Download or read book Theater Law written by Robert M. Jarvis and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 536 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although normally thought of in terms of its creative and artistic values, staging a play or musical involves numerous legal relationships and obligations. Accordingly, this casebook provides the first comprehensive overview of the law governing the theater industry. Among the subjects examined are the history of the theater; the practice of theater law; the creative rights of playwrights; the financial rights of producers and investors; the employment rights of directors, performers, and crew members; and the attendance rights of audiences. While principally concerned with Broadway and Off-Broadway productions, the final two chapters focus on road tours and amateur theater groups. The casebook's 104 principal readings use the battles fought over some of Broadway's biggest shows to spark student interest and promote classroom discussion. The line-up includes such hits as Annie, Bus Stop, Cats, Guys and Dolls, Jekyll & Hyde, Jesus Christ Superstar, Miss Saigon, My Fair Lady, Rent, South Pacific, The King and I, The Music Man, The Phantom of the Opera, The Producers, The Sound of Music, and Urinetown. Also taking turns are such notable figures as Jackie Mason, Ann Miller, Rosie O'Donnell, Eugene O'Neill, Lynn Redgrave, Neil Simon, Cicely Tyson, and Tennessee Williams. Supplementing the principal readings are 145 notes, 28 problems, and nine appendices. While the notes and problems help students sharpen their grasp of the underlying concepts, the appendices reproduce the essential contracts used by theater lawyers. Because the chapters have been written in "stand-alone" fashion, instructors are able to rearrange them to fit their interests and time requirements. Jarvis, Chaikelson, Corcos, Edmonds, Garon, Ghosh, Henslee, Kende, Palmer, Schultz, Scordato, and White have avoided "squib" cases, used both legal and non-legal materials, and included numerous references to secondary sources. The result is a highly-engaging work that supports both survey courses and seminars and fills the gap left by entertainment law casebooks, which tend to focus on movies and television. At the same time, it provides instructors with an opportunity to bolster their students' understanding of such fields as anti-trust law, arbitration, contracts, First Amendment law, labor and employment law, professional responsibility, and torts. A 168-page teacher's manual walks both new and experienced instructors through the materials, offering detailed analyses, questions to be asked in class, and suggestions for field trips, outside speakers, and extra credit assignments.

Book excerpt: This essential update to the classic book from the ultimate insider, Tom Logan, contains everything you need to know about the profession of acting from both sides of the camera. Previously a highly successful working actor, Tom Logan brings that experience to this updated and expanded edition of How to Act & Eat at the Same Time, the Sequel, but through the unique lens of now being an extremely successful working TV, film, and commercial director, writer, and producer. You’ll learn that ultimately, success in an audition has absolutely nothing to do with acting. Rather, it’s having the essential audition skills—which you won’t find in a “how to” audition book. That’s what you’ll learn from a master who has spent a career in and around the universe of auditions and the casting process. All sixteen chapters have been brought up-to-date, making this book a must read for today’s aspiring and working actors. And all of the appendices containing the essential practical information an actor needs in his toolbox has been updated too – resource websites; SAG, AFTRA, and Equity locations; rules and requirements for joining SAG, AEA, and Equity; plus, an updated glossary.

In Part II, each unique production area is examined, including production and stage management, sound, costume and makeup, scenery and props, lighting, and projection/video design. Each design area is divided into two chapters – the first introducing key concepts, and the second focusing on the process of creating the design. Part III brings back the popular quick reference guides from the first edition, providing an expanded and revised tool to bridge the language gap between the worlds of theatrical production and dance, and ensure productive communication across the different fields. This second edition features updated information on technology and processes, two new chapters on touring and non-traditional productions, more information on arts management within dance production, a comprehensive look at dance and video (including remote/streaming performances, as well as dance film), and additional chapter projects throughout the book. This unique book approaches the process of staging a dance production from a balanced perspective, making it an essential resource for choreographers, theatre designers, dancers, and management personnel alike, including for use in Dance and Dance Production courses.

Download or read book Equity written by Corey M. Rosen and published by Harvard Business Press. This book was released on 2005 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How employee ownership can pay bottom-line benefits. Today, more than 25 percent of American workers own stock in their employers. You can shop at employee-owned supermarkets such as Publix, buy Gore-Tex fabric from employee-owned W.L. Gore & Associates, and sip coffee served by employee owners at Starbucks. Now Corey Rosen, John Case, and Martin Staubus present convincing evidence that employee ownership can be much more than just a good benefit program. Done right, it can be the foundation for a new—and more effective—model of management. Drawing on first-hand studies of dozens of companies from large corporations to local retailers, the authors show that the “equity model” enables firms to grow faster and more profitably than conventionally run competitors. Vivid examples of both winning and failed attempts at employee ownership reveal the key concepts that make the model successful, and suggest how managers can adapt these strategies for use in their own companies. This lively and practical guide delivers a sound business case for making employees true partners in a firm’s success.
