Take a look at connections from Seattle Shakespeare’s history shared by The Winter’s Tale’s director and select members of the cast.

On August 11 the New York Times* ran an article on the rare joy of seeing actors perform in repertory, portraying multiple roles in different plays over the course of Sheila Daniels a few days. The article ran just days after the start of rehearsals for The Winter’s Tale. Reginald André Jackson and Amy Thone Director Sheila Daniels addressed the assembled group made up primarily of the in A Midsummer Night’s Dream (2011) cast, by noting something unique, “I am so struck by history by looking at this room.”

There was a lot of history in that room. A history of many artists who have worked and King Lear Pericles appeared together on our stages, in some cases, dating back nearly 25 years. Although 2014 2007 it’s not as immediate and visceral to see an actor play Falstaff one day and then King Lear the next afternoon, there is something special about watching artists grow over time. A Midsummer A Midsummer Reginald Amy Several artists in The Winter’s Tale have appeared on our stages in multiple Night’s Dream Night’s Dream André Thone 2011 1998 productions and in various combinations. We thought it was worth noting the Jackson Macbeth “history” of these artistic relationships. Below is a sampling of some of the artistic 2001 collaborations that have taken place over time on our stages. Much Ado “I was thinking about Amy this morning and realized that the first time I ever saw Amy As You About Nothing Richard II on stage was in 1986 in the summer at Oregon Shakespeare Festival,” Daniels recalled, Like It 2010 2014 “and that same fall Reg [Reginald André Jackson] and I were students together at Lane 2001 Community College.” Henry V 2003 Reggie appeared in Seattle Shakespeare Company’s second production, Othello (1992). He and Amy Thone appeared together for the first time on our stage as Helena and Brenda Joyner and Darragh Kennan in Demetrius in A Midsummer Night’s Dream (1998) and then went on to appear together in Antony and Hamlet (2010) productions of Macbeth (2001), King Lear (2004), and A Midsummer Night’s Dream (2011). King Lear Cleopatra 2004 2012 George Mount hired Sheila Daniels to direct Electra her first Shakespeare production, Macbeth “It’s the kind of creative 2010 (2005), for Wooden O.

A-16 SEATTLE SHAKESPEARE COMPANY Dialogue continued

I also love hearing from teens who do not participate in any other kinds of art activities in their day-to-day lives. We have a young woman right now on the New Guard, our Teen Arts Leadership Society, named Elizabeth. She goes to Aviation High School in Tukwila, which is a STEM high school. She says that TeenTix taught her that you don’t have to be an artist to be a part of the arts community, and that art is now a huge part of her life and the way she engages with the world—she never expected that to happen. People like Elizabeth are so important for the health of this community, and we need to be nurturing their interest and inviting them to participate in every way that we can.

You are asking me this at a particularly tender time, seattleshakespeare.org | 206-733-8222 with me stepping down at the end of October. One memory that is really STRAWBERRY indelible is a young woman named THEATRE WORKSHOP Olivia Menzer. She was an athlete, G ENIUS primarily, in high school, but she started writing reviews for the TeenTix blog, and then she participated in a little experiment we were doing with On the Boards for a bit called the Contemporary Performance Cool Kids Club where a group of teens committed to seeing everything in OtB’s season for one year and then they would get together on Saturdays with Dave Schmader and just talk about it. That program was one of the better things we’ve done. Anyway, that season OtB produced a conversation hosted by CultureBot where they asked a bunch of different audience types to give short talks about their experiences with contemporary performance. Olivia was one of them, and she just blew the walls down. She was so honest and vulnerable about her anxiety and confusion about some of the work she had seen, and so passionate about STRAWSHOP.ORG SEP 8–OCT 8 what it meant to her and how it had
