Book excerpt: The Lower East Side of New York City, now famous for its gentrification, was once a very different place. It was, of course, very well-known for the role it played housing the immigrants from Eastern Europe. But as 1900 was turning into the twenty-first century, the Lower East Side was alive with singers, musicians, actors, writers, and directors. They would form companies and rent fifty-seat storefronts and put on their plays and musicals . It was in this time that the one-act plays in this book were created and performed. Also in this time, the now famous and much produced play Mishkins Paradise was born.

Download or read book Five One Act Plays on Ideological Fanaticism written by Marvin Perry, Ph.D. and published by Dorrance Publishing. This book was released on 2020-09-15 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Five One-Act Plays on Ideological Fanaticism By: Marvin Perry, Ph.D. In Marvin Perry’s previous books on modern intellectual history, anti-Semitism, and World War II, it was necessary to discuss why people embraced irrational ideas, myths that fostered fanaticism and ultimately proved dangerous for society and even civilization. In this work, he has attempted to treat these themes within a dramatic setting. The five one-act plays in this volume explore the theme of ideological fanaticism. Three of the plays deal with Nazi Germany, the classic example of this phenomenon. The remaining two plays treat contemporary examples of ideological fanaticism, jihadism, and white supremacy. Perry probes within a dramatic context, the thinking and feelings of Nazis (and their opponents), Islamic jihadists, and white supremacists, true believers propelled to commit and to justify atrocities against people they designate as the “other.” These plays need not be performed, but can simply be read and serve as the basis for discussion.

Download or read book BOYS WILL BE BOYS and FIVE ONE ACT PLAYS written by Robert Manns and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2005-04 with total page 133 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the loosening of constraints on what may be discussed and portrayed in plays dealing with homosexuality, similar relaxation should be expected for heterosexual works. Within the bounds of good taste, of course. And taste, like time, alters. Hopefully, the time is now. *** In an age of miniaturization, the one-act play should find itself at home. People do attend concertized etudes, most often for the piano, and that is precisely what a one-act play is--an etude. Sometimes it's a character study, others a piece of action, still others a complete little story, and several strung together selectively can make a program.
