Dock Street Theatre

A Dock Street Theatre az USA dél-karolinai kikötővárosa, Charleston francia negyedében álló színház. A mostani épület helyén nyílt meg 1736. február 12-én az eredeti Dock Street Theatre, ez az egykori épület volt az első Amerikában, melyet kifejezetten színházi előadás céljára emeltek. Története A jelenlegi épület viszont nem színház számára, hanem hotelnek épült 1809-ben, és csak jóval később, 1935-ben alakították át színházzá. A mai épület helyén állt egykor a történelmi Dock Street Theatre, a tizenhárom gyarmat első, eredetileg is színházi előadásra szánt épülete. Az eredeti színház 1736-os megnyitásakor az ír drámaíró, George Farquhar színművét, az akkor igen népszerű The Recruiting Officer-t (A sorozóbiztos) adták elő. Amerika első operaelőadása is itt volt, ekkor a Flora c. operát játszották a történelmi Dock Street Theatre-ben. Az eredeti épület 1740-ben, Charleston francia negyedében kitört tűz során elpusztult, ekkor majdnem az egész francia negyed leégett, majd 1809-ben a helyszínén húzták fel a jelenlegi épületet, a Planter's Hotelt. 1835-ben a szálloda homlokzatát kovácsoltvas erkéllyel és homokkő oszlopokkal egészítették ki. Számos neves személy dolgozott itt, vagy támogatta a szállodát, köztük a 19. század híres angol-amerikai színésze, Junius Brutus Booth. Fiatal korában Robert Smalls – későbbi kongresszusi tag – pincérként dolgozott a hotel éttermében, valamint a híres charlestoni puncsot is ebben a szállodában szolgálták fel először. 1935-ös felújítás Amikor a Planter's Hotel már felújíthatatlannak számított és el is akarták bontani, 1935-ben, a nagy gazdasági világválság alatt Milton Pearlstine átadta azt a városnak. Ekkor a város több jeles lakosának, ill. a Mayor Burnet Maybanknak a támogatásával a gazdasági válság alatti közmunka projektek keretén belül építették át a szállodát színházzá Douglas Ellington építész tervei alapján. A 18. századi londoni színházak mintájára alakították ki a színpadot és a nézőteret a hotel belső udvarának területén. A szálloda előcsarnoka a színház tágas előcsarnoka lett, étkezője pedig a pénztárak előcsarnokaként szolgál. A 350 000 dolláros felújítás után az új Dock Street Theatre megnyitója 1937. november 26-án volt, az ünnepélyes esemény neves személyiségei között megjelent többek közt DuBose Heyward, a Porgy c. regény írója is. Később, 2010-ben az épület újból felújításra szorult, ekkor annak költsége 19 millió dollár volt. A jelenleg Charleston város tulajdonában álló és általuk működtetett színház több kulturális rendezvény helyszíne is, köztük van az Egyesült Államok egyik jelentős előadóművészeti fesztiválja, a Spoleto Művészeti Fesztivál is. A Dock Street Theatre 1978-tól a Charleston Stage színtársulat állandó otthona, a társulat évente mintegy 120 előadást ad itt.

Dock Street Theatre

Dock Street Theatre är en teater i Charleston i South Carolina i USA. Den grundades år 1736 och var därmed den första teatern i USA, då den grundades före Southwark Theatre i Philadelphia (1766) och John Street Theatre i New York (1767), som annars ofta omtalas som de äldsta. Däremot är det oklart om teatern hade professionella skådespelare anställda: dess direktör Henry Holt hade enligt uppgift bildat ett teatersällskap av en grupp "studenter", och teatern var alltså troligen en amatörteater där manliga universitetsstudenter uppförde pjäser som en del av sin träning i retorik, något som var vanligt i Europa. Charleston tycks året före teaterns öppnande ha haft en livlig amatörteaterverksamhet, och 1734-1735 uppfördes pjäser av ett amatörteatersällskap under ledning av Henry Holt i en tillfällig lokal. Dock Street Theatre öppnade 12 februari 1736 med föreställningen The Recruiting Officer av George Farquhar. Det var den första byggnaden i Nordamerika som hade uppförts och byggts uteslutande för teaterverksamhet. Den första operaföreställningen i Nordamerika, Flora, uppfördes på Dock Street Theatre 1737. Det finns inga uppgifter om att teatern användes efter 1737, och den brann troligen ned år 1740. Under de följande åren uppfördes tillfälliga teatrar för Old American Company vistelser i Charleston: 'New Theatre' (1754-55), New Queen Street Theatre (1763-73) och Church Street Theatre (1773-82), men staden fick inte en permanent teater förrän med Charleston Theatre (1793-1833). År 1935 öppnades den nuvarande Dock Street Theatre i den byggnad som hade inhyst Planter's Hotel sedan 1809.

