Smith 3 Welcome Back What a time it has been! Our world has experienced unprecedented disruption since we last gathered in the spring of 2020 in our beautiful venues to witness exquisite music, dance, and theatre together. Throughout these many long and painful months of separation and isolation, I have been yearning for the time when we can be together once again. It appears that time is finally now upon us! I am absolutely thrilled to share our plans for celebrating the University of Georgia Performing Arts Center’s historic 25th anniversary season throughout the fall of 2021 and spring of 2022. Our silver anniversary season will feature a variety of acclaimed guest artists—some new to us and some returning favorites—with an equally wide variety of personal life experiences. They will come to us from across the United States and several different countries. Their experiences inform their work, and we will, for a brief moment in time, commune together as the universal languages of music, spoken word, and movement unite us in hope and healing. Not only has the world changed significantly since we first opened our doors 25 years ago, it has changed dramatically in the last year as we have endured the devastating impact of a global pandemic, social injustice, political uncertainty, and any number of other things.

That spring day when I first received Leave Your Sleep, I knew I was in the possession of something incredibly special. Little did I know then it was the beginning of a love affair and journey that would take me to new heights, challenge me in extraordinary ways, and allow in me a profound depth of love for humanity that I didn’t know I was capable of. Over the course of five years, Natalie Merchant researched and wrote Leave Your Sleep. She adapted the poems to music, collaborating with more than a hundred musicians. She transformed the work by creating an exquisite picture book with Barbara McClintock. It was at this moment that I knew this extraordinary work needed to be in front of children – all children, but I didn’t know how it would come to fruition. Leave Your Sleep for Education was born out of the passion and vision of a dedicated team of individuals who believe in the importance of the arts in education.

  • Shakespeare Newsletter
    Do you have five minutes, even three? That’s all you need to read one article in this newsletter. If you like it, there’s more, read on. If ways that Bill still matters not, well you get the idea what we’re up to here. an occasional newsletter, Fall 2012 Incorporating Friends into Shakespeare By Blair Warner Shakespeare. The greatest playwright ever, whom many fear, including myself. But I am here to tell you that Bill is not so bad. Reading Shakespeare is less dif- ficult if you think of the plays as people you know. Not the plays, of course, but the characters in the plays. Just envision people that you know as you read the scenes—pretend they are the ones on stage. It might sound silly, but it really helped me while reading Taming of the Shrew. I imagined one of my close friends Ashley playing the role of Bianca and her younger sister Nicole playing the role of Katherina. Both sisters have personalities that can be compared to the two sisters in the play. Ashley, who is soft-spoken at times, is very nice and peaceful, like Bianca. She gets along with everyone that she meets. Nicole is much more like Katherina. She is strong-willed, says whatever happens to be on her mind, and at times can be angry. People tend to be intimidated by her mannerisms. Just like Kate in Taming. Imagining the similarities between these pairs of sisters as I read made me laugh at times, enjoying Taming more and more as I read.

    Worksheet Cloud: WORKSHEET GRADE: 6 ENGLISH: Wonder Novel ___________________________________________________________________________ Activity In this activity, you will be learning to read visual language and intention in a music video. You’ll notice at the beginning of each section of Wonder that there is a lyric from a song printed. The one on page 81 is from Space Oddity by David Bowie. All these lyrics reflect the story and its characters. The main lyric quoted is from Wonder by Natalie Merchant. The first two verses of this song are printed at the beginning of the book. Natalie Merchant is an American singer and songwriter. As a teenager, she worked with children with special needs. These children were in institutional care and many of them had unpredictable behaviour. Natalie overcame her initial fear and became good friends with the children she worked with. She wrote the song, Wonder, about a woman with disabilities who overcame them with the help of her adopted family. View the video of Wonder by Natalie Merchant. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6zpYFAzhAZY You may need to watch the video a few times. After you have watched the video,answer these questions: 1. Do you like the music and the video? Why/why not? 2. What types of people are featured in the video? 3. Who appears to be singing in the video? What message do you think this sends? 4.

TRIBUTE TO PROFESSOR CARROLL "HE WAS SO KIND AND GENEROUS" Meredith J. Harbach * John had many gifts, and he shared them generously with his colleagues and students at the law school. As I have reflected on the gift of his life and the depth of our loss, many stories and con­ versations have come to mind. But none is more profound-or more appropriate, I think-than the anecdote that came to me immediately after I found out about John's death. I arrived at the law school on Friday, March 9, 2012 to the news that John had died suddenly the day before. I was devastat­ ed. And I could not help but be struck by the uncanny timing. Ex­ actly a year before, on March 9, 2011, John was with my family and me at Virginia Commonwealth University Medical Center. John came to pray with us, and cry with us, as our tiny baby Rose-just two days old-fought for her life in the Neonatal In­ tensive Care Unit.

  • ENGLISH 1114 (Sections 001 and 050): Reading Poetry
    1 ENGLISH 1114 (Sections 001 and 050): Reading Poetry From Bard to Rock Star Course Description We’ll explore poetry about love, social conscience, meaning, and belief. We’ll start each theme with Shakespeare, touch on some Romantic and Modern poetry, and then spend most of our time on contemporary poetry. We’ll look at traditional forms such as sonnets and odes, as well as poetry that’s integrated with music, drama, and film. We’ll also look at several texts in translation from French, Italian, and Spanish. Course Texts You don’t need to buy a text or course pack. You’ll use the readings in this file, and you’ll download lyrics from the Net. I’ve not assigned a poetry text and won’t test you on poetic terms, such as those in the “Six Categories” section of the course file. The sixth category, “Style,” lists the most common terms, such as image and metaphor. You don’t need to print out this entire file, although you’ll need to print out the Readings section. I don’t allow the use of electronic devices in class, so make sure to bring hard copies of all assigned reading (you’ll need these hard copies for the exams anyway). Be advised that because the exams are open book, there’s a strict limit on the number of notes you can make on the text pages.

Sarah hails from Minneapolis, Minnesota, where from a young age, she immersed herself in her parent’s eclectic record collection before finally falling in love with the storytelling and songcraft in country music. Spending a few years in Music City instilled a traditional songwriting sensibility that has earned her latest album Ordinary Things national airplay, critical acclaim, and has propelled her into the national spotlight. The marriage between Morris’s captivating vocals, sharply crafted lyrics and her talented band, the Sometimes Guys (Thomas Nordlund, Andrew Foreman, and Zachary Schmidt) creates a signature sound steeped in folk-rock, alt-country and sprinkled with a bit of pop. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Andriana Lehr - Singer/Songwriter, Americana Folk SOLO ​ OR DUO Official Website Bandcamp Facebook The Midwest has a strange way of framing darkness in the light.
