Michael Bennett had an idea-assemble a group of Broadway dancers in a room, get them to talk, record what they say and make it into a musical. It was revolu- tionary, a workshop that turned into an icon. It is from the creation of ''A Chorus Line" (ACL) that Michael coined the phrase "musical drama". ACL is about Broadway dancers auditioning for a new Broadway show in a theatre in NY City for a director! choreographer (not unlike Mr. Bennett himself) who is coming off of two flops. This is it for him, it has to be perfect. In comes the drama, he needs to find out about each person on the line. This story is for anyone who has stepped onto a stage, heard the applause and couldn't get it out of their blood, and in the end, it is what they do for love. ACL opened on Broadway on July 25,1975, and stayed there until it closed on April 28, 1990. It ran an unprecedented 6,137 performances and is only surpassed by "Cats", which now holds the record for the longest-running show on Broadway. ACL won nine Tony awards out of twelve nominations, including Best Musical, Best Director, Best Choreographer, Best Score and Best Book, beating out Bob Fosse's "Chicago" (what an irony). I was the owner! director of a dance studio just outside of Chicago when I first saw ACL in 1978. When I heard Cassie say the line, ''And what I really don't want to do is teach other people how to do what I should be doing myself", it made me realize where I should be -on the stage. I started auditioning for musicals and by 1980, I was cast in my first professional musical. ACL helped to change my life forever. In 1982, I was cast in the International Tour of ''A Chorus Line" and had the privilege of working with Michael Bennett. He was a genius, a tyrant, a perfectionist, a master director/choreographer, knew exactly what he wanted and how to get it from his actors. I dedicate this show to all the gypsies out there and to my loving wife who lets me follow my dreams every day!! Dean Scott 2 Cast of Characters (Performers Listed In Alphabetical Order) Mike .

Milo Curtis, 1919-2004 Milo was one of our dedicated performers during West Valley Light Opera's formative years. His favorite role was that of Merlin, the Magician, in our 1979 production of "Camelot" and he was perfect for the part. He portrayed many characters on our stage through the years and we will miss him.

Family & Relationships This Teacher’s Guide is designed to be used in the classroom along with The Rep’s Play Guide for Harvey. 2.)

Changing Identities & Perspectives FAMILY & RELATIONSHIPS DISCUSS: Pre-Show Questions • Harvey’s plot revolves around the Dowd family and how they interact with each other. Over the course of the play they learn to make sacrifices for each other, and they redefine how they view one another. How do you define family? What kind of exceptions do you make for family? How do you treat your family members differently from other people? DISCUSS: Post-Show Questions • Harvey depicts one type of family from the 1940s. How have family dynamics changed since that time period? How is your family similar to Scenes from the 1949 Broadway or different from the Dowd family inHarvey ? production of Harvey. Photo courtesy of Program Publishing Company. PERFORM: Family Portrait Tableaus Have students create tableaus (frozen images that tell a story) to illustrate family as a central theme. Their tableaus should be candid in the sense that they are not depicting a traditional formal family portrait, but families engaged in daily life.

  • Who Tells Your Story?: Intersections of Power, Domesticity, and Sexuality Relating to Rap and Song in the Musical Hamilton
    WHO TELLS YOUR STORY?: INTERSECTIONS OF POWER, DOMESTICITY, AND SEXUALITY RELATING TO RAP AND SONG IN THE MUSICAL HAMILTON By Tia Marie Harvey A THESIS Submitted to Michigan State University in partial fulfillment of the requirement for the degree Musicology—Master of Arts 2019 ABSTRACT WHO TELLS YOUR STORY?: INTERSECTIONS OF POWER, DOMESTICITY, AND SEXUALITY RELATING TO RAP AND SONG IN THE MUSICAL HAMILTON By Tia Marie Harvey In January 2015, Lin-Manuel Miranda’s Hamilton: An American Musical premiered at The Public Theater in New York City. Later that year it moved to Broadway with an engagement at the Richard Rodgers Theater, followed by productions in Chicago and London. Commercially successful and critically acclaimed, Hamilton continues to hold significant cultural relevance in 2019. As a result of this musical’s cultural significance, it has the ability to communicate positive, but also limiting, aspects of our society. In this thesis, I examine the concept of rap as a musical language of power. To do this, I assert that characters in Hamilton who have power, and particularly when expressing that power, do so through rap. In contrast, when characters don’t have power, or are entering realms of the powerless (i.e. spaces gendered female), they do so through lyrical song. In chapter 1, I set up the divide between rap and song as it primarily translates among male characters and class. Chapter 2 is focused on the domestic sphere, and in chapter 3 I discuss sexuality. In the conclusion of this thesis, I revisit the character of Eliza and explore the perceived power of her role as storyteller and the way in which the themes I discuss illuminate many missed opportunities to present an interpretation of America’s founding that is truly revolutionary.
