Book Synopsis The Greek Theatre and Festivals by : Peter Wilson
Download or read book The Greek Theatre and Festivals written by Peter Wilson and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2007-06-14 with total page 456 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A collection of essays, by leading international scholars, on the history of the Greek theatre, and on the wider context of festival culture in which theatrical activity took place in the Greek world. The emphasis is on the documentary material - inscriptions, archaeological remains and monuments - which provides so much of our 'hard' evidence for the activities of the theatre. Much of the important material discussed here is unknown except to specialists, and these studies offer access to its interpretation to a wider audience. They cover a wide range of time and place, from the earliest days of the Greek theatre to the Roman period, with special emphasis on the neglected Hellenistic period, which is especially rich in documentary evidence.

Book Synopsis The Cambridge Companion to American Theatre since 1945 by : Julia Listengarten
Download or read book The Cambridge Companion to American Theatre since 1945 written by Julia Listengarten and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2021-09-09 with total page 489 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Cambridge Companion to American Theatre since 1945 provides an overview and analysis of developments in the organization and practices of American theatre. It examines key demographic and geographical shifts American theatre after 1945 experienced in spectatorship, and addresses the economic, social, and political challenges theatre artists have faced across cultural climates and geographical locations. Specifically, it explores artistic communities, collaborative practices, and theatre methodologies across mainstream, regional, and experimental theatre practices, forms, and expressions. As American theatre has embraced diversity in practice and representation, the volume examines the various creative voices, communities, and perspectives that prior to the 1940s was mostly excluded from the theatrical landscape. This diversity has led to changing dramaturgical and theatrical languages that take us in to the twenty-first century. These shifting perspectives and evolving forms of theatrical expressions paved the ground for contemporary American theatrical innovation.
Book Synopsis Complete Works of William Shakespeare (abridged) [revised] [again] by : Adam Long

This book was released on 2023-09-15 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally performed by its creators, this 1987 Edinburgh Fringe hit remains the second longest-running West End comedy in history and has been translated into over thirty languages. The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (abridged) is not so much a play as it is a vaudeville show in which three charismatic, wildly ambitious actors attempt to present all thirty-seven of Shakespeare's plays in a single performance. They have a rudimentary concept of the stories and have imperfectly memorized a smattering of famous lines. Backstage there's a meager assortment of costumes and props. Thus armed, the three brazenly launch into their task with an earnest focus and breakneck enthusiasm.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Five Southern women, whose friendships began many years ago on their college swim team, set aside a long weekend every August to recharge those relationships. Free from husbands, kids and jobs, they meet at the same beach cottage on North Carolina's Outer Banks to catch up, laugh and meddle in each other's lives. [The play] focuses on four of those weekends and spans a period of thirty-three years... As their lives unfold and the years pass, these women increasingly rely on one another, through advice and raucous repartee, to get through the challenges (men, sex, marriage, parenting, divorce, aging) that life flings at them. And when fate throws a wrench into one of their lives in the second act, these friends, proving the enduring power of "teamwork", rally round their own with the strength and love that takes this comedy in a poignant and surprising direction."--Back cover.

Download or read book Fat Chance written by Louise McSharry and published by Penguin UK. This book was released on 2016-06-02 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'A ballsy paean to self-determination and body confidence ... will leave you dizzy but exhilarated ... if you read one heart-breaking yet bouncy true-life memoir this year, make sure it's this one' Sunday Times Louise McSharry's passion is to talk to young women (and the men who love them) about being a woman in the modern world. Drawing on her own thirtysomething years of life, in her memoir Fat Chance she writes about everything from surviving a messed up childhood, to crashing out of education and still making it, to figuring out sex, weight, feminism, make-up, friendship, workplace politics and a whole lot more. Though she has the raw material (the early death of her father; her mother's descent into alcoholism; cancer) it was impossible for Louise to write a miserable book. So, though it has its sad moments, Fat Chance is honest, upbeat, irreverent and inspirational - just like a long chat with a best friend. A fabulous, funny and wise best friend! 'An absolutely stunning piece of work ... just a fantastic book' Roisin Ingle, Irish Times 'A brave, heart-breaking yet sometimes funny account of a life full of the issues all women encounter but rarely admit out loud' Examiner 'An open and honest straight-shooting chronicle of a rollercoaster life' RTE Guide 'Heartbreakingly honest. A sharp, well-observed, and ultimately inspirational read. Every woman should read this book' Louise O'Neill 'Louise's life reads like a thriller - I had goose-bumps throughout! Brave, funny, emotional and totally relatable' Roz Purcell 'Hugely enjoyable. So honest and insightful. I loved the positivity and the REALNESS!' Una Mullaly 'Both heart-warming and heart-breaking. Vividly raw and surprisingly visceral' Angela Scanlon 'Searingly honest' Daily Star 'Funny and heart-breaking' Sunday Mirror 'I LOVED your book ... you are inspirational!' Marian Keyes, Twitter 'Loved your book. I feel like you've been writing me incredibly personal letters and that we're now best friends' Shirley Temple Bar, Twitter 'I recommend it to EVERYONE. Really warm, witty and wise' Fatti Burke, Twitter 'A mighty woman, with cojones the size of Mexico and coolness in the face of adversity not seen since John Wayne's heyday' Irish Independent 'She's a straight shooter, honest and to the point' The Herald

Download or read book Destination Sydney written by and published by . This book was released on 2022-01-04 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sydney is a city blessed with an extraordinary natural environment - a beauty that has been defined and refined by the male gaze of artists drawn to this place since the early 19th century. From Martens, Streeton and Roberts, to Rees, Whiteley and Olsen, male artists have successfully driven the process of interpreting and reinterpreting the harbour city while the work of female artists has been comparatively ignored or recognized only in the genres of interiors or still lifes. The new millennium calls for a reconsideration of this legacy and an exploration of the work of women artists in defining the art of Sydney in the 21st century - Destination Sydney: The natural world is a response to this call.This is the third (and final) iteration of the Destination Sydney series, developed and presented by Manly Art Gallery & Museum, Mosman Art Gallery and S. H. Ervin Gallery. The first two exhibitions featured well known Australian artists whose landscape visions of Sydney changed our perception of the city. The nine artists each showed the wide range and complexities of landscape paintings and demonstrated their popularity in Australian art. This third iteration now brings the series up to date and showcases a broader range of media to include painting, photography, sculpture and ceramics. All but one of the artists is living and in a nod to contemporary curatorial thinking and practice, all of the artists and their associated essayists are female. Each of the artists has created works that are becoming synonymous with the Sydney landscape, in new and innovative ways. The strap line of the exhibition, The natural world, clearly identifies the intention to show artists whose interests are again landscape and landforms, but with the added analytical appreciation and understanding of the environment. Artists selected for this exhibition include Joan Ross, Fiona Lowry, Merran Esson (Manly Art Gallery & Museum), Janet Laurence, Caroline Rothwell, Robyn Stacey (Mosman Art Gallery), and Bronwyn Oliver, Juz Kitson and Jennifer Keeler-Milne (S.H. Ervin Gallery).
