BERNHARDT/HAMLET by Theresa Rebeck Directed by Moritz Von Stuelpnagel A publication of Photo: Jake Chessum UPSTAGE SPOTLIGHT BERNHARDT/HAMLET By Theresa Rebeck Directed by Moritz von Stuelpnagel Mark Twain wrote: “There are five kinds of actresses: bad actresses, fair actresses, good actresses, great actresses. And then there is Sarah Bernhardt.” In 1897, the international stage celebrity set out to tackle her most ambitious role yet: Hamlet. Theresa Rebeck’s new play rollicks with high comedy and human drama, set against the lavish Shakespearean production that could make or break Bernhardt’s career. Janet McTeer, “one of the finest classical actresses of her generation” (The Telegraph), brings the legendary leading lady to life. A NOTE FROM ARTISTIC DIRECTOR TODD HAIMES Sarah Bernhardt’s real-life portrayal of Hamlet has become a landmark moment in theatre history, but behind every cultural milestone lies immense personal risk. For Bernhardt, then, Hamlet is more than just a role. He is her ultimate challenge and her archnemesis, the only thing standing between her and the promise of true immortality. With piercing wit and fierce humanity, Theresa Rebeck explores the sacrifices necessary to shatter centuries of tradition, take on the untouchable, and command one’s own legacy.

Lindsay McAuliffe, Education Special Projects Intern BERNHARDT/HAMLET UPSTAGE GUIDE 3 INTERVIEW WITH PLAYWRIGHT THERESA REBECK Education Dramaturg Ted Sod spoke with Playwright Theresa Rebeck about her work on Bernhardt/Hamlet. Ted Sod: What inspired you to write Bernhardt/Hamlet? This play was commissioned by Roundabout—are there any specific challenges in writing a commissioned play? Theresa Rebeck: The inspiration happened during a trip to Prague. My family is from Czechia and Slovakia, so we went there to experience the culture for ourselves and encountered those gorgeous prints by Alphonse Mucha. You can actually buy full-size copies of his work at the Mucha museum! We got one of Sarah Bernhardt playing Medea, with her children’s bodies swimming at her feet, that still hangs next to my front door. It used to terrify my children, but they got over it. Her eyes really are so haunting in that poster. As a theatre artist, of course you’re always aware of Sarah Bernhardt, but that poster was the real inspiration for me to write a play about her. Jill Rafson approached me about writing a play for the Roundabout, and when I described my thoughts they immediately commissioned the play. I’m honored that the Roundabout has supported this play—a play about how difficult it is to mount a production in a professional theatre!—and commend them for giving new work an opportunity on the big stage. TS: Will you give us a sense of the kind of research you had to do in order to write this play and how you went about doing it? TR: Unfortunately, film came around right at the end of Sarah’s career, and there’s only one video of her acting—and the video’s quality is really not great—but there is a wealth of resources Theresa Rebeck about her out there (there’s even a book specifically about her playing Hamlet). In my research I also learned about her important collaborations with Edmond Rostand and their relationship. I also TS: Janet McTeer has been cast in the role of Sarah Bernhardt and read a lot of her own writing and included some of it in the play. has been involved in various developmental readings.

  • STATEMENT of PRINCIPLE No One Should Be Forced to Choose
    STATEMENT OF PRINCIPLE No one should be forced to choose between her personal safety and dignity, and her job. But too often in the theater community this is exactly the choice that women must make. Sexual discrimination and harassment and gender-based violence often occur in the intimate and physical context of a theater production. Victims of such conduct face a stark choice between continuing to work in close collaboration with their abuser and quitting the show. Few can afford to give up a job and lose not only income, but also the opportunity for career advancement. There is a sense in the community that it is not necessarily in a victim’s best interest to report abuse because of fear that the response will be insufficient and open her up to retribution. In addition, many instances of abuse happen outside of the physical boundaries of a theater. No theater, union or guild currently takes responsible for handling such cases. However, the two people involved will most likely have to work together the next day or in another production, and the victims are left to deal with the aftermath by themselves. In the face of these realities, victims often choose silence and the abuse is allowed to continue. It is time for the theater community to break its own silence on harassment and abuse and formally address the problem. The reality is that those who behave abusively are generally in positions of power. Artistic directors hold the power to employ, playwrights have hiring approval; removing a director mid-rehearsal puts an entire production in doubt; losing a celebrity from the cast hurts ticket sales.

