About the Bucketworks Members’ Site

This site is being developed for Bucketworks Members, to use to communicate to the world and among themselves.

Your own “mini-site”

One of the benefits of Bucketworks membership is your own space on this site. Your space here would be in the form of a “page-group” or “mini-site”, with the group of pages having its own Home Page, Side Bar, and optionally Site Header and Group Header.

There are just a few restrictions on how you can use your space here. First is that you can not (or hardly ever, anyhow) read-restrict your pages - anyone can see the material you add here. One corollary to this is that we’ll need to reserve the right to veto content that’s intolerably intolerant or filthy. How we’ll define that will probably have to be worked out over time, like a lot of what we’re doing with the site; with luck, it won’t ever be an issue.

You can password-protect your pages from being edited by other members, however. We will write-protect your page-group with the password you choose.

Communicate

You can also post your news, events, suggestions, requests and ideas here.

Hey! Movies! Leave Them Plays Alone!
"As movie adaptations of stage plays go, the recently released 'Frost/Nixon' and 'Doubt' are among the best of recent vintage, not least because the writers of the sourcing play also penned the screen versions. ... But 'Frost/Nixon' and 'Doubt' are also, in very different ways, revelatory examples of how certain themes, emotions and truths simply cannot be fully and effectively transferred from stage to screen." Chicago Tribune 01/04/09
Mrs. Bush Went To Washington (How Big Is Her Advance?)
"Laura Bush has sold a memoir of her eight years in the White House, allowing the battered book industry the light relief of speculating on the size of the advance paid to a high-profile author." In the first lady's favor: "the success of American Wife, a fictional account of Mrs Bush's life by novelist Curtis Sittenfeld, indicated strong interest in the first lady that could justify a high fee." Financial Times 01/05/09
Arts Deals For Maryland's Furloughed State Workers
"Maryland Citizens for the Arts, an advocacy group that has been active for more than 25 years, announced that several organizations have joined an effort to support the 67,000 state employees who are facing furloughs as part of a budget-balancing move. The employees will be able to obtain various deals, including free or discounted tickets...." Baltimore Sun 01/05/09
It's An Online Novel -- But Must They Call It A Wovel?
"The way we read is changing. Time once spent curled up with a good book is now often devoted to catching up on blogs, and browsing Web sites. One publishing company is trying to take advantage of those habits, offering fiction in serial form, online." NPR 01/05/09
Luckily, It's Not Like LA's A Big Driving Town
"If you want to catch a weekend show in North Hollywood's thriving theater district, better be prepared to step out of the performance once or twice -- the city of Los Angeles wants you to move your car." Los Angeles Times 01/05/09
In Libeskind's Jagged Tower Design, Echoes Of Sept. 11
"Daniel Libeskind has proposed a tower next to Manhattan's Madison Square with huge multifloor gashes hacked out of its tubular form. Were it to be built, it would be a crude and unavoidable reminder of the horrors of 9/11. Is it Daniel's revenge?" Bloomberg 01/05/09
With Harvey Back For Final Bow, Hairspray Stops The Beat
"The first Sunday of 2009 saw the closing of nine Broadway shows. It's a safe bet that no performance was more raucous than the 'Hairspray' finale after 6 1/2 years at the Neil Simon Theatre." Bloomberg 01/05/09
Lamos, Ross To Lead Westport Country Playhouse
"Mark Lamos is back leading a Connecticut theater, this time in Westport. The 62-year-old Lamos, who built Hartford Stage into a Tony Award-winning, internationally known theater from 1980 to 1997, is the new artistic director of the Westport Country Playhouse starting Feb. 1." Longtime Lamos colleague Michael Ross, formerly of Baltimore's Center Stage and New Haven's Long Wharf Theatre, will be managing director. Hartford Courant 01/05/09
