I chat with Trevor Boffone, a social media content creator and author, about his new book - TikTok Broadway: Musical Theater Fandom in the Digital Age.

Notes and time-codes by Hetty Blades: If you would like access to the audio described version of 'As Within So Without' please contact Hetty Blades: hetty.blades@coventry.ac.uk (03:10) Moving Online is funded by the Arts and Humanities Research Council [grant number AH/W01002X/1]. https://movingonline.coventry.domains/The partners are One Dance UK https://www.onedanceuk.org/ and Sadler's Wells https://www.sadlerswells.com/ (05:37) These kinds of questions are explored in a branch of philosophy called ‘ontology'. There has been a lot written about dance ontology. For example, Anna Pakes's book Choreography Invisible (2020). https://global.oup.com/academic/product/choreography-invisible-9780199988228?lang=en&cc=us This page includes a blog by Hetty Blades (in 3 parts) that explores the overlap between ontology and ownership and includes references to more texts in both areas: https://movingonline.coventry.domains/outputs-3/ (06:27) For more about the Centre for Dance Research (C-DaRE) at Coventry University, please see here:https://www.coventry.ac.uk/research/areas-of-research/centre-for-dance-research/ (15:00) For more information about some of the existing work in the areas of dance and copyright, the circulation of dance through social norms and the overlap of copyright and philosophy, please see ‘ontology and ownership' (in 3 parts) on this page: https://movingonline.coventry.domains/outputs-3/ and the reference list: https://movingonline.coventry.domains/references/ (15:20) See Bench (2020) and Boffone (2021) re the role of credit within dance communities. Bench: https://dhjhkxawhe8q4.cloudfront.net/minup-wp/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/16153547/Bench_9781452962481.pdf Boffone: https://global.oup.com/academic/product/renegades-9780197577684?cc=us&lang=en& (23:19) This blog post includes reference to some of the writing that explores the implications of the distinction in US copyright law between ‘choreographic works' and ‘social dances and simple routes': https://movingonline.coventry.domains/ontology-and-ownership-part-three/ (23:57) The nature of ‘dance works' is explored by Pakes in Choreography Invisible (2020): https://academic.oup.com/book/36935 (24:33) Rather than ‘repeatable', the work needs to be “capable of being performed” (Whatley, Waelde, Brown and Harmon, 2015: 70, ‘Validation and virtuosity: Perspectives on difference and authorship/control in dance.') : https://intellectdiscover.com/content/journals/10.1386/chor.6.1.59_1 (26:44) Writing in 2015, Whatley, Waelde, Brown and Harmon point out that since 1911 there have been three cases in the UK “where dance has been judicially considered” (Whatley, Waelde, Brown and Harmon, 2015: 70, ‘Validation and virtuosity: Perspectives on difference and authorship/control in dance.'): https://intellectdiscover.com/content/journals/10.1386/chor.6.1.59_1 (30:48) Thank you to Julie C. Van Camp whose work on dance, copyright and philosophy has been very important and who made a similar point about prohibitive costs and limited case law during a Q and A at the American Society of Aesthetics Eastern meeting in 2024 (31:14) For more on the possible commercial benefits of copyright exploitation, see Pavis, Waelde and Whatley (2017) ‘Who can profit from dance?: An exploration of copyright ownership': https://www.euppublishing.com/doi/10.3366/drs.2017.0185 (53:55) Harmony Bench's book Perpetual Motion (2020) is available here: https://dhjhkxawhe8q4.cloudfront.net/minup-wp/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/16153547/Bench_9781452962481.pdf Trevor Boffone's Renegades (2021) also discusses the issues that can arise when dance moves from one community into another context: https://global.oup.com/academic/product/renegades-9780197577684?cc=us&lang=en& (01:16:00) You can find more about Charlotte Waelde's work here: https://pureportal.coventry.ac.uk/en/persons/charlotte-waelde/publications/ The Space's Digital Rights Toolkit is a helpful resource regarding rights when sharing online: https://www.thespace.org/resource/the-spaces-digital-rights-toolkit/ #brookemilliner #aswithinsowithout #hettyblades #dance #copyright #podcast #coventryuniversity #lukelentes #thecapsule #thecapsuleldn

