Podcasts about Pantomime

durée : 00:05:05 - Capture d'écrans - par : Eva Roque - Arte propose une soirée spéciale consacrée aux "Temps modernes". Après la diffusion du film de Chaplin, un documentaire admirable revient sur la genèse de cette œuvre. Notamment sur les hésitations du cinéaste à céder aux sirènes du cinéma parlant.

HOUR ONE: Just because the Ouija board is made by a board game manufacturer does not mean it should be treated like a toy – as many have discovered. *** The similar game, Charlie Charlie seems more innocent – but is so dangerous that in one school where children were playing it, they had to call in an exorcist. *** And you never know when playing any of these types of games what kind of spirit you might be inviting into our realm – but I can tell you this…. It's never good. They might pretend to be good, but that's far from the truth. And one particular demon has found notoriety through the Ouija board community, a demon you don't want to risk opening a door for. It's name is Zozo.==========HOUR TWO: Did lost cosmonauts make it into space before Yuri Gagarin? (The Tombs in Space) *** Don't take a gift from Gracie Watson's grave... or her life-like statue might cry tears of blood. (Gracie's Ghost) *** Did Bonnie Scott run away? Was she kidnapped? Murdered perhaps? All anyone knew was that no one had a clue where she was. She had simply disappeared without a trace. (The Murder of Bonnie Leigh Scott) *** A latchkey kid comes home to an empty house… or so they thought until they heard footsteps in another room. (The Laundry Room)==========SUDDEN DEATH OVERTIME: People often encounter strange and frightening things when they experience sleep paralysis – but in one particular story, the horrors began well before going to bed. (Sleep Paralysis in Bangkok) *** Samuel Joselyn was buried in 1810 in a North Carolina cemetery.  Unfortunately, it doesn't appear that Samuel was actually DEAD at the time of his burial! (Buried Alive in Wilmington) *** in 1894 Rosa Lochner was a witness to murder, but she had been deaf since birth and her spoken vocabulary was limited. So how could she testify against the accused? (Murder In Pantomime) *** A boy wakes to find his previously closed curtains now open – and the only explanation involves a previous resident of the house he's now living in. (Strange Manifestations) *** Mention the word “Chupacabra” and most people will think of a strange, hairless dog-like animal. They are never described as having the ability to fly… until now. (Winged Chupacabras) *** These UFOs aren't shiny metallic discs or cigar-shaped spaceships. They are humanoid – and they fly without the help of a jetpack, wings, cape or even a broom to sit on. And the sightings are still coming in all throughout Mexico. (The Flying Humanoids of Mexico) *** The North Carolina Cherokee have a story about how dangerous it can be even near a calm river – where the waters can suddenly foam and a giant beast can appear on the rocks. (James and the Giant Leech) *** Supernatural women, shadowy men, odd animal sightings, and more… they can all be found at late-night truck stops if you're not careful.

This week Megan and Jordan are joined by the wonderful performing, milk drinking, dog loving, plant father that is Thomas Walton! Thomas is here to discuss his journey into the musical theatre industry and how he's giving back to his community.Thomas tells his story from being a young working class lad in ‘Alifax, pursuing theatre despite the all too common lack of opportunity in his area. Discussing the importance of school trips to the theatre, Pantomime and its accessibility, reach, culture and tradition and how it upholds regional theatres, the value and quality of work that is produced by regional theatres, the journey of some of those shows to the West End and how perception of a show can change based on location alone. Thomas also discusses his experience at drama school, casting types and height restrictions, choreographing against those archetypes, partnering, sports massage, muggle jobs and his professional credits - including his experience with puppetry, rightfully likening it to holding an SAS stress position!He then tells the incredible story of how he chose to give back to his community and fill gaps he felt as a child by founding his Community Interest Company - Theatre North. A platform designed to support and celebrate Northern theatre, with hopes to host the North's own version of West End Live! Acting Up could not be more in favour! Thomas shares the companies five goals and the ethos, make sure to check it out @theatre.north !Tangents include Britney the houseplant, our mutual Mia, Borrow my Doggy Jordans rant on height misogyny, Kenyan pen-pals, sustainability and cutting down on dairy!You can find us as @actingupthepodcast on all socials ;)We are @megan_alderson_ & @jordan.skidsArtwork by @those_who.tryWanna be on the pod?

Von der Performance über Pantomime bis hin zum Puppenspiel – das Figurentheater vereint viele Künste. Das Festival „Imaginale“ zeigt in Stuttgart, Mannheim oder Heilbronn die Vielfalt.

