Dreamcast: Future Shows (Boleyn Tour)

A few years back I’d made a post of the shows I’d most like to see each of the Broadway alts join when they left Six. I’ve made one for just about every cast since, and this time it’s the Boleyn Tour cast’s turn!! (And keep an eye out for a special edition of this in a few days…). So without further ado….

Gerianne Pérez: On Your Feet! as Gloria Estefan

Zan Berube: Mamma Mia! as Sophie Sheridan

Amina Faye: Hamilton as standby Schuyler sisters

Terica Marie: The Wiz as Evillene

Aline Mayagoitia: Moulin Rouge! as Arabia, understudy Satine

Sydney Parra: Jesus Christ Superstar as Mary Magdalene

Cecilia Snow: Shucked as Storyteller 1

Taylor Pearlstein: Hadestown as swing, understudy Eurydice/Fates

Jana Larell Glover: MJ as swing, understudy Kate/Katherine Jackson

Per usual, I only included actors who are imminently leaving the show. Since Adriana Scalice, Kelly Denice Taylor, and Aryn Bohannon are continuing, I didn’t include them in this post. The exception this time was Jana Larell Glover, purely because I’d been really wanting to include MJ for her prior to her being announced for Broadway.

The Women's Prize for Non-Fiction 2024 Longlist is here!

I'm sure that long time readers of my blog or followers of my Instagram will know that I have been following the Women's Prize for Fiction very closely for the last few years. I was really excited to discover that they were launching a sister prize celebrating non-fiction written by women (because it definitely tends to get lost in the very male-dominant sphere that is non-fiction). I am not a big non-fiction reader but as I get older, I have found myself becoming more interested in it. I think I'll always be a much bigger fiction reader but there are some genres within non-fiction that I am fascinated by, so it made sense for me to take a look at what the inaugural Women's Prize for Non-Fiction longlist had to offer.

The Women's Prize for Non-Fiction is open to non-fiction books written by women in English and published between 1st April 2023 and 31st March 2024. I believe it follows the same rules as the Fiction prize, in that books have to follow a narrative and that translated books are not eligible.

So, here are the 16 books on the first ever Women's Prize for Non-Fiction longlist!

Intervals by Marianne Brooker. Published by Fitzcarraldo Editions on 28th February 2024.

Thunderclap by Laura Cumming. Published by Chatto & Windus on 6th July 2023.

Shadows at Noon by Joya Chatterji. Published by Bodley Head on 13th July 2023.

Wifedom: Mrs Orwell's Invisible Life by Anna Funder. Published by Viking on 17th August 2023.

Matrescence by Lucy Jones. Published by Allen Lane on 22nd June 2023.

How To Say Babylon by Safiya Sinclair. Published by 4th Estate on 3rd October 2023.

Some People Need Killing by Patricia Evangelista. Published by Grove Press on 2nd November 2023.

Code Dependent: Living in the Shadow of AI by Madhumita Murgia. Published by Picador on 28th March 2024.

Eve: How the Female Body Drove 200 Million Years of Human Evolution by Cat Bohannon. Published by Hutchinson Heinemann on 12th October 2023.

The Britannias: An Island Quest by Alice Albinia. Published by Allen Lane on 19th October 2023.

All That She Carried: The Journey of Ashley's Sack, A Black Family Keepsake by Tiya Miles. Published by Profile Books on 13th July 2023.

The Dictionary People: The Unsung Heroes Who Created the Oxford English Dictionary by Sarah Ogilvie. Published by Chatto & Windus on 7th September 2023.

Doppelganger: A Trip Into the Mirror World by Naomi Klein. Published by Allen Lane on 12th September 2023.

Vulture Capitalism: Corporate Crimes, Backdoor Bailouts and the Death of Freedom by Grace Blakeley. Published by Bloomsbury on 14th March 2024.

A Flat Place by Noreen Masud. Published by Hamish Hamilton on 27th April 2023.

Young Queens: Three Renaissance Women and the Price of Power by Leah Redmond Chang. Published by Bloomsbury on 11th May 2023.

So, there's the longlist. There is a good mixture in terms of theme and I'm sure a lot of people will be excited about that. I'm afraid that for me, I'm really not very interested in many of them. I have copies of Eve and Some People Need Killing, so I'll be reading them. I am also interested in Doppelganger and Wifedom but they're both very expensive in all formats at the moment, so I'll see if I can get library copies. However, almost all of the others just aren't speaking to me!

The shortlist will be announced on 27th March and the winner will be announced on 13th June, which is the same date as the winner of the Fiction Prize. So, I imagine the award ceremony will be a very big celebration of women's writing, which is always an exciting event.

What do you think of the longlist? Will you be reading any? Have you read any? Should I pick up any that I don't think I'm interested in? Let me know!

Hamilton Frederick Bohannon (March 7, 1942 – April 24, 2020), often credited and known professionally simply as Bohannon, was a percussionist, bandleader, songwriter, and record producer, who was one of the leading figures in 1970s disco music.

He began playing in local bands, one of which featured guitarist Jimi Hendrix, before graduating from Clark College with a BS in music and secondary education. After a brief period as a schoolteacher, he was recruited as a drummer in Stevie Wonder’s touring band. He moved to Detroit and was employed by Motown as the leader and arranger of Bohannon & The Motown Sound, who provided backing for many of the label’s top acts on tour, including Stevie Wonder, Smokey Robinson, Marvin Gaye, The Temptations, Diana Ross, and the Supremes, The Four Tops and others.

He formed an ensemble, featuring members of the local band, The Fabulous Counts, including such musicians as Ray Parker Jr. and Dennis Coffey. He signed with the Dakar label and released his debut album Stop & Go. This was followed by five more albums for the label over the next two years, on which he “perfected his formula of heavy, thudding bass accents and aggressive rhythms”. Although several of his tracks were club hits, he had limited chart success. His first hit single was “South African Man”, which reached #78 on the Billboard R&B chart, but had more success in the UK, where it reached #22 on the UK Singles Chart. This was followed by “Foot Stompin Music” - his only record to reach the US Billboard Hot 100 - and “Disco Stomp”, his biggest hit in the UK where it reached #6.

Much of his music has been widely sampled. Other musicians who have used samples of his music include Jay Z, Digable Planets, and Snoop Dogg. His name was repeatedly invoked in the Tom Tom Club song “Genius of Love.” His composition “Ooh!” was included in Mary J. Blige’s album Love & Life.
