Download or read book Fefu and Her Friends written by Maria Irene Fornes and published by . This book was released on 2016-04-27 with total page 62 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of Off-Broadway's best-loved plays, originally directed by the author. The audience follows the lives of eight women. For this play, Maria Irene Fornes received one of her nine Obie awards. "A wonderful, important play." Susan Sontag "Fornes is America's truest poet of the theater." Erika Munk "An extraordinary play of uncommon insight and wit." Los Angeles Herald Examiner "One of the most powerful plays written about the mysteries and shared hallucinations of the female experience." L A Weekly "Though written in 1977, the message of FEFU AND HER FRIENDS remains ever the same: women don't know what to do with feminism. Or rather, they don't know what to do with themselves. It's a strange, unsettling play, not least because the strong women characters are at a loss with each other and with themselves. Without a man to center around, they disintegrate into cattiness and then madness. Fefu is probably deranged to begin with. She 'pretends' to shoot her husband with a gun that may or may not be loaded. She likes men better than women and in fact finds women 'loathsome.' Fefu and her friends are a group of society women, circa 1935. They're bored and affected in the manner of wealthy women who have too much free time. The play begins with plans for a charity benefit being planned at Fefu's New England estate. During the second part, four different scenes play simultaneously in four different rooms. The audience is led around to each in no particular order. In the final act, the women turn giggly, then bitchy, and then everything takes a tragic turn. Though not a realistic play neither is it strictly allegorical...at the heart of the play [is] 'a provocative statement about women to this day.' Fornes's self-loathing, self-doubting women only gradually come to understand the glossy surface and the dark underbelly that is the dual reality of their lives. It's thought-provoking but challenging, not for those who enjoy escapism in their theatre." Jenny Sandman, CurtainUp"

Book Sing for Your Supper

Download or read book Sing for Your Supper written by Ethan Mordden and published by St. Martin's Press. This book was released on 2015-04-07 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the 1930s, Broadway's lights still burned brightly. Ethan Mordden completes his history of the Broadway musical by taking a look at this forgotten era. Shows like Anything Goes brought the glitter of Cole Porter and Merman's brass to the public. Innovations in dance were pioneered by Balanchine and others. Scenic advancements made Astaire's The Band Wagon move across the stage in novel ways. Gershwin's revolutionary Porgy and Bess entered the canon of American Classics. And The Cradle Will Rock and Johnny Johnson took the American political temperature. With his trademark wit and style, Ethan Mordden shines the spotlight on Broadway's forgotten decade.

Book Brass Diva

  • Author : Caryl Flinn
  • Publisher : Univ of California Press
  • Release : 2007-11-30
  • ISBN : 9780520927254
  • Pages : 596 pages

Download or read book Brass Diva written by Caryl Flinn and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2007-11-30 with total page 596 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Broadway star Ethel Merman's voice was a mesmerizing force and her vitality was legendary, yet the popular perception of La Merm as the irrepressible wonder falls far short of all that she was and all that she meant to Americans over so many decades. This marvelously detailed biography is the first to tell the full story of how the stenographer from Queens, New York, became the queen of the Broadway musical in its golden age. Mining official and unofficial sources, including interviews with Merman's family and her personal scrapbooks, Caryl Flinn unearths new details of Merman's life and finds that behind the high-octane personality was a remarkably pragmatic woman who never lost sight of her roots. Brass Diva takes us from Merman's working-class beginnings through the extraordinary career that was launched in 1930 when, playing a secondary role in a Gershwin Brothers' show, she became an overnight sensation singing "I Got Rhythm." From there, we follow Merman's hits on Broadway, her uneven successes in Hollywood, and her afterlife as a beloved camp icon. This definitive work on the phenomenon that was Ethel Merman is also the first to thoroughly explore her robust influence on American popular culture.