It seems strata may have a new pantomime villain (like we need one).  This week we look at multi-millionaire developer of fancy pants apartment blocks Tim Gurner.He once shocked an economic conference by saying the country needs 40-50 per cent unemployment.If that wasn't bad enough it's alleged he was the first public figure to draw parallels between young people eating smashed avocado and not being able to afford to buy a home.Now this Melbourne developer of luxury apartments, and some of his customers, are in conflict as defects start to surface in his uber-fancy St Moritz block in the Victorian capital.It's not so much how the mighty have fallen (because he hasn't) as how the prices have fallen, and in a rising market.But before that, we look at the new regulations for strata managers that come in nest week (Feb3) and wonder how much difference they will really make.And finally, Jimmy comes up with his radical plan to build more affordable apartments, saying that affordable luxury is impossible but liveable affordability may be the way forwardIf you can tolerate a bit of noise from your neighbours, and one lift instead of two, surely apartment blocks could be built more cheaply without the risk of them falling down. That's all in the Flat Chat Wrap.____________________________________________________Flat Chat is all about apartment living, especially in Australia.Find us on Facebook and Twitter and the Flat Chat website.Send comments and questions to mail@flatchat.com.au.Register to ask and answer questions about apartment living anonymously on the website.Recorded by Jimmy Thomson & Sue Williams; Transcribed by Otter.ai.Find out more about Sue Williams and Jimmy Thomson on their websites.

Shavington Village Festival's Pantomime is "Rapunzel" this year. They invited Kev Watson to join them in rehearsals to meet the director and cast. It was a hairy experience head and shoulders above the rest...

Pantomime - A British theatrical traditionBooing and hissing the villain, cheering and heckling the cast, throwing sweets and candy back at the audience and a theatre sing along. An awful trip to the theatre you ask? ‘Oh yes it is!' Well actually… ‘Oh no it isn't!' Pantomime is as British as Fish and Chips, a love of queuing and a Sunday Roast but if you live in another part of the globe you may never have heard of, let alone seen, one. Keeping Matthew company this week are guests who will be able to tell you all about it. From how to write and direct the genre to choreography and choosing the best music to fit the show. All from their experiences of working with The Bob Hope theatre in South East London for a local family audience. So settle in and forget your theatrical troubles because after all remember, ‘It's behind you!'Link to the Bobhope theatre: http://www.bobhopetheatre.co.uk/index.htmlIf you wish to contact us, please send us a text message by clicking on this text.Ever wondered what goes into putting on a show?

Polit-Beben im Bundeskanzleramt! Seit wenigen Wochen ist der ehemalige YouTuber und Podcaster Philipp Meichsner der neue Bundesminister für besondere Aufgaben und schon sorgt er für Aufruhr. Seine erste Ansage: Die Liebe ist NICHT blind – und das will er mit einer neuen Reality-Show beweisen, die ganz Deutschland schockieren und begeistern soll. Unter dem Titel "Love Is Deaf" plant der Minister ein bahnbrechendes TV-Experiment. Der Clou: Die Teilnehmer können sich von Anfang an sehen, aber nicht miteinander sprechen. Stattdessen kommunizieren sie via Pantomime, Tanz und Blickkontakt. „Wir schmeißen das Konzept von 'Love Is Blind' in die Tonne“, erklärt der Minister mit einem breiten Grinsen, „denn Optik spielt einfach eine Riesenrolle! Wer was anderes sagt, hat keine Ahnung von der echten Welt.“ Das Konzept der Show: In schalldichten Kabinen, getrennt durch eine Glasscheibe, versuchen sich die Kandidaten mit Mimik, Gestik und würdelosen Tanzbewegungen zu verzaubern. Nur wer mit Oberflächlichkeiten überzeugt, kommt weiter – bis es am Ende zur ultimativen Frage kommt: Willst du diese Person heiraten? Meichsner dazu: „Wenn man sich nur auf das Aussehen konzentriert, merkt man gleich, ob die Chemie stimmt. Man braucht keine Worte, um zu wissen, ob da was knistert.“ Die Show soll angeblich auf Netflix laufen, doch auch RTL hat schon Interesse signalisiert. Insider berichten, dass der Minister persönlich in die Produktion eingebunden sein will – und sogar plant, selbst als Moderator aufzutreten. Aus dem politischen Berlin hagelt es bereits Kritik: Ein Sprecher der Opposition wirft Phil vor, das Ministerium in eine Reality-Show-Bühne zu verwandeln. „Das Amt des Ministers für besondere Aufgaben ist nicht dazu da, irgendwelche Dating-Shows zu produzieren!“, hieß es aus CDU-Kreisen. Doch der Minister kontert scharf: „Wieso nicht? Die Gesellschaft braucht Antworten auf die große Frage: Kann man echte Liebe ohne Worte finden? Und ich liefere die Beweise!“ Die Nation ist gespalten: Auf Social Media trendet bereits der Hashtag #LoveIsDeaf. Während Fans die unorthodoxe Idee feiern, fragen sich Kritiker: Hat Phil das Konzept des Ministeriums nicht ganz verstanden? Ein Twitter-User schreibt: „Endlich jemand, der politische Verantwortung übernimmt und dabei richtig unterhaltsam ist! Danke, Phil!“ Ein anderer hingegen: „Brauchen wir wirklich eine mit Steuergeldern finanzierte Trash-Show?“ Die Produktion von "Love Is Deaf" soll bereits im Frühjahr starten – angeblich mit einem Millionenbudget. Ein Insider verrät: „Der Minister hat Großes vor und will die deutsche TV-Landschaft revolutionieren. Ob das gelingt, bleibt abzuwarten – aber eines ist sicher: Langweilig wird es mit ihm nicht!“

