Spring 2021 | Measure for Measure 4 The Story The laws of Vienna have slept, unattended for years. Society has grown corrupt under the lenient rule of the Duke. To clean up the city and enforce its long-neglected laws, the Duke stages his departure from Vienna, appointing the stainless Angelo as his deputy. Donning the robes of a Franciscan friar, the Duke secretly returns to observe Angelo and the outcome of his deputy’s reforms. He does not have long to wait. Angelo wastes no time reviving a moribund statute that answers fornication with death. The first victim is Claudio, Julietta's betrothed and father to her unborn child. The sentenced man’s friend, Lucio, appeals to Claudio’s sister, Isabella, a young novitiate preparing to take her sacred vows. She reluctantly agrees to come before the deputy to plead for clemency. Angelo, overcome by desire, concedes to yield up her brother—if Isabella first yields up herself to him. Claudio begs his sister to consent. The young woman urges her brother to prepare for death. Cloaked in holy disguise, the Duke now intercedes: Mariana, Angelo’s jilted fiancé, will assume Isabella’s place in the sordid shadows of night. But still Angelo orders the immediate death of Claudio. And now the Duke must contrive further and, revealing himself at last, cast a light into his own dark corners. n Spring 2021 | Measure for Measure 5 CHICAGO SHAKESPEARE THEATER Profiles YAO DOGBE (Barnardine/ Cleopatra, Troilus and Cressida.

Arena Stage at the Mead Center for American Theater is delighted to present The Arabian Nights , written and directed by Tony Award winner Mary Zimmerman ( Metamorphoses ). The production, presented in association with Berkeley Repertory Theatre , Kansas City Repertory Theatre and Lookingglass Theatre Company , has been recognized as “Zimmerman’s most theatrically complete and perfect creation” (Chicago Tribune ). The Arabian Nights explores the humanity that people across all cultures share, as told through a whimsical, imaginative and compelling story. The Arabian Nights runs January 14-February 20, 2011 in the Fichandler Stage. “Mary Zimmerman is a seminal theater artist whose gift is the visual,” says Arena Stage Artistic Director Molly Smith . “When I saw this production of The Arabian Nights at Lookingglass Theatre in Chicago I knew the production would be exhilarating in the Fichandler at Arena Stage. This is a magical story told by a magical director and her company.” The story is set in ancient Baghdad, when a courageous young girl postpones her execution by weaving magical tales for the troubled king. Genies and jesters, lovers and thieves spring to life from Scheherezade’s imagination—allowing her to win the king’s heart even as she secures her freedom.
