As we present the final play of the 2010-2011 Season, , and look toward next season’s 25th anniversary celebration, it seems only fitting to welcome a returning member of the STC family. Ethan McSweeny first joined STC as an intern in 1993. He later became my Assistant Director and went on to direct his first STC mainstage production, The Persians, in 2006. I am proud that STC has been a part of his artistic journey and delighted that he has taken on one of Shakespeare’s most controversial and emotionally rich plays to close the season.

Though this is the final mainstage production of the season, I encourage you to attend the other productions and events taking place at our theatres this summer. STC will present an HD broadcast of Roundabout Theatre Company’s The Importance of Being Earnest, starring Brian Bedford in his Tony-nominated performance as Lady Bracknell, on June 28, followed by this season’s final NT Live screening, Chekhov’s on July 11. August brings Free For All, a Washington tradition that continues with a re-staging of 2008’s Julius Caesar, kicking off our celebration of 25 classical years.

I hope you will join me in the theatres this summer and for next season’s exciting anniversary celebration and performances in the fall.

My best wishes for a wonderful summer,

Michael Kahn Artistic Director, Shakespeare Theatre Company

Bassanio, a young Italian, asks his older friend Antonio to lend him 3,000 ducats to help him court Portia, a wealthy heiress. In nearby Belmont, Portia and her assistant Nerissa discuss Portia’s many suitors, who must pass a test devised by Portia’s late father: they must choose from among caskets of gold, silver and lead to find the portrait of Portia that is hidden in one of them and prove themselves worthy of Portia's hand in marriage.

Antonio asks the Jewish moneylender Shylock to lend him the 3,000 ducats for Bassanio, because Antonio’s assets are currently tied up in trading ventures. Although Shylock resents how Antonio has treated him in the past, he agrees to lend him the money under the stipulation that should Antonio be unable to repay the loan by the appointed day, Shylock will be entitled to a pound of his flesh.

Bassanio meets up with his friends Lorenzo, Gratiano, Salerio and Solanio. Lorenzo tells them about his plan to elope with Shylock’s daughter Jessica. After Shylock leaves his house, the young men arrive in disguise to help Jessica escape (along with a box of Shylock’s money and jewels). Meanwhile, back in Belmont, two suitors pick the gold and the silver caskets, which prove to be the wrong ones.

Salerio informs Solanio that one of Antonio’s ships has been wrecked. They encounter Shylock, who is enraged at the theft of his daughter and his money, and vows to have his pound of flesh. In Belmont, Bassanio chooses the lead casket, which contains Portia’s portrait. Portia gives Bassanio a ring, which she tells him he must never take off. The couple is congratulated by Gratiano and Nerissa, who reveal that they too are engaged. Jessica, Lorenzo and Salerio arrive to inform Bassanio that the shipwreck has left Antonio destitute, and that his bond to Shylock is forfeit. Portia tells Bassanio that she will pay his friend’s debt and that he should hurry to Antonio. After Bassanio leaves, Portia tells Nerissa that they will disguise themselves as men and follow him.

The Duke urges Shylock to be merciful. Bassanio implores him to accept double the amount of the loan, but Shylock refuses, maintaining that he wants only the pound of flesh specified in the bond. Portia and Nerissa enter disguised as lawyer and clerk; Shylock and Antonio agree to abide by the lawyer's decision. Portia concludes that the bond is forfeit, but as Shylock prepares to collect, she points out that he is legally bound to take exactly one pound of Antonio's flesh, and not a drop of blood. Portia then accuses Shylock of conspiring against the life of a citizen. The Duke concludes that Shylock may live if he gives half of his assets to Antonio in trust, and all of his wealth to Jessica and Lorenzo upon Shylock’s death. Finally, Antonio demands that Shylock convert to Christianity. Defeated, Shylock agrees to these conditions and leaves the courtroom. Pressed by Bassanio and Antonio to accept some reward for her services, Portia asks that Bassanio give her the ring which she had given him as a love-pledge. Bassanio refuses, but after Portia departs, Antonio urges Bassanio to give the young lawyer the ring. Gratiano runs after Portia to deliver it, and also gives Nerissa his own ring.

Portia and Nerissa return to Belmont. After the reunited couples greet each other, Portia and Nerissa accuse their husbands of giving their rings away to other women. The men protest, but the women quickly reveal the true identity of the lawyer who saved Antonio.

11 About the Playwright

William Shakespeare

No man’s life has been the subject of more speculation than William Shakespeare’s. While Shakespearean scholars have dedicated their lives to the search for evidence, the truth is that no one really knows what the truth is. Scholars agree that a William Shakespeare was baptized at Stratford- upon-Avon on April 26, 1564. Tradition holds that he was born three days earlier, on April 23—the same date on which, 52 years later, he was recorded to have died. On November 27, 1582, a marriage license was granted to 18-year-old William and 26-year-old Anne Hathaway. A daughter, , was born to the couple six months later. We know that twins, Hamnet and Judith, were born soon after and were baptized. What we do not know is how the young Shakespeare came to travel to and how he first came to the stage. Whatever the truth may be, it is clear that in the years between 1582 and 1592 someone calling himself William Shakespeare became involved in the London theatre scene and was a principal with one of several repertory companies.

By 1592 Shakespeare had become prominent enough as a playwright to engender professional jealousy. A rival playwright, Robert Greene, wrote snidely of an “upstart crow, beautified with our feathers, that with his tiger’s heart wrapped in a player’s hide supposes he is as well able to bombast out a blank verse as the best of you, and being an absolute Johannes-factotum is in his own conceit the only Shakescene in a country.” In the years between 1591 and 1593, the theatres of London were temporarily shut down due to an outbreak of plague; Shakespeare turned his considerable talents to sonnet writing and acquired a patron, the young Lord Southampton, to whom two of his poems, Venus and Adonis and The Rape of Lucrece, are dedicated.

In 1594 Shakespeare was listed as a stockholder in the Lord Chamberlain’s Men; he was a member of this company for the rest of his career, which lasted until approximately 1611. When James I came to the throne in 1603, he issued a royal license to Shakespeare and his fellow players, inviting them to call themselves The King’s Men. The King’s Men leased the Blackfriar’s Theatre in London in 1608. This theatre, which had artificial lighting and was probably heated, served as their winter playhouse. The famous Globe Theatre was their summer performance space.

In the years since Shakespeare’s death, he had fallen to the depths of obscurity only to be resurrected as the greatest writer of English literature and drama. In the 1800s, his plays were so popular that many refused to believe that an actor from Stratford had written them. To this day some believe that Sir Francis Bacon was the real author of the plays; others argue that Edward DeVere, the Earl of Oxford, was the man. Still others contend that Sir Walter Raleigh or penned the lines attributed to Shakespeare. Whether the plays were written by Shakespeare the man or Shakespeare the myth, it is clear that no other playwright has made such a significant and lasting contribution to the English language.
