And now . .What will happen to these children, and to children like them all over America? That is the logical, the tragic question. The answer up to now has been: nothing. Without further encouragement, they will remain trapped in the ghetto, trapped by a system with its fingers in its ears. I hope that this anthology helps to change this bitter reality, for these children have so much to say. These are children's voices from the ghetto. In their struggle lies their hope, and ours. They are the voices of change. -Stephen M.

WHAT IS KARAMU? Karamu in the Swahili language of Africa means a center of enjoyment for all. Founded in 1915, Karamu House today is an Arts Institution which thrives and flourishes on the concept-become-reality that in every man there is a phrase - which is a poem; or a vision - which is a painting; or a movement - which is a dance; or a sigh - which is a song; or a longing - which is the need for self-expression. Karamu House fulfills that need. With vitality and dedication, through research, progressive planning and expanded programming, Karamu House provides for the curious and the concerned an opportunity to observe, to serve, to enjoy; for the hobbyist, and outlet and encouragement; for the skilled, the instruments and plant for producing; for the gifted, professional training and direction; for all, a common meeting ground - creativity. This is Karamu. .

  • 1937 the Andrews Sisters
    Hans Olav Løkken Stjørdal www.historiefortelleren.no 1937 The Andrews Sisters Hun hadde gått noen meter bak de andre og tenkt på broren Ola. Han hadde overtatt Lekåa, var sersjant, skogvokter og nå "bankdirektør". Det siste forstod hun ikke helt hva var for noe. Hun tenkte på far Per, og mor Kari da, som nettopp var død, "uff nei". Og på brevene fra søsknene, Kristen og Ingeborg i Amerika. Brevene som hadde overbevist henne om å utvandre til Amerika. Det skjedde så mye på kort tid. Soffi følte det var ei tung bør å bære. En vanskelig avgjørelse. De hadde flyttet litt att og fram i byen, etter å ha giftet seg i voksen alder. Nå hadde de satt seg ned i Hårstadlia ved Bell, snudd seg en siste gang til dette øyeblikket som ville gi slik smerte. De to eldste sønnene skjønte nok hva som rørte mor og far så sterkt. En skulle tro at de andre ungene også skjønte at dette skulle bli det siste glimtet av omgivelsene deres mor hadde hatt som tumleplass. Nå satt de der alle sammen på bakken, stirret mest tilbake i tomhet, vel vitende om at dette ville bli det siste de så av "heimplassen". Aldri mer skulle de få se "heimen te'o mor" og Selbu igjen. Sterke minner. Sterke følelser. Mor Soffi tørker en tåre. Den snart toårige gamle Olga klatrer opp i hennes fang, krever litt oppmerksomhet - alt var likevel så stille, så forunderlig stille. Olga bryter brått stillheten ved et barns utålmodige lyder - en tone vandrer avsted, fremover - et forvarsel om noe som skulle komme.

KEITH BERNSTEIN . Page 3 of 4 Page 4 of 4 November 1, 2014 From Month to Month, in a Work of the Eerie and the Oddball ‘October in the Chair and Other Fragile Things’ By Alexis Soloski A sad tale’s best for winter, Shakespeare tells us. So what’s the right kind of story for this time of year? A spooky one, of course. Old Sound Room, a young company built by recent Yale School of Drama graduates, has five on offer. In “October in the Chair and Other Fragile Things,” an enjoyably eerie if overwrought piece, the ensemble adapts yarns plucked from “Fragile Things,” a collection of miscellany by the fantasy writer Neil Gaiman. On a set bedecked with cobwebs and dead trees, five performers (including the director, Michael McQuilken) play various months of the year. Wearing ragtag clothes and the sort of stage makeup that resembles a wasting disease, they take turns telling anecdotes and legends. (What of the other seven months? I guess it’s a very short year.) August offers a standard-issue chiller; February, a sad romance; May, a metafictional jumble; March, a bit of faux-Victoriana; and October, an early version of Mr. Gaiman’s much-loved “The Graveyard Book.” Much of this is in the story theater vein, with the months narrating the characters’ actions. Mr. Gaiman has a restless, playful intelligence and a fan boy’s devotion to oddball genre, and the performances are deft and spirited.

  • ST. JAMES THEATER (Originally Erlanger Theater), 246-256 West 44Th Street
    Landmarks Preservation Commission December 15, 1987; Designation List 198 LP-1374 ST. JAMES THEATER (originally Erlanger Theater), 246-256 West 44th Street. Built 1926-27; architects, Warren & Wetmore. Landmark Site: Borough of Manhattan Tax Map Block 1015, Lot 54. On June 14 and 15, 1982, the Landmarks Preservation Commission held a public hearing on the proposed designation as a Landmark of the St. James Theater (originally Erlanger Theater) and the proposed designation of the related Landmark Site (Item No. 70). 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 St. James (built as the Erlanger) Theater survives today as one of the historic playhouses that symbolize American theater for both New York and the nation. Built in 1926-27, the St. James was designed by the prominent firm of Warren & Wetmore as the last Broadway theater erected for Abraham Erlanger. Abraham Erlanger had been a principal in the infamous Klaw & Erlanger Theatrical Syndicate, which had dominated the American theater industry for several decades on either side of the turn of the century. After the break-up of the Syndicate, Klaw and Erlanger went their separate ways, and each built theaters named for themselves.

  • A Sociological Perspective. Gabriella As
    THE EVOLUTION OF AMERICAN MUSICAL THEATRE. 1 The Evolution of American Musical Theatre: A Sociological Perspective. Gabriella Asimenou Faculty of Education Music Department Charles University. Thesis Supervisor: Edel Sanders, Ph.D. Prague-July, 2015. THE EVOLUTION OF AMERICAN MUSICAL THEATRE. 2 Declaration: I confirm that this is my own work and the use of all material from other sources has been properly and fully acknowledged. I give my permission to the library of the Faculty of Education of Charles University to have my thesis available for educational purposes. …...................................... …................................ Prague,20th July, 2015. Asimenou Gabriella. THE EVOLUTION OF AMERICAN MUSICAL THEATRE. 3 Abstract. In this paper I analyse the development of musical theatre through the social issues which pervaded society before and which continue to influence our society today. This thesis explores the link between the musicals of the times and concurrent problems such as the world wars, economic depression and racism. Choosing to base this analysis on the social problems of the United States, I tried to highlight the origins and development of the musical theatre art form by combining the influences which may have existed in humanity during the creation of each work. This paper includes research from books, journals, encyclopedias, and websites which together show similar results, that all things in life travel cycles, and that tendencies and patterns in society will unlikely change fundamentally, although it is hoped that the society will nonetheless evolve for the better. Perhaps the most powerful phenomena which will help people to escape from their sociological problems are music and theatre. Keywords: Musicals, Society,Culture.
