For over 30 years Brent has been a staple of the Sonoma County scene. Making appearances at local charity events, broadcasting live at events like the Human Race, and helping to raise hundreds of thousands of dollars every year for people in need. His heart and voice has been one of the guiding lights in the community. It's with great honor and apprecia- tion that Brent is now the official voice of Transcendence Theatre, another great Sonoma County tradition.

You’re walking into the home of Transcendence Theatre Company and the rich and vibrant energy where we’ve created thousands of magical moments together over the last 6 years. Together we’ve laughed, we’ve cried, we’ve celebrated, and we’ve had so many memorable moments take our breaths away... ...we’ve seen meteor showers punctuating our high notes …we’ve seen community members coming together to save this park, and then each other throughout the fires …we’ve celebrated 80th Birthdays, Marriage Proposals (she said yes!), a 75th wedding anniversary and many more moments together. Transcendence’s 2018 season theme is Every Moment Counts. It’s a simple yet direct message that encourages us all to live each moment deeply, be open to the magic of life, seize opportunities, and celebrate them together. This summer we encourage you to make the moments count and to live them full force... Fill your heart in song and celebrate what it means to be alive, hug your loved ones and tell them you love them, do the difficult thing when it’s the right thing to do, and weave your own beautiful story from the meaningful moments in your life. Imagine what’s possible if we make every moment count… is there more magic, more love, and more togetherness awaiting us? We’re excited to engage and inspire you all summer as we explore these questions through song, dance, and our moments together in the vineyards and under the stars. Welcome to our 7th Season of Broadway Under The Stars. Are you ready to have the BEST SUMMER EVER!? “This day I will make the best day of my life. This day I will drink every minute to its full. I will savor its taste and give thanks. I will maketh every hour count.” — Og Mandino 5 Transcendence-2018.indd 5 5/29/18 4:43 PM EARN. PLAN. GROW.

On making her cabaret debut: “The idea of putting together an original cabaret act where you’re standing on stage for ninety minutes straight has always sounded daunting to me,” Malone said. “I’ve had the idea for this particular cabaret format for a few years. I felt the time was right to challenge myself, and I couldn’t be more proud to debut this cabaret on the very stage that offered me my first musical theatre experience as a nine-year-old in the Moonlight’s very first musical Oliver! directed by Kathy Brombacher.” Malone can relate to the fact that the leading ladies she has chosen to celebrate are all attached to iconic comedic roles. “I learned at a very young age that getting laughs is golden,” she said.

  • By Jennifer M. Fogel a Dissertation Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy
    A MODERN FAMILY: THE PERFORMANCE OF “FAMILY” AND FAMILIALISM IN CONTEMPORARY TELEVISION SERIES by Jennifer M. Fogel A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Communication) in The University of Michigan 2012 Doctoral Committee: Associate Professor Amanda D. Lotz, Chair Professor Susan J. Douglas Professor Regina Morantz-Sanchez Associate Professor Bambi L. Haggins, Arizona State University © Jennifer M. Fogel 2012 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I owe my deepest gratitude to the members of my dissertation committee – Dr. Susan J. Douglas, Dr. Bambi L. Haggins, and Dr. Regina Morantz-Sanchez, who each contributed their time, expertise, encouragement, and comments throughout this entire process. These women who have mentored and guided me for a number of years have my utmost respect for the work they continue to contribute to our field. I owe my deepest gratitude to my advisor Dr. Amanda D. Lotz, who patiently refused to accept anything but my best work, motivated me to be a better teacher and academic, praised my successes, and will forever remain a friend and mentor. Without her constructive criticism, brainstorming sessions, and matching appreciation for good television, I would have been lost to the wolves of academia. One does not make a journey like this alone, and it would be remiss of me not to express my humble thanks to my parents and sister, without whom seven long and lonely years would not have passed by so quickly. They were both my inspiration and staunchest supporters. Without their tireless encouragement, laughter, and nurturing this dissertation would not have been possible.
