Abstract (sommario):

Tina Landau's writing and directing work has gained increasing prominence over the last decade. She has made strides in both the experimental and the musical theater arenas, and her accomplishments in each are noteworthy independent of each other. However, her concurrent interest and success in both arenas, which are commonly viewed as quite disparate, make her work particularly interesting. These interests, which might seem incongruent, are actually interrelated; her work in one area influences her work in the other, a fact which is evident both in her rehearsal process and the end products. Her experimental work has a musical sensibility and her work in musical theater is quite experimental. This thesis examines works for which she was both writer and director as representative examples: 1969, Stonewall: Night Variations, Space, Floyd Collins and Dream True. Her amalgamated sensibility results in a directing style which serves contemporary musicals, particularly "smart musicals," well.

Abstract (sommario):

Esta pesquisa teórico-prática realiza um estudo do pensamento e dos princípios de trabalho de Vsévolod Meyerhold a partir da musicalidade no trabalho do ator, utilizando princípios de Murray Schafer e Dalcroze, para a compreensão da musicalidade no corpo do ator e no espaço cênico, com vistas à uma formação mais global do ator. Neste sentido buscamos traçar princípios pedagógicos e fundamentos artísticos sobre os quais investigamos teórica e praticamente. Sua contribuição pode ser útil para que o ator vislumbre possibilidades de trabalho exploratório sobre si mesmo, passando por um processo de incorporação da musicalidade enquanto elemento constitutivo de sua prática e organizador do tempo no espaço. Traça ainda breves comentários sobre um teatro múltiplo, no qual dialoguem todas as linguagens artísticas de maneira não disjuntiva. Busca, finalmente, uma formação integral do ator enquanto humano e enquanto artista.
This research makes a theoretical and practical study of thinking and working principles of Vsévolod Meyerhold from the musicality at the actor\'s work using Murray Schafer\'s and Dalcroze\'s principles for the understanding of the musicality in actor\'s body and at the scenic space, looking for a global training of the actor. In this sense, we try to describe pedagogical principles and artistic elements on wich we study theoretical and practically. Its contribution can be useful for the envision possibilities of the actors on their exploratory work, through himself, passing through a process of incorporation of the musicality while constitutive element of their practice and a time organizer at the space. It also makes short comments about a plural theater in wich all the artistic languages can dialogue in a non-disjunctive way. Finally, it tries to find an integrate training of the actor as human and as an artist.

Abstract (sommario):

MUSICAL THEATRE HANDBOOK FOR THE ACTOR By Maggie Elizabeth Marlin, MFA A Thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Fine Arts at Virginia Commonwealth University. Virginia Commonwealth University, 2009 Major Director: David S. Leong Chairman, Department of Theatre Musical Theatre is a performance style deeply woven into the fabric of the American theatre. We live in time and social climate where over half of the productions open on Broadway right now are musicals. If actor training institutions profess a mission to prepare their students for a career in the entertainment industry, why are so many components of an actor’s skill set left to the side and considered peripheral? One can make the argument that their actor training program is exclusively for the theatre, and even more specifically for straight plays for the theatre. Of course, what your career preparation institution chooses to target is your prerogative and as long as that is clear to the incoming students who wish to specialize only in that one faction of the artist’s opportunities for work then my argument is moot. However, if you believe that actor training has a duty to prepare actors to work in an ever changing and transforming field and to be competitive in meeting the demands of various media, among many other areas of focus you should consider preparing your students to develop their craft for musical theatre as legitimately as you would for a classical or contemporary straight play. In this thesis I propose an approach to creating a role for musical theatre using as an example my character development technique for the role of Sally Bowles from a recent production of Cabaret. My desire is to illustrate a seamless continuation of the actor’s craft to meet the additional requirements of skills necessary to perform in a musical. Rather than signifying a separate style of acting for musical theatre which is identified as being altogether different and often dismissed as inferior to the craft of acting in a straight play, I hope to challenge the reader to consider a new perspective in which the foundation of musical theatre performance is built on the fundamentals of acting in a straight play.

ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The musical is one of the many forms of musical theatre and consists of certain qualities that define the genre. This form developed out of various genres en there are many approaches and definitions for the musical.This study investigates the nature and changing nature of the musical in South Africa, and it also studies the various factors that contributed and still contributes to the development of the concept musical.The economic-, socio-economic, historical- en cultural background of South Africa is used throughout the study to understand and interpret the nature and context of this theatrical art form. The study is divided into periods; pre – colonial South Africa, Colonial South Africa, Apartheid South Africa and Post-Apartheid South Africa. The above periods are furthermore organized into the following categories; historical background, available theatre spaces, the involvement of theatre makers, forms of musicals found and examples of musicals present during the specific periods.Various forms of the musical are researched; the indigenous community musical, the urban black musical, the anti-apartheid musical, the township musical, independent musicals, international phenomena, contemporary trends as well as the appearance and relevance of the musical at festivals in South Africa.The conclusion of the study is that the nature of musicals in South Africa is bound to various factors that influence this theatrical form, and the form is thus adaptable due to elements such as social-, cultural-, economic- en socio-economic factors.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Die musiekblyspel is ‘n onderafdeling van musiekteater en bevat spesifieke eienskappe wat dié genre definieer. Die vorm het ontwikkel vanuit verskeie genres en daar bestaan verskillende benaderings tot en definisies vir die musiekblyspel. Hierdie studie ondersoek die wese en aard en verandering van dié genre in Suid-Afrika, en ook die verskeie faktore wat bygedra het en steeds bydra tot die ontstaan en ontwikkeling van die konsep musiekblyspel. Die ekonomiese-, sosio-ekonomiese-, historiese- en kulturele agtergrond van Suid-Afrika dien as deurlyn, om sodoende ook die aard van die teatervorm in konteks te verstaan en te interpreteer. Die studie is voorts ook verdeel in Pre – koloniale Afrika, gevolg deur Koloniale Suid-Afrika, die Apartheid-era en laastens die Post-Apartheidsera. Die onderskeie tydperke is verder in die volgende onderadelings verdeel; historiese agtergrond, beskikbare teaterruimtes, betrokkenheid van teatermakers, vorme van musiekblyspele aanwesig en voorbeelde van musiekblyspele gedurende bogenoemde tydperke. Verskeie vorme van die musiekblyspel word bestudeer, onder andere die inheemse gemeenskapsmusiekblyspel, die inheemse swart musiekblyspel, die anti-apartheid musiekblyspel, die township-musiekblyspel, onafhanklike, nie staatsgesubsideerde musiekblyspele, internasionale verskynsels, hedendaagse tendense, asook die voorkoms en relevansie van musiekblyspele by kunstefeeste. Die gevolgtrekking van die studie is dat die aard van musiekblyspele in Suid-Afrika gebonde is aan verskeie faktore wat die teatervorm beïnvloed en sodoende is die vorm aanpasbaar weens elemente soos sosiale-, kulturele-, ekonomiese en sosio-ekonomiese faktore.

Miller, Lorin. "From monody to modernity| An examination of the connection between early Baroque opera and contemporary musical theatre". Thesis, California State University, Dominguez Hills, 2014. http://pqdtopen.proquest.com/#viewpdf?dispub=1525619.

Testo completo

Abstract (sommario):

Monody in musical dramatic presentations emanates from an early Baroque opera genesis and exists in multiple forms in the musical theater of today. By examining the Baroque characteristics of monody within the opera genre, a direct comparison between Monteverdi's opera Orfeo (1607) and Schönberg's musical Les Miserables (1985) can be established. This correlation becomes pronounced upon the exploration of four specific examples: through the implementation of recitative and aria, the interdependent use of duet and chorus with the solo voice, the innovative incorporation of atypical tonalities within the melodic line, and the inventive application of instrumentation to enhance vocal expression in each work. Just as Monteverdi designed his recitative to express the emotion of the libretto, so Schönberg composes dynamic, emotional songs to enhance the epic story of Les Miserables. Though composed centuries apart, both works employ similar melodic, rhythmic, harmonic and orchestral constructs, confirming a similar genesis.

