“Baseball Clown”

I saw that there's a video about Frank Oakley. It seemed pretty damn interesting.

Despite the fact that they're a clown.

Annie Get Your Gun is a character assassination spurred by post war gender politics.

I love Annie Oakley and the musical adaptation of her life pisses me off.

If you don’t know the plot:

basically, Annie is an uncultured sharpshooter who gets into a competition with Frank E. Butler (another sharpshooter and her future husband). She beats him, falls for him, and is told by the people around her to change herself for him. He is also attracted to her but emasculated by her. To get together she has to challenge him again and pull an Atalanta and lose to allow him to save face.

This is probably slightly off because I haven’t actually seen it, but from the synopses I’ve found that’s the vibe.

This is so far from the truth.

Oakley may not always have been the proper lady she was known to be, but that was an important part of her stage persona.

Her husband fell head over heels for her BECAUSE she beat him. He eventually gave up his career as a performer because he knew she was better and a bigger draw and shifted to being her manager and a salesman. This man was a simp (affectionate).

Also Sitting Bull, the person who convinces her to lose on purpose in the play, would not have done that. That man loved and respected the hell out of Annie and her skills and symbolically “adopted” her. He would not have told her to make less of them to get a man.

So character assassinations all around.

Why did I claim post war gender politics though? The play came out 1946.

What happened the year before? The end of world war 2.

What happens during that war (and most wars that pull nearly all the men for soldiers)? Women took over jobs back home.

Post world war 2 is notorious for its gender politics and shoving women back into the home. There was a huge issue/worry of emasculation.

So what do Dorothy & Herbert Fields and Irving Berlin do? Write a musical about a badass woman making herself smaller to save face for the man she loves so they can get together.

And like so many stories before and since, they imposed this story onto preexisting people/characters with personality and stories that do not align with the story they wanted to tell.

And because it is one of the main ways that people learn about them, it ruins people’s perspective on them. Which as a huge fan of Annie Oakley (and her husband tbh), fills me with furry.

She deserves so much better.

And so does Frank dammit!

Thinking about Enemies With Benefits Eddie and Reader who just do it all their lives. That’s it.

Enemies who fuck on the regular, and get stuck with each other after accidentally getting knocked up (bonus points, young parents above 18 y/o). Enemies who fuck and also co-parent. Enemies who fuck and co-parent, who also date other people but it NEVER EVER works out from sabotage to just matters of life. Enemies who fuck and also co-parent and move to live nearby each other (for the sake of the kids—turns into more than one eventually). Enemies who fuck and also co-parent, but Eddie has made it as a rockstar and still he pays more attention to his enemy and mother of his kids, than any singer, model or groupie. Enemies who fuck, co-parent, live near each other and Reader makes it as an actress (former drama kid, hence why she’s got no problem butting heads and holding her own against Eddie) but pays more attention to her enemy and the father of her kids, than she does other actors, directors and entrepreneurs.

And they just stay messy to the grave, but they share joint plots so they can be together (and argue) forever because death never got the chance to part them due to the lack of rings.

It’d be so messy and toxic and somehow becomes heavily romanticized by the public (a la Brando and Moreno, Annie Oakley and Frank Butler ‘Annie Get Your Gun’) because they’re enemies with benefits who genuinely are in love with each other, have been all these years, and hate it so much they fight it all their lives.

idk, i think it’s neat ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

WORLD OF METROPOLIS #1-4

August/November 1988

By John Byrne, Win Mortimer, Frank McLaughlin, Sal Trapani, Dick Giordano, Tom Ziuko, Todd Klein, Bill Oakley, and Albert De Guzman.

This is the last mini-series commemorating the 50 years of Superman, and it centered around stories from Metropolis: Perry White, Lois Lane, Clark Kent, and Jimmy Olsen.

Perry White learns that Luthor wants to sell the Daily Planet and manages to buy it.

Lois Lane, age 15, wants to get a job at the Daily Planet.

Clark finds a job while he tries to get admitted into Metropolis University.

Jimmy Olsen invents the signal watch to save a friend.

