Berkeley Repertory in conjunction with the Yale Repertory Theatre is presenting a wacky production of Dario Fo's 1970 Accidental Death of an Anarchist. Steven Epp has delighted Berkeley Rep audiences in the past with Figaro, The Miser and last year's The Doctor in Spite of Himself. The comic genius has outdone himself with this off the wall version of a classic. Dario Fo's classic parody has been around for many years and has been presented in countries all over the world in many different versions

Imagine being stranded on an island with no experience, surviving for ten months, and building an escape with just the help of some people. In the “True Repertory of the Wreck”, all of this did happen and was influential in shaping Shakespeare’s The Tempest. The shipwreck that occurred during this time caused several crew members of the Sea Venture to be stranded on an island. While this vessel was trapped on an island, the others made it to a village called Jamestown, in Virginia, where they went
dancers showed throughout the show, from the start of the second act to the finally. The second act began with Sones y Jarabes de Michoacan a traditional folklorico piece originally choreographed by Amalia Hernandez and choreographed for the World Repertory dance ensemble by the Booker T. Washington dance department consultant Fernando Hernandez. The dance began with a
perhaps more so than any other Shakespearean play, of words like time, day, night, today, tomorrow, years, hours, minutes and specific days of the week, giving us a sense of events moving steadily and inexorably in a tight temporal framework"(American Repertory Theater). Shakespeare wrote it in full knowledge and told us an old, clichéd story in an innovative and novel way. Although his idea got from Brooke, he deeply felt the characters’ emotions and set himself implicitly the task of telling a love story
medieval women were engaged with, and enriched by, the music that flourished around them. Women and Polyphony In at least some convents, women performed polyphony (an extensive discussion of this can be found in Yardley, pp. 24-27). Some of this repertory is preserved in the Las Huelgas codex which stems from the Carthusian monastery for women near Burgos in Northern Spain which housed approximately one hundred nuns and forty choir girls at its prime in the thirteenth century. The manuscript itself
1. Introduction Personality is a pattern of relatively permanent traits and unique characteristics that gives both consistency and individuality to a person’s behavior (Feist & Feist, 2008). For centuries, philosophers, personality theorists and other thinkers have been trying to answer: what personalities are like, how personalities are developed, why different personalities are developed and how personalities can be changed (Pervin & Cervone, 2013). George A. Kelly, an American psychologist born

I saw A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens on Saturday, November 9th 2013, produced by the Trinity Repertory Company at 206 Washington Street in Providence Rhode Island, performed in the Elizabeth and Malcolm Chace Theatre on opening night of the season. Charles Dickens also wrote the famous Oliver Twist and A Tale of Two Cities. When A Christmas Carol was published in 1843, Christmas was just coming into vogue as a popular holiday. The play was adapted by Adrian Hall along with original music by
Elizabethan Acting Elizabethan acting was far from ‘naturalistic.’ This statement is a widely debated topic. The repertory of the Elizabethan period was highly differed from that of today as was the demands on Elizabethan actors compared to today’s actors. Elizabethan playhouses in two weeks could often present “eleven performances of ten different plays”. Playhouses would not repeat the same play two days in a row. As an actor from the playhouses could often be all or a lot of these plays that
Pie in the Sky Among the oddballs and exhibitionists who clustered around Andy Warhol in the 1960's and 70's perhaps the scariest was Brigid Berlin, a chubby, motormouthed rebel from an upper-crust New York City family who relished the way her "underground" celebrity embarrassed her proper conservative parents. Her father, Richard Berlin, a friend of Richard M. Nixon and an admirer of Senator Joseph R. McCarthy, ran the Hearst Corporation, which he had helped save from bankruptcy in the 40's
statue represented a new life for all the people coming into the country for the reasons only they know. The Statue original name was “Liberty Enlightening the World.” The unveiling was on October 28, 1886. Once crowned the nineteenth century’s repertory of symbols, the location and size was important for the new statue. After several years of having the statue, she became the centerpiece of America. Now the center piece for almost all of the New York stands 240 feet. She is the tallest attraction
In the centre of the humanistic approach stands the subjective experience of individuals, the emphasis is that humans rather choose how to behave based on their free will (Derobertis, 2013). The approach rejects that behaviour is bound by past or current circumstances or ruled by uncontrollable forces, but rather believes that humans make decisions regarding their actions based on their own choices and that people are generally good (Glassman & Hadad, 2009). The main dominator of personality development
With special interest in medieval French secular repertory, this paper analyzes a page of manuscript selected from the manuscript Paris, Bibliothèque de l’Arsenal, Manuscript 5198, (Trouvère V, or Chansonnier de l'Arsenal). The manuscript was made for the royal family of Navarre around sometime between 1301 and 1325.

since its premiere at least until the late 90s. Questions are raised why it suddenly disappeared from almost all the major theatre companies save for a pair of local amateur productions in 2007 and 2016. The latter which was produced by the Geelong Repertory Theatre Company raised some interesting theories; especially as Geelong as a suburb does have a considerable migrant population from World War II. In 2016 the Australian government made major headlines across the globe for their decision to turn
Honky Production Critique The San Diego Repertory Theater did a praiseworthy job at presenting Honky by Greg Kalleres. Honky is a dark comedy drama that raises concerns about class and racism through its characters. Some components that contributed to the success of the production were Jacque Wilkie’s exceptional acting, Director Don Roy King’s effective casting choices and stage pictures, and Costume Designer Valerie Henderson’s emblematic costume choices. Jacque Wilkie did a remarkable job at
