Fields and Jerome Chodorov. Based on the stories of “The New Yorker” writer Ruth McKenney, it was to be a ve- hicle for the great stage and screen star Rosalind Russell. But there was a catch. Because of Miss Russell’s schedule, they had to go into rehearsal in 5 weeks. They needed a composer. Who could do it in such a short time?? They knew of a long- shot. Their pal, Leonard Bernstein, had just returned from his honeymoon and he was supposed to be taking a little time off….

    PRELUDE, FUGUE News for Friends of Leonard Bernstein RIFFS Fall/Winter 2003/2004 The Big Day: Memories of a Historic Debut 'he Big Day: November 14, 2003 marks the sixtieth anniversary of Leonard TBernstein's now famous conducting debut with the New York Philharmonic at Carnegie Hall. It is by now the stuff of leg­ end, yet it was really quite simple. Bruno Walter, the scheduled con­ ductor of the New York Philharmonic, was too ill to per­ form, and so his assistant conduc­ tor was called upon to conduct. For some reason this rarely hap­ pens; when it does, the occasion is usually unremarkable. This time was an exception. The best way to tell the story is through Bernstein himself, and a few of his fellow musicians. From the Podium: Lenny Remembers In what would prove to be of those days.

The Shaw Festival’s mandate also includes: • Uncovered Gems – digging up undiscovered theatrical treasures, or plays which were considered major works when they were written but which have since been unjustly neglected • American Classics – we continue to celebrate the best of American theatre • Musicals – rarely-performed musicals from the period of our mandate are rediscov- ered and returned to the stage WHAT MAKES THE • Canadian Works – to allow us to hear and promote our own stories, our own points SHAW SPECIAL of view about the mandate period. MEET THE COMPANY — OUR ENSEMBLE • Our Actors: All Shaw performers contribute to the sense of ensemble, much like the players in an orchestra. Often, smaller parts are played by actors who are leading performers in their own right, but in our “orchestra,” they support the central ac- tion helping to create a density of experiences that are both subtle and informative.

  • Betty Garrett, an Appreciation
    Betty Garrett—An appreciation By Ron Rapoport In 1946, shortly after Betty Garrett became a musical comedy star on Broadway overnight, Nathaniel Benchley wrote this in the New York Herald-Tribune: “Would anybody like a punch in the nose? Very well, buster, all you have to do is say you didn’t like Betty Garrett in ‘Call Me Mister.’ Aha, I thought so.” That set the tone for the belligerence Betty’s friends and fans often brought to their devotion to her that lasted until her death February 12 at the age of 91. Whether they discovered her in the classic musicals from MGM’s Golden Age, her key roles in two of television’s greatest hits or during a theater career that culminated in an L.A. Stage Ovation Award nomination at the age of 90, many of them claimed her with an almost personal pride of possession. At an appearance in a theater in Boca Raton, Fla., in the ‘90s, for instance, a man called out from the audience that he had been a waiter at Camp Tamiment in the Poconos 60 years earlier and had danced with her in one of its variety shows. Betty called him up to the stage where he demonstrated that he remembered the lyrics of their number down to the last syllable. Betty told marvelous stories—Louis B. Mayer poking her in the chest, stomping on her feet and warning her not to get pregnant because it upset the shooting schedule; Frank Sinatra needing padding to fill out the rear end of his sailor suit in “On the Town”—but also, and I think this helps explain the admiration so many people had for her, she was resilient in ways that took your breath away.
