Other than Ionesco'splays, what are some other good theatre of the absurd works?

I recently Stage-managed a performance of Ionesco' Rhinoceros, and watched a performance of The Bald Soprano, and really enjoyed them. Thus, sparking my interest in theatre of the absurd.

Samuel Beckett (his "Waiting for Godot" is probably the most famous play to date), Jean Genet, Arthur Adamov, and Harold Pinter, although these writers were not always comfortable with the label and sometimes preferred to use terms such as "Anti-Theater" or "New Theater". Other playwrights associated with this type of theater include Tom Stoppard, Arthur Kopit, Friedrich D眉rrenmatt, Fernando Arrabal, Edward Albee, N.F. Simpson, Boris Vian, Peter Weiss, Vaclav Havel, and Jean Tardieu. The French philosopher Albert Camus defines the human condition in his 1942 essay, The Myth of Sisyphus, as basically meaningless. Camus argued that humanity had to resign itself to recognizing that a fully satisfying rational explanation of the universe was beyond its reach; in that sense, the world must ultimately be seen as absurd.

I am in university and picked television acting and theatre acting, as I wanted to learn all aspects

do you think that I made the right move by doing this?I dont want to get the two mixed up when I finish university and have this stoop me from getting a job, I just wanted to be good at the different forms of acting, so I picked these two as options in my 2nd year!I mean you get some Hollywood actors who go back to Theatre acting for a while, dont you?

I am in university and picked television acting and theatre acting, as I wanted to learn all aspects of actingevents

When you get out of university and are looking for professional work, your first priority will be to get an agent. You might find that this is easier with a drama school qualification, rather than just a degree - it depends if you have a showcase at the end of the course which agents attend. But all training is good, whether it is theater, film or telelvision, the more training you have, the better.

After that, I assure you, you will do anything that pays. It is only actors with massive success who have the luxury of choosing between theatre, TV and film. For everyone else, its whatever you can get.

I am in university and picked television acting and theatre acting, as I wanted to learn all aspects of actinghome theatre opera theater

its a good idea, both are very different, yes some actors do tread the broads, good luck, and keep going.
Acting isn't about what you can learn at University. You become an actor because you have to; something inside won't let you do anything else. If you don't have that passion, then all the knocks and disappointments will soon make you change your ambition.

What you'll learn will make you very useful in the entertainment industry, but it won't make you a good (let alone a great) actor.
You will quickly find out the difference. Any training is good. If you really have talent perhaps you could apply to a drama school after your degree or if REALLY good you can start going to auditions. Aim high, work your socks off, Do any sort of acting you can get. The advice above is good from Mrs C

I need some advice about a 6.1 Home Theatre System?

I recently won a 6.1 Home Theatre System that came with a 5.1 AV Receiver. I have been told that it will still work, just don't use the extra speaker. As the prize was advertised as a Top of the Range 6.1 HTS I don't feel I have received what was advertised. I am on selling it as it is not suitable for my needs and in fact, I did think I was winning a TV and DVD player. So, to date, no luck in selling as it is not the complete package, if you know what I mean. I am not technically brilliant tho I am quickly learning. The place that supplied me the prize just offered me a deal of buying another receiver at a reduced price leaving me with 2 of them and I will omit my comment back to them. I am starting to feel a tad ungrateful seeing as it was a prize tho it is done all the time. Would any of you technically brilliant people out there give me some advice please. Thanks, Suzanne.,

I need some advice about a 6.1 Home Theatre System?getting late

While the prize doesn't meet your expectations it is still a useful item and has value.

BTW, 5.1 is a perfectly functional system seeing as how there is relatively little 6.1 audio material. In reality it is reasonable to just not use one of the speakers. I suggest that once you have a TV and DVD player you might value the HT system higher since the "6.1 sound system" complements the DVD/TV well -- giving you a full "home theater system".

But if you really don't want the sound system several options come to mind.

The first, and probably the better option is to simply accept the prize. You can sell it even though the speakers are 6.1 and the receiver is 5.1 ... just sell separately (or sell as a 5.1 system with a bonus speaker).

