Envelope-to: 927121@ican.net X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook Express Macintosh Edition - 4.5 (0410) Date: Thu, 16 Dec 1999 21:51:33 -0500 Subject: Encyclopedia News; Goodbye 1999 From: "Gaetan Charlebois" Bcc: Hello All and Happy Holiday This will be the last missive before January 17 or so, so have a wondrous and bug-free New Year. About that, here's what worries me. Not that the world will end, or even that my bank card won't work (keeping me from getting the 32 cents I've stashed for just such emergencies...). It's that with CNN announcing 100 hours of live coverage, Newsworld and RDI some 24 and every network in every country covering this to death that all it will take to set off a world-wide panic of binge-buying, bank-runs and hoarding will be a light-bulb burning out in Kangaroo Hop, Australia and one of the 18,000 cameras in that poor beleagured country capturing the moment. For the sane, among us, just sit tight, relax and enjoy the show (if only the one of bleary-eyed newspeople trying to find something new to say after 99 and a half hours...) Meanwhile, the Encyclopedia and the whole canadiantheatre.com project has grown well, this year, and mostly in the right directions. Sure it's not Amazon.com, but at least we answer our e-mail. I am particularly proud of the reviews section which, through magnificent contributors, gives a fairly complete, ongoing picture of the theatre of this nation. (There is also a New Feature, at "Reviews" - see below.) I wish Heavenly Voices was more popular, but it serves its own little purpose. I am especially delighted by the volume of mail from young people the site generates. This shows that someone out there is continuing to spread the word about Canadian theatre to a generation that is usually grossly undereducated on the subject. Bless the teachers of the nation who talk about this silly passtime that arouses some of us so much. Finally, it's time for the end of year toasts: deepest thanks to Leonard Conolly, Greg Nelson, Joel Greenberg, Alvina Ruprecht, Laura MacDonald, Anne Nothof, Lindy Cooksey, Frank Moher, Clair Sedore, and the dozens of others, across the country and abroad, who not only keep this project clicking along with their advice but make the work profoundly enjoyable for me.

IMPORTANT NEWS FROM LONDON

Just this week, after months of speculation, negotiations have finally closed in the great Stoll Moss sell off and Andrew Lloyd Webber has emerged victorious. Lloyd Webber beat off stiff competition from the likes of Cameron Mackintosh and US giant SFX Entertainment with a £87.5m deal. He now adds the ten Stoll Moss houses to the three he already possesses to become the leading theatre owner in London, with control of nearly a third of the West End. It's the biggest shake-up in theatreland in 80 years.

THEATRE OBITUARIES

John Berry, 82, a film and stage director who performed with and assisted Orson Welles' during the time of Welles and John Houseman's Mercury Theatre, died Nov. 29 in Paris. The onetime stage actor, a Bronx native, made his stage debut as a child in vaudeville and appeared in Welles' Julius Caesar (1937) and became Welles assistant; The Times reported that John Houseman didn't think Mr. Berry could act, so he did not get the role of Marc Anthony.He also staged the Broadway production of Romulus Linney's Love Suicide at Schofield Barracks (1971-72) and The Crucible for Lincoln Center; Patrick Bedford, 67, the Irish actor who shared an unusual dual Best Actor Tony Award nomination with Donal Donnelly for Philadelphia, Here I Come!, died Nov. 20 in Manhattan; The 1966 nomination, for a role in what has become one of playwright Brian Friel's greatest hits, was part of a 30 year career for Mr. Bedford. He worked in Dublin, acting and directing at the Gate Theatre, and performed on Broadway and in films. He was 67. The cause of death was cancer. He lived in New York; Samuel Leve, 91, a Broadway and New York scenic, lighting and costume designer whose work for Orson Welles' Mercury Theatre appeared during the politically and artistically feverish late Depression years, died Dec. 6 in Manhattan. The Russian immigrant designed Welles' famous staging of Julius Caesar in 1937, and The Shoemaker's Holiday in 1938. For the latter, he designed a London skyline from slats of orange crates, to offer just a suggestion of the world; Welles was fond of making the audience use its imagination. Mr. Leve also designed sets and costumes for a play called Revolt of the Beavers, a piece that figures prominently in Tim Robbins' fanciful, partly-fictionalized film, "Cradle Will Rock," about Welles, the Federal Theatre Project, Depression leftism and censorship. Mr. Leve was scenic designer for The Wild Duck, Big Blow, Who is Who (all in 1938), Medicine Show (1940), The Beautiful People (1941), The Distant City (1941), Macbeth (1941) and dozens of other New York productions over the next several decades (Comes a Day in 1959, the musical, Cafe Crown, in 1964); Betty Rea, a Montreal native who acted in Canada and later on Broadway before becoming a soap opera casting director, died Dec. 23, 1999, in Los Angeles. Ms. Rea was 82. The cause of death was respiratory failure;

