    THE LIFESPAN OF A FACT Page 1 of 6 **FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE** December 23, 2019 Asolo Rep Proudly Presents THE LIFESPAN OF A FACT The 2018 Broadway Hit Runs January 22 - March 19 (SARASOTA, December 23, 2019) — Asolo Rep proudly continues its winter repertory season with the recent Broadway sizzling hit dramedy THE LIFESPAN OF A FACT, by Jeremy Kareken & David Murrell and Gordon Farrell. Directed by Asolo Rep Associate Artistic Director Celine Rosenthal, THE LIFESPAN OF A FACT previews January 22 and 23, opens January 24 and runs through March 19 in rotating repertory in the Mertz Theatre, located in the FSU Center for the Performing Arts. At a high-end, struggling magazine, millennial fact-checker, Jim, is eager to prove he has what it takes to his demanding editor, Emily. His first assignment: to fact check a groundbreaking essay by a famous author that offers a glimmer of hope to the publication's future, reeling from dwindling circulation and shrinking ad sales. But as he dives into the article, he discovers that the essay is riddled with inaccuracy after inaccuracy, and so begins the heated battle between truth and fact and right and wrong. “THE LIFESPAN OF A FACT is remarkably pertinent – it hits right on the pulse of what is going on today in the world of media and politics,” said Asolo Rep Producing Artistic Director Michael Donald Edwards. “It is one of the best plays I’ve seen recently, packed with razor-sharp dialogue and unexpected twists and turns that will keep audiences laughing, guessing and gasping.

  • Full Arts and Economic Prosperity III Study
    Arts & Economic The Economic Impact of Nonprofit Arts .rMI Culture Organizations and Their Audience From the iconic images of the Florida Highwaymen to the museums that preserve and collect our history, arts and culture define us. They improve quality of life for Floridians and visitors to our state. The arts and culture inspire creativity and lifelong learning, build strong communities, and build a strong network for leadership that encourages a stronger Florida. The findings of The Arts and Economic Prosperity III reveal that, in addition to these innumerable benefits, arts and culture bring economic vitality to our state. This study reveals that the cultural industry is important to economic prosperity. In Florida, arts and culture mean business. With more than $3 billion in total direct expenditures into the Florida economy in 2008, arts and culture are sound investments in Florida’s future. In the pages to follow, you will read about the many ways that arts and culture are good news for those looking to strengthen Florida’s economy. Leaders in Florida are supportive of arts and culture because they have helped to bring new businesses and ventures to our state. In today’s competitive global marketplace, arts and culture can play an important role in attracting high-wage jobs and a creative workforce. The Arts and Economic Prosperity III expands that notion. Not only can the cultural industry play its important part in attracting business critical to economic recovery, this industry contributes directly to economic activity, supports jobs, and returns revenue to local and state government. The return on investment number speaks for itself.

  • Land Use 95% Draft
    SUPPORTING DATA 2020 UPDATE 4 Land Use 95% Draft Future Land Use Supporting Data The purpose of the Land Use Element is to describe the existing and future land use patterns to be developed on the University and to address how this land use pattern will be coordinated with what is planned by the host community. 1. Inventory and Analysis of Existing Conditions The existing land use pattern at the Florida State University Main Campus has evolved over the years as a series of reactions to imposed conditions. The original historic campus was a self-contained community in that all functions (academic, residential, recreation, food service, etc.) were contained within a comfortable walking distance. As the University grew westward down the hill toward undeveloped fields and woods, major construction developed along a linear spine parallel to Tennessee Street, and along and on both sides of Call Street. This development pattern occurred largely in responses to the occurrence of low elevations at the southwest corner of the site, (a portion ow which lies within the 100-year flood plain) which created unfavorable building conditions. Also, building sites tended to follow a ridgeline from the Westcott Building north, then west between Call Street and Tennessee Street. Additionally, the intrusion of the automobile has resulted in the disruption of the pedestrian environment within the central or core campus and some choice parcels are being utilized as parking lots. An inventory of FSU’s properties, including the Main Campus, other parcels in Tallahassee/Leon County, and other parcels throughout the state is shown in Table 4.1.

