Abstract:
Roy Mitchell, Canadian pioneer of modernism in the theatre, has been largely ignored by Canadian theatre historians and publishers. Creative Theatre (1929), his summa, was republished in 1969 - in the United States. It is the purpose of this article to give an overview of Mitchell's innovative theoretical ideas (as expressed in his three books and numerous articles); of the early practical work at the Arts and Letters Club and at Hart House Theatre, which led to these ideas; and of the interrelationship between Mitchell's aesthetics of the theatre and his theosophist beliefs.

Abstract:
This study examines the decolonization in the prophetic period of Muhammad SAW. Different analyses occur among historians, with some viewing Islam as supportive of colonialism and others as anti-colonialism. This study aims to answer how decolonization was practiced in the prophetic period. The study’s objective is to demonstrate that Prophet Muhammad SAW laid out the foundations of thoughts and actions of decolonization. The colonial enterprises undertaken during the subsequent caliphates, which some historians such as Philip K. Hitt assumed, differ fundamentally from the principles of govern

While the revolution inspired dramatic protest and equally spectacular creative expression in the form of experimental theatre, music, art, spoken word, and other forms, many Egyptian artistes and cultural critics have bemoaned a general stymying of artistic

In addition to being a bestselling author, Ray Bradbury was also a voracious reader and lifelong advocate of libraries and literacy. His books, including his most famous work, Fahrenheit 451, include themes of anti-censorship, the importance of literacy, and warnings of over-reliance on technology. Bradbury’s attitude towards technology was always more concern than hatred—concern for society’s over-dependence on technology. Recent years of digital culture have proven that Bradbury was correct to be concerned about dependence on the internet for constant visual stimulus. However, his optimism,

In November 2011, on the brink of a new wave of conflict over Egypt's future, an obviously energized audience crowded into Cairo's Rawabet Theatre for The Tahrir Monologues, a documentary play celebrating the Eighteen Days leading to Hosni Mubarak's ouster. Apparently a premature celebration, the show turned out instead to be a self-conscious nostalgia exercise meant to register the decay of revolutionary ideals. This essay analyses The Tahrir Monologues and several other theatrical responses to the unfolding – not to say unravelling – situation in post-Mubarak Egypt. Amid the grotesque improv

‘Archives and Anecdotes’ pursues a historical syntax that can parse both words, since the two have traditionally been understood to exercise independently if not to outright antagonize one another. This chapter argues, however, that theatre anecdotes have at least as much to say about performance as they do about theatre history and myths; therefore it moves away from an assessment of the role anecdotes play in traditional historiography and towards an exploration of how they function in performance studies. Working through several examples, ‘Archives and Anecdotes’ ultimately argues that thea

The photographs of twentieth-century photographer Roy DeCarava are a rich case study for mapping the visual theater of race and religion in twentieth-century America. Despite visual similarities in his photographs to contemporary documentary photographers, DeCarava contended that claims to document race in fact worked to invest power in the “madness” of “skin color.” Such a statement echoes the teachings of prophets of black urban religion who incorporated critiques of racial classification into their theological visions.

Abstract By the beginning of 1916, apart from statewide bans on the exhibition of The Birth of a Nation in Ohio and Kansas, the campaign to suppress the film run by the NAACP had largely failed. Over the next few years, however, the organization’s efforts to prevent screenings proved considerably more successful. Part of the reason for this success was that events encouraged the NAACP to adopt a new and more convincing argument. “The day may come,” observed Elijah Hodges with prophetic foresight in July 1915, “when we shall need the colored man’s help to defend the flag.” Black soldiers played

This chapter traces the roots of a musical theater aesthetic in Mormonism by arguing that vocal theatricality is a theological principle in the faith, to the degree that Mormonism is built upon a theology of voice. Two stories of vocal theatricality in early Mormon lore--namely, when Brigham Young mimics the voice of slain Mormon prophet Joseph Smith and when Book of Mormon prophet Nephi impersonates his slain ecclesiastical leader in order to obtain a set of sacred records--exemplify the Mormon ideal of a disciplined voice capable of speaking literally the voice of another person.

Abstract The eighties are a watershed. The Exclusion Crisis, the death of Charles, and the ousting of James contribute to drastic changes in theatrical conditions. The drama was changing its character anyway: signs of the disintegration of the Carolean synthesis in heroic drama and social sex comedy are plain by the later seventies. But extrinsic factors, especially the end of playhouse competition, help cause rapid shifts in play fashions, followed by stagnation. A flood of political drama (1680-2) is succeeded by the virtual cessation of playwriting. Even with the King’s Company very shaky,

It is the communication that is not prophecy at all, for it is concerned with the present and the past, too, as much as it is concerned with the possible future. That is the gesture of poetry. The chapter then assesses the problem of communication, considering the debasers of values and words who break meaning down. It also discusses poetic drama and i
