By David James Poissant UCF Forum columnist Wednesday, July 31, 2019 A scene from the musical Chicago. (Photo by Jerry Daniel) In my favorite Simpsons episode, “A Fish Called Selma,” the family attends a musical adaptation of Planet of the Apes called Stop the Planet of the Apes, I Want to Get Off! The production is parody-perfect, replete with lines like, “I hate every ape I see / from chimpan-A to chimpan-Z.” Partway through the performance, a wild-eyed Bart Simpson says, “This play has everything!” to which an oblivious Homer replies, “I love legitimate theater.” The joke here, of course, is that anything as crass and commercially motivated as a Planet of the Apes musical can’t possibly be art.

    ABSTRACT FINDING THE RHYTHMS AND THE ACCIDENTAL POETRY: ANNIE BAKER AND THE CONDITION OF A CONTEMPORARY FEMALE PLAYWRIGHT by Zachary Elijah Dailey This creative thesis in directing is a three part study into the critical and commercial success of Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright Annie Baker, the first realist female playwright to win one of the theatre’s highest honors in a quarter of a century. This thesis was accompanied by the Walking Theatre Project’s 2015 production of Body Awareness on campus at Miami University. Focusing on Baker’s life and works, this thesis locates the playwright within the shifting tides of feminist theory in the contemporary world of theatre.

  • Impact Stories
    Our Impact: Playwright Success Stories A Few of the Bright Spots [from over 500] LIZ DUFFY ADAMS Playwrights Foundation helped to launch Liz’s career shortly after she graduated from Yale School of Drama. In 2002, her seminal work, Dog Act was developed on the Bay Area Playwrights Festival (BAPF) and then went on to its 2004 premiere in the Bay Area - with Playwrights Foundation (PF) and Shotgun Players in Berkeley, CA, winning the 2005 Glickman Award for the Bay Area’s Best New Play. The play has since been produced in San Diego, Los Angeles, New York, Massachusetts, Winnipeg, and dozens of other cities. Her next play One Big Lie was co-commissioned by Crowded Fire Theater (CFT) and PF as part of our Producing Partnership Initiative (PPI). The play received a year of development in our studio, culminating in the BAPF in 2004, and subsequently premiered in 2005 in a highly-acclaimed production at CFT. Her play The Listener was developed in PF’s Rough Readings Series (RRS), premiered in a PPI with Crowded Fire in 2008, and went on to productions in Portland and San Diego. And, her play The Train Play was chosen as part of PF’s Des Voix Festival for a French translation and reading in Paris in 2014. Subsequently, as a result of our support, Liz landed her first New York premiere for Or, at the Women’s Project, which has been produced some 50 times since. Liz’s plays have continued to live on stages nation-wide, including the Magic Theater and Seattle Rep, and won her honors including a Women of Achievement Award, a Lillian Hellman Award, and the Will Glickman Award.

One of the ways in which Baker creates this contrast is through the repetition of sounds from François Truffaut’s 1962 French film Jules and Jim in The Flick. This repetition causes us to ask ourselves as audience members – why is this particular movie referred to so many times over the course of the play? One clue to this can be found by examining the similarities and differences between the two works. Both stories depict characters searching for happiness. Both follow two men and a woman as their lives intertwine. Both depict versions of love and betrayal. Still, there are differences. Truffaut’s lead characters, all white, magically seem to have enough money to support their lives in country cabins and Parisian apartments as writers. They both have a passionate sexual relationship with the same woman, and both relationships fail spectacularly in different ways.