O Musical é uma manifestação artística que reúne música, teatro e dança e, nesta pesquisa, apresenta-se como forte aliado na busca pela educação libertadora e abrangente, pois busca desenvolver nos alunos, não somente o seu intelecto, mas também aspectos psico-sociais, cognitivos, musicais e artísticos. Em função de alcançar dados sistemáticos sobre este assunto, realizamos uma pesquisa qualitativa descritiva dentro da área da Educação Musical, mas que se articula com as áreas de Arte-educação, Psicologia, Sociologia e Filosofia. Foi realizada a observação participante do processo de construção, desenvolvimento e análise dos resultados da prática educacional através do Musical “Lamento Sertanejo” com 14 alunos na faixa etária de 14 a 20 anos, no contexto do Coral Juvenil da Escola de Música da UFBa, Salvador, Bahia. O processo avaliativo considerou as visões dos alunos, da professora e de três especialistas independentes, confrontando todas elas para constatar os resultados. Os resultados indicaram que a prática interdisciplinar da construção do Musical, com propósitos pedagógicos, contribuiu para o desenvolvimento dos educandos. Foram analisados os aspectos musicais e artísticos da execução e percepção rítmica, melódica e harmônica, expressão corporal, interpretação teatral, desenvoltura de palco e coordenação motora, os aspectos psico-sociais de entrosamento no grupo, superação de bloqueios emocionais e de timidez e elevação da auto-estima e os aspectos cognitivos relacionados com a criatividade e memorização, além da aquisição de conteúdos culturais.

Abstract (sommario):

Este proyecto nace ante las dificultades por las que, en este año, todo el pueblo peruano está atravesando, que es el Covid - 19. En tales parámetros, hemos considerado que toda actividad comercial realizada a través del canal tradicional se vería afectado al menos durante el presente año 2020. Entonces, viendo tal situación, optamos por una alternativa la cual es referida al canal virtual. Es ahí cuando nace TicketAzo, que es una plataforma web que le brinda a los usuarios, streamings referidos a teatros musicales. Por ende, en el siguiente trabajo, presentamos todas las investigaciones que se realizaron para poder viabilizar este negocio. Para tal fin, hemos tomado las consideraciones en materia de marketing, diseño, recursos humanos, presupuestos, resultados y estimaciones. Asimismo, mostramos en efecto que, para este rubro, existen ciertos pasos que deben realizarse, tanto legales, estratégicos y operacionales. Para ello, acudimos a fuentes confiables como páginas web del Estado, entrevistas a expertos que nos permitieron llegar a la conclusión de realizar las transmisiones a través de una plataforma web. Además, las estrategias que desarrollamos apuntan a resultados tanto para el corto y largo plazo, los cuales también incluyen a los prospectos financieros destinados como gastos o inversiones para poder incrementar nuestra demanda y estabilidad en el mercado. Respecto a los conceptos operacionales, buscamos optimizar todo tipo de actividad de comprometa un sobrecosto.
This project was born due to the difficulties that the entire Peruvian people are going through this year, which is Covid - 19. In these parameters, we have considered that all commercial activity carried out through the traditional channel would be affected at least during the present year 2020. So, seeing such a situation, we opted for an alternative which is referred to the virtual channel. That's when Ticketazo was born, which is a web platform that provides users with streams referring to musical theatres. Therefore, in the following work, we present all the investigations that were carried out to make this business viable. To this end, we have taken the considerations in terms of marketing, design, human resources, budgets, results and estimates. Likewise, we show in effect that, for this item, there are certain steps that must be carried out, both legal, strategic and operational. To do this, we went to reliable sources such as State web pages, interviews with experts that allowed us to reach the conclusion of making the transmissions through a web platform. In addition, the strategies we develop aim at results for both the short and long term, which also include financial prospects intended as expenses or investments in order to increase our demand and stability in the market. Regarding operational concepts, we seek to optimize all types of activity to commit an extra cost.

