As a marketing philosophy by the grand opera in 2014, innovation and adoption of technologies were vital to remain relevant in a changing industry since works from 17th dominated opera through the 21st century. A second key point is the hiring of Karina Kacala, who joined Opera Philadelphia in 2014 to guide the firm in market segmentation targeting young professionals and middle-income segments while utilizing single ticket promotions as the marketing strategy. Adoption of technology and modern performances was critical to change market tastes and preferences from the reliance on 17th through 21st-century performances.

Intercultural theatre Intercultural theatre, also referred to as a cross-cultural theatre, is a way of mixing different cultures and subcultures that primarily match. Naomi Iizuka’s “36 Views” is an example of a correctly done intercultural theatre. Based on a story of an art dealer whose antiquities are of Asian origin, the story blends the Western dramatic forms to bring up a beautiful story. The film borrows its name from the artist’s study of Mt. Fuji and the metaphoric nature of the story of having 36 scenes. Kabuki theatre is famous for its style in drama and the Kumadori that is used by actors and performers in this theatre. On the other hand, in the western theatre, different forms are used to describe films. Iizuka’s combination of the Japanese Kabuki and the theatre of the west forms brings a new taste into the play. This paper discusses how well Iizuka creates an intercultural theatre using these two distinct theatres and also analyzes the effects of using this style in art. In the western theatre, this play is considered to be of…

HOW TO SAY NOTHING IN FIVE HUNDRED WORDS Paul McHenry Roberts (1917-1967) taught college English for over twenty years, first at San Jose State College and later at Cornell University. He wrote numerous books on linguistics, including Understanding Grammar (1954), Patterns of English (1956), and Understanding English (1958). Freshman composition, like everything else, has its share of fashions. In the 1950s, when this article was written, the most popular argument raging among student essayists was the proposed abolition of college football. With the greater social consciousness of the early ’60s, the topic of the day became the morality of capital punishment. Topics may change, but the core principles of good writing remain constant, and this essay has become something of a minor classic in explaining them. Be concrete, says Roberts; get to the point; express your opinions colorfully. Refreshingly, he even practices what he preaches. His essay is humorous, direct, and almost salty in summarizing the working habits that all good prose writers must cultivate. — Editors’ note from JoRay McCuen & Anthony C. Winkler’s Readings for Writers , 3rd…
