In PRETTY FACES, The "other girl next door" finds fame and glamour at a beauty pageant for plus-sized women in this backstage musical that takes place on and off stage at the fictitious Miss Global Glamour Beauty Pageant." There is a strong sense of camaraderie and healthy competition as the contestants share the wonder and novelty of being "Glamour Girls" for the first time in their lives. The audience is the Antagonist They watch and follow each contestant's Cinderella trans-formation, from day one of rehearsals to the crowning moment of truth. Complete with two feuding stars, a love-struck stage manager, a baton-twirling Southern belle, and a spoiled rich girl. The result is a wickedly funny, yet strikingly poignant work. WHAT THE CRITICS SAY ABOUT PRETTY FACES an involving plotline, and an infectious score. It appears to be poised to become a theatrical staple on the regional circuit, la "Nunsense." Elias Stimac - BACKSTAGE "It's an oddball premise, a show about a 'Global Glamour Girl' beauty pageant in Paris, Ohio, for your ladies of, shall we say, girth ... You might think of "Pretty Faces" as a Size XXL 'Chorus Line.' " Jerry Tallmer - NY POST "Pretty Faces Is A Pretty Show" . . . Robert W. Cabell is both the author and composer. His music is snappy, familiar, and the lyrics are clever. Outstanding is the "Don't Talk Dirty". . . The girls sing Soliloquies throughout entitled "42-32-42" and the melody goes with you after the curtain goes down. Adele Furman - QUEENS CHRONICLE "The Subject matter is dealt with a direct and appealing forthright way. . . novel entertainment, maybe even a "Nunsense" waiting to be born. Bill O'Connell - APPLAUSE MAGAZINE 'Pretty Faces' provides considerable entertainment. . . Cabell's book is efficiently crafted, with enough laughs and human-interest details to keep the story perking. Michael Sander - LA, DRAMA-LOQUE "This spunky mini-musical is to be commended for avoiding the path of obvious fat jokes in the beauty pageant for "the large and lovely". . . there is a nourishing amount of good songs and commentaries for the calorie conscious as well." Stuart Wise - NEW YORK LAW JOURNAL "From the lyrical fantasy 'Furs, Fortune, Fame Glamour' to the randy girl talk of 'How Do You Like Your Men' and the tongue-in-cheek 'Twirling for Jesus" spirits run high and the stage rocks with generously endowed talent. Glenda Frank - CHELSEA CLINTON NEWS "Whatever their story, one really feels for these ... Move over, Miss America, here come the women of the Miss Global Glamour Girl Beauty Pageant." Moses Schonfeld - WRTN FM WVOX AM "Cabell keeps the tunes short 'n'bouncy, winning us over with the amusing "Too Plump For Prom Night," the recurring "Sleep Walkers' Lament," and Bobby Joy's star spangled, baton twirling, song "Twirling For Jesus". David Lefkowitz - SHOW BUSINESS, NY "The songs are effectively integrated to advance the plot and where that isn't possible, are artfully included as a talent competition entry. And what songs they are " Bob Harrington - BISTRO BITS - BACKSTAGE Pretty Faces the "Large & Lovely" Musical expands the boundary of what is beautiful ... The show boasts 26 new songs, great singing, awesome harmony Ned Sontag - DEMENSIONS MAGAZINE

Robert W. Tebbs, Photographer to Architects

Robert W. Tebbs, Photographer to Architects

Richard Anthony Lewis; Robert J. Cangelosi Jr

Louisiana State University Press
2011

One of the finest architectural photographers in America, Robert W. Tebbs produced the first photographic survey of Louisiana's plantations in 1926. From those images, now housed in the Louisiana State Museum, and not widely available until now, 119 plates showcasing fifty-two homes are featured here. Richard Anthony Lewis explores Tebbs's life and career, situating his work along the line of plantation imagery from nineteenth-century woodcuts and paintings to later twentieth-century photographs by John Clarence Laughlin, among others. Providing the family lineage and construction history of each home, Lewis discusses photographic techniques Tebbs used in his alternating panoramic and detail views. A precise documentarian, Tebbs also reveals a poetic sensibility in the plantation photos. His frequent emphasis on aspects of decay, neglect, incompleteness, and loss lends a wistful aura to many of the images -- an effect compounded by the fact that many of the homes no longer exist. This noticeable vacillation between objectivity and sentiment, Lewis shows, suggests unfamiliarity and even discomfort with the legacy of slavery. Poised on the brink of social and political reforms, Louisiana in the mid-1920s had made significant strides away from the slave-based agricultural economy that the plantation house often symbolized. Tebbs's Louisiana plantation photographs capture a literal and cultural past, reflecting a burgeoning national awareness of historic preservation and presenting plantations to us anew. Select plantations included: Ashland/Belle Helene, Avery Island, Belle Chasse, Belmont, Butler-Greenwood, L'Hermitage, Oak Alley, Parlange, René Beauregard House, Rosedown, Seven Oaks, Shadows-on-the-Teche, The Shades, and Waverly.

Robert W. Chambers: Maker of Moons: Author of The King in Yellow Unmasked traces the history of the author of The King in Yellow, the book that influenced H.P. Lovecraft and the Cthulhu Mythos. Chambers was a top selling author in the early 20th century writing nearly 90 books, but has been largely forgotten except by the readers of horror fiction, particularly fans of the Cthulhu Mythos. This is the first full biography of Chambers, researched over nearly four decades by Shawn M. Tomlinson who grew up in the small town where Chambers summered. Tomlinson wrote many articles about Chambers previous to this book, primarily for area newspapers, as well as for several magazines including Adirondack Life and Ride of the Horsemen. His chapbook about Chambers, first published in 1996, went to three editions. Robert W. Chambers: Maker of Moons: Author of The King in Yellow Unmasked includes portraits of Chambers, interior and exterior photos of his summer home (Broadalbin House) and a full bibliography.