Theater
M.F.A.
RENT: A Director's Process describes the process a director undergoes in the creation of a piece of theater. It uses as its example Temple Theaters' 2010 production of RENT, and it examines how an MFA thesis production encapsulates the material garnered over three years' intensive study in a conservatory setting of the art and craft of directing. It explores the methodologies behind the pre-production process, including concept, approach, design, and casting, and continues into the production process, including rehearsal and performance. This thesis suggests a method of directing that is based on a formal approach, and shows this method to be as applicable to populist styles, such as musical theater, as it is to more experimental forms.

Abstract (sommario):

Pit musicians have fallen through the cracks of musical theater scholarship. In all my research, I have yet to come across any sources that thoroughly examine musical theater from the perspective of the musicians who perform in its orchestras day in and day out. Thus, this thesis documents Richard (Dick) R. Smith's life as a professional musician living and working--in vaudeville and on Broadway--in midcentury New York City. Smith might be relatively unknown, but he played a significant role in a variety of musical contexts. By understanding his life, we gain valuable insight into histories that have only focused on the experiences and achievements of actors, bandleaders, composers, orchestrators, and conductors, among others. Examining Smith's experiences also help us understand something about the hundreds, if not thousands, of similarly anonymous pit musicians whose talents and hard work made New York City's vibrant musical life possible.

Abstract (sommario):

The Silence is the story of William Rose, a man who, while searching the world for his missing wife and daughter, is kidnapped and held in a secret Iranian prison. After many years of torture, abuse and a slow descent into insanity, secrets about his family manifest as mysterious and magical occurrences, creating a dangerous tension between the prisoners and guards. Questions begin to arise: Who is actually in charge of this prison? Why haven’t the guards ever met the warden? Why is the prison haunted by mysterious voices? And what exactly would it take to crumble the walls of this corrupt institution? Act II scene iii, The Hour of Angels – William sits alone in his cell, carving the images of his wife and daughter into the wall. As he begs his family to come back to him, the image of his wife slowly comes to life. Intermezzo and Act II scene i, Danger in the Meadow – Flashback. The prison guards spy on Christina and Madelyn Rose as they play in a meadow not far from the secret prison. Christina sees them hiding and in a panic sends her daughter to a distant building to hide and look for help.

Lovelock, James Michael. "'Not just for gays anymore' : men, masculinities and musical theatre". Thesis, University of Birmingham, 2017. http://etheses.bham.ac.uk//id/eprint/7533/.

Testo completo

Abstract (sommario):

This thesis explores how the changing masculinities of the 21st century have affected how young men connect to musical theatre as a genre that has been stereotypically seen as gay. The investigation is first located in the theoretical framework of masculinities, utilising the concepts of the male sex role, hegemonic masculinities and inclusive masculinity to chart how the performance of the male gender has changed over the past century. The project then adopts an empirical approach to a group of 161 men and 25 women, establishing a methodological framework for correlating sexual orientation with attitudes towards musical theatre. There is a further honing of this methodology through the adoption of Jenifer Toksvig's 'The Fairytale Moment' exercise, which identifies how each participant connects to narrative through a core emotional drive. Finally, this data is tested through three case studies of how individual participants connect to 'Les Misérables', 'Wicked' and 'Soho Cinders', concluding that the emotional content of musical theatre is now as desirable to straight men as it is to women and LGBT men.

