Scuttlebutt from the Spermaceti Press 2015
Jan 15 #1 Scuttlebutt from the Spermaceti Press Sherlockians (and Holmesians) gathered in New York to celebrate the Great Detective's 161st birthday during the long weekend from Jan. 7 to Jan. 11. The festivities began with the traditional ASH Wednesday dinner sponsored by The Adventuresses of Sherlock Holmes at Annie Moore's, and continued with the Christopher Morley Walk led by Jim Cox and Dore Nash on Thursday morn- ing, followed by the usual lunch at McSorley's. The Baker Street Irregulars' Distinguished Speaker at the Midtown Executive Club on Thursday evening was Alan Bradley, co-author of MS. HOLMES OF BAKER STREET (2004), and author of the award-winning "Flavia de Luce" series; the title of his talk was "Ha! The Stars Are Out and the Wind Has Fallen" (his paper will be published in the next issue of The Baker Street Journal). The William Gillette Luncheon at Moran's Restaurant was well attended, as always, and the Friends of Bogie's at Baker Street (Paul Singleton and An- drew Joffe) entertained the audience with an updated version of "The Sher- lock Holmes Cable Network" (2000). The luncheon also was the occasion for Al Gregory's presentation of the annual Jan Whimsey Award (named in memory of his wife Jan Stauber), which honors the most whimsical piece in The Ser- pentine Muse last year: the winner (Jenn Eaker) received a certificate and a check for the Canonical sum of $221.17. And Otto Penzler's traditional open house at the Mysterious Bookshop provided the usual opportunities to browse and buy.

Contemporary Improvisational Theater in Poland and the United States
ACTA UNIVERSITATIS LODZIENSIS FOLIA LITTERARIA POLONICA 2(40) 2017 http://dx.doi.org/10.18778/1505-9057.40.05 Magdalena Szuster* “Alchemy and smoke in a bottle” – contemporary improvisational theater in Poland and the United States Part 1: (Re)defining Improvised Theater – the American and Polish Perspectives What Does Impro(v) Mean Anyway? The origins of improvisation are indistinct, and for most part untraceable. An academic endeavor to establish its beginnings would go unrewarded, as there is no one distinct inventor1 of improvisation. This technique, or method, had been used as means of expression in art long before Spolin or Johnstone, and far away from Chicago or London. The Atellan farce (1 BC), secular entertainers and court jesters in China (10 BC), or the frenzied improvisations in Ancient Greece (600 BC) had preceded the 16th century commedia dell’arte2 the Italian improvised per- formance based on scenarios and/or sketches. The renaissance of improvisation in the 20th century was largely brought about by experimental artists who used it as means of expression, communication and representation. As a tool, a vessel or foundation improvisation existed in theater (both formal and popular), painting, poetry and music. It was an important substance, and an interesting addition to avant-garde art. The early avant-garde theater welcomed improvisation as a means in the pro- cess of developing plays and productions, or as a component of actor training, yet an independent improvisational format was yet to be devised.

A Look at the Upright Citizens Brigade Theatre and Hidden Collections of Improv Comedy
Never Done Before, Never Seen Again: A Look at the Upright Citizens Brigade Theatre and Hidden Collections of Improv Comedy By Caroline Roll A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Moving Image Archiving and Preservation Program Department of Cinema Studies New York University May 2017 1 Table of Contents Introduction ……………………………………………………………………………………… 2 Chapter 1: A History of Improv Comedy ...……………………………………………………... 5 Chapter 2: Improv in Film and Television ...…………………………………………………… 20 Chapter 3: Case Studies: The Second City, The Groundlings, and iO Chicago ...……………... 28 Chapter 4: Assessment of the UCB Collection ……………..………………………………….. 36 5: Recommendations ………..………………………………………………………………….. 52 Conclusion ……………………………………………………………………………………... 57 Bibliography …………………………………………………………………………………… 60 Acknowledgements …...………………………………………………………………………... 64 2 Introduction All forms of live performance have a certain measure of ephemerality, but no form is more fleeting than an improvised performance, which is conceived in the moment and then never performed again. The most popular contemporary form of improvised performance is improv comedy, which maintains a philosophy that is deeply entrenched in the idea that a show only happens once. The history, principles, and techniques of improv are well documented in texts and in moving images. There are guides on how to improvise, articles and books on its development and cultural impact, and footage of comedians discussing improv in interviews and documentaries. Yet recordings of improv performances are much less prevalent, despite the fact that they could have significant educational, historical, or entertainment value. Unfortunately, improv theatres are concentrated in major cities, and people who live outside of those areas lack access to improv shows. This limits the scope for researchers as well.

Despite this, there have been efforts in some legislatures and the courts to impose liability on insurers for risks they did not, and could not responsibly, write, while some in Congress are considering prospective proposals that would ask insurers to accept future risks that are not insurable.
