  • Tom Chapin's Biography
    Tom Chapin's Biography Born March 13, 1945, in New York, NY; father was a jazz drummer; married wife Bonnie, 1976; children: Abigail, Lily. Education: State University College at Plattsburgh, B.A. in history, 1969. Addresses: Record company-- Sundance Music, P.O. Box 1663, New York, NY 10011. Tom Chapin's early career may have been overshadowed by that of his more famous brother, singer-songwriter Harry Chapin of "Cat's in the Cradle" and "Taxi" fame, but Tom has made quite a name for himself as an eclectic songwriter and singer nonetheless. By the early 1990s, in fact, his music written especially for children, with its toe-tapping tunes and rich guitar accompaniments, had pleased parents so well that they generally think of his later body of work as "family" music rather than "kids" music. Considering his upbringing, Chapin was destined for a life in the arts. He grew up in New York City's Greenwich Village and Brooklyn Heights in a family that encouraged all the children to develop their creative talents. The senior Chapin, Jim, was a jazz drummer who performed with renowned bandleaders Tommy Dorsey and Woody Herman. One of Tom's grandfathers was a painter, and the other was a philosopher. When he was 12, Tom and his two brothers, Steve and Harry, fell under the influence of the seminal folk group the Weavers. The Chapin kids formed their own folk trio, calling themselves the Chapins. They played nightclub gigs in New York for a number of years and recorded their first album, Chapin Music!, in 1966.

  • The Peformative Grotesquerie of the Crucifixion of Jesus
    THE GROTESQUE CROSS: THE PERFORMATIVE GROTESQUERIE OF THE CRUCIFIXION OF JESUS Hephzibah Darshni Dutt A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY May 2015 Committee: Jonathan Chambers, Advisor Charles Kanwischer Graduate Faculty Representative Eileen Cherry Chandler Marcus Sherrell © 2015 Hephzibah Dutt All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Jonathan Chambers, Advisor In this study I argue that the crucifixion of Jesus is a performative event and this event is an exemplar of the Grotesque. To this end, I first conduct a dramatistic analysis of the crucifixion of Jesus, working to explicate its performativity. Viewing this performative event through the lens of the Grotesque, I then discuss its various grotesqueries, to propose the concept of the Grotesque Cross. As such, the term “Grotesque Cross” functions as shorthand for the performative event of the crucifixion of Jesus, as it is characterized by various aspects of the Grotesque. I develop the concept of the Grotesque Cross thematically through focused studies of representations of the crucifixion: the film, Jesus of Montreal (Arcand, 1989), Philip Turner’s play, Christ in the Concrete City, and an autoethnographic examination of Cross-wearing as performance. I examine each representation through the lens of the Grotesque to define various facets of the Grotesque Cross. iv For Drs. Chetty and Rukhsana Dutt, beloved holy monsters & Hannah, Abhishek, and Esther, my fellow aliens v ACKNOWLEDGMENTS St. Cyril of Jerusalem, in instructing catechumens, wrote, “The dragon sits by the side of the road, watching those who pass.

  • Your Lourdes Easter Week Special
    Your Lourdes Easter Week Special “Weren’t our hearts on fire?” The Road to Emmaus Story of Luke Retold in the Cotton Patch Gospel As a special bonus for all those in the Lourdes family who are sheltering in place these days, we offer a story of hope and astonishment. This special proclamation has been videoed by a special actor expressly for you: Tom Key of the Lourdes congregation and long of the Atlanta theater world. But first here’s some context. Of all the episodes of Jesus appearing to groups of disciples after his Resurrection, “The Road to Emmaus” story is the most beloved and engaging. A multitude of emotions and meaning thread through this simple tale of walking and talking with an amiable but questioning stranger, and then breaking bread with him at journey’s end. The two disciples (one named Cleopas and the other unnamed) are slipping away from Jerusalem after all the “things that have taken place” – the crucifixion and then the astonishing news from the women of the empty tomb and angels materializing with messages. They were on an emotional roller coaster of dejection and fear, skepticism and wonderment, hope and despair. This tale of “unrecognized identity” has layers of meaning. On the surface it’s an archetypal story of the Mysterious Stranger, who in this case becomes known but only after he’s gone. It’s also a window into the wider world of Jesus’ disciples – there were more than the 12 Apostles. And was that “unnamed disciple” a woman? Then, probably most important, it’s a narrative that describes what we do in Sunday Mass where there are two tables of mercy – the Table of the Word and the Table of the Eucharist.

  • Cotton Patch Gospel
    COTTON PATCH GOSPEL Originator of Cotton Patch Gospel Recreates Beginning as Solo Performance In 1979, Tom Key was wondering what he would do next after a successful national tour of his one-man play C.S. Lewis On Stage when he spotted a postcard advertising British Actor, Alec McGowen’s presentation of Saint Mark’s Gospel. “It had been a highly successful solo dramatization on Broadway and in the West End Theater of London” remembers Key, “and it was word for word from the King James Version of The Bible, so I thought, ‘Why couldn’t I do the same sort of thing, but, since I’m from Alabama, do it from a Down Home perspective—that is, dramatize what would have happened if Jesus had been born about 1936 in the middle of the Bible Belt instead of 2000 years ago in Bethlehem?’” Key quickly learned that Dr. Clarence Jordan had explored the same idea in his “Cotton Patch” paraphrases of the New Testament. Jordan, equipped with an undergraduate degree in Agriculture from Auburn University and a PhD in New Testament Greek, established Koinonia, an interracial Christian Farming Community near Americus, Georgia years before the Civil Rights movement had begun. In spite of being voted out of fellowship with The Southern Baptist Church for worshipping with people of color, having crops of pecan trees chopped down and his children shot at by The Ku Klux Klan, Jordan persevered. His most famous disciple was Millard Fuller who was inspired by Jordan and the vision of Koinonia Farm to liquidate his fortune and begin Habitat for Humanity.
