Download or read book Forbidden Acts written by Ben Hodges and published by Hal Leonard Corporation. This book was released on 2003-09-01 with total page 547 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: (Applause Books). Applause Theatre & Cinema Books is proud to announce the publication of the first collected anthology of gay and lesbian plays from the entire span of the twentieth century, sure to find wide acceptance by general readers and to be studied on campuses around the world. Among the ten plays, three are completely out of print. Included are The God of Venegeance (1918) by Sholom Ash, the first play to introduce lesbian characters to an English-language audience; Lillian Hellman's classic The Children's Hour (1933), initially banned in London and passed over for the Pulitzer Prize because of its subject matter; and Oscar Wilde (1938) by Leslie and Sewell Stokes, a major award-winning success that starred Robert Morley. More recent plays include Mart Crowley's The Boys in the Band (1968), the first hit "out" gay play that was the most realistic and groundbreaking portrayal of gays on stage up to that time; Martin Sherman's Bent (1978), which daringly focused on the love between two Nazi concentration camp inmates and starred Richard Gere; William Hoffman's As Is (1985), which was one of the first plays to deal with the AIDS crisis and earned three Tony Award nominations; and Terrence McNally's Love! Valour! Compassion! (1994), which starred Nathan Lane and won the Tony Award for Best Play. The other plays are Edouard Bourdet's The Captive (1926), Ruth and Augustus Goetz's The Immoralist (1954) and Frank Marcus' The Killing of Sister George (1967). Forbidden Acts includes a broad range of theatrical genres: drama, tragedy, romance, comedy and farce. They remain vibrant and relevant today as a testament of art's ability to persevere in the face of oppression.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Blue Skies, Green Hell, a thriller written by a bush pilot's wife, is a riveting tale set in the 1950s when pioneers of the sky flew single-engine aircraft over unforgiving wilderness and impenetrable jungle in Venezuela. Marilyn and Frank live in a place called the last frontier on the Orinoco River where he establishes a multiaircraft service that flies food, supplies and medicine to remote and inaccessible communities. Together they challenge the odds and take the exhilaration of flying to new heights. Their world is fierce weather with no weather reports, aircraft with limited range radios, and planes with six basic instruments. A search and rescue effort ends when they make a forced landing in no-man's-land. A flight to Miami turns sour as their twin-engine C-46 conks out over the Caribbean. Best friends die in fiery crashes. A stone age Indian appears where he shouldn't be. This is drama from the cockpit of vintage aircraft.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Locked in a desperate Cold War race against the Soviets to find out if humans could survive in space and live through a free fall from space vehicles, the Pentagon gave civilian adventurer Nick Piantanida’s Project Strato-Jump little notice until May Day, 1966. Operating in the shadows of well-funded, high-visibility Air Force and Navy projects, the former truck driver and pet store owner set a new world record for manned balloon altitude. Rising more than 23 miles over the South Dakota prairie, Piantanida nearly perished trying to set the world record for the highest free fall parachute jump from that height. On his next attempt, he would not be so lucky. Part harrowing adventure story, part space history, part psychological portrait of an extraordinary risk-taker, this story fascinates and intrigues the armchair adventurer in all of us.

Download or read book Bent written by Martin Sherman and published by Hal Leonard Corporation. This book was released on 1998 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: (Applause Books). Martin Sherman's worldwide hit play Bent took London by storm in 1979 when it was first performed by the Royal Court Theatre, with Ian McKellen as Max (a character written with the actor in mind). The play itself caused an uproar. "It educated the world," Sherman explains. "People knew about how the Third Reich treated Jews and, to some extent, gypsies and political prisoners. But very little had come out about their treatment of homosexuals." Gays were arrested and interned at work camps prior to the genocide of Jews, gypsies, and handicapped, and continued to be imprisoned even after the fall of the Third Reich and liberation of the camps. The play Bent highlights the reason why - a largely ignored German law, Paragraph 175, making homosexuality a criminal offense, which Hitler reactivated and strengthened during his rise to power.

Download or read book The Veranuxz Experiment written by Joshua Hildebrandt and published by FriesenPress. This book was released on 2017-09-28 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the untold beginnings of Earth’s history, a highly-sophisticated alien race seeded the planet with human DNA. In that intervention, they planted the Kowalewski bloodline, a lineage that inherited not just more of the interstellar farming scientists’ DNA than any of other, but also an uncontrollable yearning for knowledge and power. The Kowalewski bloodline traces its roots to ancient Sumer and a revered medicine man named Tao, who initiated early experiments on the human brain. Whether he acts purely out of spiritual curiosity, in pursuit of scientific knowledge, or is working at the shadowy behest of parties unknown is unclear What is clear is that Tao’s grisly experiments on mapping the human brain are passed forward to his descendants and that their knowledge has increased and dispersed as the bloodline has branched and branched again. In Germany at the dawn of the twentieth century, Franz and Edwin Kowalewski are modern scions of the ancient bloodline of Tao. Brilliant scientists, these twins have been operating on each other for most of their adult lives, but recently there are hints of spies and/or saboteurs accessing their research. They move their operations to an old castle in Berlin and send word to their sister, Hannelore, to break off her studies and join them. It is in Berlin that the Kowalewski siblings bear witness to a quantum leap in their research. Franz’s brain, after countless operations at the hands of Edwin, has started rewiring itself. Furthermore, Franz has developed frightening telekinetic abilities. When their research is abruptly cut short by the man who will become the ruthless antagonist of the story, it falls to their nephew Rudolf, Hannelore’s grandson, to volunteer his brain and continue his uncles’ work. In Rudolf, the miracle first seen in Franz’s brain is not only repeated but intensified. Can Rudolf become “the Duke” and harness this long-sought power of the brain in ways seemingly unimaginable? Or will his metamorphosis also be cut short? Major General Schmidt has long known about the bloodline of Tao and has been watching the Kowalewskis with care. As Schmidt recognizes the potency of their research for transforming the German military, an epic rivalry is born between Schmidt and Rudolf, a rivalry that will play out across Europe and through the eras of Kaiser Wilhelm II and Hitler. The first of a planned series, The Veranuxz Experiments is a dark, bloodthirsty tale of betrayal, revenge, intrigue, and the morality of power that spans two world wars and beyond.
