Nicholas Ridout
Stage Fright, Animals, and Other Theatrical Problems (Theatre and Performance Theory)

2006 y.
Publisher:
Description: Why do actors get stage fright? What is so embarrassing about joining in? Why not work with animals and children, and why is it so hard not to collapse into helpless laughter when things go wrong? In trying to answer these questions - usually ignored by theatre scholarship but of enduring interest to theatre professionals and audiences alike - Nicholas Ridout attempts to explain the relationship between these apparently unwanted and anomalous phenomena and the wider social and political meanings of the modern theatre. The book focuses on the theatrical encounter - those events in which actor and audience come face to face in a strangely compromised and alienated intimacy - arguing that the modern theatre has become a place where we entertain ourselves by experimenting with our feelings about work, social relations and about feelings themselves.

James P. Kraft
Stage to Studio : Musicians and the Sound Revolution, 1890-1950 (Studies in Industry and Society)

2003 y.
Publisher:
Description: Book Description Between the late nineteenth and mid-twentieth century, technology transformed the entertainment industry as much as it did such heavy industries as coal and steel. Among those most directly affected were musicians, who had to adapt to successive inventions and refinements in audio technology -- from wax cylinders and gramophones to radio and sound films. In this groundbreaking study, James P. Kraft explores the intersection of sound technology, corporate power, and artistic labor during this disruptive period. Kraft begins in the late nineteenth century`s `golden age` of musicians, when demand for skilled instrumentalists often exceeded supply, analyzing the conflicts in concert halls, nightclubs, recording studios, radio stations, and Hollywood studios as musicians began to compete not only against their local counterparts but also against highly skilled workers in national `entertainment factories.` Kraft offers an illuminating case study in the impact of [detailed...]

Burton and Nineteenth-Century American Theatre also provides insight into the cultural and artistic climate of an early period in American history when the country was still forming a national identity. Burton fled England in 1834 and came to America in the wake of a public scandal caused by his marriage to a sixteen-year-old orphan. Burton was thenalready married with a ten-year-old son. Settling in Philadelphia, the thirty-two-year-old actor rapidly established himself in the city?s theatrical productions and quickly became an audience favorite.

Stage

2004 y.
Publisher:
Description: Over the past few years, Hedi Slimane`s ongoing design collaborations with musicians on their stage costumes has allowed him unfettered access around the stages of live concerts by David Bowie, The White Stripes, Beck, The Rolling Stones, Blondie, The Strokes, and The Libertinesin Paris, London, Berlin, New York, and Los Angeles. This juncture between fashion and music has evolved into a personal photographic investigation on the mythology of the rock concert. In Slimane`s pictures, the stars of the shows are often conspicuously absent, what the images reveal, instead, is a meditation on the creation of a rock personality, the silent ritual that goes on in the space he (or she?) inhabits. His images capture, as Slimane himself puts it, `the sacred--almost sacrificial--space of the stage.` Slipcased, 14 x 7.75 in. / 396 pgs / 286 tritones. [detailed...]

Stagecoach to Tombstone: The Filmgoers` Guide to Great Westerns

2008 y.
Publisher: I. B. Tauris
Description: The true story of the American West on film, through its shooting stars and the directors who shot them Howard Hughes explores the Western, running from John Ford`s `Stagecoach` to the revisionary `Tombstone`. Writing with panache and fresh insight, he explores 27 key films, and draws on production notes, cast and crew biographies, and the films` box-office success, to reveal their place in western history. He shows how through reinvention and resurrection, this genre continually postpones the big adios and avoids ending up in Boot Hillpermanently. Major films covered include the best from genre giants John Ford, Howard Hawks and John Wayne, plus classics `High Noon`, `Shane`, `The Magnificent Seven` and `Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid`. `Stagecoach to Tombstone` makes many more stops along the way, examining well-known blockbusters and lowly B-movie oaters alike.

Stages Of Desire: The Mythological Tradition In Classical And Contemporary Spanish Theater

2004 y.
Publisher:
Description: Book DescriptionA study of how Spanish playwrights have exploited classical mythology over the centuries. Within the rich tradition of Spanish theater lies an unexplored dimension reflecting themes from classical mythology. Through close readings ofselected plays from early modern and twentieth-century Spanish literature with plots or characters derived from the Greco-Roman tradition, Michael Kidd shows that the concept of desire plays a pivotal role in adapting myth to the stage in each of severalhistorical periods. In Stages of Desire, Kidd offers a new way of looking at the theater in Spain. Reviewing the work of playwrights from Juan del Encina to Luis Riaza, he suggests that desire constitutes a central element in a large number of Greco-Roman myths and shows how dramatists have exploited this to resituate ancient narratives within their own artistic and ideological horizons. Among the works he analyzes are Timoneda?s Tragicomedia llamada Filomena, Castro?s [detailed...]