As a variation, have you inquired about getting credit for the receiver and speakers toward a TV and DVD player? If new/unused this should be possible. You can't expect full value maybe, but maybe enough to make purchase of the TV a relatively inexpensive transaction.

Or consider legal action. If you have in writing that the prize was a "top of the line 6.1 HTS" you could consult a lawyer re whether the company falsely advertized the prize. However, note that there is alway room to interpret, and depending on wording a lawyer may advise you have little chance of success. For example, while the receiver is not 6.1 the speakers are, so it could be argued this is a 6.1 system since you have 6 speakers and a subwoofer.

I don't know what country you are in so details differ, but given the relatively low total value you may need to pursue this in small claims court (From experience I would caution that this can be a frustrating and potentially useless exercise). However, there may be allowance in your legal system (There is in my jurisdiction) for a brief free consultation with a lawyer to at least get an opinion on the merits of your case.

Hope there is something useful to you here. Try to take a positive view on this. At worst you are a winner, even if the prize is other than what you expected.

I need some advice about a 6.1 Home Theatre System?regal theater opera theater

They gave you a set of 7 (L, R, C, SR, SL, CR, Sub) speakers and a receiver that only supports 6 (L, C, R, Sr, Sl, and sub)?

Hook it up and enjoy it, what is your problem?

Put it on Ebay for a penny, both parts, it will sell.

I use the website www.screenit.com a LOT! It's designed for parents to check out content and suitability for kids, but I use it for my own decisions. They tell you everything about the movie that might be objectionable, as far as sex, violence, language, bad behaviors that might be imitated by kids, stuff like that. They also warn you if there are things about the movie that might be physically unsuitable, such as strobe lights or shaky camera angles. They have sections for new movies/DVD's as well as stuff that's been out a while. Hope this helps!

Help me decide my Audition Piece for Broadway Musical Theatre!!!?

Hi!

Two weeks from now, I'll be heading up to NYC for another stint of auditions for Broadway Musical Theatre.

I have A LOT on my plate right now, and would like some suggestions on pieces to perform for 16-bars.

I have a wide range, but am most comfortable as a mezzo soprano (having performed as Eponine, Fontine, Marguerite St. Just, Elphiba, Lucy, Maria Von Trapp and others).

I refuse to do anything from Les Mis (although I LOVE it), Wicked, or Phantom.

I was thinking the following:

"A New Life"- Jekyll and Hyde

"Hold On"- The Secret Garden"

"I'll Forget You"- The Scarlet Pimpernel

if you have other suggestions, please note them. You also might get a better idea of how I sound from a clip at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gmShBKTp4...

2 part question: How are Black American actors received in the UK? Is theatre innovative in the UK?

I have heard that overseas black-American Actors are received quite well, and have great opportunities for work in the United Kingdom (which is where I am considering moving upon college graduation.) I have also heard that they aren't considered any more than the black-Americans that live in America. I just wanted to know if anyone had any insight...

Also, I am really into experimental theatre...i wanted to know how innovative it is in the UK...

also, if you know of any famous experimental theatre companies in the US...I'd be grateful to hear about those as well.

How do I get a job at a professional theatre (after college)?

I am majoring in theatre arts studies, with emphisies in acting and stage managing. I like stage managing, and I think it would be easier to find a job as a stage manager, but my deepest passion is acting and don't want to get stuck in a position that will block all acting opportunities.

How do I get a job at a professional theatre (after college)?ms stress

Your college should provide your with information about this, but many theatre offer fellowship programs for beginning actors and as a way to become an EMC.

Check out the various Shakespeare festivals around the country ( I know many people who started out at these and became Equity that way), also make rounds of the big conference auditions, like SETC and UPTA. This website has a list of a lot of these combined auditions - http://www.redbirdstudio.com/AWOL/combau...

Apply, just like everyone else. As for the acting, do we really need anymore of you around??