PLAYWRIGHT - EDWARD ALBEE (1928- )

Born in Washington, the adopted grandson of the vaudeville magnate. Edward was in and out of many schools, and turned to playwrighting at the suggestion of Thornton Wilder. His first play The Zoo Story was produced in Germany in 1959 and in New York the next year. Also in 1960 he presented The Sandbox, followed by The American Dream the next year as well as The Death of Bessie Smith. But it was his study of a troubled marriage, Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf, which made him the darling of the critics and audiences alike. I was most fortunate to be in attendance opening night. It won the New York Drama Critics Award. All his other plays have paled by comparison, from The Ballad of the Sad Cafe, Tiny Alice (1964), Malcolm, the libretto for Breakfast at Tiffanys, but A Delicate Balance has had greater success, although Everything in the Garden, All Over (1971), Seascape (1975), The Lady from Dubuque (1980), The Man Who Had Three Arms (1983) were all short-lived.

MEMORIES - MY YEARS OF THEATREGOING 1955-1999 - Part 6

In 1963 a friend and myself drove to New York for the weekend just to see the production of Eugene O'Neill's "Strange Interlude," with a dream cast - William Prince, Franchot Tone, Geraldine Page, Ben Gazzara, Pat Hingle, Betty Field, Richard Thomas, Jane Fonda and Geoffrey Horne. The play itself doesn't work by today's standards as it is difficult to accept all the asides, but what a performance. While there, I also got to see Judy Holliday's final Broadway show, the musical "Hot Spot." She died shortly afterwards of cancer. We get so used to seeing these stars on stage, that when something happens it is like losing a friend. But we are left with the wonderful performances which will stay with us for a lifetime. And after seeing most of Judy Holliday's hits, it was a pity that her final show was a disaster. Productions in Toronto included the pre-Broadway "The Girl Who Came to Supper," with Tessie O'Shea, Florence Henderson, Roderick Cook and Jose Ferrer. It would later reach the screen as the Prince and the Showgirl with Marilyn Monroe and Laurence Olivier. We also got a production of "School for Scandal," with John Gielgud, Gwen Ffrangcon-Davies, Ralph Richardson, Geraldine McEwan and Laurence Naismith; Jack Benny with special guest Jane Morgan, touring productions of How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying and I Can Get It For You Wholesale, appearances by Danny Kaye, Steve Lawrence and Eydie Gorme, Ballets Folklorico de Mexico, and Frankie Avalon. The Royal Alexandra presented Charlottetown Festival's Sunshine Town, based on the work by Stephen Leacock, Sabrina Fairby Samuel Taylor, later to be a vehicle for Audrey Hepburn, T.S. Eliot's The Cocktail Party, a revival of Desert Song with Howard Keele, a Canadian production of Godspell with a great cast, Jane Eyre from England, and Johnny Belinda from Charlottetown Festival, as well as touring productions of Philadelphia Here I Come, with Donal Donnelly and The Philanthropist.

DANCERS/CHOREOGRAPHER - MICHAEL KIDD (1919 - )

New Yorker Michael's plans changed from chemical engineering to ballet, and he performed with the Eugene Loring Dance Players and Ballet Theatre before choreographing Finian's Rainbow (1947). This was followed by such hits as Love Life (1948), Guys and Dolls (1950) and Can Can (1953). To me, his masterpiece is L'il Abner, which will be available for posterity on film.

