The distances to school and station and neigh- bor’s home seem to have suddenly stretched out like a rubber band, and only a car will bring them back to normal. The roads are still here. Houses are where they have always been, and a car is still the best way to get to them. When you look at the Standard Eight, remember that you can take its power for granted. It is known for that. You can consider its future as secure be- cause the company that makes it has ample resou reef. Think of the Standard Eight as something that brings the places and people you want to visit closer to you, and by bringing distant things nearer, enlarges your world.

  • Richard Walton Tully's the Bird of Paradise and the Dynamics Of
    TULLY’S THE BIRD OF PARADISE /1 Selling the Bird: Richard Walton Tully’s The Bird of Paradise and the Dynamics of Theatrical Commodification Christopher B. Balme Theatre historians have long been aware of a glaring dichotomy between theatre’s cultural impact in a given period and its subsequent canonization in texts and productions. As Laurence Senelick has recently pointed out, the canon of anthologized dramatic texts has little or no room for plays by August von Kotzebue, Voltaire’s Mahomet, Aiken’s dramatization of Uncle Tom’s Cabin, or “perennial crowd pleasers like Charley’s Aunt or The Odd Couple.”1 This continuing state of selective amnesia cannot be justified simply by reference to criteria of literary quality, as theatre historians have long since liberated themselves from such dictates. Despite acknowl- edgment of the nonliterary aspects of theatre and the growing body of research into popular theatre and performance, there still remains a lingering suspicion of the long- run hit play and its attendant processes of commodification. The subject of this essay is a largely forgotten long-run play that had considerable impact on US culture in the first half of the twentieth century. Richard Walton Tully’s romantic drama The Bird of Paradise is a perfect example of a serious-minded, commercially successful play that has been erased from our disciplinary memory. Yet it intersects with and reflects many discourses and texts that continue to have influence. The play is set in Hawaii in the early 1890s, the period in which the US annexed the islands and disempowered the native queen and indigenous Hawaiians.

  • Terry Helgesen Collection
    152 N. York St., 2nd Floor, Elmhurst, IL 60126 historictheatres.org Finding Aid for the TERRY HELGESEN COLLECTION Acc. #: xx-005 Future Additions Expected: No Finding Aid creation: August 17, 2010 Size: 10.5 linear feet (approx.) Abstract The Terry Helgesen Collection contains 26 oversize scrapbooks, some correspondence, several draft chapters of a book on theatres, and an oil painting of a young Terry Helgesen. The scrapbooks consist of photographs and drawings of theatres collected by THS member Terry Helgesen with his descriptions of the theatres and other information such as number of seats, architect, opening and closing dates, renovation and demolition dates, and other notable facts. Background Information Terry Helgesen (1914-1995) was a pianist who played on stage in the waning days of presentation houses (a short stage show followed by a movie) as well as in nightclubs. Terry was also a THS Founding member and the 1979 Member of the Year. He was born in Seattle, WA but his family moved to Santa Barbara, CA when he was still very young. He was tutored in piano by Roger Clerbois and Joseph Hoffman, among others. Terry entered vaudeville (variety entertainment with a mixture of comedy, song and dance) in a “tyke” act called “Terry and Ty” with Terry playing a miniature piano and Ty doing a quick-step. Though Terry started as part of an act, he later changed to accompaniment and played on the Orpheum, Fanchon & Marco and Publix circuits. During his travels he sought out newspapers and photographers who had images of theatres which he purchased and assembled into scrapbooks.

During the period 1939 to 1957, Williams composed such masterpieces as The Glass Menagerie, A Streetcar Named Desire, and Cat on a Hot Tin Roof, cementing his reputation as America’s most celebrated playwright. By 1955 he had earned two Pulitzer Prizes, three New York Drama Critics’ Circle Awards, and a Tony.
