Book Synopsis The San Francisco Mime Troupe Reader by : Susan Vaneta Mason
Download or read book The San Francisco Mime Troupe Reader written by Susan Vaneta Mason and published by University of Michigan Press. This book was released on 2013-07-03 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The San Francisco Mime Troupe Reader is a long-overdue collection of some of the finest political satires created and produced by the Tony Award-winning company during the last forty years. It is also a history of the company that was the theater of the counterculture movement in the 1960s and that, against all odds, has managed to survive the often hostile economic climate for the arts in the United States. The plays selected are diverse, representing some of the Troupe's finest shows, and the book's illustrations capture some of the Troupe's most memorable moments. These hilarious, edgy, and imaginative scripts are accompanied by insightful commentary by theater historian and critic Susan Vaneta Mason, who has been following the Troupe for more than three decades. The Mime Troupe Reader will engage and entertain a wide range of audiences, not only general readers but also those interested in the history of American social protest, the counterculture of the 1960s-particularly the San Francisco scene-and the evolution of contemporary political theater. It will also appeal to the legions of Troupe fans who return every year to see them stand up against another social or corporate Goliath.
Book Synopsis Perspectives on Contemporary Theatre by : Oscar G. Brockett
Download or read book Perspectives on Contemporary Theatre written by Oscar G. Brockett and published by LSU Press. This book was released on 1999-03-01 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Contemporary theatre is nearly as controversial as the changing society it reflects. Much of its journalistic notoriety derives from its seeming advocacy of behavior, language, and ideas once considered unsuitable for public performance. In this overview, a noted authority takes a perceptive look at the radical trends in modern drama and provides us with a new awareness of the forces and ideas behind the current theatrical battle. Professor Brockett demonstrates that many of the puzzling aspects of contemporary theatre—such as obscenity, nudity, and propaganda—are rooted in the traditions of Western stage and society. He traces the sifts in values over the past century and shows how these changes have affected modern drama. This uncertainty about values, says the author, has been accompanied by new conceptions of structural unity in theatre. He points out the various structural innovations in drama from Aristotle through wide range of playwrights, including Sophocles, Ionesco, Ibsen, Brecht, Artaud, Beckett, and Jean-Claude van Itallie, and discusses the relationship of “relevance” to “universality.” He examines the most recent theatrical shift—from detachment to commitment—and compares the plays of the anxious 1950s, such as Beckett’s Waiting for Godot, with today’s committed theatre, including such productions as Chicago 70, Hair, and Che! Perspectives on Contemporary Theatre is a thoughtful guide for the reader who seeks a better understanding of the radical changes in the nature and function of dramatic art.
Book Synopsis Teaching to Difference? The Challenges and Opportunities of Diversity in the Classroom by : Nicole E. Johnson
Download or read book Teaching to Difference? The Challenges and Opportunities of Diversity in the Classroom written by Nicole E. Johnson and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2014-08-11 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Teaching to Difference? The Challenges and Opportunities of Diversity in the Classroom offers a comparative perspective on the pedagogical and cultural issues in managing differences and diversity in the classroom. Using reflections and experiential analysis, the volume presents perspectives on the experiences of teaching and learning through differences of race/ethnicity, culture, sexual orientation and gender, language, special needs and geography, from contexts such as the United States, Canada, New Zealand and Israel. The reflections are presented from the viewpoint of minority teaching professionals and white educators teaching diverse student populations ranging from K-12 to college students and pre-service teachers. This volume provides a lens into the questions, reflections, and experiences of teachers and practitioners when they encounter difference in the classroom. The essays highlight the trepidation and frustration educators feel when they perceive themselves to be ill-prepared for diversity in their classrooms. However, there are also essays of triumph and success when teachers feel they have reached their students in a meaningful way. Additionally, through the experiences depicted, teachers describe their processes of connecting to students, how they determined what worked and did not work in their journey, and what they learned from the experience that continues to impact them.

Book Synopsis Censorship of the American Theatre in the Twentieth Century by : John H. Houchin
Download or read book Censorship of the American Theatre in the Twentieth Century written by John H. Houchin and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2003-06-26 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: John Houchin explores the impact of censorship in twentieth-century American theatre, arguing that theatrical censorship coincided with significant challenges to religious, political and cultural systems. The study provides a summary of theatre censorship in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries and analyses key episodes from 1900 to 2000. These include attempts to censure Olga Nethersole for her production of Sappho in 1901 and the theatre riots of 1913 that greeted the Abbey Theatre's production of Playboy of the Western World. Houchin explores the efforts to suppress plays in the 1920s that dealt with transgressive sexual material and investigates Congress' politically motivated assaults on plays and actors during the 1930s and 1940s. He investigates the impact of racial violence, political assassinations and the Vietnam War on the trajectory of theatre in the 1960s and concludes by examining the response to gay activist plays such as Angels in America.