Don N. Holt Bridge

The Don N. Holt Bridge is a parallel chord, three-span continuous, modified Warren-type truss bridge that carries Interstate 526 (I-526) over the Cooper River between Charleston and North Charleston. It was built in 1992 by the South Carolina Department of Transportation and was designed by HNTB Corporation. The bridge provides a connection between the communities east of the Cooper River, including Mount Pleasant and Daniel Island, to North Charleston and I-26. It is part of a major hurricane evacuation route for the area. The Don Holt Bridge is adjacent to a Kapstone (formerly MeadWestvaco) paper mill. In the mid-1980s, prior to construction of the bridge, owners of the mill filed a lawsuit to stop the bridge because the bridge deck would be at the same height as smokestacks from the mill. In certain weather conditions, the smokestacks produce a fog which could blind drivers and place the mill at risk for lawsuits from drivers. The lawsuit was settled by mandating that a road weather information system (RWIS) be included in the bridge project. The RWIS was designed to detect reduced visibility on the bridge and "to inform drivers of dense fog conditions, reduce traffic speeds, and guide vehicles safely through the fog-prone area." The system uses variable-message signs and illuminating pavement lights (similar to a runway centerline lighting system). As of May 2003, there were no fog-related crashes. The bridge was named for Don N. Holt who served in the South Carolina House of Representatives and was in the insurance business.

Dubose Heyward House

The Dubose Heyward House is a historic house at 76 Church Street in Charleston, South Carolina. Now a wing of a larger house, this modest two-story structure was the home from 1919 to 1924 of author Dubose Heyward (1885–1940), author of Porgy, one of the first works to portray Southern African-Americans in a positive light. The house was declared a National Historic Landmark in 1971. Description and history The Heyward House is located in the Charleston Historic District, on the east side of Church Street south of Trade Street. It is a two-story structure, with a tile roof and stuccoed exterior. It is now attached as a wing to the house immediately to its left, a three-story building. The house is not architecturally distinguished, and has principally been modified since the period of Heyward's residence by the removal of intervening walls with the adjacent house to create enlarged dining and bedrooms. Dubose Heyward was born in 1885 into an aristocratic Charleston family, which fell upon hard times, leading him to engage in a number of low-wage jobs early in life. He was a significant early figure in the renaissance of Southern literature in the 1910s, helping found the Poetry Society of South Carolina in 1920. In 1925 he moved to North Carolina, where he wrote Porgy, his most significant claim to fame. It was unique at the time in present a southern African-American in a well-rounded and human light, and not as either a comic foil or propaganda piece. Porgy was the inspiration for George Gershwin's popular folk opera Porgy and Bess, cementing the character's place in American culture. Heyward lived in this house between about 1919 and 1924.

