I remember her teaching me how to warm up my body before dancing, so I won’t hurt myself. My aunt also taught me how to become a choreographer…

Commedia Dell'Arte, also known as comedy of artists is an Italian theatrical form that flourished throughout Europe from the 16th through the 18th century (Katritzky). Each commedia dell’arte company had a stock of scenarios and soliloquies, witty exchanges such as their lazzi, and about a dozen actors.

If you want to compliment Leo Wieser, tell him his work makes you gag. "Thank you!" he gushes when I mention my queasy stomach. "That's what makes a good career." Wieser, the special effects supervisor for Wynonna Earp, and I are discussing the full-body autopsy scene in last week's episode, "Two-Faced Jack," and I'm apparently not the only one who had a guttural reaction to the sequence. "On set, nothing is better than if you can make the crew go, "Bleh!" he laughs. "For the second time in my…

Instead, they usually imagine a whale inside a compact glass tank or performing in front of a huge crowd of people who are on vacation. Killer and Orca whales have been found in captivity since the early nineteen sixties and are still found in captivity to this day.

Unfortunately, some companies have mismanaged their greatest asset—their brands. This is what befell the popular Snapple brand almost as soon as Quaker Oats bought the beverage marketer for $1.7 billion in 1994.
