Visit our web site: www.wvlo.org e-mail: [email protected] A Note from Our Director ... The first Shakespearean play I ever saw was "The Taming Of The Shrew" and since then I have been a fan as an actor, director and audience member. One of the enduring things about Shakespeare is its timelessness and versatility even after several hundred years. His plays have been set in almost every historical period and even in some imaginary ones. "Kiss Me, Kate" is a great example of that versatility. I've wanted to be involved in a production of this show ever since I learned about it. What is brilliant about "Kiss Me, Kate" is that it takes this wonderful play by Shakespeare; adds the great music of Cole Porter and blends what takes place offstage, and on stage, so you're not quite sure where one play ends and the other begins. And does all this without losing the basic story of "The Taming Of The Shrew". Someone said to me that "Kiss Me, Kate" is the first "Shakespeare In Love". I agree. The film "Shakespeare In Love" introduced Shakespeare to millions of people who had always avoided his works. They discovered that he was not as "stuffy" or as difficult to understand as they thought. I hope that after you see "Kiss Me, Kate", you will have a better understanding of how much fun Shakespeare can be and might even go see one of his plays sometime. I am very proud of this cast, orchestra, crew and staff who have worked so hard on this production. When I began rehearsals for this show, I challenged everyone to make "Kiss Me, Kate" something special; to work harder, to be more creative and to do things differently than they've done in the past, even though it may seem uncomfortable. They have all worked very hard to meet those chal- lenges. How successful we have been is up to you, the audience, to decide. Hope- fully, you will be pleasantly surprised. So sit back, relax and enjoy the perfor- mances of a very talented cast, orchestra and crew in this wonderful production of "Kiss Me, Kate". -Steven Lambert, Director "The thing that makes Shakespeare breathtaking and defines poetry, is the simul- taneous compression of language and the expansion of meaning.

  • Concert 1 September 29, 2018 Three Dance Episodes from on the Town
    Concert 1 September 29, 2018 Three Dance Episodes from On the Town—Leonard Bernstein Almost three decades after Leonard Bernstein’s death, the critics are still arguing over the meaning and impact of his legacy. What is clear, however, is that the world rarely enjoys the genius of someone who excels supremely in so many artistic endeavors. Pianist, conductor, television personality, teacher, mentor, social gadfly, and composer of both popular musical theatre and “serious works,” Bernstein wore all hats with avidity. And he enjoyed stunning success in most. He had a passion about everything that he essayed, whether conducting the Mahler that he loved so well, or in his many teaching roles, helping audiences “peel” apart the mysteries of music. He knew so much, and could do so much, that he genuinely thought that he could do it all. His leadership of the New York Philharmonic Orchestra and other orchestras is legendary, but everyone knows there were some concerts that, frankly, got away from him in his self-indulgence exhuberance. He worked assiduously as a composer of “serious” music, but those works—from youthful successes to his late efforts--have enjoyed only mixed success. All that says is simply that he was human. Other than his epochal conducting, there is one field in which he garnered almost universal acclaim, and that is musical theatre. When all is said and done, he possessed a talent and a facility for the stage that was as deep as it was prolific. He understood the genre and its demands well. He plunged in early, writing for student productions at Harvard, and working with a cabaret group (that included Judy Holiday) while a student at the Curtis Institute.

  • Developmental Cross Training Repertoire for Musical Theatre
    Developmental Cross Training Repertoire for Musical Theatre Women The repertoire suggestions below target specific developmental goals. It is important to keep in mind however that the distinguishing characteristic of musical theatre singing is the variability of tonal resonance within any given song. A predominantly soprano song might suddenly launch into a belt moment. A chest dominant ballad may release into a tender soprano. Story always pre-empts musical choices. “Just You Wait” from My Fair Lady is part of the soprano canon but we would be disappointed if Eliza could not tell Henry Higgins what she really felt. In order to make things easier for beginning students, it’s a good idea to find repertoire with targeted range and consistent quality as students develop skill in coordinating registration. Soprano Mix—Beginner, Teens to Young Adult Examples of songs to help young sopranos begin to feel functionally confident and enthusiastic about characters and repertoire. Integrating the middle soprano is a priority and it is wise to start there. My Ship Lady in the Dark Weill Far from the Home I Love Fiddler on the Roof Bock/ Harnick Ten Minutes Ago Cinderella Rodgers/Hammerstein Mr. Snow Carousel Rodgers/Hammerstein Happiness is a Thing Called Joe Cabin in the Sky Arlen/Harburg One Boy Bye Bye Birdie Strouse/Adams Dream with Me Peter Pan Bernstein Just Imagine Good News!