There was no rain on this parade! It's estimated about 5,000 lined Casemates and Main Street for the Three Kings Cavalcade. It wasn't clear how well supported the event would be, as the start time was brought forward to 2pm. But it was very well supported. Stefan Borge and Jose Mari Ruiz were at the heart of GBC's TV coverage.Many people start off their new year with a resolution to get fit and healthy. Statistics in the UK show that approximately 70% of people who resolve to be fitter on New Year's Day will give up on their fitness goals within the first month. Karess Zammit and Karim Vatvani were in the studio to, hopefully, keep us on track and committed to fitness.It's panto season...oh yes it is! At the end of January, Theatre Makers are putting on a performance of Alice in Wonderland at the Ince's Hall Theatre. We spoke to Ella Vatvani and Tim Seed, who play two key characters in the story, about this year's panto.It's been a quiet time for local sports with the Christmas break, but it's back with a bang with some big fixtures taking place this week in both football and hockey. Jose Mari Ruiz told us what we can be looking forward to, and shared some big news in darts.And, tonight on GBC Television, we're looking forward to a new programme, 'If on a Winter's Night' featuring the poetry of Trino Cruz and the guitar playing of Elie Massias. It's described as an unforgettable collaboration where language and music meet. Trino Cruz told us more. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

For anyone that can help Christian Allcorn, you can contact him on Twitter - @ChristianAllco1 Or Linkedin -https://www.linkedin.com/in/christian-allcorn-87057023/ Many will be disappointed with this fight, but I am proud of Mike Tyson. It takes real heart to wake up at 58 years old, as a millionaire, and find it in you to train for a fight. He may never be what he was, but that warrior spirit never leaves you. Only casual fans can be disappointed with what they saw. What did they expect a 58 year old man to do? As for Jake Paul, he cracked the boxing matrix - getting rich with no risk and no CTE. Netflix got 250m streams of fight that was pantomime, at best. Everyone is a winner.

The hosts also review the controversies surrounding gender identity in sports, specifically focusing on a boxer with suspected differences in sexual development (DSD).

This season on my podcast, Baring It All with Call Me Adam, I am highlighting My Entertainment Idols.Today, I am going back in time and Behind-The-Curtain to bring you this blast from the past, my 2013 interview with Nicki French, award-winning international recording artist, known for her smash hit dance version of Bonnie Tyler's "Total Eclipse of the Heart."In this interview, Nicki is Baring It All with Call Me Adam about:How she handles her success What she loves about musical theatreHow she decides what songs to recordWhat she loves about the creative process in putting an album togetherSo much moreSpecial Thanks:Theme Song by Bobby CroninPodcast Logo by Liam O'DonnellEdited by Adam RothenbergUnderscore Music by CutiqueConnect with Me:Website: www.callmeadam.comFacebook: @CallMeAdamNYCInstagram: @CallMeAdamNYCMore on Nicki French:Nicki was born in Carlisle, Cumbria to Mum Eileen and Dad Joe. Music was destined to be in the family – dad played the drums when he was younger, and mum the violin. Nicki's brother, Tim, is very musical too – a guitarist and singer who is a fabulous song-writer. However, her two sisters, Allison and Carolyn, stayed away from music – probably plenty to listen to already in the household!The family moved down to Tenterden in Kent when Nicki was four years old. Always a keen singer, one of her early memories was sitting next to the radio, listening to the new chart rundown and singing along to all the songs, when Auntie Sally, her Godmother, came in and said to mum and dad, "She'll be a singer when she grows up!"The first ‘gig' came at the age of seven, when Nicki was chosen to sing a solo - the first verse of "O Little Town of Bethlehem" at the Infants' School Christmas Concert! From then on there was no turning back! A few years later she won the local talent contest, and within the year had joined her first band, Krisp, run by Tim and his friend Kelvin. They worked the most salubrious places – working mens' clubs and holiday camps – wooh!From the age of 16, Nicki studied Music and Drama at West Kent College in Tonbridge, Kent, passing her ‘A' Levels two years later. At the annual college musical, she played the lead role of Laurey in Oklahoma!, earning rave reviews for her performance. She then moved up to London and started auditioning for bands and theatre shows. Not many know that Nicki actually was part of a duo in the early 1980s – name of Whisky and Sofa! They released a song called "Dirty Den," about the Eastenders character! It was played on the Radio One Breakfast Show and that was about it! Amazing though, it was written by an extremely well-known writer, Barry Mason. He wrote "The Last Waltz" for Engelbert Humperdinck and "Delilah" for Tom Jones. Credibility sadly was NOT in existence on "Dirty Den."Nicki started working the pubs and clubs, moving onto gay pubs and clubs a short while later – The Spread Eagle in Shoreditch was her first! However the most exciting show for Nicki was at the Player of the Season annual dinner/dance at Tottenham Hotspur FC – her team! They had just signed a new player and were introducing him to the fans – a player by the name of Paul Gascoigne, and Gazza and all the other players got up on stage with her to perform a couple of songs – a special moment. Nicki had been working on the gay scene for some time, when she made one of her regular visits to perform in a club in...