  • Asolo Repertory Theatre Presents an Fsu/Asolo Conservatory for Actor Training Touring Production of Julius Caesar
    JULIUS CAESAR Page 1 of 5 ***For Immediate Release*** September 5, 2017 ASOLO REPERTORY THEATRE PRESENTS AN FSU/ASOLO CONSERVATORY FOR ACTOR TRAINING TOURING PRODUCTION OF JULIUS CAESAR (SARASOTA, September 5, 2017) — Asolo Rep proudly presents an FSU/Asolo Conservatory for Actor Training touring production of William Shakespeare's JULIUS CAESAR. The eighth annual educational touring production will be helmed by New York- based director and Joseph Jefferson Award-winner James Dean Palmer and adapted by Tyler Dobrowsky. This fresh 45-minute take on one of Shakespeare's most enduring classics will tour schools and community venues throughout Sarasota and the state of Florida, from Tallahassee to Miami, from September 27 through November 20, 2017. There will be a special performance for educators, press, and the public on Friday, September 29 at 5:30pm in the Cook Theatre, located in the FSU Center for the Performing Arts. Set in the 1980s — a decade marred by greed and indulgence — this fast and fiery adaptation transforms Julius Caesar from Roman politician and general to preeminent Wall Street powerbroker betrayed by his most trusted associates. The consequences of his murder spiral into the streets in a vicious war for control, honor and survival. JULIUS CAESAR endures as a provocative examination of personal responsibility against the backdrop of great political consequences. Adapter Tyler Dobrowsky is the Associate Artistic Director of Trinity Rep, where he has directed productions of A Midsummer Night’s Dream, Julius Caesar, A Flea in Her Ear, It’s A Wonderful Life: A Live Radio Play, Love Alone (a world premiere with the playwright Deb Salem Smith) and A Christmas Carol.

    THE MUSIC MAN Page 1 of 10 **FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE** October 11, 2018 Asolo Repertory Theatre Announces Complete Casting for THE MUSIC MAN; Runs November 13 - December 29; Directed by Tony® Nominee Jeff Calhoun Publicity Photos/Head shots for Download Behind the Scenes Video for Download (SARASOTA, October 11, 2018) — Asolo Rep proudly kicks off its 60th season with a highly imaginative production of Meredith Willson's Tony Award-winning exuberant masterpiece THE MUSIC MAN. Directed by Tony nominee Jeff Calhoun (Newsies), this tap dancing-infused production stars legendary Broadway song and dance man Noah Racey as Harold Hill. Calhoun and Racey previously collaborated on the smash hit world premiere of Noah Racey's Pulse at Asolo Rep in 2013. The perfect family holiday outing, THE MUSIC MAN begins previews on November 13, opens November 17 and runs through December 29 in the Mertz Theatre, located in the FSU Center for the Performing Arts. Smooth-talking swindler Harold Hill brings trouble to idyllic River City, Iowa when he comes to town with the ultimate sham. But his plan to trick the townspeople into buying musical instruments for a band that doesn't exist is unexpectedly stifled when he falls head over heels for Marian the librarian. The original Broadway production garnered six Tony Awards, including Best Musical — beating out West Side Story — and remains a beloved musical masterpiece. THE MUSIC MAN features Willson's iconic snap-crackle-pop vocal arrangements, considered to be the Broadway precursors to rap, and the most celebrated songs in the musical theatre canon, including Ya Got Trouble, Seventy-Six Trombones, Goodnight My Someone and Till There Was You.

    ***For Immediate Release*** March 1, 2016 ASOLO REP PROUDLY PRESENTS DISGRACED; AYAD AKHTAR'S THRILLING TONY® NOMINATED AND PULITZER PRIZE-WINNING DRAMA OPENS APRIL 1 (SARASOTA, March 1, 2016) — Asolo Rep continues its record-breaking 2015-2016 season and the fourth season of its five-year American Character Project with the thrilling and poignant Tony nominated and Pulitzer Prize-winning drama: DISGRACED. Penned by Ayad Akhtar, the critically acclaimed play premiered on Broadway in 2014. Directed by Asolo Rep Producing Artistic Director Michael Donald Edwards, DISGRACED previews March 30 and 31 at 8pm, opens Friday, April 1 at 8pm and runs through Sunday, April 24 in the Historic Asolo Theater, located in the Ringling Visitors Pavilion. Hailed by the New York Times as "terrific and turbulent, with fresh currents of dramatic electricity," DISGRACED tells the story of Amir Kapoor, a brilliant, successful Muslim- American attorney who has turned his back on his faith in order to thrive in post-9/11 Manhattan. On the surface, he has it all — a beautiful wife, a swanky apartment and a lucrative career. But the charmed life he so artfully constructed is in jeopardy when a dinner party turns tumultuous and the guests' ideals of culture, marriage, career and family collide. Dorien Makhloghi, who has appeared on Broadway in The Merchant of Venice and Off- Broadway in The Merchant of Venice, Twelfth Night, The Oedipus Cycle, and more, stars as Amir Kapoor. Lee Stark plays his wife Emily, the role she originated at the American Theater Company's world premiere of DISGRACED. New York City-based actor Bianca Jones, who was recently seen in King Lear at the Chicago Shakespeare Theater, plays Amir's co-worker Jory.