Duncan Park

Duncan Park is a stadium in Spartanburg, South Carolina. It is primarily used for baseball and is currently the home of the Spartanburg High School baseball team and the Spartanburg Post 28 American Legion Baseball (ALB) team. The ballpark has a capacity of 3,000 people and opened in 1926. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2016. History Duncan Park Stadium hosted its first game on July 8, 1926. 2,500 people watched as the Spartanburg Spartans defeated the Macon Peaches 5-1. Nearly 21,000 fans attended the deciding Game 5 of the 1936 "World Series" of American Legion baseball at Duncan Park when Spartanburg defeated Los Angeles. That figure remains the largest crowd to watch a sporting event in Spartanburg. Duncan Park also hosted the 1938 “World Series” of American Legion baseball. In 1937, the New York Yankees, featuring Joe DiMaggio and Lou Gehrig, played an exhibition game in Duncan Park on their way to New York from spring training. Other major league standouts played in Duncan Park on their way to the show, including Larry Bowa, Ryne Sandberg, Dale Murphy, and Tom Glavine. In addition, several Negro league baseball stars also visited Duncan Park on barnstorming tours, including Hank Aaron, Satchel Paige, Larry Doby, and Jackie Robinson. When Shibe Park in Philadelphia was demolished, Duncan Park received many seats from the old stadium. From 1996 to 2003, the park was home to the Wofford College Terriers college baseball team. In 2004, the Terriers moved to the newly built Russell C. King Field on campus. In 2008, Spartanburg city council decided to grant funding to replace the outfield wall and finalized an agreement with Spartanburg School District 7 to have the Spartanburg High School baseball team become a permanent tenant. From 2013 to 2014, Spartanburg School District 7 spent $500,000 on significant renovations to Duncan Park Stadium. These renovations were the first major improvements since the stadium was built and involved substantial structural work. In addition, drainage was improved, rotten wood was replaced, new box seats were installed, the stadium was repainted and a new scoreboard was erected. District 7 intends to do further renovations when funds become available, including seating under the roof, concession areas and permanent restroom facilities. A further $1.6 million in renovations were done in 2018-2019, including additional locker rooms, showers, and restrooms. In September 2020, Spartanburg City Council approved a lease agreement that brought the Spartanburgers of the Coastal Plain League to Duncan Park for the 2021 season. In March 2022, the Spartanburgers suspended operations. References External links Duncan Park Views - Ball Parks of the Minor Leagues

Edward Rutledge House

The Edward Rutledge House, is a historic house at 117 Broad Street in Charleston, South Carolina. This 18th-century house was built in 1760 for James Laurens, a Charleston merchant, who left in 1768 and moved to France. It was first rented to and later sold to Edward Rutledge, the home of Founding Father Edward Rutledge (1749–1800), a signer of the United States Declaration of Independence and later Governor of South Carolina. Despite many changes to the house, it retains its 18th-century core dating to about 1760, and was declared a National Historic Landmark in 1971. Description and history The Edward Rutledge House is located in historic Charleston, at the southwest corner of Broad and Orange Streets. It is a large Charleston double house, two stories in height, with a hip roof and clapboard siding. It is oriented as many Charleston houses are, with a two-story porch facing to the right side. The facade facing Broad Street has a gable at the center of the roof, which is fully pedimented and has modillions lining its outline. An entrance is located in the center of the main five bays, topped by a transom window and gabled pediment, and flanked by sidelight windows. The interior, which has undergone much alteration due to varied uses of the house, still retains some of its original features. The house is most notable as the home of Edward Rutledge, a signer of the United States Declaration of Independence. Rutledge, a South Carolina native, was trained in England in the law, and had by the time of the American Revolution established a law practice in Charleston. He served in the First and Second Continental Congresses, and spent time during the American Revolutionary War as a prisoner of war, having been captured in the 1780 Siege of Charleston. He served as Governor of South Carolina from 1798 to his death in 1800. The home was used for many years as a bed & breakfast, but has been returned to a private residence after extensive renovations. Where possible the Georgian exterior was restored, the windows once again being 9 x 9 and triple hung windows restored where they were removed. The front steps have regained their original shape, whereby old original windows were discovered. The extensive parking lot has been returned to an attractive garden while the kitchen house is showing its original attractive brick once again. The interior of the main house shows again a center hall and the library has returned, with Georgian style trim. In the back of the property a carriage house of old bricks and a conservancy jhave been added.
