THE ONLY MAGAZINE BY FOR AND ABOUT TODAYS DANCERS "The situation in the '80s will challenge live theatre's relevance, its forms, its contact with people, its experimentation . We believe the challenge is serious and needs response. We also believe that after a decade of 'consolidation' things are livening up again. Four years ago an Honours B.A. Degree in Theatre was set up at Dartington College of Arts to meet the challenge - combining practice and theory, working in rural and inner-city areas, training and experimenting in dancing, acting, writing, to reach forms that engage people. Playwrights, choreographers , directors and designers, along with specialists in psychology and political studies work with over a hundred students in London, P_lymouth and Devon. We invite people who are seriously interested in coming to work with us and in taking advantage of the mandato ry grant system to write to us for further details. Admissions week-ends are currently being held for entry in September 1981."

Interspersed with songs of the areas, Bill told how the Dalriadic Scots came to Scotland from Ireland in the 5th to 9th centuries, bringing with them the secrets od distilling whisky. Then he led us on a visual tour of various distilleries around Scotland.

    From Birmingham to Belfast

    UPLOAD: 1 December 2017 Special JEMS Forum: The EMC2 Festival, 24–26 March 2017, De Montfort University, Leicester, UK Sponsored by CoMA (Contemporary Music for All), Arts Council of England, and the University of Leicester From Birmingham to Belfast: improvising and experimenting with students Hilary Bracefield THERE is no doubt that the people behind the Experimental Catalogue (begun in 1968 by Chris Hobbs with Gavin Bryars and Michael Nyman joining in) were largely responsible for disseminating and fostering the rise in indeterminate music-making in the 1970s and 1980s in the United Kingdom. In Birmingham, however, the start of an experimental music group had another impetus. This article, based on a paper given to the EMC2 conference at De Montfort University in March 2017, is a personal account of the events in Birmingham from 1971 and in Belfast from 1977. The start of an improvisatory music group at Birmingham University must be credited to the lecturer Peter Dickinson. He had studied at Hilary Bracefield, paper, 24 March 2017 the Juilliard School in New York and encountered the music of John Cage, Henry Cowell and Edgard Varèse. On return to England he had worked on improvisatory music with students in London. Just before he left Birmingham to go to Keele University (where he set up an important centre for the study of American music) he collaborated in March 1971 with a lecturer in drama, Jocelyn Powell, to mount a performance of John Cage’s Theatre Piece (1960) in an evening concert at the Barber Institute at the university, a series to which the general public always came.

    1966 Jan 6 Newcomers Among the Bands Listed to Play This Week

    1 1966 Jan 6 Newcomers among the bands listed to play this week - The Renegades with singer Willie Sutherland, also Gerry and the Pacemakers. Good win for Buckie Rovers - The Rovers brought off a first class victory by beating Carnoustie Panmure by two goals to one. Matt Smith, a Findochty loon now living in Carnoustie suggested that the Rovers should buy basketball boots, which he reckoned would hold well on the ice-bound pitch. They took his advice and it was £6 well spent. Up against a strong side the Rovers adopted a strategy that was before its time. Alex Simpson was set to range behind Alex Jappy, centre half, in a 'sweeper' role or extra defender. Jan 13 Jones did good business at the Show - Messrs Jones Ltd, the Buckie shipyard got orders amounting to £25,000 at the Boat show in London. This could lead to work for additional 20 men. The Spey Mercia, the yacht the company had on show was built for a London businessman, Mr Wm. Wade The Drovers is a new name listed among the bands booked to play at the different venues this week. Fatal accident at Sherrifston, near Elgin , claimed the life of Buckie man, 29 year old Alistair Fraser when his mini car collided with a stationery lorry. Rovers out of luck in the draw- Buckie Rovers have been drawn away from home again. This time they will have to travel to Glasgow to play Cambuslang Rangers. The Thistle play a brother of Tommy Christie - John 'Busty' Christie was in the Buckie team against Rothes on Saturday.

    Stand-Up Comedy and Everyday Life: Post-war British Comedy and the Subversive Strain. Christopher Ritchie. Goldsmiths College, London, Ph. D Drama, 1998. - ME Ia- AM GOLDSMITHS 87 0079879 6 Abstract. This thesis "examinee,,, its to life , . stand-up comedy and relation everyday and presents a model of everyday life in the commodity society. It seeks to define stand up comedy and how it works as a performance mode and will offer a definition of the stand-up comedian. It will examine how jokes reflect opinions and attitudes within everyday life and how they can communicate negative cultural myths, stereotypes and ideologies but also reach beyond the merely absurd and comical to present authentic moments that enable us to locate the truth about ourselves. The thesis seeks to locate a stand-up comedy that enables us to understand ourselves in relation to life in the commodity society. The thesis traces a subversive lineage through post-Second World War comedy from The Goon Show through the satirists of the 1960s and Monty Pylhon's Flying Circus to Alternative Comedy and stand-up comedians in the present day. The 'Alternative Comedy moment' between 1979 and 1981 is central to the thesis as is the relation to American stand-up comedy, Punk and the rise of reactionary humour in Britain. Alternative Comedy is identified and placed in a social, political and counter-cultural context. The achievements and failures of this comedy will be discussed with particular focus on the redefinition of the role of women and sexual politics in stand-up comedy and the creation of a thriving London cabaret and comedy scene.

    October-November-December 2011

    The Caledonian Published by The Caledonian Society of Hawaii * October-November-December 2011 The Scottish Cooking Demonstration and Meal last year was so popular that we’ve scheduled another with a different menu. “Fare “Fare from from Hame” will treat us to a hearty Scottish Saturday night supper Hame” on Saturday, Nov. 12 at 5:30 p.m. Reservations are $10 per person. The location is again Calvary Episcopal Church at 45-435 Au- scottish moku St., Kaneohe. The church, at the corner of Aumoku St. and Kaneohe Bay Drive, is almost directly across from the McDonald’s cooking & in the Windward City Shopping Center, not far from Castle High School. Park on the Aumoku St. side of the church or around the meal corner at the back. November 12 After our chefs demonstrate their chosen recipes, we will adjourn to small tables to enjoy a meal of the same foods we saw being made. The exact recipes are not yet being announced, but here are some ingredients you might expect in a Scottish meal: leeks, bacon, beef, onions, parsnips, oatmeal, carrots, cream and something sweet. Does anyone know what “hodgils” are? Two of the cooks we watched last year, Jim Redmond and Bruce McEwan, have pulled new recipes from their well-used Scottish cookbooks. They will be followed at the cooking table by the multi-talented Jackie Phillips. In addition this year we are happy to welcome member Wendy Sherman from Kauai, who is a maker of mead, the old honey-based, fermented brew, mentioned in medieval and ancient literature.