How ticked Maria Lovelady & Michael Alan-Bailey are to talk about one of the most world renowned names in variety history Sir Ken Dodd from the woman who knew him best, his wife Lady Anne Dodd. But Lady Anne wasn't just Sir Ken's wife, a performer in her own right she was also his co-star, tour manager, stage manager, driver, wardrobe mistress, props mistress and now the proud ambassador of Sir Ken's comedy legacy. Documented and detailed in a brand new, self produced documentary film ‘The Real Ken Dodd: The Man I Loved' Lady Anne talks about the inception of the film and plans for a ‘Giggle Tour' around select UK theatres.We discuss many tattyfalarious topics from Sir Ken's dabble in Shakespeare to his backstage rituals and the passion that fuelled his crusade to save many UK theatres that seemed destined for closure. We also talk about Lady Anne's start in show business, some wild and spooky backstage encounters to her vocation, mission and future plans to continue the legacy of a world renowned genius.

[originally published on Patreon February 23, 2024] In this episode I discuss Colombia's relationship to United Fruit Company aka El Pulpo. In particular, I open with the massive strikes against UFC in 1928 culminating in the massacre at Ciénaga which was so memorably fictionalized in Gabriel García Márquez's Cien años de soledad.  From there, I discuss the curious case of Jorge Eliécer Gaitán and his assassination in 1948 which triggered El Bogotazo, a wave of civil unrest and violence that would affect Colombia for years to come. I discuss the Rosicrucian-brainwashed patsy shooter Juan Roa Sierra and his manipulation by a German astrologer spy named Johann Umland Gerät.  It gets even weirder as a track down claims by a Sicilian-American WWII vet named John Meeples Espirito who appears to have been involved in Operation ARTICHOKE and who found his way to revolutionary Cuba. When arrested, he told Cuban intelligence of his role in the assassination of Gaitán - claims which Cuban intelligence could never definitively prove and so did not widely publish.  The potential reason for that, according to some, was because of Fidel Castro's role and actions in El Bogotazo, which remains obscured, as through a glass darkly. Much remains unknown.

Bonus blurb. 16 Songs of 1966: No.17: Pantomime Everywhere It's ChristmasIn 1966 there was a 17th song - the only thing heard from the Beatles between Revolver and Strawberry Fields Forever. For their annual Christmas fan club disc instead of the usual thank yous, they produced a collection of music and sketches. Like Revolver and Strawberry Fields, it showed where they'd been, and where they were going.  Live on tape from Dublin & Belfast, it's Nothing Is Real. Website: http://www.nothingisrealpod.comTwitter: @BeatlesPodFacebook Group: http://tiny.cc/NIRFBGYouTube: http://tiny.cc/NIRYT Support: http://tiny.cc/NIRsupportSupport this show http://supporter.acast.com/nothing-is-real-a-beatles-podcast.

On episode 50, Charles is rudely prevented from staging his radio play by the Ghost of Luther Abel. After that, he talks to Rafael A. Mangual about crime. (Here's his book.) Among the questions they discuss are why Rafael believes that the U.S. has a "decarceration problem"; whether too many Americans are in jail; whether the justice system is "racialized"; what we should do about police brutality; whether voters will punish politicians who make them less safe; and what law-and-order policymakers got wrong in the 1990s.The dial-up tone in the introduction was recorded by lintphishx and is used under a CC 3.0 License.

Have you ever wondered how and where our Christmas tradition of pantomime originated? In this edition of Not Just the Tudors, Professor Suzannah Lipscomb finds out from Dr. Oliver Crick, who traces pantomime's origins to Commedia dell'arte - Italian travelling players who adapted their performances to other cultures and senses of humour. This episode was edited by Joseph Knight and produced by Rob Weinberg.Discover the past with exclusive history documentaries and ad-free podcasts presented by world-renowned historians from History Hit.
