Page 3 The Little Theatre-On The Square, Inc. Guy S. Little, Jr. founded The Little Theatre-On The Square in 1957 and was the producing director through 1978 when he left Sulli- van and became producer at the famed Melody Top Theatre in Milwaukee, Wis. Sullivan Theatre, Inc., based in Charleston, took over operations of The Little Theatre-On The Square for the 1979 season. The theatre was dark in 1980. In the spring of 1981, a group of local citizens, wanting to continue the tradition of high quality, professional theatre in Sullivan, formed Friends Of The Little Theatre, Inc., a non-profit corporation that assumed the responsibility to set general policies regarding the programs and the operations of the theatre. In January of 1990, the corporation underwent a major reorganization, changed its name to The Little Theatre-On The Square, Inc. and expanded its membership to include representatives from more towns throughout the theatre's market area.

    Family Christmas Concert – 21st December 2013 From the Chair... Ladies and Gentlemen, boys and girls: Nice to see you, to see you nice! I hope that all of you ‘Strictly’ fans have set your TV recorder for the Final! Strictly Come Dancing is fast becoming one of the current associations with Christmas and hopefully we can stir some memories of the Season through our festive music this evening. Going to the ballet has long been a popular Christmas treat. Ballets like many fairy tales, often have a sinister side to their plot, Coppelia is no exception. A young man (betrothed to another) becomes infatuated with a life-sized doll and is lured by the doll’s maker to sacrifice his spirit to enable the doll to come to life. Fortunately, he is shown his folly by his true love who dresses up as the doll and tricks the inventor. However, all eventually turns out well and ends happily ever after. Many of you will be familiar with the Nutcracker ballet. Tonight we will be playing part of The Nutcracker Suite. Tchaikovsky himself made a selection of eight of the numbers from the ballet, which he intended for concert performance. The complete Suite was featured in Walt Disney’s Fantasia. There are many other more modern traditions associated with Christmas, none more so than the Snowman by Howard Blake who incidentally celebrated his 75th birthday in October. We are delighted to welcome Stephen, Mike, Linda and Jennifer as the soloists for our performance this evening. For some, there is little else that epitomises Christmas more than the 1954 musical White Christmas with music by Irving Berlin.

    Broadway Starts to Rock: Musical Theater Orchestrations and Character, 1968-1975 By Elizabeth Sallinger M.M., Duquesne University, 2010 B.A., Pennsylvania State University, 2008 Submitted to the graduate degree program in Musicology and the Graduate Faculty of the University of Kansas in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. Chair: Paul R. Laird Roberta Freund Schwartz Bryan Kip Haaheim Colin Roust Leslie Bennett Date Defended: 5 December 2016 ii The dissertation committee for Elizabeth Sallinger certifies that this is the approved version of the following dissertation: Broadway Starts to Rock: Musical Theater Orchestrations and Character, 1968-1975 Chair: Paul R. Laird Date Approved: 5 December 2016 iii Abstract In 1968, the sound of the Broadway pit was forever changed with the rock ensemble that accompanied Hair. The musical backdrop for the show was appropriate for the countercultural subject matter, taking into account the popular genres of the time that were connected with such figures, and marrying them to other musical styles to help support the individual characters. Though popular styles had long been part of Broadway scores, it took more than a decade for rock to become a major influence in the commercial theater. The associations an audience had with rock music outside of a theater affected perception of the plot and characters in new ways and allowed for shows to be marketed toward younger demographics, expanding the audience base. Other shows contemporary to Hair began to include rock music and approaches as well; composers and orchestrators incorporated instruments such as electric guitar, bass, and synthesizer, amplification in the pit, and backup singers as components of their scores.
