Book Synopsis The Changing Room by : Laurence Senelick
Download or read book The Changing Room written by Laurence Senelick and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2002-09-11 with total page 566 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The answers to these questions - and much, much more - are to be found in The Changing Room , which traces the origins and variations of theatrical cross-dressing through the ages and across cultures. It examines: * tribal rituals and shamanic practices in the Balkans and Chinese-Tibet * the gender-bending elements of Greek and early Christian religion * the homosexual appeal of the boy actor on the traditional stage of China, Japan and England * the origins of the dame comedian, the principal boy, the glamour drag artiste and the male impersonator * artists such as David Bowie, Boy George, Charles Ludlam, Dame Edna Everage, Lily Savage, Candy Darling, Julian Clary and the New York Dolls. Lavishly illustrated with unusual and rare pictures, this is the first ever cross-cultural study of theatrical transvestism. It is a must for anyone interested in cross-dressing, theatre, and gender.

Her new stepmother, Linda, treats her coldly, and her two stepsisters, Drusilla and Anna, delight in gossip and laziness. After her father's death, Ella's stepsisters are free to attend youth singings while Ella stays at home to manage the household chores, rarely seeing another soul. Until one day, while running an errand, she has a chance meeting with a young Amish man from a nearby town. Drusilla and Anna are full of admiration for charming, affluent newcomer Johannes Wagler, and Linda hopes to ensnare him as a husband for one of her girls—while keeping Ella out of the way. As for Hannes, he longs to catch another glimpse of the mysterious young woman who can sing so sweetly and bake the most delicious pie he's ever sampled. Now, with a little help from some unlikely sources, Ella dares to hope she might find her heart's dearest wishes—for love, family, and a home of her own—coming true at last . . . “The tale is sweetly and smartly pieced together.” —Fresh Fiction “Price has done a wonderful job in the retelling of Cinderella through an Amish perspective . . . very fun and interesting.” —Kentucky Book Lover

One thing prevents her from going into the Inner City and stealing the medicine Herself—the tattooed Mark that physically bars her from entering. The only way around that is to get it altered in the Black Market— an act that carries the possibility of a horrific and slow death— but will guarantee her the access she needs. Willing to do whatever it takes, she accepts the help of Ethan, a boy with an agenda of his own. As her time in the city passes, dark secrets are uncovered about what the Corporation is really doing to the citizens of her city. Now, the most treacherous part of Karis’ plan is staying alive long enough to make it home. When the stakes get higher, will Karis still be able to do whatever it takes to save those she loves? CASTE is the first book in the young adult dystopian series, The Corporation. Set in a world where the strongest corporation has all the power and control, Karis navigates secret agendas, betrayal, found family, and promises to take down anyone that gets in her way–no matter who it is.
