Did Taylor draw on her own life experi- ences when prepping the role? “I have four little sisters so I’m sure I toyed with abusing girl power at home when my parents weren’t watching,” she confesses with a smile and a very pronounced wink. | August Wilson Theatre, 245 W. 52nd St., 877.250.2929 PHOTOS: THE CAST OF “MEAN GIRLS”: (LEFT TO RIGHT) ASHLEY PARK, LOUDERMAN, TAYLOR KATE ROCKWELLLINK CIRCUS,” BRIGITTE AND BARRETT LACOMBE WILBERT WEED, ©2017 JOAN MARCUS; JEREMY IRONS AND LESLEY MANVILLE IN “LONG JOURNEY DAY’S INTO NIGHT,” HUGO GLENDINNING; ISABELLA ROSSELLINI IN “LINK 6 IN NEW YORK | MAY 2018 | INNEWYORK.COM E~NYCIN_180500_Footlights.indd 6 4/6/18 11:13 AM 102328-A1-3.inddNYCIN_180500_0C2_007.indd 1 7 12/1/174/5/18 10:58:5810:42:30 AMPM THE RETAIL SCENE by Lois Levine in store market editor Anna Ratman Mother’s Day 3.

Franko/Julia Suszynski [email protected]; 202-600-4055 ARENA STAGE AT THE MEAD CENTER FOR AMERICAN THEATER ANNOUNCES THE 2010/11 INAUGURAL SEASON FOR NEW THREE-THEATER CAMPUS With more than 45 projects in homecoming season, Arena Stage returns to campus as a national center for the production, presentation, development and study of American theater (Washington, D.C.) Arena Stage Artistic Director Molly Smith announces the D.C.-based pioneering theater company’s 60th season filled with award-winning artists and projects to celebrate the grand opening of Arena Stage at the Mead Center for American Theater. The 2010/11 inaugural season includes eight full productions, seven presentations from the National Endowment for the Arts New Play Development Program and public readings from all 30 of Edward Albee’s works, totaling at least 45 projects produced and presented by Arena Stage in the inaugural year at the Mead Center. With the opening next fall, Arena Stage will fully become a national center for production, presentation, development and study of American theater. “The moment we have been waiting for has arrived—we are heading home,” shares Artistic Director Molly Smith. “After 11 years of planning and two and a half years of construction, the beautiful new Mead Center for American Theater will be ready to welcome audiences and artists this fall.” The new campus includes the renovation of the two existing performance spaces, the Fichandler Stage and the Kreeger Theater, and the creation of the 200-seat Arlene and Robert Kogod Cradle—a venue dedicated to cradling risk surrounding new or radically re-envisioned productions of American theater.

  • Confrontation, Simulation, Admiration
    Confrontation, Simulation, Admiration The Wooster Group’s Poor Theater Kermit Dunkelberg The punning title of The Wooster Group’s Poor Theater, shown as a work-in- progress in the spring and late fall of at the Performing Garage on Wooster Street in New York, invites many interpretations. Does it suggest the- atre that is: Poorly executed? Poorly funded? To be lamented? All of the above? Is this the Wooster Group’s retort to Grotowski’s “poor theatre” of reduced means and monastic discipline (Grotowski ), or their own version of it? The Wooster Group’s self-mocking, reverent/irreverent, high-tech/low-tech, nostalgic/derisive production questions the state of contemporary performance by trying on the styles of a vanished group (the Polish Laboratory Theatre, dis- solved in ) and a vanishing one (the Ballett Frankfurt, disbanded in August —half a year after Poor Theater had its first showing). My focus in this article is on the sections of Poor Theater that deal with Grotowski’s Polish Laboratory Theatre (–). I see the Wooster Group’s production in light of the history of reception/rejection/appropriation of Grotowski’s work in the United States. In the wake of Grotowski’s first American workshop at New York University in , Richard Schechner founded The Performance Group. In the mid-s, the Wooster Group grew out of The Performance Group, be- coming an independent entity in . Poor Theater is in part a confrontation with an ancestor. In the spring program, “The Director” noted the importance of ancestors: The writers, the great writers of the past, have been very important to me, even if I have struggled against them.

WHO AM I REALLY?: QUESTIONING THE PATRIARCHAL “GIRL WORLD” TO FIND IDENTITY IN MEAN GIRLS, HEATHERS THE MUSICAL, AND CARRIE: THE MUSICAL MEGAN RENNER 105 Pages Both musicals and stories about teenage girls are genres that tend to be overlooked by scholars, and to not receive serious analysis. Some scholars may dismiss these genres as being shallow and unworthy of scrutiny through a critical lens. However, much may be learned about patriarchal influence on teenage girls in musicals such as Mean Girls, Heathers the Musical and Carrie: The Musical. This thesis analyzes the patriarchal influence on the teen girl characters in these three musicals, using Girl Studies and feminist theory. This study applies arguments that state that patriarchal influence is what causes girls to form cliques, in order for them to feel powerful in a world that disenfranchises them, and applies it to these musicals.

Splashed on the map in 1984 at the dingy yet inspired Limbo Lounge as one of the burgeoning artists of New York’s East Village arts scene, Busch’s scandalously sex-charged, cross-dressing classic, Vampire Lesbians of Sodom quickly became a theater phenomenon.

It is a great privilege to gather and share stories on this beautiful territory, which has been the site of human activity — and therefore storytelling — for many thousands of years. We wish to honour the ancestral guardians of this land and its waterways: the Anishinaabe, the Haudenosaunee Confederacy, the Wendat, and the Attiwonderonk. Today many Indigenous peoples continue to call this land home and act as its stewards, and this responsibility extends to all peoples, to share and care for this land for generations to come.