Envelope-to: 927121@ican.net X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook Express Macintosh Edition - 4.5 (0410) Date: Thu, 16 Dec 1999 21:51:33 -0500 Subject: Encyclopedia News; Goodbye 1999 From: "Gaetan Charlebois" Bcc: Hello All and Happy Holiday This will be the last missive before January 17 or so, so have a wondrous and bug-free New Year. About that, here's what worries me. Not that the world will end, or even that my bank card won't work (keeping me from getting the 32 cents I've stashed for just such emergencies...). It's that with CNN announcing 100 hours of live coverage, Newsworld and RDI some 24 and every network in every country covering this to death that all it will take to set off a world-wide panic of binge-buying, bank-runs and hoarding will be a light-bulb burning out in Kangaroo Hop, Australia and one of the 18,000 cameras in that poor beleagured country capturing the moment. For the sane, among us, just sit tight, relax and enjoy the show (if only the one of bleary-eyed newspeople trying to find something new to say after 99 and a half hours...) Meanwhile, the Encyclopedia and the whole canadiantheatre.com project has grown well, this year, and mostly in the right directions. Sure it's not Amazon.com, but at least we answer our e-mail. I am particularly proud of the reviews section which, through magnificent contributors, gives a fairly complete, ongoing picture of the theatre of this nation. (There is also a New Feature, at "Reviews" - see below.) I wish Heavenly Voices was more popular, but it serves its own little purpose. I am especially delighted by the volume of mail from young people the site generates. This shows that someone out there is continuing to spread the word about Canadian theatre to a generation that is usually grossly undereducated on the subject. Bless the teachers of the nation who talk about this silly passtime that arouses some of us so much. Finally, it's time for the end of year toasts: deepest thanks to Leonard Conolly, Greg Nelson, Joel Greenberg, Alvina Ruprecht, Laura MacDonald, Anne Nothof, Lindy Cooksey, Frank Moher, Clair Sedore, and the dozens of others, across the country and abroad, who not only keep this project clicking along with their advice but make the work profoundly enjoyable for me.

IMPORTANT NEWS FROM LONDON

Just this week, after months of speculation, negotiations have finally closed in the great Stoll Moss sell off and Andrew Lloyd Webber has emerged victorious. Lloyd Webber beat off stiff competition from the likes of Cameron Mackintosh and US giant SFX Entertainment with a £87.5m deal. He now adds the ten Stoll Moss houses to the three he already possesses to become the leading theatre owner in London, with control of nearly a third of the West End. It's the biggest shake-up in theatreland in 80 years.

THEATRE OBITUARIES

John Berry, 82, a film and stage director who performed with and assisted Orson Welles' during the time of Welles and John Houseman's Mercury Theatre, died Nov. 29 in Paris. The onetime stage actor, a Bronx native, made his stage debut as a child in vaudeville and appeared in Welles' Julius Caesar (1937) and became Welles assistant; The Times reported that John Houseman didn't think Mr. Berry could act, so he did not get the role of Marc Anthony.He also staged the Broadway production of Romulus Linney's Love Suicide at Schofield Barracks (1971-72) and The Crucible for Lincoln Center; Patrick Bedford, 67, the Irish actor who shared an unusual dual Best Actor Tony Award nomination with Donal Donnelly for Philadelphia, Here I Come!, died Nov. 20 in Manhattan; The 1966 nomination, for a role in what has become one of playwright Brian Friel's greatest hits, was part of a 30 year career for Mr. Bedford. He worked in Dublin, acting and directing at the Gate Theatre, and performed on Broadway and in films. He was 67. The cause of death was cancer. He lived in New York; Samuel Leve, 91, a Broadway and New York scenic, lighting and costume designer whose work for Orson Welles' Mercury Theatre appeared during the politically and artistically feverish late Depression years, died Dec. 6 in Manhattan. The Russian immigrant designed Welles' famous staging of Julius Caesar in 1937, and The Shoemaker's Holiday in 1938. For the latter, he designed a London skyline from slats of orange crates, to offer just a suggestion of the world; Welles was fond of making the audience use its imagination. Mr. Leve also designed sets and costumes for a play called Revolt of the Beavers, a piece that figures prominently in Tim Robbins' fanciful, partly-fictionalized film, "Cradle Will Rock," about Welles, the Federal Theatre Project, Depression leftism and censorship. Mr. Leve was scenic designer for The Wild Duck, Big Blow, Who is Who (all in 1938), Medicine Show (1940), The Beautiful People (1941), The Distant City (1941), Macbeth (1941) and dozens of other New York productions over the next several decades (Comes a Day in 1959, the musical, Cafe Crown, in 1964); Betty Rea, a Montreal native who acted in Canada and later on Broadway before becoming a soap opera casting director, died Dec. 23, 1999, in Los Angeles. Ms. Rea was 82. The cause of death was respiratory failure;

