LETTER FROM ARTISTIC DIRECTOR DAVID IVERS

It’s extraordinary that we are here, concluding our 2017/2018 season with the powerful and important The Diary of Anne Frank. Thank you for your tremendous support, your heartfelt encouragement, and your welcoming spirit. We love being in Arizona and remain committed to serving you and serving up the kind of theatre our cities deserve. We are already in the thick of planning next season, hiring artists, moving toward design meetings, and crafting new initiatives as we not only raise funds, but seek to “raise the bar!” I won’t go on too much about all that, other than to say we are here because of you and we will be responsible stewards moving forward. So, thanks.

Without a doubt, ATC is known for its breadth of programming and its excellence in execution. Here, you’ll experience no less: a production chosen and directed by my predecessor, David Ira Goldstein. It is crafted with love, determination, and joy: the same qualities shared by the people and characters who appear in this tragic, hopeful, and powerful journey.

To be truthful, I can’t read or watch or witness much more injustice, hate, and discrimination in the world. I don’t have the capacity to sit through rehearsals of The Diary of Anne Frank without a pocket- ful of Kleenex. I don’t have the fortitude at the moment to even visit our memorials and institutions that pay homage to past tragedies without losing it. Maybe I see my kids in the children on stage and on television and in the pictures at the Jewish Holocaust Museums. Maybe I’m just worn out with tragedy. Maybe I thought I had some answers and could quell the fears of my boys, who are starting to ask deeper questions as I hurry to turn off the news before they digest something Dad can’t explain.

Still, I know I must watch and do watch and grow stronger from learning from the past, even as our country’s kids RISE up to teach us adults once again. Strange to watch The Diary of Anne Frank and then watch the news; there’s Emma González, just like Anne, fortified with love and forced too young to muster a courage born out of evil. I wish I had something more eloquent to say here, but I stumble to find words. Maybe that’s the point? Maybe I’ll take my cue from those kids and offer this:

Just a bit of respect. A long silence to remember.

And somewhere in that silence, I’ll still whisper a “thanks.” A thank you and an offer of love to survivors and victims of the Holocaust as once again we turn to the stage to remind us of the stories of our time.

Much love,

David Ivers Artistic Director [email protected]

Under new leadership – and now celebrating its 51st-season – Arizona Theatre Company boasts the largest subscriber base of any performing arts organization in Arizona, with more than 130,000 people each year attending performances at the historic Temple of Music and Art in Tucson, and the elegant Herberger Theater Center in downtown Phoenix.
