    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: March 21, 2013 MEDIA CONTACT: Susan Yannetti Public Relations Manager [email protected] Phone: 941.351.9010 ext. 4800 Mobile: 941.735.1131 STEAMY NEW COMEDY VENUS IN FUR HEATS UP THE STAGE AT ASOLO REPERTORY THEATRE (SARASOTA, March 21, 2013) — It’s more than just the Florida sun that’s sizzling at Asolo Rep this spring. The must-see hit of the recent Broadway season, Venus in Fur, written by theatrical mastermind David Ives opens in the Historic Asolo Theater Friday, April 5 and runs through April 28, 2013. Two preview performances are scheduled for April 3 and 4. Tea Alagić, an exciting new talent originally from the Czech Republic, directs this wickedly entertaining comedy that explores the complex relationship between an aspiring stage actress and her playwright/director. Venus in Fur is a hot ticket in every sense. This alluring tale of love, lust, and literature illuminates the ultimate battle of the sexes. Vanda is the far-from-typical young actress who arrives to audition for the lead in playwright Thomas’ adaptation of Leopold von Sacher-Masoch’s 1870 erotic novel, “Venus in Furs.” As her audition proceeds, Vanda’s continually shifting personas, accents, moods, expressions and apparent (and not-so-apparent) intentions engage Thomas in an emotionally charged game of cat and mouse. Is art imitating life? Or is it the other way around? As the lines between reality and fantasy become blurred the audience is swept up in Thomas’ seduction. The Broadway production made an instant star of its leading actress, Nina Arianda, who won the Tony Award for Best Actress in 2012.

  • Inauguration Ceremony in Ukraine As a Factor of Cultural Diplomacy
    PERIODYK NAUKOWY AKADEMII POLONIJNEJ 38 (2020) nr 1 INAUGURATION CEREMONY IN UKRAINE AS A FACTOR OF CULTURAL DIPLOMACY Oksana Zakharova Doctor of Historical Sciences, Professor, Independent Researcher e-mail: [email protected], orcid.org/0000-0002-2143-7020 Summary State civil and military ceremonies, different in their content and form (coronation of monarchs, inauguration, military reviews and parades, etc.), are important in the exercising by the state of its political, ideological and cultural functions. Cultural diplomacy is a component of public diplomacy, which, in turn, is one of the tools for creating the image of the state, its attractiveness for the countries of the world community. As one of the communication technologies in the process of legitimizing government institutions, the inauguration ceremony is an important mechanism of cultural diplomacy. Despite the fact that in the states of the post-Soviet space, after the October 1917 coup, the natural process of the development of state ceremonial culture was disrupted, the inauguration cer- emony in Ukraine is the program of the current government, politics and the prestige of the state. The very specificity of the inauguration as a social phenomenon makes the ceremonial action a kind of illustration of the customs and tastes of the ruling elite, which also establishes a balance between the participants in the ceremony and society.