Today's episode is the second half of my conversation with Trevor Boffone regarding his fascinating new book: TikTok Broadway — Musical Theatre Fandom in the Digital Age. If you missed part one of our discussion, you may want to catch up with that before listening to this one. Trevor Boffone is a Houston-based content creator and social media manager. His previous books include Renegades: Digital Dance Cultures from Dubsmash to TikTok and Latinx Teens: US Popular Culture on the Page, Stage, and Screen. He is also the editor of TikTok Cultures in the United States and the co-editor of five collections on Latinx popular culture and performance. Today, Trevor and I explore several massively popular viral TikTok trends relating the Broadway and West End musicals SIX, Heathers, Wicked, and Mamma Mia! And he also shares with us his observations of the many ways that TikTok has become a performance space of its own for fans of Broadway musicals. We also delve into the phenomenon of musicals that have been created on TikTok such as Ratatouille — The Musical and Bridgerton — The Musical. This all brings up some big questions relating to the very nature of theater itself, and of course, the future of TikTok. Become a PATRON of Broadway Nation!

My guest this week is Trevor Boffone whose new book is titled TikTok Broadway — Musical Theatre Fandom in the Digital Age. I suspect that many of you, like me, are not on TikTok and may not immediately think this book will be of great interest to you. However, I encourage you to give it a listen because I think you will find what Boffone has to say in his book and in this discussion to be a fascinating and important aspect of recent Broadway history. I was quite captivated by it. On this episode, we look at the history of Social Media and its relationships with the Broadway musical and how from the very beginning of TikTok in America, Broadway musicals became a key aspect of even it most mainstream content. Trevor Boffone is a Houston-based content creator and social media manager. He is the author of Renegades: Digital Dance Cultures from Dubsmash to TikTok and the co-author of Latinx Teens: US Popular Culture on the Page, Stage, and Screen.

Hi this is David Armstrong. You may be wondering where I and Broadway Nation have been over the past few weeks. As you will hear, I have been battling a wicked case of bronchitis and today is the first day in ten days that I have been able to talk even enough to croak out this brief message. At the end of the summer, I had been planning to take a few weeks off from podcasting anyway, and this bronchitis has just jumpstarted that break. So here's the plan: On September 19 Broadway Nation will return for an exciting new season featuring a fascinating line-up of authors who have written some amazing new books. We will start with author Thomas Hischak who will kick us off with a discussion of Song Of The Season — Outstanding Broadway Songs since 1891. In the weeks that follow, you will meet Laurie Winer talking about Oscar Hammerstein and the Invention of The Musical, Doug Reside on his book Fixing the Musical — How Technologies Shaped The Broadway Repertory, Trevor Boffone who has written about TikTok Broadway. Dustyn Martincich and Pheobe Rumsay will discuss Dance In Musical Theatre — A History of the Body In Movement, Christopher Connelly on Helen Morgan: The original Torch Singer and Ziegfeld's Last Star, and Joshua Rosenblum and his book Closer Than Ever — The Unique Six-Decade Songwriting Partnership of Richard Maltby, Jr. and David Shire. And that's just the beginning! As always Albert Evans will join me for some deep dives into Broadway's past and, no doubt, there will be previews of my upcoming book. I guarantee it will all be worth the wait. In the meantime, you are invited to join more than 2600 fans of this podcast in the Broadway Nation Facebook Group where every day you can find posts and videos about the Broadway musical and Immigrant, Jewish, Queer and Black artist who invented it.  See you soon!

