CORT THEATER, 138-146 West 48Th Street, Manhattan
Landmarks Preservation Commission November 17, 1987; Designation List 196 LP-1328 CORT THEATER, 138-146 West 48th Street, Manhattan. Built 1912-13; architect, Thomas Lamb . Landmark Site: Borough of Manhattan Tax Map Block 1000, Lot 49. On June 14 and 15, 1982, the Landmarks Preservation Commission held a public hearing on the proposed designation as a Landmark of the Cort Theater and the proposed designation of the related Landmark Site (Item No. 24). The hearing was continued to October 19, 1982. Both hearings had been duly advertised in accordance with the provisions of law. Eighty witnesses spoke or had statements read into the record in favor of designation. One witness spoke in opposition to designation. The owner, with his representatives, appeared at the hearing, and indicated that he had not formulated an opinion regarding designation. The Commission has received many letters and other expressions of support in favor of this designation. DESCRIPTION AND ANALYSIS The Cort Theater survives today as one of the historic theaters that symbolize American theater for both New York and the nation. Built in 1912- 13, the Cort is among the oldest surviving theaters in New York. It was designed by arc hi teet Thomas Lamb to house the productions of John Cort , one of the country's major producers and theater owners. The Cort Theater represents a special aspect of the nation's theatrical history. Beyond its historical importance, it is an exceptionally handsome theater, with a facade mode l e d on the Petit Trianon in Versailles. Its triple-story, marble-faced Corinthian colonnade is very unusual among the Broadway theater s. -
Reading Rainbow Book List
COMPLETE READING LIST The PBS show Reading Rainbow was a favorite of my older children when they were small, and as I watched with them, it quickly became a favorite of mine too. Reading Rainbow introduced us to so many great children’s books that we otherwise would never have known about. It was not uncommon, on our weekly trips to the library, for me to seek out books that I had discovered on Reading Rainbow to read to them at home, and later, for them to read for themselves. Since Reading Rainbow went off the air in 2006, my younger children never had a chance to experience this great program. That is why I decided to compile this list. Every time we go to the library, or every time I am shopping for gifts, I will consult this list. I am sharing it with you so you can do the same if you’d like! To the right of every entry, there is a check box so you can keep track of the books you have read. Almost all of the books are still in print, and the few that are out of print are most likely available at your public library or your child’s school library. I could have put the books in alphabetical order by the author’s last name, or arranged them alphabetically by title, or I could have tried to group them by subject matter. In the end, however, I decided to list the books in the order they originally aired on Reading Rainbow. -
Programming; Providing an Environment for the Growth and Education of Theatre Professionals, Audiences, and the Community at Large
JANUARY 2015 WELCOME Welcome to the music and mayhem of Murder for Two! We’re delighted to introduce San Diego audiences to the talented writing team of Kellen Blair and Joe Kinosian. Not only will you get to enjoy the ingenious story they’ve crafted (driven by Kellen’s clever lyrics and Joe’s engaging tunes), but you will have the added pleasure of watching Joe wear multiple hats. Literally. In this production, composer and co-book writer Joe Kinosian will step on stage to play 10 different roles as he and fellow performer Ian Lowe take us through all the twists and turns of a classic murder mystery. Murder for Two also brings director Scott Schwartz back to the Globe. This is Scott’s sixth directing outing here, so if you’re a frequent Globe theatregoer, you may have already seen and enjoyed his work on DOUGLAS GATES Golda’s Balcony, Lost in Yonkers, Brighton Managing Director Michael G. Murphy and Artistic Director Barry Edelstein. Beach Memoirs, Broadway Bound, or A Room with a View. It’s a pleasure to welcome him back to the Globe stage. This year marks a major milestone for The Old Globe: in 2015, we observe our 80th year. Throughout the year, we’ll be celebrating and reminiscing with stories and photographs that take us back through Globe history as we commemorate eight decades and nearly 900 productions. We hope you enjoy these memories and join us in drawing inspiration from them for the next 80 years. Barry Edelstein, Artistic Director Michael G. Murphy, Managing Director MISSION STATEMENT The mission of The Old Globe is to preserve, strengthen, and advance American theatre by: creating theatrical experiences of the highest professional standards; producing and presenting works of exceptional merit, designed to reach current and future audiences; ensuring diversity and balance in programming; providing an environment for the growth and education of theatre professionals, audiences, and the community at large. -

Archive Study Guide: LESBIAN, GAY, BISEXUAL AND TRANSGENDER TELEVISION: MADE-FOR-TV MOVIES ARCHIVE STUDY GUIDE In contrast to the stereotypical depictions frequently seen in episodic television programming over the past five decades, historically, many made-for-TV movies have reflected a more realistic approach to representations of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) communities and issues. As early as 1972, ABC’s That Certain Summer, explored the relationship between a divorced gay man and his son to warm critical reception and a subsequent Golden Globe award for “Best Movie Made for TV.” Similarly, ABC’s A Question of Love (1978) marked an early portrayal of a lesbian mother, her loving relationship with her domestic partner and their joint effort to retain custody of their children in a climate of homophobia. An Early Frost, broadcast on NBC in 1985, garnered wide acclaim and numerous awards as one of the first network programs to dramatically and sensitively examine the devastating impact of the AIDS crisis on a gay individual and his family. Unencumbered by pressures to accommodate advertisers, productions originating from the Public Broadcasting Service (PBS) and cable networks have consistently presented a wider range of earnest depictions of LGBT lifestyles than have been previously shown on television. HBO’s More Than Friends: The Coming Out of Heidi Leiter (1994) featured an early small screen same-sex kiss in its examination of a teenager’s realization of her lesbian sexual orientation. Showtime’s drama, Soldier’s Girl (2003) offered the true story of hate crime victim Barry Winchell, a 21-year-old private first class who falls in love with a transgendered nightclub performer. -
