An intriguing story of power and revenge, justice and mercy, true love and duplicity, features some of Shakespeare’s most complex and memorable characters. Staged at STC for the first time in over a decade, The Merchant of Venice is directed by Ethan McSweeny, whose “posh production” of Major Barbara was hailed by The Washington Post as “dandy…light itself.”

Welcome to ’s , the fifth play of the 2010-2011 Season. It is very important to me that the Shakespeare Theatre Company produce plays that we consider modern classics in addition to well- known plays that have endured for centuries. This will be the first time that STC has produced a Pinter play, though I have loved Old Times for many years.

We continue to look ahead to our 25th Anniversary Season, which will begin with Free For All. Our generous Friends of Free For All make this much-loved Washington tradition of free Shakespeare possible. Please consider joining them to show your support and to enjoy special benefits like premium reserved seating for Julius Caesar.

As I hope you have heard, we recently announced several special anniversary shows as well. This fall we will host the award-winning Broadway musical FELA! before its U.S. tour. We will also welcome Oscar-nominated actor John Hurt for a limited number of performances of Samuel Beckett’s Krapp’s Last Tape from the Gate Theatre in Dublin. Basil Twist’s extraordinary reimagining of Petrushka will take the stage in March, and we continue to plan the two previously announced performances that will be performed in concert- style staging as part of The Bard’s Broadway.

Thank you for joining us. I hope to see you in our theatres for many more performances, both this season and next.

Best,

Michael Kahn Artistic Director, Shakespeare Theatre Company

About the Playwright

Harold Pinter

Harold Pinter was born in 1930 in East London to a Jewish family. During World War II, he was evacuated from his boyhood home to the countryside, a separation experience that deeply affected him. After the war, under the influence of teachers and friends, he began to act in plays and write, publishing his first poetry in a school magazine at 17.

After high school, Pinter attended drama school off and on, at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art and at the Central School of Speech and Drama. After finally dropping out, he spent most of the 1950s acting with regional repertory companies across England, using the stage name David Baron. During this time, Pinter met, married and had a son with the actress Vivien Merchant.

In 1957, Pinter’s childhood friend Henry Woolf mentioned that he needed a play to direct, and Pinter responded by writing in only three days. From this first play, the hallmarks of what would later be called the “Pinteresque” style were already present: menace in the most mundane discussion, a shifting recollection of the past and the use of a portentous pause. A young producer saw the play, and offered to present Pinter’s next play at London’s Lyric Hammersmith Theatre. The resulting play, The Birthday Party, was a flop with critics and audiences and closed almost immediately. Only the critic for the Sunday Times raved about the play, calling Pinter “the most original, disturbing and arresting talent in theatrical London.” Pinter finally found success as a playwright beginning in 1960 with , the story of the troubled relationship between two brothers and a mysterious homeless man. After writing several short plays, Pinter produced what many consider his masterpiece: 1964’s , another lacerating family drama about a domineering father’s power struggle with his sons, ignited when one son returns to London from America with his wife. The play triumphed in London and on Broadway.

Pinter’s middle period saw him turn to the subject of memory, even as he faced turmoil in his personal life. In 1971’s Old Times, he examined the recollected pasts of three people, demonstrating how unreliable memory can be. After affairs led to the painful dissolution of his marriage to Vivien Merchant in 1978, he wrote about an affair in . In an audacious experiment with form, the play’s scenes proceeded in reverse chronological order. Pinter emerged from this time with a strong marriage to , to whom he remained devoted for the rest of his life.

Throughout the 1970s and 1980s, Pinter turned more to directing, with major productions both of his own plays and of others’. He wrote increasingly for the screen, including the 1981 film The French Lieutenant’s Woman. Pinter also began to speak out sharply on political matters, opposing wars in the Balkans and in the Middle East; his plays also took a political turn, with such works as Mountain Language addressing repression and torture.

Pinter was the subject of several retrospectives and symposia after the year 2000, though he battled poor health at the same time. In 2005, he received his highest honor: the Nobel Prize in literature. His health continued to falter and Harold Pinter died shortly before Christmas in 2008, having forever changed the way the English language is used on stage.

Committed to Artistic Excellence Both On and Off Stage STC has widened its notion of “company” by crediting a select group of actors, directors and designers as Affiliated Artists. STC recognizes its commitment to the actors who have been the cornerstone of the theatre’s work for years, while also formally acknowledging the theatre’s relationship with other artists whose work has contributed immeasurably to the excellence of STC’s productions. The theatre is incredibly grateful to these Affiliated Artists and looks forward to continuing to produce the finest classical theatre As proud in America with them. supporters Affiliated Artists of the Shakespeare Keith Baxter Floyd King Avery Brooks Andrew Long Theatre Company, Helen Carey Ethan McSweeny Veanne Cox Jennifer Moeller Gordon Biersch Aubrey Deeker David Muse Colleen Delany James Noone gladly honors Franchelle Stewart Dorn Patrick Page Adam Green Robert Perdziola Edward Gero Nancy Robinette Philip Goodwin David Sabin Jane Greenwood Miriam Silverman Daily Command Performances. Michael Hayden Walt Spangler   Tom Story Tana Hicken Costume rendering by Robert Perdziola.

“My experience at The Academy for Classical Acting was nothing short of transformational. Since graduation, I have been offered four professional contracts with solid regional theatre companies, including the Shakespeare Theatre Company itself.”

Brit Herring, Class of 2009
