Book Over the Hills to Broadway  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Over the Hills to Broadway Classic Reprint written by James S. Stone and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-19 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Over the Hills to Broadway They who have read the "Heart of Merrie England" will scarcely need to be told in what part of England to look for the places named in the following pages. The villages lie near the borderland of Gloucestershire and Worcestershire, and if the reader will take his map and find Stratford-upon-Avon, he will see Shipston-on-Stour lying south ten miles, a little to the east, and Evesham more to the west of the same point of the compass. South of a line drawn between the last two towns are the places hereinafter referred to. My gossip will be better enjoyed if the country travelled over be thus ascertained. The August spoken of was that of 1892, and most of this account was written at or very near the time - all of it within the region traversed. I have made little revision of my original sketches. They were written in pencil, and mostly as they were written they went to the printer. Possibly, as a result of this, my readers will find little to appreciate except the freshness of the work. I have taken for granted that whoever took the trouble to run over this booklet would be my friend, with whom I might sit in my study or, if I had a garden, under my own ivy, and at my will either laugh or talk seriously. Such an one would have kindly feeling enough not to misunderstand me. The illustrations, made expressly for this article, are taken from photographs secured by me while at Broadway. I have to thank the proprietors of The American Church Sunday School Magazine for their kind permission to reprint from their journal these pages. Should this reprint prove acceptable further articles of a similar nature will find their way into the magazine and further reprints will be made.

Book Off Broadway Musicals  1910 2007

Download or read book Off Broadway Musicals 1910 2007 written by Dan Dietz and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2010-03-10 with total page 657 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite an often unfair reputation as being less popular, less successful, or less refined than their bona-fide Broadway counterparts, Off Broadway musicals deserve their share of critical acclaim and study. A number of shows originally staged Off Broadway have gone on to their own successful Broadway runs, from the ever-popular A Chorus Line and Rent to more off-beat productions like Avenue Q and Little Shop of Horrors. And while it remains to be seen if other popular Off Broadway shows like Stomp, Blue Man Group, and Altar Boyz will make it to the larger Broadway theaters, their Off Broadway runs have been enormously successful in their own right. This book discusses more than 1,800 Off Broadway, Off Off Broadway, showcase, and workshop musical productions. It includes detailed descriptions of Off Broadway musicals that closed in previews or in rehearsal, selected musicals that opened in Brooklyn and in New Jersey, and American operas that opened in New York, along with general overviews of Off Broadway institutions such as the Light Opera of Manhattan. The typical entry includes the name of the host theater or theaters; the opening date and number of performances; the production's cast and creative team; a list of songs; a brief plot synopsis; and general comments and reviews from the New York critics. Besides the individual entries, the book also includes a preface, a bibliography, and 21 appendices including a discography, filmography, a list of published scripts, and lists of musicals categorized by topic and composer.

  • Pages : 84 pages

Download or read book Little Mary Sunshine written by Rick Besoyan and published by Samuel French, Inc.. This book was released on 1960 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This hugely successful Off Broadway show played for almost three years at New York's Orpheum Theatre, winning an Obie award as the Best of the Season. Billed as "a musical about an old operetta"-Little Mary Sunshine gently spoofs such old-time favorites like "Rose Marie" and "Naughty Marietta"-but has a personality all its own. The plot is a little bit of everything: Colorado Rangers led by stalwart Captain Jim; the lovely Mary Sunshine, her 'naughty' maid Nancy; a chorus of gigling schoolgirls and the ominous but benevolent Indian chief. Hearts are won and lost and won again, in this delightful, laugh-filled and charming show. -- Publisher's description.

  • ISBN : 9782863640777
  • Pages : 164 pages

Download or read book Grid meets the hills written by Florence Lipsky and published by Editions Parenthèses. This book was released on 1999 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A San Francisco, on alterne les montées et les descentes pour finalement buter contre un mur qui barre la rue. Là il faut abandonner la machine pour retrouver le pas. Seuls des escaliers permettent de suivre la pente et raccorder deux tronçons de la même rue. Tout au long de ce trajet on enchaîne une vue de la rue montant vers le ciel dans un cadre de tours d'appartements, un panoramique de la ville dans son site, une descente vertigineuse entre des maisons en bois, une autre montée vers le ciel encadrée de maisonnettes décorées, puis un plan rapproché de jardins exubérants sur lesquels s'ouvrent des entrées privées avant de fi sur une vue saisissante de la baie et de l'Oakland Bay Bridge. A chaque sommet, la baie apparaît et souligne les limites du territoire. De colline en colline la cité se regarde dans un incessant jeu de miroir. Dans un paysage grandiose où ponts et autoroutes marient la mer et la terre et où chaque colline est un quartier, Nature et Architecture s'entremêlent pour composer une ville tour à tour triomphante, modeste et familière. Comme la plupart des villes américaines, San Francisco s'est développée suivant un système de grille orthogonale. Son site présentait pourtant une topographie mouvementée ne comptant pas moins de quarante-deux collines. La grille habituellement utilisée en terrain plat rencontre ici une nature rebelle et insoumise. Il en résulte un phénomène peu commun : les rues rectilignes jouent aux montagnes russes car ici l'outil du colonisateur et les reliefs sont entrés en guerre au mépris d'une rationalité évidente. Pourquoi la ville ne s'est-elle pas adaptée à son site comme le laissait prévoir le bon sens usuel ?

Download or read book Make For The Hills written by Sir Robert Thompson KBE CMG DSO MC and published by Pen and Sword. This book was released on 1989-06-01 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Robert Thompson left Cambridge to join the Malayan Civil Service in 1938 the sun still shone on the British Empire for 24 hours a day. The outbreak of war in the Pacific found him in Hong Kong from which he was obliged to make a hurried and dramatic exit. From that point most of his working life was spent in military and political circles as one of the world's leading experts on counterinsurgency measures, on which subject he has written a number of highly regarded works. Now, with wit and modesty, he tells the story of his own eventful life, After the war, during which he served in both operations in Burma, he returned to Malaya and it was there, during the Emergency, that he gained the experience in anti-terrorist operations which was eventually to lead him, as special adviser, to Vietnam and on to Washington. En route he was privileged to meet many of the most influential and controversial figures of his time from Wingate and Templer to Kennedy, Nixon and Kissinger. His comments on these and many others, are candid and revealing. Make for the Hills is both a fascinating autobiography and an important addition to the history of the post-war world, especially that of South-East Asia.
