The document discusses lighting design considerations for a play called "Wintertime" set in a snowy winter cabin scene. It recommends using halogen yellow lights inside the cabin to bring warmth against the cold winter outside.

To convey the mood of anger and jealousy in the play, the lighting should use a green color, as red would be too overtly angry. Finally, the lighting should reflect the late December time setting with bright, quiet, dark, foreboding, depressing and cheerless gloomy winter tones.

In this musical performance, Massimo Ceccarelli performs both double bass and reciting vocals. He slips seamlessly between the roles of musician and actor. It is a challenging experiment as both the music and speech demand skill, but are performed by a single person simultaneously on stage. The performance balances the musical and dramatic elements. It consists of two acts - the first explores the concept of stopping time through a wandering bass line and spoken word, and the second retells a Hemingway story from the perspective of a fish in the sea, represented through atmospheric bass sounds. The piece has been well received by both academic and jazz audiences.

Yates concludes that he will find respite from the "roadway" and "pavements grey"

14. The Suite bergamasque was first composed by Debussy around 1890, and included a
selection originally titled "Promenade Sentimentale“, it is now known as “Clair de Lune”
after a poem by Paul Verlaine's.
Your soul is a chosen landscape
Where charming masqueraders and
bergamaskers
go
Playing the lute and dancing and almost
Sad beneath their fanciful disguises.
All sing in a minor key
Of victorious love and the opportune life,
They do not seem to believe in their happiness
And their song mingles with the moonlight,
With the still moonlight, sad and beautiful,
That sets the birds dreaming in the trees
And the fountains sobbing in ecstasy,
The tall slender fountains among marble
statues.
(from the town of Bergamo in Northern Italy)
A dance associated with clowns or
buffoonery,
