We all want to be free. But finding true freedom within our communities, within our families and within ourselves is no easy task. Nor is it easy to reconcile our own freedom with the political, religious and cultural freedoms of others. Happily, the conflict created by our search for freedom makes for great theatre... Shakespeare’s The Tempest, in which I’m delighted to direct Martha Henry, is a play about the yearning to be released from

CLASSICCLASSI FILMS imprisonment, as revenge and forgiveness vie OscarWildeCinema.com TM for the upper hand in Prospero’s heart. Erin Shields’s exciting new interpretation of Milton’s Paradise Lost takes an ultra- contemporary look at humanity’s age-old desire for free will – and the consequences of acting on it. I’m very proud that we have the internationally renowned Robert Lepage with us directing Shakespeare’s Coriolanus, a play about early Roman democracy. It is as important to understanding the current state of our democratic institutions as is Shakespeare’s play about the end of the Roman Republic, Julius Caesar. Recent events have underlined the need for the iconic story To Kill a Mockingbird to be told, as a powerful reminder that there can be no freedom without justice. Freedom is no less central to our two musicals: in The Music Man, freedom of expression through the arts brings joy and self-discovery into the hearts of young people, while the raucous fun of The Rocky Horror Show celebrates the joy of simply being oneself, without judgment. Sometimes freedom comes in finding our other half, as in Shakespeare’sThe Comedy of Errors or Oscar Wilde’s brilliant An Ideal Husband. Other times our families make our own individual dreams elusive, as in Eugene O’Neill’s great play Long Day’s Journey Into Night or Jordi Mand’s engrossing new work about three famous literary sisters, Brontë: The World Without. Finally, I’m thrilled to direct John Murrell’s new translation of Eduardo De Filippo’s comic masterpiece Napoli Milionaria!, in which a family faces the greatest threat to our freedom – our CINEPLEX EVENTS desire for money. The extraordinarily talented 2018 Stratford Festival company is eager to bring these stories to OPERA | DANCE | STAGE | GALLERY | CLASSIC FILMS vibrant life for you.

It was a strategy that back into Roman history, finding parallels allowed him to keep his drama at least between then and now. The upheavals notionally removed from the swirling of the Reformation decades earlier, for waters of Elizabethan politics, and one example, had “freed” their nation of the probably encouraged by Edmund Tilney Catholic church, much as Rome had freed and, after him, George Buc, the courtiers itself from the Etruscans.

THE STORY Returning victorious from a civil war against the forces of his rival general and statesman Pompey, Julius Caesar is welcomed in Rome with tremendous popular acclaim. His friend and comrade Mark Antony publicly offers him a crown, much to the alarm of a group of senators, including Caius Cassius and Marcus Brutus, who perceive Caesar’s political ambitions as a threat to Rome’s republican system of government. Torn between his own friendship for Caesar and his concern for Rome, Brutus is eventually persuaded to join in a plan to assassinate Caesar before he can become a tyrant. However, the consequences of this intervention prove calamitous, leading to another civil war that must decide the fate of the Republic.

As Brutus they are the bearers of truth, yet they describes it, we’re all trying to climb either can’t trust that truth or lack agency that ladder, envying those above us and to promote it. The men, by contrast, are disdaining those below. constantly in error – and the consequences are disastrous. Their ladder leads to chaos. It’s a very masculine view of the world: one in which everything is a competition, Shakespeare isn’t pitting one gender an encounter of wills. And I think that’s against the other here: it’s the fetishization what western civilization – from ancient of a masculine system of values he’s Roman times to today – has done with the critiquing, not maleness per se. Nor does public discourse: we’ve framed it in purely he let individual women off the hook.

13 PLAYWRIGHT WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE

Born in Stratford-upon-Avon in 1564, William Shakespeare was the eldest son of John Shakespeare, a glover and tanner who rose to become an alderman and bailiff of the town, and Mary Arden, the daughter of a wealthy farmer. The exact date of his birth is unknown, but there is a record of his baptism at Stratford’s Holy Trinity Church on April 26. Since an interval of two or three days between birth and baptism would have been quite common, tradition has it that he was born on April 23 – the same date as his death fifty-two years later. The young Shakespeare is assumed to have attended what is now King Edward VI Grammar School in Stratford, where he would have studied rhetoric, grammar and ancient Roman literature in its original Latin. In 1582, when he was eighteen, he married Anne Hathaway, a farmer’s daughter who was eight years his senior. Anne was pregnant at the time, and the couple’s first daughter, Susanna, was born By 1595, Shakespeare was back in the a few months afterwards in 1583.

30 THE SECOND TRACK In 2018, with the permission of Canadian Actors’ Equity Association, 11 members of our acting company are devoting part of their season’s work to a program of artistic exploration known as the “Second Track.” This program is conducted under the auspices of the Laboratory, the Stratford Festival’s research and development initiative.

THE BIRMINGHAM CONSERVATORY FOR CLASSICAL THEATRE Stephen Ouimette leads this intensive professional training program that nurtures talented young actors for a future in classical theatre. Selected by audition, participants are usually graduates of an accredited theatre training program who have at least two years’ professional experience. Upon completion of the program – which includes, among other activities, classes in voice, movement and text with Festival coaches and distinguished guest instructors – participants are offered places in the following season’s acting company. Twenty-seven members of this season’s company are past participants. The Birmingham Conservatory for Classical Theatre is made possible by the support of the Birmingham family, the Stratford Festival Endowment Foundation and the Department of Canadian Heritage. The 2018 in-season work of Conservatory participants is supported by the Marilyn & Charles Baillie Fund, by the Chicago Associates of the Stratford Festival and by John & Therese Gardner. Coriolanus
