MCCLAIN, B.A., BALDWIN‐WALLACE COLLEGE M.F.A., UNIVERSITY OF MASSACHUSETTS AMHERST Directed by: Harley Erdman Dramaturgs have been struggling to define themselves and assert their raison d'être in the American theatre for the past four decades. In an evolving theatrical landscape that includes expanding new play development processes and new modes of collaborative interdisciplinary theatre‐making, the role of the dramaturg must be reexamined in order for it to stake a new artistic claim in the field. Devised theatre‐ making processes rely on dramaturgical practice as an integral part of generating, editing, and structuring performance material and offer a fertile artistic avenue for dramaturgs to utilize their skills. To explore the role of the dramaturg in devised theatre, I chose to curate a festival of three new devised works entitled Beyond the Horizon. This thesis describes in detail my role as curator in the planning, creation, and execution of the festival, as well as my role as a dramaturg within the devising process of one of the three works. To encompass both the idea of the dramaturg as an active co‐creator of performance and an empowered facilitator of change, I proposed a new title for the role: artistic instigator. Drawn from my conclusions and discoveries while working on the Beyond the Horizon festival, I have formed a description about how the dramaturg‐as‐artistic‐instigator might function within vi devising ensembles, propose changes to current new play development practices, and advocate for expanded methods of play‐making. vii TABLE OF CONTENTS Page ACKNOWLEDGMENTS ............................................................................................................................. v ABSTRACT ................................................................................................................................................... vi CHAPTER 1.

In the preface to their 1997 anthology, Dramaturgy in American Theater: A Sourcebook, editors Susan Jonas and Geoff Proehl remark, “...the days of forever needing to explain what a dramaturg does are coming to an end” (vii). Though the title “dramaturg” appears in more playbills, is included in more theater staff directories, and has an active organization, Literary Managers and Dramaturgs of the Americas (LMDA), dramaturgs in America are not yet free of the endless explaining when it comes to describing what they do even fifteen years later. In February of 2012, The American Voices New Play Institute (AVNPI) at Arena Stage held a convening titled “The 21st Century Literary Office” that sought to address what AVNPI Director Polly Carl called on HowlRound’s blog “one of the great mysteries of the American theater”: the role of

    The Great Spill in the Gulf . and a Sea of Pure Economic Loss: Reflections on the Boundaries of Civil Liability Vernon Valentine Palmer1 I. INTRODUCTION A. Event and Aftermath What has been called the greatest oil spill in history, and certainly the largest in United States history, began with an explosion on April 20, 2010, some 41 miles off the Louisiana coast. The accident occurred during the drilling of an exploratory well by the Deepwater Horizon, a mobile offshore drilling unit (MODU) under lease to BP (formerly British Petroleum) and owned by Transocean.2 The well-head blowout resulted in 11 dead, 17 injured, and oil spewing from the seabed 5,000 ft. below at an estimated rate of 25,000-30,000 barrels per day.3 The Deepwater Horizon is technically described as “a massive floating, dynamically positioned drilling rig” capable of operating in waters 8,000 ft. deep.4 In maritime law, such a rig qualifies as a vessel; yet, as a MODU, the rig also qualifies as an offshore facility that may attract higher liability limits under the Oil Pollution Act of 1990 (OPA).5 Under these provisions the double designation as vessel and/or MODU 1.

  • Environment Problems in the Coastal Zone
    3 Environment Problems in the Coastal Zone Chairs: Hideo Sekiguchi and Sanit Aksornkoae 3.1 Coastal Characteristics and Changes in Coastal Features Yoshiki Saito Geological Survey of Japan, AIST, Central 7, Higashi 1-1-1, Tsukuba, Ibaraki, 305 8567 Japan Understanding coastal dynamics and natural history is important in developing a better understanding of natural systems and human impacts in coastal zones. This chapter outlines the characteristics of sedimentary environments in coastal zones which must be understood in order to manage and preserve coastal environments. 3.1.1 Coastal Classification, Shoreline Migration, and Controlling Factors The world’s coastal environments and topography are classified into two types on the basis of the changes which occurred during the Holocene when they were particularly influenced by millennial-scale sea-level changes. Transgres- sive coastal environments, where shorelines migrate landward, are characterized by barriers, estuaries, and drowned valleys (Boyd et al., 1992). Regressive coastal environments, where shorelines migrated seaward, consist of deltas, strand plains, and chenier plains (Fig. 3.1.1). Thus regressive shorelines at river mouths are called deltas, while trans- gressive shorelines at river mouths are called estuaries. The latter consist of drowned, incised valleys. In regressive environments, coastal lagoons sepa- rated from the open ocean by barriers are well developed alongshore, whereas estuaries cross the general coastline. A strand plain is a coastal system that develops along a wave-dominated coast; it is characterized by beach ridges, a N.