PLAYWRIGHT - EDWARD ALBEE (1928- )

Born in Washington, the adopted grandson of the vaudeville magnate. Edward was in and out of many schools, and turned to playwrighting at the suggestion of Thornton Wilder. His first play The Zoo Story was produced in Germany in 1959 and in New York the next year. Also in 1960 he presented The Sandbox, followed by The American Dream the next year as well as The Death of Bessie Smith. But it was his study of a troubled marriage, Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf, which made him the darling of the critics and audiences alike. I was most fortunate to be in attendance opening night. It won the New York Drama Critics Award. All his other plays have paled by comparison, from The Ballad of the Sad Cafe, Tiny Alice (1964), Malcolm, the libretto for Breakfast at Tiffanys, but A Delicate Balance has had greater success, although Everything in the Garden, All Over (1971), Seascape (1975), The Lady from Dubuque (1980), The Man Who Had Three Arms (1983) were all short-lived.

MEMORIES - MY YEARS OF THEATREGOING 1955-1999 - Part 6

In 1963 a friend and myself drove to New York for the weekend just to see the production of Eugene O'Neill's "Strange Interlude," with a dream cast - William Prince, Franchot Tone, Geraldine Page, Ben Gazzara, Pat Hingle, Betty Field, Richard Thomas, Jane Fonda and Geoffrey Horne. The play itself doesn't work by today's standards as it is difficult to accept all the asides, but what a performance. While there, I also got to see Judy Holliday's final Broadway show, the musical "Hot Spot." She died shortly afterwards of cancer. We get so used to seeing these stars on stage, that when something happens it is like losing a friend. But we are left with the wonderful performances which will stay with us for a lifetime. And after seeing most of Judy Holliday's hits, it was a pity that her final show was a disaster. Productions in Toronto included the pre-Broadway "The Girl Who Came to Supper," with Tessie O'Shea, Florence Henderson, Roderick Cook and Jose Ferrer. It would later reach the screen as the Prince and the Showgirl with Marilyn Monroe and Laurence Olivier. We also got a production of "School for Scandal," with John Gielgud, Gwen Ffrangcon-Davies, Ralph Richardson, Geraldine McEwan and Laurence Naismith; Jack Benny with special guest Jane Morgan, touring productions of How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying and I Can Get It For You Wholesale, appearances by Danny Kaye, Steve Lawrence and Eydie Gorme, Ballets Folklorico de Mexico, and Frankie Avalon. The Royal Alexandra presented Charlottetown Festival's Sunshine Town, based on the work by Stephen Leacock, Sabrina Fairby Samuel Taylor, later to be a vehicle for Audrey Hepburn, T.S. Eliot's The Cocktail Party, a revival of Desert Song with Howard Keele, a Canadian production of Godspell with a great cast, Jane Eyre from England, and Johnny Belinda from Charlottetown Festival, as well as touring productions of Philadelphia Here I Come, with Donal Donnelly and The Philanthropist.

DANCERS/CHOREOGRAPHER - MICHAEL KIDD (1919 - )

New Yorker Michael's plans changed from chemical engineering to ballet, and he performed with the Eugene Loring Dance Players and Ballet Theatre before choreographing Finian's Rainbow (1947). This was followed by such hits as Love Life (1948), Guys and Dolls (1950) and Can Can (1953). To me, his masterpiece is L'il Abner, which will be available for posterity on film.
