  • Shakespeare in Love
    FEB Shakespeare 26 MAR in Love 29 Based on the screenplay by Marc Norman & Tom Stoppard Adapted for the stage by Lee Hall Music by Alex Bechtel Directed by Matt Pfeiffer Welcome to Shakespeare in Love. Every year, many of you cry out to us “Dear God, no more Shakespeare!” While others plead “I loved your Winter’s Tale, your Richard III. Please put on Midsummer. I beg you for a Twelfth Night.” With Shakespeare In Love, the Purists and the Never Barders may unite to curse us with a plague on both our houses, but if they — and you — are someone who loves love, well then . Here is a love letter to romantic love, to the theatre, and to the rebellious, transgressive, mysterious, and glorious madness of both. Whether you keep Shakespeare close to your heart or far from it, we invite you to celebrate what he loved most: the stage, its players, poetry . and a dog. Zak Berkman, Producing Director Lend me your ears Matt Pfeiffer, Director I’ve been really blessed to spend most of my career working on the plays of William Shakespeare. I believe his plays are foundational to Western culture. Love him or hate him, his infuence is an essential part of our understanding of stories and storytelling. And I’ve had the privilege for the last six years of fostering a specifc approach to his plays. I found that attempting to be in conversation with the principals of the theatre practices of Shakespeare’s time was a good starting place—not so much aesthetically, but logistically.

  • A Love Affair with Danger
    A Love Affair With Danger Bill Hastings has been in Norway about 20 times. He was first hired by The Norwegian University College of Dance in 1991 to do Dancin’ Man for their 25th anniversary. Now, he’s back at The Norwegian University College of Dance to rehearse The Rich Man’s Frug for the 50th anniversary. Can you tell me about your career as a dancer? - I went to college on a full music scholarship. I was a self-taught percussionist who dreamed of playing in a classical orchestra; however, I graduated with a degree in theatre. While in college, a friend of mine came to me and said there was an audition for a local production of the musical “Paint your Wagon”. He encouraged me to audition, and so I did. Quite surprisingly I was hired for the job. A whole new world opened to me. The combination of music, theatre and dance was thrilling. I was hooked. A lifelong career as dancer, choreographer and teacher was to follow. About the same time, I saw a film of Martha Graham’s Seraphic Dialogue; and I thought, I want to do THAT - the beautiful, powerful movement; the iconic design; and, the theatrical artfulness. However, it was the bright lights of musical theatre that ultimately won me over. You seem like you like what you are doing. Is that right? - I love what I’m doing; but, it also frightens me. It demands much from the heart, the spirit, the intellect and the body (as with most athletes, age is a constant sparring partner).