Abstract (sommario):

In an age of standardized testing and quality-controlled classrooms, teachers have lost the freedom to integrate imagination and creativity in their lessons, ultimately cheating today's youth. In the classroom, students no longer have the outlets that transport them from the harsh realities of life. This thesis is an attempt to provide a venue for the Orange County Public School System that will engage the imaginations of under-represented or underprivileged students. The thesis will chronicle the development of a script with the intent of producing it in Title I elementary schools located in lower socio-economic areas of Orlando, Florida. The script will be based on Hans Christian Anderson's fairy tale "The Ugly Duckling." The final product will be a musical theatre piece to take into the school system to be performed by the students. The body of the thesis will contain my prior experiences of bringing musical theatre to underprivileged youth. The document will also include chapters detailing the process of creating the script and composing the music. Research will determine the socio-economic challenges prevalent in the under-represented cultures in the urban schools of Orlando. Finally, the thesis will contain a section of the actual script and will conclude with a chapter summarizing the reactions to the first reading of the play.

Abstract (sommario):

Gretchen Cryer and Nancy Ford, along with most other female creators of musicals, remain in the shadows, in spite of an increased focus by the media on women’s contributions to society. The messages of Cryer and Ford’s dramatic themes and songs have not been fully understood by many critics and audience members. Scholarly and popular writings on women in theater remain scarce, and literature on Cryer and Ford contains errors and promotes misunderstandings.

In this thesis, I argue that Gretchen Cryer and Nancy Ford, a writer and composer of musical theater respectively, tackled contemporary issues in their Broadway and off Broadway musicals, introduced new theatrical forms and musical genres to the stage, and have built a distinguished collaborative career and earned a meritorious position in musical theater heritage by incorporating these issues, in particular, those which pertain to women or those which affect women, into their works. I seek to correct and build upon extant writings and information from media resources. My thesis is the first monograph to detail the lives and works of Cryer and Ford, and to assess their contributions to the musical theater genre. My detailed case studies dissect several Cryer and Ford musicals, which speak directly to prominent images and ideas of the time, and reveal how their works emphasize the importance of interpersonal communication, and endorse humanism and, in particular, feminism. Cryer and Ford are trailblazers for other female musical writers, for whom they have advocated, and for whom I provide a comprehensive overview.

Abstract (sommario):

This thesis examines the professional musical stage of Montreal in the decade following the First World War. Throughout the 1920s, almost all of the city's musical theatre attractions were foreign in origin, and were staged by American, French, and British roadshow companies, arriving mainly from New York City. Analysis of Montreal's musical theatre entertainment and satellite relationship with Broadway highlights the growing cultural influence of the United States upon Quebec society in the interwar period. As a northern outpost of Broadway, Montreal was directly affected by the profound transformation of the entertainment industry of the United States. After peaking in the second half of the decade, the musical stage of Montreal was gradually supplanted by the decline of the roadshow system, the advent of the sound film, the onset of the Great Depression, and the resurgence of local stock theatre companies.
The northern extension of Broadway into Montreal heightened divisions within Montreal society between a growing middle class of businessmen, managers, and other professionals who embraced modernity and cultural change, and more conservative forces who favoured the traditional Quebec based on religious and nationalist values. While the musical attractions sent northwards from Broadway were a popular divertissement for a large proportion of Montrealers from all social classes and linguistic backgrounds, they were abhorred by the province's clerical and nationalist elites and their supporters who regarded them as a threat to the survival of traditional French Canadian values and culture.

Testo completo

Abstract (sommario):

The integrated musical is a vehicle for the creation and communication of a national identity, created through the use of coded performances of gender and, at times, rural settings conceptualized as essentially “American.” There is, however, little research about the ways in which gender operates in rural settings in musical theatre, or the ways in which rural gender identities are utilized to communicate nationalist ideologies. This thesis seeks to address this gap in research by examining three contemporary American musicals – Carrie, Violet, and The Spitfire Grill – in light of both American musical theatre conventions surrounding gender performance and contemporary theory around gender, rurality, and intersectional rural gender identities. This thesis ultimately suggests that an approach to rural gender in musical theatre grounded in a specific physical and cultural moment and location is best equipped to both honor the narratives of rural communities and propagate appropriately complex narratives of national identity.

Bonshek, Corrina. "Australian deterritorialised music theatre : a theoretical and creative exploration". Thesis, View thesis, 2007. http://handle.uws.edu.au:8081/1959.7/40061.

