  • 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.

  • Zap Teachers' Guide • a Play by Paul Fleischman
    CANDLEWICK PRESS Zap Teachers’ Guide • A play by Paul Fleischman THE PLAYWRIGHT Born in Monterey, California, the son of a well-known children’s book writer, Paul Fleischman grew up with stories and fell in love with words at a very early age. Yet he never really planned to be a writer. He explored various jobs, including short stints as a carpenter and a bagel baker. He eventually returned to the world of words by becoming a bookstore clerk and library aide. Then fond memories of his youth, when his father, Sid Fleischman, read aloud stories fresh from his typewriter, made Fleishman realize that writing might be a suitable career for him. He began to combine his love of music, his devotion to the past, and his keen interest in exploring new styles of writing into books for children and young adults. Joyful Noise: Poems for Two Voices won the Newbery Medal in 1989 and was performed on public radio. Zap is his first play. ABOUT THE PLAY 0-7636-2774-7 Zap leads readers, actors, and audiences on a wild and hilarious ride through theater history as seven plays collide to form an unforgettable spoof on life and social BEFORE READING THE PLAY conflict.