In today's special bonus episode, we are joined by a panel of Shakespeare social media content creators in our first-ever panel episode to discuss the intersection between Shakespeare and social media. We discuss each guests' work; the different social media platforms; how and why we create Shakespeare content; the benefits of educating through memes; and what makes Shakespeare so dang memeable! Emily Jackoway is an actor, writer, and lifelong Shakespeare nerd. She earned her BFA in drama from New York University's Tisch School of the Arts, where she studied Shakespeare at the Classical Studio. She is a former contributing writer and social media manager for Shakespeare and literary education website NoSweatShakespeare, which strives to make Shakespeare accessible for audiences and students. She also hosted their podcast, “Scurvy Companions,” which discusses Shakespeare in all his facets with actors, writers, directors, scholars, stage combat professionals and more. Favorite past roles include Juliet, Puck, and Iago. Carson Brakke is a PhD candidate at the University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign, and is writing her dissertation on representations of hospitality in early modern English literature. In addition to hospitality, her research interests include domesticity, food studies, and women's writing. To break up the solitary work of dissertating, Carson uses her TikTok platform to talk about early modern literature and the PhD experience. You can find her @glutenbergbible, where she's always looking to chat with more people about research, academia, and the weird and surprising sides of early modern English literature! Micaela Mannix considers herself a jack of all Shakespeare. She is the artistic director of Bowls with the Bard, Denver's stoned Shakespeare company, and she hosts their podcast. Micaela is also an actor and content creator. You can find her making memes and working toward 10,000 hours of Shakespeare practice @10kshakespeare on TikTok and Instagram. Project: Bowls with the Bard is producing Stoned Cymbeline in Denver at the Coffee Joint February 22 - 25, 2024. Stephanie Crugnola has spent a very long time yelling about Shakespeare and how to start making it fun, accessible, responsible, and engaging for people who live in the 21st century. She has her MA in Early Modern English from King's College, London where she learned niche-ier words to yell with. Now, she hosts the Protest too Much podcast (@p2mpod): a Shakespeare showdown with a new guest each week and runs Walking Shadow Shakespeare Project (@wsshakes), a company focused on interactive educational performance opportunities and one-rehearsal pop-up productions. Her favorite Shakespeare play is Cymbeline because she thrives on chaos and being extra. Mia Escott is an Assistant Professor of English, Rhetoric, and Writing at Berry College. She joined the faculty in 2022 after receiving her doctoral degree in English from Louisiana State University. An Alabama native, she graduated from Auburn University and the University of Montevallo. Her research and teaching interests include early modern British Literature, Renaissance Drama, Shakespeare, Early Modern Race Studies, Critical Race Theory, and Women's and Gender Studies.

We also sing some showtunes! Trevor Boffone went viral in 2019 and hasn't looked back. His work using TikTok and Instagram with his students has been featured on Good Morning America, ABC News, Inside Edition, and Access Hollywood, among numerous national media platforms. His work as a social media expert has been featured in the New York Times, Washington Post, LA Times, Forbes, The Atlantic, and NPR. Trevor has published two books on social media and popular culture, and has two forthcoming books exploring theatre marketing on social media. Oh, and he does the Shakespeare thing, too. He is the co-editor of Shakespeare & Latinidad and is currently co-writing a book on Yassified Shakespeare.   Danielle Rosvally is less cool than Trevor, but hoping to someday attain his relative level of awesomeness. She is a fight director, actor, dramaturge, and direction and is an assistant professor of theatre at the University at Buffalo. Danielle is primarily a Shakespearean and has written one book on Shakespeare as an economic value, co-edited a collection about what “liveness” means in early modern theatre, and published articles about Shakespeare, labor, economies, and social media in journals such as Theatre Topics, the Early Modern Studies Journal, and Shakespeare Bulletin. She's currently co-editing a journal devoted to exploring issues of Shakespeare and Contingency, and co-writing a book about Yassified Shakespeare.   Shakespeare Anyone? is created and produced by Kourtney Smith and Elyse Sharp.

Trevor Boffone's book TikTok Cultures in the United States (Routledge, 2022) examines the role of TikTok in US popular culture, paying close attention to the app's growing body of subcultures. Featuring an array of scholars from varied disciplines and backgrounds, this book uses TikTok (sub)cultures as a point of departure from which to explore TikTok's role in US popular culture today. Engaging with the extensive and growing scholarship on TikTok from international scholars, chapters in this book create frameworks and blueprints from which to analyse TikTok within a distinctly US context, examining topics such as gender and sexuality, feminism, race and ethnicity and wellness. Shaping TikTok as an interdisciplinary field in and of itself, this insightful and timely volume will be of great interest to students and scholars of new and digital media, social media, popular culture, communication studies, sociology of media, dance, gender studies, and performance studies.