Arent there enough actors working as waiters, newspaper delivery, stage managing, already.

OK, mostly, I was kidding. but not entirely. You either work a night job that allows you to eat and go to casting calls durig the day, or you get a real job, and hope to get found. Seems like stage manager would put you in "the world", at least to a degree.

How do you connect a turntable through a home theatre system with no grounding pin?

I have a Technics direct drive turntable and a Sony 5.1 home theatre in a box setup.

How do you connect a turntable through a home theatre system with no grounding pin?binoculars

My guess is that you do not have a turntable input. That is how most receivers are these days (which is a very stupid omission on the part of the manufacturers). If that is the case with yours, our going to have to buy separate a turntable preamp to go between the turntable and one of the inputs on the receiver. Phono inputs included on receivers are SPECIFICALLY AND ONLY designed for turntable use, nothing else. Failure to do so will result in almost no sound from the turntable and LOTS of hum and other noise. Your best bet is to go to a store that specializes in DJ sound equipment to get the separate pre amp. I had to do the very same thing because my receiver has no phono input. Most of these separate preamps, like the one I bought, will take care of ALL the hook up issues ;sound boosting, grounding, etc. Any decent DJ salesman at the store should be able to answer most of your questions.

How do you connect a turntable through a home theatre system with no grounding pin?violin opera theater

Just find a good ground to attach the turntable ground wire to. A screw that attaches to metal chassis on one of your other components is a likely choice.
Most people don't need a phono input but you will.

Here you go.

http://www.turntableneedles.com/index.as...
Find a small device called pre-amp at any electronic store.It costs you around $35 - 40.I have seen one made by a brand called Recoton.

That is the right way to do it.Otherwise, buy a new receiver that has phono input.
just nip off that third prong
You don't have a mixer????

I've hooked my turntables up to a home theatre system, but I used my mixer.

You can try to hook the RCA cords to the system. Just match up the red and white wires to the corresponding colors on the home theatre system. You'll have an extra spot for the video output. Just leave that open. Good luck... hope this helps.
you cannot
There should be at least a connection marked for phono, some receivers have them others do not.

If yours does not then you can go to Radio Shack and buy an adapter or pre-amp for turntables , and you would connect this to your turntable then to your receiver, and all should be fine.

Sorry mate only two ways in - paid for training or un-paid work in local theatre.

However the good news is that if you are any good sound techies are quiet saught after. Once you get to know directors/Stage Managers they will pass your name on and you will work your way up through profit-sharing shows (they make money, you get paid) and eventually paid work. But its all about time, especially if you can't go to college.
I know you said you can't fund college, but what about a loan?

Because North Carolina School of the Arts has a major of Sound Design in Theatre. It's probably the best, so that would be your best bet.

What is the difference between "Multimedia speakers" and "Home theatre system" ?

What is the difference between "Multimedia speakers" and "Home theatre system" ? which is best for PC ?palace theatre

there is a huge difference of performance but if u want a powerful system, home theatre is ur choice boy. Buy a good 5.1 or 7.1 home theatre system and it should rock for sure.

What is the difference between "Multimedia speakers" and "Home theatre system" ? which is best for PC ?concert tickets opera theater

simply a combination of multimedia speakers make Home theatre system .If you can afford home theatre wud go perfect with a PC
There's a thin line, between the two. In the ealy days, computer speakers with 2 speakers were normal. Nowadays, you can buy 5.1 systems, like the ones you do for your home audio entertainment system.

The only difference between the two, are the connections. They are almost all interconnectable, with the help of some converters, so...

Just go to your local store, and check some speaker sets out.
Multimedia speakers are just ordinary speakers. They are generally 2 small speakers with a nifty bass. A home theater system consists of more than 2 speakers (usually 5-6 small satellite-like speakers)

Both units are suitable to your system. However, if you want to have an ear-ringing sound system, you may opt for a home theater system. However, the price of a home theater system is significantly higher than that of multimedia speakers.
Basically, the difference is the price. If you don't have much money to spend, then go for multimedia speakers. (they're the most common speakers for PC today)

If money is not a problem then go for a home theater system. (the speakers are bigger and it has usually a separate receiver/amplifier). If you want the clearest and most powerful setup then home theater system is the way to go.
multimedia system has two external speakers and home theatre has internal speakers built for close rooms
i use Home theatre system on my pc its very clear and good try that

What's the best way to network with MySpace - theatre?

