The tints of youth; the tumult of battle; the old and worn and tattered banners; the neighing horses ; the broken caissons ; the prisoners of war; the Mis­ sissippi flotilla; the defiant rebel yell on the 111idnight departure from Corinth; Bragg's broken colu1nns on the shifting field of Mission Ridge; the bloody repulse of Kenesaw and Marietta; the discomfiture of Hood be£ ore Atlanta; the exultant March to the Sea; the advance in storm and flood through the Caro­ linas ; the bloody hour before Bentonville; the Surrender of Johnson at Raleigh; and the pageant on Pennsylvania Avenue fallowing the funeral car of Presi_dent Lincoln. Gone are they all; and I too am soon gone t In the fleeting n1oment the aging veteran, hat in hand, waves a salute to the oncoming youth, bearing full high advanced the colors of his country to undreamed-of triumphs: for this is our war£ are; no battle; no crown of Victory t M.

  • In Rehearsal Extract.Pdf
    Proof In Rehearsal In Rehearsal is a clear and accessible how-to approach to the rehearsal process. Author Gary Sloan brings more than thirty years’ worth of acting experience to bear on the question of how to rehearse both as an individual actor and as part of the team of professionals that underpins any successful production. Interviews with acclaimed actors, directors, playwrights, and designers share a wealth of knowledge on dynamic collaboration. The book is divided into three main stages, helping readers to refine their craft in as straightforward and accessible a manner as possible: • In the world: A flexible rehearsal program that can be employed daily and over a typical four-week production rehearsal. • In Taylorthe room: Advice on working& Francis independently and productively with other members of a company, such as directors, playwrights, designers,Not and technicalfor crew;distribution how your personal creative process varies depending on the role, be it Shakespeare, musicals, film, television, or understudying. • On your own: Creating your own rehearsal process, exploring original and famous rehearsal techniques, breaking through actor’s block, and how to practice every day. In Rehearsal breaks down the rehearsal process from the actor’s perspective and equips its reader with the tools to become a generous and resourceful performer both inside and outside the studio. Its independent, creative, and daily rehearsal techniques are essential for any modern actor. Gary Sloan is professor of acting at The Catholic University of America in Washington, DC. He has been a professional actor for thirty years, performing leading roles in major theater companies throughout the United States.

  • THE TEMPEST” RAGES at SHAKESPEARE THEATRE of NJ May 23, 2014
    “THE TEMPEST” RAGES AT SHAKESPEARE THEATRE OF NJ May 23, 2014 “Be not afeard; the isle is full of noises,/ Sounds and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not./ Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments/Will hum about mine ears, and sometime voices/ That, if I then had waked after long sleep,/ Will make me sleep again: and then, in dreaming,/ The clouds methought would open and show riches/ Ready to drop upon me that, when I waked,/ I cried to dream again.” — Caliban, Act III, “The Tempest” Sometimes a story is just so powerful, its characters so memorable, its themes so compelling that it just “goes viral” straight throughout the culture. This is definitely true for Shakespeare’s “The Tempest” (1610-1611), a magical play, literally, with lots of magic in it. Over the centuries “The Tempest” has been adapted as an opera many times. The play has inspired composers, choreographers, painters and novelists. Movie versions include the 1956 sci-fi classic “Forbidden Planet” and Peter Greenaway’s jaw-dropping “Prospero’s Books” (1991). More recently, Julie Taymor did a gender-bending film, starring Helen Mirren as a female Prospero, and Cirque du Soleil adapted the play as “Amaluna,” a touring production. Shakespeare’s plays have traditionally been divided into three categories, comedies, tragedies and histories, but in more modern times a fourth category has increasingly found favor – the romances. These are late plays, including “Cymbeline” and “The Winter’s Tale,” that rise above the confines of comedy and tragedy, and often feature magical and fantasy elements, or else Pagan deities.