Cynthia Santos DeCure and Micha Espinosa both grew up speaking English and Spanish, and they share memories of being made to feel like their voices, dialects, and identities weren't “good enough” for Shakespeare. Now, both DeCure and Espinosa are vocal coaches and actors. They share an example of how an actor might embody their text, praise on the late great Raul Julia, and explain how important it is for actors to bring their 'voces culturales' to Shakespeare's words. Cynthia Santos DeCure is an Assistant Professor of Acting at the Yale School of Drama. She was most recently the dialect coach for El Huracán at Yale Rep, and she was the on-set dialect coach for Orange is the New Black on Netflix. Micha Espinosa is a Professor in the School of Film, Dance, and Theatre at Arizona State University. Most recently, she was the Voice and Text Director for the Oregon Shakespeare Festival's world premiere production of La Comedia of Errors, a bilingual adaptation of Shakespeare's original play from the Play on! translation by Christina Anderson. DeCure and Espinosa wrote about vocal coaching in chapters in Shakespeare and Latinidad, a collection of essays in the field of Latinx theater, edited by Carla Della Gatta and Trevor Boffone and published by Edinburgh University Press in June 2021.

Theater artists José Cruz González and David Lozano join us in this episode. Their conversation “On Making Shakespeare Relevant to Latinx Communities” appears in the new book Shakespeare and Latinidad. González and Lozano talk with Barbara Bogaev about adapting and translating Shakespeare, performing and directing it in ways that make it relevant to Latinx audiences, and whether the Bard has a place at theater companies working to carve out a space for Latinx voices. José Cruz González received the NEA Directing Fellowship in 1985 and the 2010 Kennedy Center National Teaching Artist Grant. His plays include American Mariachi, Sunsets & Margaritas, and The Astronaut Farmworker. He's also a professor of Theatre Arts at Cal State Los Angeles. David Lozano is Executive Artistic Director of Cara Mía Theatre in Dallas. In 2014, he was recognized by The Dallas Observer as one of six “Masterminds of Arts & Culture.” He co-wrote and directed Deferred Action and Crystal City 1969, which was named the “Best New Play of 2009” by The Dallas Morning News.

And we're back. Sarah, Brian, and Kareem discuss Trevor Boffone's book, Renegades: Digital Dance Cultures from Dubsmash to TikTok, teaching TAPS in the ongoing pandemic era, and the Netflix series, The Chair.

In this film Trevor Boffone and Carla Della Gatta tell us about their new book, Shakespeare and Latinidad, which they hope will be 'of value to anyone wanting to make culturally-relevant Shakespeare' productions. The book contains 25 essays by both theatre scholars and practitioners and celebrates the more than 130 Latinx productions of Shakespeare taking place since 1969. Trevor and Carla emphasise the importance of co-creation between art and knowledge, practitioners and scholars, and exploring new ways for theatres to create self-documentation and archiving practices. Both literature and theatre are made by 'living and breathing real people', they tell us, and they stress the need to ground ourselves in the orality, sound, noise and silences of creative work.

There's a Spanish teacher at Bellaire High School in southwest Houston who's using a unique method of connecting with his students inside the classroom. He's creating digital dance videos on TikTok and Dubsmash as his way of building stronger relationships with his students and developing an enhanced learning environment. His dance moves have earned him hundreds of thousands of social media followers and national media coverage. But is this new teaching strategy really working? Should parents of teens be concerned about digital addiction? And what about race or gender? Are there hidden biases embedded in TikTok algorithms? Join I SEE U for a special 'Back To School' episode as host Eddie Robinson chats unguardedly with author/teacher Dr. Trevor Boffone and one of his students, Rian, for a thought-provoking exchange that focuses on different learning tactics with today's generation.

  On Friday's Houston Matters: The city's health authority, Dr. David Persse, updates us on the COVID-19 situation. Over the last several weeks, as U.S. forces withdrew from Afghanistan and then as the Taliban seized control of the country, Interfaith Ministries for Greater Houston was busy resettling refugees from that nation here in the region. We learn more about that process and what some of them gave up. Also this hour: We discuss The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly of the week. And how Bellaire High School teacher Trevor Boffone used dance videos to help him connect with students – and went viral in the process. We preview his hour-long conversation on this weekend's edition of I See U with Eddie Robinson.