Just recently joined myspace, and I want to network with people who are involved in theatre. Training myself to be a multimedia designer and want to meet people who I could potentially collaborate with.

What's the best way to network with MySpace - theatre?regal theater

There is no 'one click' solution. You browse the MySpace theater section. Read peoples blogs. When you see a profile of someone that you'd like to network with, IM them and send a friend request...not all will be accepted, but some will, so this builds your friends list. Send bulletins about what you are doing, learning, or need to know. Some people will respond. If you find any good theater blogs, subscribe to them and leave comments.

You should blog regularly too. Do all this every day or a few times a week. Check the MySpace film-makers forum and participate in the chat, too. After a while you will have a nice network of theater friends.

What's the best way to network with MySpace - theatre?performing art center opera theater

There used to be a "Theatre" networking category which you could include on your profile. I think it may have been discontinued, as I have tried to find it since.

The next best solution is to include something like the following under your "networking" category: Film-Visual Effects-Art Direction.Then go to your profile, click one of those words, and you should be able to narrow the field more by area, age, etc.

You can also search the MySpace groups for people with similar interests.

first of all, you really should stop smoking drugs. they will rot your mind and make you lazy and stupid.

Do you have any inkling about the way this girl might feel about you. Does she have a boyfriend already? If you think you might have a shot....don't get high and just try to have a simple conversation with her. Lots of eye contact, but no staring, ya goof. When you see her responding to you, then hold her, then kiss her and you are on your way.

if you didn't stay high all the time, you might know how to do this on your own.

What would be a good topic for a paper for class - cultural diversity in theatre...?pacific theater opera theater

You can probably talk about a variety of ethnicity and their stereotypes being used as a humor or even a definite thing on theatre. By theatre, I'm assuming you mean movies as a type of media. For example, based on the stereotypes, Asian culture symbolizes martial art, yakuzas and animated characteristics. African American culture may symbolize the gangsters and the ghetto or Hispanic culture may also symbolize gangsters and drug dealers. Even though we learn at schools not to stereotype about other groups, it's surprising how much stereotypes there are in the movies. Either many movie producers aren't educated enough or those stereotypes are just what people want to see pleasuring from holding onto our ignorance. For some reason people appreciate these stereotypical superficial images of the ethnic groups in America on screen and there should be a lot of reasons explaining why. Perhaps, people fear; perhaps people are indifferent about finding out the real human qualities from people in those groups. And this vicious circle of images portrayed on media keeps on affecting people cognitively, behaviorally and attitudinally. Well, did I talk about things that are too obvious? lol Just my thoughts from being a Communications major in college years ago. Good luck.
You could write about how Native American storytelling is reflected in cowboy poetry readings, spaghetti westerns, or modern American theatre in general if that better fits your assignment. One possible discussion is how Native American symbolism is used in set design to demonstrate desert or Southwest geography. Hope I helped. Good luck with your assignment.
What about the first African American cast of "Cat on a Hot Tin Roof" now on broadway. It is very interesting for a Tennessee Williams "deep south" sort of show. You could focus on minorities in traditionally "white" roles.

Depends on how long have you known each other and how well do you know each other. But my guess tells me if you aren't involved and he is trying to get you to go out with him or do "things" with him then he would throw it out there just to get you to
He's acting.
Is he fighting his own homosexuality? Coming Out Day isn't until August, I think....
some men...really have the nerve...kissing your hand....dirty scoundrel
if you really wanna know..ask him! and observe his behaviour..is he like that to other girls or just you? the way he looks at you and behaves around you..you can pick up little hints here and there if you're observant enough..
