James Litzelman SUMMER THEATRE Former Vice President Hobart Heller first suggested that Eastern have a Summer Theatre Program. In the Summer of 1960 such a program was initiated. The course in Summer Theatre was designed to give practical, comprehensive experience in all phases oftheatrical production and to offer University credit for such work. In recent years students enrolled in Summer Theatre have com­ bined talents with students enrolled in Music Theatre Workshop to produce musical theatre. For twenty-six years students and faculty members have worked diligently to present the finest in theatrical entertainment for audi­ ences in and around Charleston. A host of directors, designers and performers have been bringing a varied menu of theatrical fare to Eastern's summer audiences ever since the summer of 1960. We hope Little Mary Sunshine continues this tradition. MUSICAL NUMBERS OVERTURE Orchestra Ac!YI THE FOREST RANGER ......... ... .. ............... ............. .. r................................

P. Blanchette This story is told on two levels of existence: one, the blustery, comic, sex farce about a general who fancies himself quite the toreador with the ladies; the other, the bitterness and disgust that he feels toward himself, and the hollowness of all his triumphs, both on and off the field. The play is a maze of riotous comic cadenzas, positively amazing husband-and­ wife tug-o'-wars, and elusive moments of straightforward spiritual candor. OCTOBER 11. 12. 14. 15 at 8:00 P.M. OCTOBER 13. 1985 at 2:00 P.M. in the Theatre AND MISS REARDON DRINKS A LITTLE by Paul Zinda. Directed by Mel Slott This biting, touching and often wildly funny play probes deeply into the tortured relationship of three sisters whose lives have reached a point of crisis.

    DONATIONS RECEIVED THIS EVENING What if you were nine years old, lived in metro Atlanta and were homeless? You probably have a sibling or two, a mother and/or father who is/are trying to find work that will pro- vide food and shelter for you. But sometimes that isn’t enough. What happens then? Accord- ing to United Way, the average age of a homeless person in Atlanta is the tender age of nine. Each of the community ministries that Morningside Presbyterian Church supports work dili- gently to end the picture that was just painted for you. And there are many similar pictures that we can paint. Whether it’s providing financial support and a meal at Journey or Clifton Sanctuary Ministries, both transitional living programs for men who are homeless, or Morn- ingside’s youth group playing bingo at Calvin Court with the senior citizens who live there, we strive to make our world a better place for those who need a little dose of sunshine in their lives. It bears repeating, this wonderful evening of music is our gift to you. We hope that your gift will be your financial support to the Community Outreach program at Morningside. As you leave, please give as you are able - cast members will be at each door taking your donations. Our church needs your support. Our community needs your support. Our God needs your support.

  • Bridging the Gap Between Opera and Musical Theatre
    The Crossover Opera Singer: Bridging the Gap Between Opera and Musical Theatre D.M.A. DOCUMENT Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Musical Arts in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Keyona Willis-Lynam, M.M Graduate Program in Music The Ohio State University 2015 D.M.A. Document Committee: J. Robin Rice, Advisor Joe Duchi Kristine Kearney Copyright by Keyona Willis-Lynam 2015 Abstract For decades, a divide has existed between opera and musical theatre, with the lesser value being placed upon the latter. Singers, from the start of their training, are told to choose a genre if one wants to achieve any type of singing success. This type of division creates a chasm of isolation and misunderstanding between the musical styles. From academia, to the stage, to the concert goer, one’s allegiance to opera versus musical theatre has been built upon a firm foundation of contrast, without acknowledging that both genres have ties to one another. As a result, most teaching of singing is done from the perspective of the classical singing style, with little to no mention of how to efficiently and healthily sing in a musical theatre style. In today’s social and economic climate, opera houses across the United States and abroad are seeing a decline in ticket sales; some have been able to restructure to survive, while others are shutting down. Companies are seeking a variety of ways to stay connected to the community; one avenue that has produced an area of contention is the addition of musical theatre productions to the season’s billing.

Phi Mu Alpha Sinfonia + Delta Omicron = Sinfonicron Founded in 1965, Managed entirely by students “A Musical within a Comedy” Time: The present and 1928 (sort of) Place: A modern day apartment and the Morosco Theater (sort of) Lyrics and Music by Lisa Lambert and Greg Morrison Book by Bob Martin and Don McKellar Tony Award Winner in 2006 for Best Score and Best Book The Drowsy Chaperone Topics for discussion The enduring appeal of the musical comedies of the Twenties The play within a play in drama, opera, and musical theater Musical Comedies of the Twenties (and Thirties) Plotless revues (e.g. Ziegfeld Follies) European style operettas Light, frivolous comedies, often with interchangeable songs And then there’s: Show Boat (1927) The exception that proves the rule. Musicals of the Forties and beyond Starting with Oklahoma! (1943) • Naturalistic stories • Songs integrated into the plot • Dance numbers that advance the story and/or character development • Serious plots; willingness to deal with death • “Musical” makes a transition from adjective to noun The enduring appeal As Broadway musicals evolved in new and more dramatic directions, it is as if there was a collective realization that the older, lighter musical comedies had a charm that was worth preserving.
