Black TV
Author: Bethonie Butler
Publisher: Black Dog & Leventhal
ISBN: 0762481528
Category : Performing Arts
Languages : en
Pages : 439
Book Description
With iconic imagery and engrossing text, Black TV is the first book of its kind to celebrate the groundbreaking, influential, and often under-appreciated shows centered on Black people and their experiences from the last fifty years. Over the past decade, television has seen an explosion of acclaimed and influential debut storytellers including Issa Rae (Insecure), Donald Glover (Atlanta), and Michaela Coel (I May Destroy You). This golden age of Black television would not be possible without the actors, showrunners, and writers that worked for decades to give voice to the Black experience in America. Written by veteran TV reporter Bethonie Butler, Black TV tells the stories behind the pioneering series that led to this moment, celebrating the laughs, the drama, and the performances we’ve loved over the last fifty years. Beginning with Julia, the groundbreaking sitcom that made Diahann Carroll the first Black woman to lead a prime-time network series as something other than a servant, she explores the 1960s and 1970s as an era of unprecedented representation, with shows like Soul Train, Roots, and The Jeffersons. She unpacks the increasingly nuanced comedies of the 1980s from 227 to A Different World, and how they paved the way for the ’90s Black-sitcom boom that gave us The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air and Living Single. Butler also looks at the visionary comedians—from Flip Wilson to the Wayans siblings to Dave Chappelle—and connects all these achievements to the latest breakthroughs in television with showrunners like Shonda Rhimes, Ava DuVernay, and Quinta Brunson leading the charge. With dozens of photographs reminding readers of memorable moments and scenes, Butler revisits breakout performances and important guest appearances, delivering some overdue accolades along the way. So, put on your Hillman sweatshirt, make some popcorn, and get ready for a dyn-o-mite retrospective of the most groundbreaking and entertaining shows in television history.

SEDUCED! Nic Xandreou thought Katie was a gold digger out to trap his brother into marriage.

The Adventures of Sebastian the Fox
Author: Kay Dreyfus
Publisher: 3feet publishing
ISBN: 0646878646
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 56
Book Description
This book is a snapshot pictorial performance history of what is possibly George Dreyfus's most frequently played composition, "The Adventures of Sebastian the Fox". The music first appeared in 1963 as accompaniment to Tim Burstall's 13-episode children's television series, for which Dreyfus wrote some 120 minutes of music. In 1968 he made a suite consisting of eight of the main musical pieces which he subsequently arranged for a dozen different ensembles, many of which have been recorded. The movements of the Suite are connected by short descriptive narrations, particularly suitable for children. These exist in English, German, Chinese, Russian, Hebrew and Yiddish, indicating the performances the Suite has had throughout the world, within Australia, throughout Europe, and from China to Paraguay. Dreyfus (a bassoon player) has personally used the Suite over the 60 years since it was created as a vehicle for making music with and for young people in a variety of educational situations: in metropolitan, regional and outback Australia, on tours and in residencies in Europe and China.In 2005, Dreyfus and his composer son Jonathan created arrangements, for small ensemble, of the music for four episodes of the original TV series, which were then performed 'live' to film to youth theatre audiences and school groups throughout Australia, in Germany and in Switzerland."The Adventures of Sebastian the Fox" has represented Australian music in many countries, has brought enjoyment to hundreds (if not thousands) of listeners, appeals across generations, and has proved uniquely durable. The photographs capture a selection of many different performance situations. They are at once a celebration of music making and a tribute to the joyous, democratic resourcefulness of the composer.