  • Regarding Cherry Point Amendments Oil Spills And
    From: [email protected] To: PDS_Planning_Commission Cc: Council; Satpal Sidhu; Barbara Brenner; Rud Browne; Barry Buchanan; Carl Weimer; Ken Mann; Todd Donovan; Jack Louws; Sam (Jeanne) Ryan; PDS Subject: Regarding Cherry Point Amendments, oil spills and explosions Date: Wednesday, December 07, 2016 6:36:45 PM Dear Whatcom County Planning Commission: I just read Paula Rotondi's December 6, 2016 comment that has been posted on the Whatcom County Cherry Point Amendments web page. I am so appreciative of the effort that Paula expended to assemble the comprehensive list of oil spills and explosions that she included with her comment, which is relevant to any pipeline projects that companies may propose at Cherry Point. Such catastrophes speak to the need for strong policy and regulations in Whatcom County to protect Xwe'chi'eXen/Cherry Point and is part of why I support the Council Proposal for the Cherry Point Amendments. Just after I read Paula's letter, I came across a post on Facebook about a new spill on December 6, 2016 that occurred about 200 miles from Standing Rock North Dakota and thought I would send the article to you to add to the list. From the article: "The pipeline owner, Belle Fourche Pipeline Co., is part of True Companies of Wyoming, which also owns Bridger Pipeline that had a major oil spill in 2015 in Montana that contaminated the Yellowstone River and affected the water supply for the city of Glendive. "The spill discovered Monday morning about 16 miles northwest of Belfield contaminated Ash Coulee Creek with the release contained about 2½ miles downstream, said Bill Suess, spill investigation program manager for the North Dakota Department of Health.

  • GRAM PARSONS LYRICS Compiled by Robin Dunn & Chrissie Van Varik
    GRAM PARSONS LYRICS Compiled by Robin Dunn & Chrissie van Varik. As performed in principal recordings (or demos) by or with Gram Parsons or, in the case of Gram Parsons compositions, performed by others. Gram often varied, adapted or altered the lyrics to non-Parsons compositions; those listed here are as sung by him. Gram’s birth name was Ingram Cecil Connor III. However, ‘Gram Parsons’ is used throughout this document. Following his father’s suicide, Gram’s mother Avis subsequently married Robert Parsons, whose surname Gram adopted. Born Ingram Cecil Connor III, 5th November 1946 - 19th September 1973 and credited as being the founder of modern ‘country-rock’, Gram Parsons was hugely influenced by The Everly Brothers and included a number of their songs in his live and recorded repertoire – most famously ‘Love Hurts’, a truly wonderful rendition with a young Emmylou Harris. He also recorded ‘Brand New Heartache’ and ‘Sleepless Nights’ – also the title of a posthumous album – and very early, in 1967, ‘When Will I Be Loved’. Many would attest that ‘country-rock’ kicked off with The Everly Brothers, and in the late sixties the album Roots was a key and acknowledged influence, but that is not to deny Parsons huge role in developing it. Gram Parsons is best known for his work within the country genre but he also mixed blues, folk, and rock to create what he called “Cosmic American Music”. While he was alive, Gram Parsons was a cult figure that never sold many records but influenced countless fellow musicians, from the Rolling Stones to The Byrds.

It was released on the first day of 1969, the same day the Ohio State beat the University of Southern California at the Rose Bowl for the National College Football Championship. It was her 21st studio album. There were dozens more still to come. You know them. Black Gold, Baltimore, Fodder on My Wings, stacks of albums. By the time we met up with Nina again for these nine songs, she had already talked about on “Mississippi Goddamn”, “Backlash Blues,” and “Strange Fruit,” and been about it with her activism, lived, spoken, suffered for. To Love Somebody is an oral representation of what breathing on a track means.
