  • February 26, 2021 Amazon Warehouse Workers In
    February 26, 2021 Amazon warehouse workers in Bessemer, Alabama are voting to form a union with the Retail, Wholesale and Department Store Union (RWDSU). We are the writers of feature films and television series. All of our work is done under union contracts whether it appears on Amazon Prime, a different streaming service, or a television network. Unions protect workers with essential rights and benefits. Most importantly, a union gives employees a seat at the table to negotiate fair pay, scheduling and more workplace policies. Deadline Amazon accepts unions for entertainment workers, and we believe warehouse workers deserve the same respect in the workplace. We strongly urge all Amazon warehouse workers in Bessemer to VOTE UNION YES. In solidarity and support, Megan Abbott (DARE ME) Chris Abbott (LITTLE HOUSE ON THE PRAIRIE; CAGNEY AND LACEY; MAGNUM, PI; HIGH SIERRA SEARCH AND RESCUE; DR.

Latta, Ph.D. in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Education in Leadership Studies Xavier University Cincinnati, OH May 2017 Running head: GETTING TO “THE POINTE” Running head: GETTING TO “THE POINTE” GETTING TO “THE POINTE”: ASSESSING THE LIGHT AND DARK DIMENSIONS OF LEADESHIP ATTRIBUTES IN BALLET CULTURE Ashley Lauren Whitely Dissertation Advisor: Gail F. Latta, Ph.D. Abstract The focus of this ethnographic study is to examine the industry-wide culture of the American ballet. Two additional research questions guided the investigation: what attributes, and their light and dark dimensions, are valued among individuals selected for leadership roles within the culture, and how does the ballet industry nurture these attributes? An understanding of the culture was garnered through observations and interviews conducted in three classically-based professional ballet companies in the United States: one located in the Rocky Mountain region, one in the Midwestern region, and one in the Pacific Northwest region. Data analysis brought forth cultural and leadership themes revealing an industry consumed by “the ideal” to the point that members are willing to make sacrifices, both at the individual and organizational levels, for the pursuit of beauty. The ballet culture was found to expect its leaders to manifest the light dimensions of attributes valued by the culture, because these individuals are elevated to the extent that they “become the culture,” but they also allow these individuals to simultaneously exemplify the dark dimensions of these attributes.

Last year Anderson understudied Glenn Close in the Broadway revival of “Sunset Boulevard” followed by a Helen Hayes nominated performance as Gladys in “The Pajama Game” at Arena Stage in Washington, D.C. She made her Broadway debut as Mona in “A Class Act,” played the roles of Helen and Eileen in the Broadway revival of “Wonderful Town” and starred as Lois/Bianca in the national tour and West End premiere of Michael Blakemore’s and Kathleen Marshall’s Broadway revival of “Kiss Me Kate,” for which she received Helen Hayes and Olivier Award nominations.

  • “DANCE SERIES 01” in CARMEL March 23 & 24, 2018
    SMUIN PRESENTS “DANCE SERIES 01” IN CARMEL March 23 & 24, 2018 Program includes: Requiem for a Rose by Annabelle Lopez Ochoa Fly Me to the Moon by Michael Smuin Serenade for Strings by Garrett Ammon SAN FRANCISCO, CA (22 February 2018) — Smuin, after a successful run of its annual holiday extravaganza The Christmas Ballet, returns to Carmel with Dance Series 01. Continuing its 24th season, this program includes Annabelle Lopez Ochoa’s critically lauded and transcendent piece Requiem for a Rose. Ochoa is an internationally acclaimed choreographer who creates contemporary dance works and also adapts her style for classical ballet companies. At its West Coast premiere with Smuin in fall 2017, San Francisco Classical Voice described the piece as “perfection!” Also on the program is Michael Smuin’s joyful tribute to Ol’ Blue Eyes, Fly Me to the Moon, hailed as “delicious” by the San Francisco Chronicle. This blend of ballet and popular dance is the embodiment of the smooth and stylish melodies that have inspired generations, including Sinatra’s renditions of “I’ve Got You Under My Skin” and “The Lady is a Tramp.” Rounding out the bill is the return of Garrett Ammon’s bold Serenade for Strings. Set to Tchaikovsky’s score of the same name, this work is a vibrant new interpretation of a piece inexorably tied to the iconic 1934 Balanchine ballet. Upon making its West Coast premiere with Smuin in October 2014, the San Francisco Chronicle noted that “the whole cast danced it vibrantly and flawlessly.” The Dance Series 01 program debuted in San Francisco last fall, with San Francisco Classical Voice describing the program as “terrific…in tune with the demand for ballets that aren’t the same old!” Dance Series 01 will be presented March 23-24 at the Sunset Center in Carmel.

