A Prisoner of the Crown, Both Resourceful and Busy
The Yeomen of the Guard Symphony Space Operetta can be a delicate dance between librettist and composer, but who will lead and who will follow? This question plagued Arthur Sullivan, who by 1888 was tired of writing tuneful but subservient scores to W. S. Gilberts brilliant librettos. The tension helped give birth to The Yeomen of the Guard, a work unique in the teams output for its operatic aspirations, its tilt toward romance over comedy, and its oddly morose ending in which the right couples dont quite find each other..

Arts, Briefly
Rapper Recovering From Shooting The rapper Camron was recovering at home in Harlem yesterday, having been shot in both arms early Sunday, The Associated Press reported. The shooting occurred when someone apparently tried to carjack his Lamborghini after he left a nightclub in Washington. People are foolish if they think Im going to lose my head and give up anything to anyone just because someone threatens me, Camron, 29, right, said in a statement yesterday. Im doing O.K. It takes more than a botched carjacking to keep me down. Lynn Hobson, a spokeswoman for Diplomat Records, Camrons label, said a single shot had passed through both of his arms. He was treated at Howard University Hospital and released on Sunday afternoon. His next album, Killa Season, is to be issued in February. Newark Boy Makes Good Newark has a new street sign as well as a plaque on the home where Philip Roth, the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of American Pastoral and other novels, grew up, The Associated Press reported. Not only was Mr. Roth on hand for the ceremony on Sunday, but so was Mayor Sharpe James, along with 75 Roth fans on a bus tour of Newark sites featured in his books. Mr. Roth, 72, lived in the home in the Weequahic neighborhood from 1933 to 1942. At the Weequahic Branch Library, in comments reported by The Star-Ledger of Newark, Mr. Roth referred to the Nobel Prize ceremony when he said, Today, Newark is my Stockholm, and that plaque is my prize. Chief Ousted At Screen Actors Guild After only six months on the job, Greg Hessinger, below, has been dismissed as national executive director and chief executive of the Screen Actors Guild, The Associated Press reported. The decision by the board of the 100,000-member union was announced by its president, Alan Rosenberg, who represents a faction that opposes a merger with the American Federation of Television and Radio Artists. The union rejected the merger two years ago. Mr. Hessinger, hired by the previous president, Melissa Gilbert, supported the merger. Peter Frank, the unions chief financial officer, was named interim successor to Mr. Hessinger. The Scream Game, Stolen From Life The Munch Museum in Oslo, which lost the world-famous Scream by Edvard Munch in a daring robbery last year, is drawing criticism for selling a new cops-and-robbers board game, The Mystery of The Scream, Agence France-Presse reported. My initial reaction is to disapprove of an initiative that helps trivialize a national and international drama while the painting is still missing, said Kaare Berntsen, the artistic director of a gallery in Oslo. But Jurunn Christoffersen, a spokeswoman for the Munch Museum, said: Some people think its horrible to treat the matter as a game, but we see things totally differently. Its a completely innocent game. Meant for players above the age of 6, the game, created by the Aschehoug publishing house, which calls it educational, allows its participants to play either detectives or thieves. It has 36 cards featuring works of art known to the children. Funny Guy Steve Martin, accepting the Mark Twain Prize for American Humor at the Kennedy Center in Washington on Sunday, recalled some of his other honors, including a 1969 writing Emmy for The Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour, The Associated Press reported. But of course, he said, the Mark Twain Prize is more special to me, because its more recent. Between clips from his movies and television appearances, Mr. Martin, right, was saluted by actors including Tom Hanks, Lily Tomlin, Diane Keaton, Martin Short and Claire Danes, and the musicians Paul Simon and Randy Newman. Ms. Tomlin said, His artistry soars to heights of sublime silliness and sublime absurdity. PBS is to televise the tribute on Nov. 9. Just for Laughs With contributions from Shelley Berman, Dick Cavett, Phyllis Diller, Norman Lear, Jackie Mason and Jonathan Winters, among others, Emerson College in Boston has established a comedy archive. Described as the first of its kind, the collection of oral histories is intended to enhance the study of comedy as an American art form. Besides recording oral histories, the American Comedy Archives, as it is called, is collecting scripts, monographs, photographs, audio and video recordings, memorabilia and personal papers from significant figures in comedy. Diana Fountain Inquiry British lawmakers plan to question officials about the trouble-plagued $6.3 million fountain erected in Hyde Park, London, in honor of Diana, Princess of Wales, Agence France-Presse reported. Designed by the American architect Kathryn Gustafson, the monument was beset by faulty pumps, blockages, muddy grass and slippery surroundings that led to its closing for four months after it was opened by Queen Elizabeth II in July 2004. The hearing by the Public Accounts Committee of Parliament was scheduled for Nov. 2. Playing for Peace Perched on the rooftops of Nicosia, the divided capital of Cyprus, musicians blew horns and banged drums yesterday to demonstrate unity on the 60th anniversary of the United Nations, Agence France-Presse reported. The event, Long Distance Call, above, was organized by the Dutch composer Merlijn Twaalfhoven. Last year he paid his first visit to the island, split between Greeks in the south and Turks in the north. Seeing the situation of this beautiful island being divided was a reason for me to start fantasizing about how to bridge this gap with sound and music. He arranged for musicians on both sides of the United Nations-patrolled buffer zone to play alternately throughout the day. Footnote Featuring the clarinet virtuoso Dan Levinson, the 13-piece Stan Rubin Orchestra will recreate the heyday of big-band swing on Tuesdays at Charley Os on Broadway at 49th Street. At 8:30 p.m. tonight, the ensemble will salute the hits of Benny Goodman and Glenn Miller, with an occasional nod to Tommy Dorsey, Duke Ellington, Harry James and their contemporaries. On Monday nights, Mr. Rubins Tigertown Five plays Chicago-style Dixieland..

