  • Available from TCG Books: I’Ll Eat You Last and Peter and Alice by John Logan
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE CONTACT: Dafina McMillan May 21, 2013 [email protected] | 212-609-5955 Available from TCG Books: I’ll Eat You Last and Peter and Alice by John Logan NEW YORK, NY – Theatre Communications Group (TCG) is pleased to announce the availability of two new plays by John Logan: I’ll Eat You Last: A Chat with Sue Mengers and Peter and Alice, both published by Oberon Books (London). The three-time Oscar-nominated screenwriter of such films as Skyfall and Hugo returns with two new plays on Broadway and in London’s West End, respectively. I’ll Eat You Last is a one-woman show about legendary Hollywood super-agent Sue Mengers, whose clients included Barbra Streisand, Cher, Gene Hackman and Mike Nichols. Currently on Broadway, starring Bette Midler, I’ll Eat You Last is nominated for the 2013 Drama League awards for Outstanding Production of a Broadway or Off-Broadway Play. Based on the real individuals that inspired J.M. Barrie’s Peter Pan and Lewis Carroll’s Alice in Wonderland, Peter and Alice tells the story of when Alice Liddell Hargreaves met Peter Llewelyn Davies at the opening of a Lewis Carroll exhibition in 1932. Currently playing to acclaim in the West End, Judi Dench stars as Alice and Ben Whishaw as Peter in this new play where enchantment and reality collide. “A delectable soufflé of a solo show… It’s a heady sensation, thanks to the buoyant, witty writing of Mr. Logan… Tangy and funny.” — New York Times on I’ll Eat You Last “A haunting play that sounds profound notes of loss and grief..

And we also most fortunately know that it really doesn’t matter. —Raymond Chandler, letter to Charles Morton, October 9, 1950 Introduction: First Goodbyes Jack Nicholson, a boy, could never forget sitting at the bar with John J. Nicholson, Jack’s namesake and maybe even his father, a soft little dapper Irishman in glasses. He kept neatly combed what was left of his red hair and had long ago separated from Jack’s mother, their high school romance gone the way of any available drink. They told Jack that John had once been a great ballplayer and that he decorated store windows, all five Steinbachs in Asbury Park, though the only place Jack ever saw this man was in the bar, day-drinking apricot brandy and Hennessy, shot after shot, quietly waiting for the mercy to kick in.

    Can I Go Now?: The Life Of Sue Mengers, Hollywood's First Superagent Download Free (EPUB, PDF) “To call Sue Mengers a ‘character’ is an understatement, unless the word is written in all-caps, followed by an exclamation point and modified by an expletive. And based on Brian Kellow’s assessment in his thoroughly researched Can I Go Now? even that description may be playing down her personality a bit.â€Â —Jen Chaney, The Washington Post• A NY Times Culture Bestseller • An Entertainment Weekly Best Pop Culture Book of 2015 • A Booklist Top Ten Arts Book of 2015 •A lively and colorful biography of Hollywood’s first superagent—one of the most outrageous showbiz characters of the 1960s and 1970s whose clients included Barbra Streisand, Ryan O’Neal, Faye Dunaway, Michael Caine, and Candice BergenBefore Sue Mengers hit the scene in the mid-1960s, talent agents remained quietly in the background. But staying in the background was not possible for Mengers. Irrepressible and loaded with chutzpah, she became a driving force of Creative Management Associates (which later became ICM) handling the era’s preeminent stars.A true original with a gift for making the biggest stars in Hollywood listen to hard truths about their careers and personal lives, Mengers became a force to be reckoned with. Her salesmanship never stopped. In 1979, she was on a plane that was commandeered by a hijacker, who wanted Charlton Heston to deliver a message on television. Mengers was incensed, wondering why the hijacker wanted Heston, when she could get him Barbra Streisand.Acclaimed biographer Brian Kellow spins an irresistible tale, exhaustively researched and filled with anecdotes about and interviews more than two hundred show-business luminaries.

    CHAPTER • HOLLYWOOD'S FALL AND RIS£: 1960-1980 he postwar struggles for racial equality in the United States achieved T some success in the 1960s, during the presidencies of John F Kennedy and Lyndon Johnson. Both administrations promoted liberal domestic policies (which Johnson termed the "Great Society"), including the pas­ sage of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Johnson's "War on Poverty" insti­ tuted work-study programs in colleges and created the Job Corps. At the same time, these administrations carried on the policy of containing com­ munism within the East-West conception of the cold war. The United States had begun to support the French fight against Ho Chi Minh's Com­ munist fOtces in Vietnam in the 1950s. In 1963, the year in which Kennedy was assassinated, America decisively entered the hostilities. Over the fol­ lowing nine years, the United States would send hundreds of thousands of soldiers into a war that became increasingly unpopular at home. The early 1960s saw a new fra nkness a bout sexual beha vior, accel­ erated by the invention of the birth-control pill and changing vie'vvs of women's roles.

It wasn’t simply that so many things bothered him, or that when they did, they irritated him to the fullest possible degree. But where others avoided conflict, he cultivated it and embraced it. His fury nourished him, making him intense and unpredictable, but also keeping him focused and productive. He was not generally the sort of person who felt the need to clench his fists in violence or submerge his sorrows in drink.

  • WOMEN in FILM
    WOMEN in FILM First Lady Florence Harding operates a film camera on the White House lawn. The First Lady’s engagement with film offered a sense of credibility to the industry. It also shows how popular film had become by the 1920s and how women remained involved in and out of the film studios. Library of Congress, LC-USZ62-132073. Women have been central to the film industry since its inception in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. From Nickelodeons to full-length feature films and from silent films to talkies, as writers, directors, actors, and audience members, women have influenced the trajectory of the film industry. Female stardom was an essential component of the rise of the industry, though many of these women were celebrated more for their appearances than for their acting ability. While the popularity of certain female stars offered them legendary status, the kinds of roles they were asked to play often reinforced traditional gender roles. However, women actually played a powerful role in shaping the early film industry. As both consumers of film and professionals in the field, both in front of and behind the camera, women dramatically affected the development of film. Women behind the camera: Women as directors Prior to the 1930s, Hollywood provided many opportunities for women to work on films behind-the- scenes. Many studios had prominent female directors, and female screenwriters created some of the most popular movies of the period, while female film editors exercised creative control over the visual appearance of film. A few women even headed their own studios.

A Letter from the President Fall 2014 Dear Subscriber: After 22 years, you’ll see that this traditional letter is being sent to you by someone new. Stephen Sultan is now enjoying a well-deserved retirement, although he remains onboard here at the Play Service as a trusted and valued consultant. I became the president — only the sixth to head the company since its founding in 1936 — in January, after years of serving as an agent representative on our Board of Directors. I couldn’t be happier in my new position, as DPS has always meant a great deal to me. And I am extremely fortunate to work with a wonderful staff, whose dedication, intelligence, and good humor are an inspiration. The original charter for Dramatists Play Service empha- sizes the importance of the word “service” in our name. I think you’ll find that the service to both our customers and our playwrights continues at a higher level than ever before. As always, there are some great new additions to our catalogue this year. I’m very happy that we have acquired all five nominees for Best Play in this season’s Tony Awards, with ALL THE WAY, Robert Schenkkan’s riveting portrait of LBJ and the politics of power and compromise, leading the pack.