SCORE: 10

I am going to repeat what I said when I reviewed "World of Smallville," the artistic decisions may not have been ideal for the time this was published, but it simply works!

Of course, the script is the real star here, so bringing in veteran artists to celebrate Superman doesn't feel forced.

Perhaps I would have appreciated a little bit more information about Metropolis. The main island of the city was "New Troy," which isn't something I remembered at all. Also that is a very young Lois lane on the page above.

By this point, us readers knew that Jerry White was Luthor's son. The story of how that happened was explained in the fist chapter and this also ties into that other plot about Jimmy's father that was recently explored.

The Lois chapter was pretty good, until this happened...

Up to this point Luthor has been acting like a soap opera villain, always laughing after doing something evil... but him keeping a videotape of Lois getting stripped is too much (although, as I understand it, It doesn't seem like she was ever naked).

Another interesting fact that was explored in the third chapter was that Clark originally had a midwest accent (which totally makes sense), and he had to "unlearn" it before becoming Superman.

Also Clark unknowingly saved Lois before he even went to the University.

The mini ends with Jimmy creating the signal to save his friend's life. This friend, Chrissy, never appeared again.

For that matter, Clark's "friend," Ruby, also never appeared again (except for one photo later on).

I think that, overall, World of Metropolis was better than "World of Smallville," simply because it explored plots that weren't recently explored (they were still ongoing, but at least the artist didn't have to trace Byrne's or Ordways' work here.)

I can do anything better than you!

It's Sukka Week!

My entry for Day 1 is based on the song "Anything You Can Do" from the musical Annie Get Your Gun, based on the life of Annie Oakley and her romance with fellow sharpshooter and Wild West show performer Frank Butler. It rather reminds me of Sukka's beginnings : )

Frank Frayne’s Fatal Shot Echoed Through The Decades In Over-The-Rhine

When Frank I. Frayne’s troupe rolled into Cincinnati back in 1882, there was scant indication that he would precipitate the darkest night in Cincinnati theater history.

Frayne managed an immense production bankrolled by New York impresario Harry Miner. It was really big. Frayne’s show was so big, it was advertised as a “combination.” That was a term the biggest circuses used to describe their organizations. The “circus” meant only the acts in the sawdust ring. Add a sideshow with various freaks and a traveling zoo and you had a combination. That’s what Frank Frayne brought to Cincinnati. An advertisement [28 November 1881] gives a fair inventory of Frayne’s traveling ensemble:

“During the week and Wednesday and Saturday Matinees, Harry Miner’s Frank I. Frayne Combination and Dramatic Artists, and the Wonderful Acting Dog Jack, the African Lion Emperor; also the two Performing Bears Bruno and Chio. Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Wednesday Matinee, “Mardo, or, The Nihilists of St. Petersburg.” Thursday, Friday and Saturday and Saturday Matinee, “Si Slocum.”

One year later, in November 1882, Frayne was back in Cincinnati at the Coliseum Theater on Vine Street with the same two melodramas, but this time his menagerie was enlarged by the addition of a small pack of hyenas. Jack the Dog still got star billing. The Coliseum Theater up on Vine Street was the jewel in Hubert Heuck’s chain of theaters here and in various Midwest cities. It was formerly a beer garden but Heuck converted it into a theater and opera house at no small expense.

It appears that “Mardo” was Frayne’s personal adaptation of a play by Oscar Wilde, “Vera, or The Nihilists.” Frayne’s script has not survived, but the newspaper reviews suggest that it was a ton more exciting than Wilde’s drama. Here is the Enquirer [28 November 1882]:

“There are any amount of desperate actions, dastardly threats, fire scenes, murders, &c., and the lovers of this style of drama will see almost a lifetime of sensation in each act of “Mardo.” The dog Jack is a show in himself and acts his part with the best of the cast. During the play we see the Nubian lion, the ferocious hyenas and the wrestling bear, and these, together with a very passable cast, make it impossible for “Mardo” to be at all dull.”

