemporary theatre holds on to many deep-rooted assumptions about the performing body derived from medieval religious influence, both consciously and unconsciously. This influence is more pronounced in certain writers and artists, but it manifests itself as a lingering belief that the body (living and dead) is a source of power. This dissertation finds religious influence and an interest in the performing body’s power in the martyr plays of Erik Ehn. According to theologians like Andrew Greeley and art scholars like Eleanor Heartney, artists associated with the Catholic Church show an especially keen fascination with the body as a sacred object. -
Programming; Providing an Environment for the Growth and Education of Theatre Professionals, Audiences and the Community at Large
AUGUST 2013 Welcome to N. Richard Nash may have penned The Rainmaker nearly 60 years ago, but director Maria Mileaf’s production does not turn back the clock. Instead, she offers us a fresh look at an American classic, reminding us that love and longing, dreams and self-discovery are as timeless as rain. This production marks Maria’s Globe debut, and we are delighted to welcome her here for the first time. She is joined by an exceptional design team, including scenic DOUG GATES designer Neil Patel, costume designer Katherine Managing Director Michael G. Murphy and Artistic Director Barry Edelstein. Roth, lighting designer Japhy Weideman and sound designer Bart Fasbender. The Old Globe’s campus truly comes to life in the summer. Productions run simultaneously on all three of our stages, and the plaza bustles with pre-show excitement. In the Lowell Davies Festival Theatre, the 2013 Shakespeare Festival is already underway, featuring productions of Shakespeare’s The Merchant of Venice and A Midsummer Night’s Dream, along with Tom Stoppard’s Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead. Despite the prominence of the Summer Shakespeare Festival, our indoor venues are by no means in its shadow. In addition to The Rainmaker, the Globe’s summer season includes a sexy, stylish adaptation of the noir classic Double Indemnity. This is a truly remarkable group of productions, and we hope you will have the chance to see them all. We also look forward to having you back this fall for the start of our 2013-2014 season! With two sensational new musicals, three award-winning plays about contemporary life by thrilling young American voices, a tour-de-force by an American comedic master, a poetic classic by a 20th century giant, and the return of Shakespeare to the indoor stage, this remarkable and wide- ranging lineup of productions stays true to the Globe’s storied reputation even as it edges the company forward in some exciting new directions. -

Adaptation as Reader‐Response to The Sound and the Fury A thesis presented to the faculty of the College of Fine Arts of Ohio University In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree Master of Arts Rachel E. Linn June 2008 2 This thesis titled Adaptation as Reader‐Response to The Sound and the Fury By RACHEL E. LINN has been approved for the School of Theater and the College of Fine Arts by ________________________________________________ Jordan R. Schildcrout Assistant Professor of Theater ________________________________________________ Charles A. McWeeny Dean, College of Fine Arts 3 ABSTRACT LINN, RACHEL E., M.A., June 2008, History and Criticism Adaptation as Reader‐Response to The Sound and the Fury (58 pp.) Director of Thesis: Jordan R. Schildcrout In order to understand the complex relationship between original and the adaptation, the paper uses the influential novel, William Faulkner’s The Sound and the Fury, and adaptations of that work in different media to explore the creation of an adaptation and some reasons why an artist creates an adaptation as well as what is altered in a work by removing it from its original context. A general investigation process that leads to adaptation will allow for a further exploration of two adaptations for the stage: Erik Ehn’s The Sound and the Fury and the Elevator Repair Service’s The Sound and the Fury (April Seventh, 1928); and a look into Martin Ritt’s The Sound and the Fury as adapted for film will stand as a possible unsuccessful adaptation in order to allow the reader to question what makes an adaptation successful.