Staging Gertrude Stein : Absence, Culture, and the Landscape of American Alternative Theatre

Publisher:
Description: Book Description Gertrude Stein`s dramatic texts rely on the absence of many landmarks of traditional theater, but absence is a very difficult thing to stage. Iconoclastic directors and production teams-including Virgil Thomson, the Living Theatre, the Judson Poets Theatre, the Santa Fe Opera, the Glimmerglass Opera, the Wooster Group, Robert Wilson, Anne Bogart, Frank Galati and Heiner Goebbels-have ardently roamed Stein`s spare dramatic `landscapes,` but even these convention-defying artists had tofill some of her absences in order to bring the texts to life on stage. Inevitably contemporary culture infiltrates Stein`s pristine topography via these extra-textual additions, transforming it in ways virtually unimaginable when the reader encounters the text on the printed page. It is only by mapping the intersections of written text, performance text, and context, that one can gain a full appreciation of what Stein`s dramatic writing has meant at various historical moments, how she [detailed...]

Staging Governance : Theatrical Imperialism in London, 1770--1800

2005 y.
Publisher:
Description: Book Description Between 1770 and 1800, transformations in the relationship between metropolitan British society and its colonial holdings, and in the concept of the nation itself, left Britons with a new sense of themselves. Over the same period, the consolidation of the middle classes was accompanied by growing social constraints on sexuality and family life. Staging Governance locates the intersection of these two trends in the representation of British India on the London stage. Theatrical productions, especially those representing colonial life, pushed the limits of public discourse on sexuality and colonialism even as the government made efforts to shape and narrow them. At the same time, official discourse on colonial practices, such as the public trials of Clive and Hastings, became theatrical events themselves. Exploring this rapidly shifting world through a series of original readings of dramatic texts and important moments of oratory, Staging Governance [detailed...]

Purporting to explain the stages through which all nations pass on the road to industrial modernity, it provided a rationale for a broad range of cultural and political projects aimed at fostering Third World growth while simultaneously combating communism. But modernization theory was more than simply an expression of Cold War ideology. As the essays in this volume show, the ideal of modernization proliferated throughout the postcolonial world and across ideological lines in places as diverse as East Asia, Southern Africa, and South Asia. Indeed, it was embraced by all who shared the American enthusiasm for the increased production and higher standards of living promised by industrialization ?enemies and allies alike.

Staging Nation: English Language Theatre In Malaysia And Singapore

2004 y.
Publisher:
Description: Book DescriptionStaging Nation examines the complex relationship between the theatrical stage and the wider stage of nation building in postcolonial Malaysia and Singapore. In less than fifty years, locally written and produced English language theatre has managed to shrug off its colonial shackles to become an important site of community expression. This groundbreaking comparative study examines the role of creative writing and the act of performance as actual political acts and as interventions in national self-constructions. It argues that certain forms of theatre can be read as emerging oppositional cultures which contribute towards the deepening of democracy by offering contending narratives of the nation. The combination of a rigorous theoretical framework and detailed analysis of theatrical texts grounded in sociological analysis of Malaysian and Singaporean societies, together with documentation of specific case studies, makes this book a pioneering contribution to Asian [detailed...]

Staging Pain, 15801800

Description: Bookending the chronology of this collection are two crucial moments in the histories of pain, trauma, and their staging in British Theater: the establishment of secular and professional theater in London in the 1580s, and the growing dissatisfaction with theatrical modes of public punishment alongside the increasing efficacy of staging extravagant spectacles at the end of the eighteenth century. From the often brutal spectacle of late Medieval mystery plays to early Romantic re-evaluations of eighteenth-century appropriations of spectacles of pain, the essays take up the significance of these watershed moments in British theater and expand on recent work treating bodies in pain: what and how pain means, how such meaning can be embodied, how such embodiment can be dramatized, and how such dramatizations can be put to use and made meaningful in a variety of contexts. Grouped thematically, the essays interrogate individual plays and important topics in terms of the volume`s overriding [detailed...]
