Pender R: Stephen Sondheim’s Sweeney
Todd

Stephen Sondheim’s Sweeney Todd

Behind the Bloody Musical Masterpiece

Many of us consider making and consuming art to be a hobby, or even a luxury. But what if arts engagement - from classical music to salsa, poetry to pop concerts, galleries to graffiti - was in fact one of our most powerful tools for unlocking health and happiness? What if art could help you live longer - and even save your life?In Art Cure, Professor Daisy Fancourt reveals the life-changing power of the arts. Engaging in the arts improves the functioning of every major organ system in the body: songs support the architectural development of children's brains; creative hobbies help our brains to stay resilient against dementia; visual art and music act just like drugs to reduce depression, stress, and pain; dancing and drumming affect neurotransmitters, hormones, cells, proteins, even the expression of our genes; going to live music events, museums, exhibitions, and the theatre decreases our risk of future loneliness and frailty. Informed by the ground-breaking results of decades of scientific studies, and with practical advice that gives you the tools to write your own 'arts prescription', Art Cure will fundamentally change the way you value and engage with arts in your daily life. The arts not only helps us to survive, they allow us to thrive and flourish.

Harriet Tubman: Live in Concert

This is Josephine Baker in her own words. Josephine Baker took Paris by storm in the 1920s, dazzling audiences with her humour, beauty and effervescence on stage. She became an icon. Hemingway, Jean Cocteau and Picasso admired her; Shirley Bassey adored her. It was told she strolled the streets of Paris with her pet cheetah who wore a diamond collar. Later, as one of the most recognisable women in the world, she became a spy for the French resistance, her celebrity working as her cover. She was awarded the Légion d'Honneur for military service. After the war she became increasingly interested in civil rights. In 1963 she spoke at the March on Washington alongside Martin Luther King. All this from a girl born in Missouri to a poor single black woman and a white father she did not know. Flirtatious, funny, candid and unconventional: this memoir gives us the wildly famous but elusive Josephine Baker telling her own story. Formed from a series of conversations with the French journalist Marcel Sauvage, over a period of more than twenty years, this book offers an entertaining insight into one of the most interesting and beguiling figures of the twentieth century. 'The most sensational woman anyone ever saw' Ernest HemingwayWITH AN INTRODUCTION BY IJEOMA OLUOTRANSLATED BY ANAM ZAFAR AND SOPHIE LEWIS

Topics in Musical Theatre

Adaptation in Musical Theatre examines adaptation as inherent to musical theatre, an art form with an established history of recycling existing texts, through a concise overview of the concept and several contemporary case studies that illustrate this relationship. 

Adaptations are everywhere in popular culture, wherein most texts have been experienced elsewhere in some form. Adaptation in Musical Theatre focuses on the inherent relationship between adaptation and musical theatre, an art form in which most musicals are adaptations of existing texts. Despite a shift in production model in recent decades, where many musicals are now based on internationally known texts from conglomerates like Disney, adding song and dance to an existing work is a long-established trend has provided a plethora of different structural and stylistic choices across the musical theatre canon. 

Through multiple contemporary case studies, this book examines the various forms of adaptation in musical theatre, with each case study offering a different approach to adapting existing work. From Les Misérables to Wicked, by way of Legally Blonde and Fun Home, this book proposes that despite adaptations often being denigrated by critics as lazy and safe-bet choices for producers, the resulting musicals are incredibly diverse and crafted in a multitude of ways. Adaptations are not bland and unchallenging for audiences, as some detractors have described them, but the lifeblood of musical theatre past and present.

Published in Methuen Drama's Topics in Musical Theatre series, this book offers students a concise and readable study of a key form within musical theatre studies using relevant and contemporary case studies.

Pädagogik

Die gegenwärtigen gesellschaftlichen und ökologischen Transformationen machen die Gestaltung von Zukunft zum ebenso drängenden wie herausfordernden Problem. Es sind derzeit insbesondere Jugendliche, die sich für eine nachhaltige Klimapolitik einsetzen und eine lebenswerte Zukunft für kommende Generationen einfordern. In ihren politischen Artikulationen und in der Organisation von Protesten stehen sie beispielhaft für die Problematisierung von Zukunft im Spannungsfeld von Pädagogik und Politik. Die Beiträger*innen diskutieren das Verhältnis dieser drei Bereiche aus multidisziplinärer Perspektive. Dabei legen sie das enorme Potential sowie die Kreativität der Methoden offen, mit denen Jugendliche den Wandel gestalten.

Wie gestalten junge Menschen (ihre) Zukunft angesichts gegenwärtiger Krisen, Umbrüche und Transformationen? Die Beiträge des Bandes beleuchten die vielschichtigen Problemkonstellationen und Möglichkeitsräume, mit denen Jugendliche heute konfrontiert sind – von Klimaprotesten über den Einfluss des digitalen Wandels bis hin zu Fragen der Migration sowie des gesellschaftlichen Rechtsrucks. Sie diskutieren, wie Jugendliche und Jugendbewegungen politische Prozesse prägen, werfen einen erziehungswissenschaftlichen Blick auf aktuelle Entwicklungen im Feld demokratischer Teilhabe und denken neu über Erziehung und Bildung angesichts einer unsicheren Zukunft nach.