    FKP Scorpio Konzertproduktionen GmbH Große Elbstr. 277 a ∙ 22767 Hamburg Tel. (040) 853 88 888 ∙ www.fkpscorpio.com PRESSEMITTEILUNG 04.04.2016 The Lumineers bestätigen weitere Show in Hamburg Es hat vier lange Jahre gedauert. Im Mai sind The Lumineers endlich wieder mit Hits wie ‚Ho Hey’ und ‚Stubborn Love’ und den Songs ihres neuen Albums ‚Cleopatra’ (VÖ 08.04.2016) live in drei deutschen Städten zu sehen. Die Shows in Berlin und Hamburg sind bereits ausverkauft. Wegen der großen Nachfrage kündigt das Trio für November vier weitere Shows an. Am 14. November werden The Lumineers erneut nach Hamburg kommen und im Mehr! Theater spielen. Für Wesley Schultz, Jeremiah Fraites und Neyla Pekarek begann alles damit, dass ‚Ho Hey’ für eine amerikanische TV-Serie verwendet wurde. Ihr selbstbetiteltes Album, das 2012 erschien, verkaufte sich alleine in den USA 1,7 Millionen mal, weltweit waren es drei Millionen Exemplare. Drei Jahre lang waren The Lumineers live unterwegs und spielten auf sechs von sieben Kontinenten. Genau wie bei ihrem Erstling hatten sie auch bei ‚Cleopatra’ größtmögliche Freiheit, was Songwriting und Produktion betraf. Herausgekommen ist erneut ein Werk mit Anlehnungen an Arbeitersongs des 19. Jahrhunderts, Akustik-Folk des 20. Jahrhunderts und zeitgenössische orchestrale Soundtracks. Auf der Bühne wird ihre Mischung aus klassischem Pop und alternative Rock zur mitreißenden Show, die auf der ganzen Welt für begeisterte Fans sorgt.

  • “Bo Diddley” and “I'm a Man” (1955)
    “Bo Diddley” and “I’m a Man” (1955) Added to the National Registry: 2011 Essay by Ed Komara (guest post)* Bo Diddley While waiting in Bo Diddley’s house to conduct an interview for the February 12, 1987 issue of “Rolling Stone,” journalist Kurt Loder noticed a poster. “If You Think Rock and Roll Started With Elvis,” it proclaimed, “You Don’t Know Diddley.” This statement seems exaggerated, but upon listening to Diddley’s April 1955 debut 78 on Checker 814, “Bo Diddley” backed with “I’m A Man,” it becomes apt, perhaps even understated. Bo Diddley (1928-2008) described his own place in music history to Loder. “People wouldn’t even bother with no stuff like ‘Bo Diddley’ and ‘I’m A Man’ and stuff like that ten years earlier [circa 1945] or even a year earlier [1954]. Then Leonard and Phil Chess decided to take a chance, and suddenly a whole different scene, a different kind of music, came in. And that was the beginning of rock and roll.” The composer credit for Checker 814 reads “E. McDaniels,” and there begins the tale. Bo Diddley was born Ellas Otha Bates in McComb, Mississippi on December 30, 1928 to a teenage mother and her local boyfriend. He was raised, however, by his maternal first cousin, Gussie McDaniel, to whom he was taken to Chicago, and given her surname McDaniel. He grew up on the South Side of the city, where he learned violin, trombone and, at age 12, the guitar. Before long, he was playing for change on the local streets.
