  • Welcome to May 27! a Little Light: Daily Musings with Mary
    A Little Light: Daily Musings with Mary Sue Welcome to May 27! I know, it’s not Christmas, but I just couldn’t help myself. I woke up very early yesterday; it was too early for my morning walk. I decided to be productive as I waited for the sun to rise, and noticed a shelf needed organized. There in the very back of the shelf was our family’s favorite Christmas movie, “It’s a Wonderful Life.” I could not resist the urge; I made my coffee and watched this old classic. I was reminded through this touching film, how very “successful” I am. Not for what I have done or do, rather, because I have dear and wonderful friends! Yes, the kind of “stick with you through thick and thin” friends who have seen me through so much of life’s joys and challenges. I decided this week to let these friends know how much their lives have meant to mine. Would you like to join me on this quest of gratitude? I hope you do! Let’s join together and let our friends know how they help in making our lives so very successful! Please see links below to some of my favorite songs about friendship! FACT: According to the National Council for Behavior Health, friendship is key to mental health. It can be hard to talk to family members about mental health. That’s why it is important to have healthy friendships to turn to in times of need. Our friends can be that ear to talk to, shoulder to lean on and nonjudgmental perspective that we need.

  • AS YOU LIKE IT, the First Production of Our 50Th Anniversary Season, and the First Show in Our Shakespearean Act
    Welcome It is my pleasure to welcome you to AS YOU LIKE IT, the first production of our 50th anniversary season, and the first show in our Shakespearean act. Shakespeare’s plays have been a cornerstone of our work at CSC, and his writing continues to reflect and refract our triumphs and trials as individuals and collectively as a society. We inevitability turn to Shakespeare to express our despair, bewilderment, and delight. So, what better place to start our anniversary year than with the contemplative search for self and belonging in As You Like It. At the heart of this beautiful play is a speech that so perfectly encapsulates our mortality. All the world’s a stage, and we go through so many changes as we make our exits and our entrances. You will have noticed many changes for CSC. We have a new look, new membership opportunities, and are programming in a new way with more productions and a season that splits into what we have called “acts.” Each act focuses either on a playwright or on an era of work. It seemed appropriate to inaugurate this with a mini-season of Shakespeare, which continues with Fiasco Theater's TWELFTH NIGHT. Then there is Act II: Americans dedicated to work by American playwrights Terrence McNally (FIRE AND AIR) and Tennessee Williams (SUMMER AND SMOKE); very little of our repertoire has focused on classics written by Americans. This act also premieres a new play by Terrence McNally, as I feel that the word classic can also encapsulate the “bigger idea” and need not always be the work of a writer from the past.