Testo completo

Abstract (sommario):

This project consists of a theoretical examination of Australian music theatre and a portfolio of musical compositions. The thesis proposes an innovative analytical model for music theatre/multi-media with a distinctive perspective. Adapting concepts from feminist Deleuzean theorists, it advances a notion of feminine difference that moves beyond earlier debates between essentialists and anti-essentialists. This theoretical framework guides the close examination of three works ― Andrée Greenwell’s Laquiem: Tales from the Mourning of the Lac Women (1999), Greenwell’s Laquiem (2002) and Gretchen Miller’s Inland (1999/2000) ― that complicate the category ‘music theatre’ in the way that they cross genre boundaries. Greenwell’s Laquiem: Tales from the Mourning of the Lac Women is a new music performance work based upon Kathleen Mary Fallon’s ‘The Mourning of the Lac Women’. This work has a close relationship to Laquiem (2002), a short film directed, composed and scripted adapted by Greenwell based upon the same text by Fallon. Inland is a radiophonic work that Miller also staged as a live performance. The thesis argues that changing format and interdisciplinary content of works such as these has contributed to the current proliferation of genre labels. Recent works can be defined under various descriptors such as ‘performance art’, ‘documentary opera’ or ‘installation performance’. The thesis offers the concept of ‘deterritorialised music theatre’ to address works that exist at and beyond the limits of music theatre as a category. The penultimate chapter applies a Deleuzean feminist framework to the composition portfolio submitted with the thesis. The creative work consists of two audio-visual installations (one with quadraphonic sound), a music-theatre work (exploring ‘action’- instrumental possibilities) and a music-art tour that includes music for string trio, singer and brass/sax septet.

Introduction -- Historical background and literature review -- Structural and philosophic changes -- Chamber opera: a genre in evolution -- Chamber opera: its potential for the future -- The personal experiment -- Conclusion..
From its origins as chamber opera just over four hundred years ago, Opera developed through the 18th and 19th centuries, in length and complexity, to attain the status of 'grand', a term that most people associate with opera to this day ... At the beginning of the 20th century, radical innovations in the arts influenced by movements such as the Bauhaus phenomenon, added to the aftermath of a world war that shattered existing socio-political structures and artistic sentiments turned from extroverted displays of grandeur to the creation of more cerebral, introverted styles. ... On the threshold of a new millennium, small, often experimental companies, passionately convinced of the relevance of, and excited by the artistic potential inherent in this revitalized form of opera, formed a loose consortium of creative artists internationally, similar in spirit to the original Camerata of the 16th century, making use of current technologies. Whether these newer works may be styled 'chamber opera' or 'music theatre', they represent a form in evolution, capable of further development into a new genre, a vital nexus of traditional skills applied to current issues, peculiarly suited to integration with electronic modes such as television.

Abstract (sommario):

With the broadening interest and popularity of musical theater studies in academic degree programs, more teachers of classical singing and students are meeting at the crossroads of conventional vocal study to broaden their skills in non-classical and musical theater techniques. Tracing back through the lineage of American musical theater, a fascinating example of vocal style emerges from the musical theater works of Kurt Weill. Weill's music exhibits operatic lyricism, jazz rhythms, and popular idioms but does not conform strictly to light opera, jazz, or popular music.In America, Kurt Weill was a successful musical theater composer by 1941 and was highly respected on Broadway. Simplicity and comprehensibility were his stylistic objectives in transforming operatic forms into a viable musical theater that would appeal to the greater public. His work in musical theater resulted in an extensive repertory of songs suitable for all voice types, one that was of considerable significance in the evolution of American theater and singing styles.Weill's American musical theater songs convey a communicative style that requires a technique grounded in the speech-based lyricism of celebrated jazz singers and singing-actors from musical theater's golden era (roughly 1927 to 1960). A deeper understanding of Kurt Weill's American theater songs will clarify the defining qualities of his musical style and suggest a more informed artistic approach for singers, teachers, coaches, and accompanists of musical theater repertoire.
