Lawler, Kenosha, will once again direct the production. Other cast members in the production include Thom Powers, Kenosha; Mark Fraser, Kenosha; Cameron Spencer, Kenosha; Byron Heusdens, Racine; Steve Brown, Salem. Brown and Michael Ullstrup adapted the script for the WGTD Radio Theater. The public is invited to become part of the studio audience. Admission is free and no tickets or reservations are needed.

  • Announces: the SHADOW Composed and Conducted By
    Announces: THE SHADOW Composed and Conducted by JERRY GOLDSMITH Intrada Special Collection Volume ISC 204 Universal Pictures' 1994 The Shadow allowed composer Jerry Goldsmith to put his imprimatur on the darkly gothic phase of the superhero genre that developed in the 1990s. Writing for a large orchestra, Goldsmith created a score that found the perfect mix between heroism and menace and resulted in one of his longest scores. Goldsmith’s main title music introduces many of the score’s core elements: an unnerving pitch bend, played by synthesizers; a grandly powerful brass melody for the Shadow; and a bouncing electronic figure that will become a key rhythmic device throughout the score. Goldsmith’s classic sounding Shadow theme and the score’s large scale orchestrations complemented the film’s period setting and lavish look, while the composer’s trademark electronics helped better position the film for a contemporary audience. When the original soundtrack for The Shadow was released in 1994, it presented only a fraction of Jerry Goldsmith’s hour-and-twenty-minute score, reducing the composer’s wealth of action material to two cues and barely hinting at the complete score’s range and scope. In particular, Goldsmith’s elegant and haunting love theme—one of his best of the ’90s—plays only briefly at the very end of the album. This premiere presentation of the complete score represents one of the most substantial restorations of a Goldsmith soundtrack, illuminated by the fact that just 30 minutes of the full 85-minute score appeared on the original 1994 soundtrack album.

  • 1 Living Beside the Shadow of Death by Grace Lukach It's Hard to Say
    1 Living Beside The Shadow of Death By Grace Lukach It’s hard to say when my Grandpa really began to die. Complications from an elective back surgery in 2001 forced him to spend two hundred non-consecutive days of the next year institutionalized—either in the hospital, nursing home, or in-house rehabilitation center. On three separate occasions he was put on a ventilator and for nearly nineteen of those two hundred days he relied on this machine to live. It seemed as though he were dying, but somehow, after all those months of suffering, he recovered his strength and returned home. He had escaped the clutches of death. And though he never again walked independently and would dream of physical activities as simple as driving, he was able to share monthly meals with old co-workers, attend weekly mass, and watch his children—and their children—grow up for six more years. Because of modern medicine, my Grandpa experienced six more years of being alive. But then my Grandpa fell and broke his hip. Back in the hospital, he was intubated and extubated and intubated again. A permanent pacemaker was implanted as well as a dialysis port, a tracheotomy, and a feeding tube. He was on and off the ventilator. Death was the enemy and everyone was fighting with every bit of energy they could muster, but nothing could keep him alive this time. After four months in the hospital, my Grandpa finally died. My Grandma’s journey to death is much clearer. She was a fighter who had regained full mobility after suffering a debilitating stroke that paralyzed her right side at the age of fifty-four.

  • What the Shadows Know 99
    What the Shadows Know 99 What the Shadows Know: The Crime- Fighting Hero the Shadow and His Haunting of Late-1950s Literature Erik Mortenson During the Depression era of the 1930s and the war years of the 1940s, mil- lions of Americans sought escape from the tumultuous times in pulp magazines, comic books, and radio programs. In the face of mob violence, joblessness, war, and social upheaval, masked crusaders provided a much needed source of secu- rity where good triumphed over evil and wrongs were made right. Heroes such as Doc Savage, the Flash, Wonder Woman, Green Lantern, Captain America, and Superman were always there to save the day, making the world seem fair and in order. This imaginative world not only was an escape from less cheery realities but also ended up providing nostalgic memories of childhood for many writers of the early Cold War years. But not all crime fighters presented such an optimistic outlook. The Shad- ow, who began life in a 1931 pulp magazine but eventually crossed over into radio, was an ambiguous sort of crime fighter. Called “the Shadow” because he moved undetected in these dark spaces, his name provided a hint to his divided character. Although he clearly defended the interests of the average citizen, the Shadow also satisfied the demand for a vigilante justice. His diabolical laughter is perhaps the best sign of his ambiguity. One assumes that it is directed at his adversaries, but its vengeful and spiteful nature strikes fear into victims, as well as victimizers. He was a tour guide to the underworld, providing his fans with a taste of the shady, clandestine lives of the criminals he pursued.

  • The Shadow of an Invisible Cathedral
    THE SHADOW OF AN INVISIBLE CATHEDRAL Change how a person conceives of space in his or her mind, I reflected, and you transform how they experience it in the world. I was in a state of near panic when the phone rang. Broke and unemployed, I was startled to recognize the voice of Berkeley’s architecture department director as she told me that a senior faculty member had died during the final days of summer and the school wanted me to teach her graduate seminar, Theories of Architectural Space. Frightened by the prospect of teaching a class for which I was grossly ill-prepared, yet desperate for work, I quickly reshaped the course in my mind into something I felt qualified to teach. “Sure I can do it,” I told the director after an awkward silence, “no problem.” My life at that point was falling apart. I had just completed my Ph.D. in architectural history and theory, and I was already weary of architecture as both a discipline and a means of employment. Unable to afford Berkeley rents, I had moved to a rundown Oakland apartment by a highway overpass. There weren’t any jobs, and I spent most of my days fantasizing an alternative life for myself as a successful novelist. Teaching was my only chance of supporting myself, so I used my love of fiction writing to jump-start my interest in architecture and molded the course into a seven-week graduate seminar I re-titled Spatial Narratives. Rather than presenting a survey of discursive touchstones on space, as the deceased professor had, I would have the students read short stories and excerpts from novels in which buildings figured prominently.

  • Excerpts from Hagakure (In the Shadow of Leaves)
    Primary Source Document with Questions (DBQs) EXCERPTS FROM HAGAKURE (IN THE SHADOW OF LEAVES) Introduction Hagakure (In the Shadow of Leaves) has come to be known as a foundational text of bushidō, the “way of the warrior.” Dictated between 1709 and 1716 by a retired samurai, Yamamoto Tsunetomo (1659-1719), to a young retainer, Tashirō Tsuramoto (1678-1748), Hagakure was less a rigorous philosophical exposition than the spirited reflections of a seasoned warrior. Although it became well known in the 1930s, when a young generation of nationalists embraced the supposed spirit of bushidō, Hagakure was not widely circulated in the Tokugawa period beyond Saga domain on the southern island of Kyushu, Yamamoto Tsunetomo’s home. Selected Document Excerpts with Questions From Sources of Japanese Tradition, edited by Wm. Theodore de Bary, Carol Gluck, and Arthur L. Tiedemann, 2nd ed., vol. 2 (New York: Columbia University Press, 2005), 476-478. © 2005 Columbia University Press. Reproduced with the permission of the publisher. All rights reserved. Excerpts from Hagakure (In the Shadow of Leaves) I have found that the Way of the samurai is death. This means that when you are compelled to choose between life and death, you must quickly choose death. There is nothing more to it than that. You just make up your mind and go forward. The idea that to die without accomplishing your purpose is undignified and meaningless, just dying like a dog, is the pretentious bushidō of the city slickers of Kyoto and Osaka. In a situation when you have to choose between life and death, there is no way to make sure that your purpose will be accomplished.
