13 Strategies To Jumpstart Your Productivity
Stepcase Lifehack: Looking to increase your productivity? You’ve come to the right article. I don’t claim to be a productivity master (I always think there’s room for improvement), but I am very passionate about increasing productivity. I’m always looking for different ways to be more productive – stealing pockets of time where I can, deprioritizing the unimportant, getting system overhauls, etc. And I love it when I see my efforts pay off in the form of increased outputs at the end of the day.Richard III
Pittsburgh City Paper: I've rarely seen a Shakespeare play in Pittsburgh so superbly realized: Richard III, produced by the Carnegie Mellon School of Drama, stuns and stirs. Director Matt Gray's remarkable conception surges with disturbing vitality. In every role, even small ones, the students do remarkable justice to the text. Clearly they have been excellently prepared by voice coach Janet Madele Feindel; their words come across with clarity and depth.
‘Glee’ series fuels interest in high school show choirs
The Boston Globe: "Could this have anything to do with “Glee,’’ the Fox television series about an Ohio high school glee club full of losers? A club that bears a striking resemblance to Music Unlimited? Lopez prefers to think the change of heart occurs when his classmates see how good his show choir is. Still, he says “Glee’’ has made a huge difference in his life. The series “brought more of my personality out,’’ said Lopez, who had never danced before. “I used to be really shy. I used to have stage fright. I used to be scared, a lot. Now I’m not scared of going up on stage anymore.’’" Via ArtsJournal
Shakespeare, Sans Rehearsal
Backstage: Born out of a desire to take on ambitious plays that require large casts—and, typically, ample rehearsal time and some serious cash—a group of classically trained actors has devised a Shakespeare-on-a-shoestring approach.
A show is chosen and a cast is recruited. They have about six weeks to learn their lines, which they're allowed to practice with each other as long as no blocking is worked out in advance. They come up with their own costumes. In the case of "Titus," perhaps the Bard's most extravagantly violent play, they get together once or twice to work out basic fight-scene staging, so that no one loses an eye.
Not until the day of the performance do they all gather for the first time, to work out entrances and exits only.