Frank Frayne himself was fairly well known. He was a sharpshooter at a time when that was a popular stage act. Among his contemporaries and competitors were Annie Oakley and her mentor and husband, Frank Butler. Frayne found enormous success incorporating his rifle tricks into the context of various melodramas in which he portrayed heroic men of action forced to shoot their way out of diabolical predicaments.

Frayne’s second Cincinnati offering, “Si Slocum” was written especially for Frayne by Clifton Tayleure, a successful Broadway producer. The plot is inconsequential, but involves Frayne as Si Slocum, a poor but honest rancher whose lands are coveted by the nefarious scoundrel, Vasquez. It is doubtful that Tayleure envisioned all the zoological extravagances and sharpshooting folderol Frayne piled onto his script. In the course of five acts, Slocum kills a lion, gets rescued by his faithful hound, shoots a pipe out of a ranch-hand’s mouth, plugs a half-dozen playing cards, shoots a bear, scatters the stage with random crockery and saves his wife several times. Somehow, the hyenas made an appearance as well. This stuff sold tickets back then. The Coliseum’s 2,000 seats were occupied the entire week of Frayne’s residency.

The role of Slocum’s wife was played by 25-year-old Annie Von Behren, an up-and-coming actress who was at that time Frayne’s fiancée. Brooklyn-born Miss Von Behren had an extensive theatrical resume before she took on the role of Ruth Slocum. She was thoroughly familiar with the Coliseum Theater, having performed for a couple of years among the stock company of that venue. She later joined a traveling troupe that took her to New York, where she met the widowed Frank Frayne, joined his combination as leading lady and won his heart.

At a critical scene in “Si Slocum,” Vasquez has Slocum cornered, with a dozen bandits drawing a bead on him. Vasquez announces that he likes Slocum’s “pluck,” and offers to free Slocum and end their feud if Slocum can shoot an apple off his wife’s head, while facing backward and aiming the shot with a mirror. Frayne had performed this trick shot hundreds of times over the years.

For reasons never fully explained, Frayne’s trick shot failed, and he sent a bullet through Annie Von Behren’s brain. Frayne screamed in terror as he rushed to his fiancée’s side. The curtain dropped immediately as the audience sat in petrified silence. Theater manager James Fennessey sent H.M. Markham, the actor appearing as the villain Vasquez, to the front of the stage to calm the audience. Markham nervously informed the crowd that the dead Annie von Behren had sustained a slight injury and they should collect a refund on their way out the door.

The next day, Coroner John Rendigs conducted an inquest, at which Frayne appeared. Some witnesses claimed Frayne’s rifle malfunctioned and that, in particular, a screw broke as the gun fired, dropping the rifle barrel downward. Some suggested the cartridge was defective. Other witnesses questioned why Annie was not wearing a metal cap under her wig as she usually did. The coroner declared the death accidental, caused by a bullet fired without criminal intent. Frayne announced he would never return to the stage but did so within a year, reviving the role of Si Slocum. Soon after, he married a woman named Margaret Thompson, who wisely refused to go on stage in his act.

Another victim of the Frayne shooting was the Coliseum Theater itself. Robert Heuck, son of Coliseum owner Hubert Heuck, explained [Bulletin of the Historical and Philosophical Society of Ohio - Volume 20, No. 4, October 1962] that the theater had to be renamed as a result of public opinion.

“The court decision declaring [Frayne’s] innocence was not taken lightly by a great many people in Over-the-Rhine. The show was only closed November 30th and December 1st, however; the receipts for the 2nd and 3rd were light. The court decision was so unpopular that it was thought best to change the name of this new theatre. In fact, it was called just that, "New Theatre," for some time. In 1883, the name of the New Theatre between 12th and 13th on Vine was changed to Heuck's Opera House, and the former Heuck's Opera House at 13th and Vine was re-named ‘People's.’ Of course, it's confusing! Many accounts relating to actors and plays of those earlier show days are in error for lack of understanding of this gobble-de-gook.”

The rechristened Heuck’s was renamed again in 1930 when it became a movie theater known as the Rialto. The building was demolished and the site is today a parking lot.