Independent Curators: Have Art, Will Travel
FOR Jade Dellinger, working as an independent curator -- without formal ties to a single institution -- is a matter of freedom. Im interested in creating the most appropriate context for a particular artist, he said, without any particular allegiance to a museum or regard for the way institutions usually do things. When Peter Doroshenko became the founding director of the Institute of Visual Arts in Milwaukee, working with independent curators was a matter of necessity. How else could he attract -- or afford -- to bring in curators with their fingers on the pulse of the global contemporary art scene?. Museum exhibits are increasing being produced by independent curators rather than by curators attached to museum; practice has been common in Europe for some time; exhibitions curated by celebrity curators now help top-level American museums keep their high profiles, and economic downturn has made independently curated shows attractive to many smaller and midsize museums; curators attached to institutions question trend, noting that backbone of any museum its its programs and collection; photos (M) (Special section, Museums)

Its Take 2 For Merger Of Actors Unions
The ballots have gone out, the barricades are up, and the sniping has escalated, a sure sign in Hollywood that the perennially feuding members of the Screen Actors Guild are at it again. This time the flash point is yet another attempt to merge that 117,000-member union with the 80,000-member American Federation of Television and Radio Artists, known as Aftra, which also represents actors. A merger has been discussed since the 1940s, but it came up for a vote only once, in 1999, when the proposal fell far short of the 60 percent needed to pass. Now its proponents, including the officers of both unions, argue that while Hollywood studios and television networks are consolidating into bigger and bigger global conglomerates, the best way for performers to magnify their clout is similarly to band together..

The Meat Raffle
My 93-year-old grandmother has been feeling poorly recently, so I took a trip out to Minnesota to visit her. Unfortunately, I dont know my Minnesota relatives that well; my mother moved East as a young woman and pretty much stayed East. So I cherished this opportunity to spend time not only with my grandmother but also with my aunts and my passel of predominantly female cousins. And, as always, staying in their homes, I was instilled with such a profound respect for how capably and calmly these women embody their traditional female duties -- knitting, crocheting, gardening, cooking, caretaking, nourishing..

TV: MELISSA GILBERT INDIARY OF ANNE FRANK
THE DIARY of Anne Frank, on NBC-TV tonight at 9 oclock, continues to survive with remarkable strength. The play, adapted by Frances Goodrich and Albert Hackett from the book The Diary of a Young Girl, manages to convey with power the horror of the Nazi holocaust by focusing on a small group of Jewish people hiding in an Amsterdam attic. When Anne begins her diary on July 6, 1942, shes 13 years old. Two years later, she and her family are discovered and sent to concentration camps. Only her father survived. Meanwhile, however, the play captures the initial blossomings of a sensitive and beautiful young woman doomed for the simple fact that she was a Jew. The monstrousness of her inevitable murder is always palpable, gradually overwhelming.

A Graceful Surrender for Gilbert and Sullivans Uppity Feminist
For a fan of the Gilbert and Sullivan operettas, with their neo-Handelian scores and brilliant wordplay, the New York Gilbert and Sullivan Players annual monthlong residency at Symphony Space is a highlight of the concert season. Where there were once a handful of groups presenting this repertory in New York, this troupe, founded by Albert Bergeret in 1974 and still directed by him, is the last of its kind. Its productions are attractive and solid, and the performances have grown increasingly polished over the years. Typically the company balances one of the best-known works against a comparative rarity. This season the works are The Pirates of Penzance, which runs through Sunday, and Princess Ida, which had a shorter run that ended on Sunday. Apart from the charms of the work itself, the draw in the companys Princess Ida was the comedian Frank Gorshin, who sang the role of King Gama, and who was both in good voice and fine comic form on Saturday evening..