  • 2020 YEAR in REVIEW Looking Back
    What’s Past is Prologue — Prospero, The Tempest 2020 YEAR IN REVIEW looking back What a year this has been–a year of great change–both for Commonwealth Shakespeare Company and for the world. A year of tumult, transition...of tempests. And a year of opportunity. Our 2020 fiscal year began in October 2019 with two big changes. First, CSC and Babson College were winding down their six-year-long partnership that provided CSC with important support and a home. Second, CSC lost Abigail Rollins, who managed CSC since 2010 and led the Company through substantial growth to financial stability. To balance the disappointment of those losses, we were excited to welcome Adam Sanders— Associate Artistic Director since 2011— as Managing Director to take over Abi’s work and Bryn Boice to take over Adam’s responsibilities as Associate Artistic Director. The team was also eager to relocate the office to Boston and enjoy the amenities of city work-life again! Despite the changes, the future definitely didn’t look dull. Early 2020 saw a screening of our virtual Hamlet 360 at the Moxy Hotel in Boston and plans moving full steam ahead for our annual gala, our Stage2 Shakespeare for Young Audiences’ A Midsummer Night’s Dream, and our 25th anniversary production of Free Shakespeare on the Common, T he Tempest. That all came screeching to a halt in mid-March with the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. As the world around us changed dramatically, we quickly adapted to remote office work and began re-imagining our programs.

  • Ibsen's 'Hedda,' Undergoing Renovation
    ibsen’s ‘hedda,’ undergoing renovation Newsday, September 22, 2004 By Linda Winer Once more into New York’s kitchen-sink theater rides Ivo van Hove, the wild and often wondrous Flemish explorer (some say plunderer) of the hallowed and the classic. Once again, he is the guest of the New York Theatre Workshop, where van Hove, artistic director of Amsterdam’s leading repertory company, has found a home-away for his love-hate adventure with audiences. In 1997, he provoked furious accusations of vandalism and an appreciative Obie Award with a demented but enthralling rethinking of Eugene O’Neill’s problematic “More Stately Mansions.” Two years ago, he was less persuasive at stripping the illusion off “A Streetcar Named Desire” - mostly remembered for a Stanley who held a naked Blanche’s head underwater in a bathtub for a very long time. His prey this time is “Hedda Gabler,” which opened last night in a production that just might bring swing voters to his side. In many ways, this is the least outlandish and most satisfying of the visions he has shared at the Workshop. He plays the text fairly straight, using Christopher Hampton’s translation of Ibsen’s study of the disturbed female of 1890. Characters don’t talk much in gibberish or breathless overlapping speeches. The setting has been updated to a chic contemporary comfort zone, with fashion footwear and a surprisingly congenial modern attitude adjustment. Elizabeth Marvel, who proved she would go to the brink for van Hove as Blanche, has a complex combination of playful eroticism and hysteria as Hedda, the perilously bored new bride of Jason Butler Harner’s handsome but geeky George Tesman.

  • Hedda Gabler Variety, September 20, 2004 by Robert Hofl Er
    hedda gabler Variety, September 20, 2004 By Robert Hofl er A New York Theater Workshop presentation of the play by Henrik Ibsen in a translation by Christopher Hampton. Directed by Ivo van Hove. Berte - Elzbieta Czyzewska Eilert Lovborg - Glenn Fitzgerald George Tesman - Jason Butler Harner Hedda Gabler - Elizabeth Marvel Aunt Julia - Mary Beth Peil Mrs. Elvsted - Ana Reeder Judge Brack - John Douglas Thompson What would have happened to Blanche duBois if Stanley Kowalski had shut up and let her marry Mitch? If you squint real hard at the New York Theater Workshop’s current production, director Ivo van Hove answers that question in his startling, riveting new revival of “Hedda Gabler.” At the risk of putting the bathtub before the bustle, the Blanche connection offers a pretty eccentric take on Henrik Ibsen’s most discontented newlywed. But then, van Hove has made his reputation with revivals that run 180 degrees away from your average, typical interpretation of classic text. Five years ago, he staged “A Streetcar Named Desire” in a bathtub at NYTW. Elizabeth Marvel was his headstrong, sopping-wet Blanche. Curiously, Marvel’s Hedda appears to be a more delicate hot-house fl ower than her Blanche, and she’s even quicker to employ girlish wiles to win a point or protect an inner, vulnerable voice. In recent years, Hedda Gablers like Glenda Jackson and Kate Burton have tended to enter spitting bullets with no apparent need for the old man’s pistols. In Ingmar Bergman’s acclaimed red-box production from the 1970s, Maggie Smith lurched into a series of violent dry-heaves before uttering one word.
