  • Casting Women, Fat Stigma, and Broadway Bodies
    The Journal of American Drama and Theatre (JADT) https://jadt.commons.gc.cuny.edu "Must Be Heavyset": Casting Women, Fat Stigma, and Broadway Bodies by Ryan Donovan The Journal of American Drama and Theatre Volume 31, Number 3 (Spring 2019) ISNN 2376-4236 ©2019 by Martin E. Segal Theatre Center “We need a young girl who is—what shall we say—chubby/fat/big. But a healthy version of a fat girl, because she is dancing her ass off for two hours.” —Bernard Telsey, casting director[1] Introduction Casting director Craig Burns worked on Broadway’s Hairspray (2002) from its first workshops, and it remains his favorite production because of the opportunity to cast people who “weren’t normally considered for leads in a show, and now all of a sudden these girls are getting a chance because we need a fat girl. There was so much joy in that.”[2] Katrina Rose Dideriksen was one such woman given the chance to play Hairspray’s Tracy Turnblad on Broadway and on tour. She remembered feeling excited to play Tracy because she “is the ingénue, she wins the guy, she saves the day . she’s funny and she’s lovable and all those things, but in this very real-girl way.” Dideriksen then noticed a “weight clause” in her contract: “It was really this underlying pinch to realize that subconsciously I was being told I was still wrong for it, that there was something I had to fix. I don’t think they realized how hurtful, and how anti-Hairspray it really was for them to be like, ‘Lose 20 pounds.’”[3] Apart from a few roles (including Tracy), fat women are almost never cast in roles beyond the comedic sidekick or best friend in commercial theatre.

  • Cry–Baby” Title Treatment #2
    #2 Cry–Baby” Title Treatment #2 My “Case Study” Series is an attempt to answer the many ques- tions I receive about my work. It’s difficult and time-consuming to answer each and every question from students and profes- sionals, so I felt that creating this series might be helpful to others in understanding my creative process by using specific examples. Where do my ideas come from? How do I develop them, transforming them from crude ideas to finished art? By retracing the steps I followed on several projects I hope to be able to provide some insight into this process. I’d like to mention this about this process: although many of my projects have similarities, each and every project has it’s own peculiarities, and therefore may have to follow a very different path from what is described in the following Case Study. This #2 in the series follows the steps I took to create the title treatment for a Broadway musical. PROJECT: To design a title treatment for the upcoming musical adaptaion to the Broadway stage of the 1990 John Waters cult classic film “Cry-Baby” which had originally featured Johnny Depp, Iggy Pop, Polly Bergen, Traci Lords, Ricki Lake, and Troy Donohue. “Cry-Baby–The Musical” is scheduled to open on Broad- way in the Spring of 2008. CLIENT: Serino Coyne, an ad agency which “services the world’s leading theatrical producers and the most prestigious theatres and performing arts centers in the nation”. I worked with Moira Deakin, Creative Projects Manager for Serino Coyne.

  • Meeting Divine: a “Hairspray” Story As Told by Jerry Stiller
    The Academy Follow We are The Academy of Motion Picture Arts & Sciences and we champion the power of human imagination. Jul 27 · 6 min read Divine and Jerry Stiller in “Hairspray” (1988) Meeting Divine: A “Hairspray” Story As told by Jerry Stiller In honor of Hairspray’s 30th anniversary, the Academy hosted a reunion with the cast and crew, hosted by Barry Jenkins. Below is Jerry Stiller’s recollection of the relationships he built while working on the lm. In 1988, I was asked to play a role in Hairspray, which was lming in Baltimore, director John Waters’ hometown. Sonny Bono and Deborah Harry were also in the lm. I agreed to do Wilbur Turnblad, the husband of Divine. Pia Zadora played a ‘60s beatnik and Ricki Lake played my daughter. The word “crossover lm” was heard in the industry. The script had all the makings of a sleeper. John Waters introduced himself. He was then 41 years old. He joked about his pencil-thin mustache. “I think I saw it on some actor in a B- movie and decided to try it,” he told me. He was funny; I liked him. I’d chosen to be here, in a John Waters movie. It was like nothing I’d ever done. “You’ll have fun,” John said. “See you on the set.” I was getting into costume and makeup when I met Glenn Milstead, known as Divine, for the rst time. He too was getting ready to shoot our rst scene. He was wearing a housedress and adjusting his wig.

This article aims to fill the gap in the dearth of academic analysis of alternative representations of childbearing by examining the documentary film The Business of Being Born and the BBC TV drama series Call the Midwife. Although they are situated in disparate socio-historical contexts, both productions push against medicalization and present positive images of "natural" childbirth. Business systematically critiques medicalization of birth in the U.S. and presents midwifery-assisted homebirth as the solution. Call counters the dogma of necessary medical attention during childbirth by showing how midwifery dominated during the mid-twentieth century in a London neighborhood. Call also portrays midwives and a physician collaboratively providing maternal care in an impoverished neighborhood. Reviewed together, Business and Call augment each other as the former reveals the contemporary struggles and solutions devised to de-medicalize birth and the latter serves as an example of how homebirths may be supported by medico-midwifery collaboration in an urban community.
