Download or read book A Raisin in the Sun written by Lorraine Hansberry and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2011-11-02 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Never before, in the entire history of the American theater, has so much of the truth of Black people's lives been seen on the stage," observed James Baldwin shortly before A Raisin in the Sun opened on Broadway in 1959. This edition presents the fully restored, uncut version of Hansberry's landmark work with an introduction by Robert Nemiroff. Lorraine Hansberry's award-winning drama about the hopes and aspirations of a struggling, working-class family living on the South Side of Chicago connected profoundly with the psyche of Black America—and changed American theater forever. The play's title comes from a line in Langston Hughes's poem "Harlem," which warns that a dream deferred might "dry up/like a raisin in the sun." "The events of every passing year add resonance to A Raisin in the Sun," said The New York Times. "It is as if history is conspiring to make the play a classic."

Download or read book Audra McDonald How Glory Goes written by Audra McDonald and published by . This book was released on 2000 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Few recent recordings have been as eagerly awaited as Audra McDonald's second album. Simply put, HOW GLORY GOES comes through with flying colors on all counts. It's certainly no retread of the brilliant singer's debut WAY BACK TO PARADISE, which audaciously concentrated solely on the work of new theatrical composers. HOW GLORY GOES tips the balance in favor of classic Broadway songwriters and trademark tunes, including four by Harold Arlen -- "Anyplace I Hang My Hat Is Home," "A Sleeping Bee," "I Had Myself a True Love," "I Never Has Seen Snow," and "The Man Who Got Away "--Jerome Kern's "Bill," and Leonard Bernstein's "Somewhere." Although she consciously places herself in comparison with two beloved divas who previously recorded incomparable versions of some of these songs -- Judy Garland and Barbra Streisand -- McDonald comes out smelling like roses, bringing her own personality to gleaming interpretations that highlight her faultless technique and judicious balance of poise and exuberance. McDonald still champions new generation composers. Among the newer songs, Adam Guettel's "How Glory Goes" (from the acclaimed musical "Floyd Collins"), and Jeff Blumenkrantz's "I Won't Mind" are beautiful and affecting songs made even more rewarding by McDonald's heartfelt performances.
