Dissertation Is to Determine That Voice And, in So
“JUST ENOUGH WOMAN FOR ME:” AN ANALYSIS OF THE UNINTENTIONALLY FEMINIST LYRICS OF DOROTHY FIELDS by JESSICA KRISTIN STULTZ (Under the Direction of Freda Scott Giles) ABSTRACT Dorothy Fields was a Broadway lyricist and librettist. Long overlooked by scholarship, the work of Fields is landmark. For much of the Golden Age of the American musical, Fields was one of the only women writing for the Broadway theatre. As such, her voice is distinct in many ways. The project of this dissertation is to determine that voice and, in so doing, to establish her unique contribution to the canon of musical theatre. INDEX WORDS: “Dorothy Fields, Broadway, musicals, Golden Age, lyricist, librettist, Tony Awards, Herbert Fields, Lew Fields, Cy Coleman, theatre” “JUST ENOUGH WOMAN FOR ME:” AN ANALYSIS OF THE UNINTENTIONALLY FEMINIST LYRICS OF DOROTHY FIELDS by JESSICA KRISTIN STULTZ BA, Furman University, 1999 MA, University of Kentucky, 2005 A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate Faculty of The University of Georgia in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY ATHENS, GEORGIA 2011 © 2011 Jessica Kristin Stultz All Rights Reserved “JUST ENOUGH WOMAN FOR ME:” AN ANALYSIS OF THE UNINTENTIONALLY FEMINIST LYRICS OF DOROTHY FIELDS by JESSICA KRISTIN STULTZ Major Professor: Freda Scott Giles Committee: John Kundert-Gibbs David Saltz Judith Sebesta Electronic Version Approved: Maureen Grasso Dean of the Graduate School The University of Georgia May 2011 DEDICATION Mom, you let me watch Annie every single day.

A Musical Tribute to Frank Sinatra Notes on Songs (Compiled from All Over the Internet by A.C
My Way: a Musical Tribute to Frank Sinatra Notes on Songs (compiled from all over the Internet by A.C. Thomas) “Strangers in the Night” was released in May 1966. • It is credited to Bert Kaempfert with English lyrics by Charles Singleton and Eddie Snyder, but there is plenty of controversy over who actually wrote the song. • The track was recorded on April 11, 1966, one month before the rest of Sinatra's album, which also used the title. Hal Blaine was the drummer on the record and Glen Campbell played rhythm guitar. At the session an angry Sinatra turned on Campbell, who had been brought in at the last moment. Campbell did not know the song and busked his way through the first take while listening to the tune. Sinatra was used to recording in a single take, and when told he would have to sing it again, he glared at Campbell and shouted, “Is that guy with us or is he sleeping?”. • One of the most memorable and recognizable features of the record is Sinatra’s scat improvisation of the melody (on take two) with the syllables “doo-be-doo- be-doo” as the song fades to the end. For the CD Nothing but the Best, the song was remastered and the running time is 2:45 instead of the usual 2:35. The extra ten seconds is just a continuation of Sinatra’s scat singing. • Sinatra despised the song, calling it at one time “a piece of shit” and “the worst fucking song that I have ever heard”.

STUDY GUIDE & DRAMATURGY About the Show City of Angels
STUDY GUIDE & DRAMATURGY About the Show City of Angels City of Angels opened on Broadway at the Virginia Theatre on December 11, 1989. It ran for 879 performances before closing on January 19, 1992. It also enjoyed a run in West End at Prince of Wales Theatre in 1993. Michael Blakemore was the director and Robin Wagner was the scenic designer. The opening night cast included Gregg Edelman as Stine, James Naughton as Stone, René Auberjonois as both Irwin S. Irving and Buddy Fidler, Randy Graff as Donna and Oolie, Dee Hoty as Carla Haywood and Alaura Kingsley, and Kay McClelland as Gabby and Bobbi. Because the show features two stories happening at the same time, every actor, except for the ones playing Stine and Stone, doubled as another role. City of Angels was nominated for and won many awards. Most notably, it won the 1990 Tony Awards for Actor in a Musical (James Naughton), Book of a Musical (Larry Gelbart), Featured Actress in a Musical (Randy Graff), Best Musical, Original Score (Cy Coleman and David Zippel), and Scenic Design for a play or a musical (Robin Wagner). It was nominated for many other awards as well, such as Actor in a Musical (Gregg Edelman), Direction of a Musical (Michael Blakemore), Costume Design for a play or musical (Florence Klotz), and Lighting Design for a play or a musical (Paul Gallo). City of Angels features two stories that are occurring at the same time. On one hand, there is Stine, a crime writer, who is attempting to adapt a novel of his for the big screen while facing problems both at work and at home, and on the other, there is Stone, the protagonist of Stine’s novel, attempting to solve a missing person’s case that quickly turns into an even more complicated mystery.
