Without them this show would not have existed as it did and would not have been such a wonderful experience. I would like to thank Michael Rupert for trusting me when I needed him to and Ms. Roe Green for getting us all together in the first place. I would also like to thank my projections programmer, Cyndi Hoffman, and my design assistant, Daniel Ebert, for their dedication, valued opinions, and unrelenting sarcasm. I must also acknowledge what a supportive and challenging team my thesis committee has been throughout this process: Raynette Halvorsen Smith, Jakyung Seo, and Dr. Yuko Kurahashi. Additionally, I would like to say a special thank you to the 2012 Kent M.F.A. class – you adopted me and helped keep me on this path – and to the many family and friends who have supported me over the past three years. vii 1 CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION Kent State University produced Spring Awakening during the 2012-2013 academic year under the auspices of the Roe Green Visiting Director Series. The Series celebrated its tenth year with this production, and to commemorate the event Tony- winner Michael Rupert was invited to direct the endeavor. The production team consisted of Lighting Designer Jakyung Seo (Assistant Professor of Lighting), Costume Designer Susan Williams (a graduate student in Costuming), Sound Designer Brian Chismar (a senior undergraduate student), and Stage Manager Kelly Cosgrove (another senior undergraduate student). The show was performed in the E.Turner Stump Theater, a 506- seat proscenium space, from February 15, 2013 through February 24, 2013. Spring Awakening is based on a German drama entitled Frühlings Erwachen, or The Awakening of Spring: A Children’s Tragedy written between 1890 and 1891 by Benjamin Franklin Wedekind. This modern adaptation was conceived by Duncan Sheik and Steven Sater in the late 1990s. It was work-shopped for seven years in theaters across the United States from the La Jolla Playhouse to the Baruch College in New York.1 The world

    www.theatreguide.com.au Supporting live theatre in Adelaide PO Box 10278 [email protected] ADELAIDE BC SA 5000 ABN : 93 297 960 525 THE PRODUCERS Matt Byrne Media Arts Theatre Until 4 August 2007 (Shedley Theatre 9-11 August) Review by John Wells I could smell hubris in the air. An Adelaide company doing “The Producers” – the Mel Brooks show that took Broadway by the scruff of its neck and was showered with Tonys? Could an Adelaide amateur company do this show? Attempting a production of this impeccable and brilliantly-credentialed show is remarkably ambitious. With two films and the wildly successful stage musical already seared into the public consciousness, it is impossible to create an original rendering. Add to this the limited budget of amateur theatre and the risks of presenting a spectacular dud are high. But this is no dud. “The Producers” is by no means perfect, but it is an enjoyable, tight and funny show. With disciplined performances, and comical and precise characterisations, Director Glenn Vallen must take the credit for the success of this production. “The Producers” is the story of the failed, bombastic Broadway producer Max Bialystock and his mousy accountant Leo Bloom. They plan to raise millions of dollars to produce a sure-fire flop, and then run off with the investors’ cash when the show closes. When they find “Springtime for Hitler”, a musical honouring the Fuhrer by a local Nazi, they think they’ve found their perfect turkey. “The Producers” depends primarily on Bialystock and Bloom. If they are ineffective, the show cannot succeed.

  • YMTC to Present the Rock Musical Rent, November 3–10 in El Cerrito
    Youth Musical Theater Company FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Press Inquiries: Laura Soble/YMTC Phone 510-595-5514 Email: [email protected] Website: https://www.ymtcbayarea.org YMTC to Present the Rock Musical Rent, November 3–10 in El Cerrito Berkeley, California, September 27, 2019—Youth Musical Theater Company (YMTC) will launch its 15th season of acclaimed regional theater with the rock musical Rent. The show opens Sunday, November 3, at the Performing Arts Theater, 540 Ashbury Ave., El Cerrito. Its run consists of a 5:00 p.m. opening (11/3), two 2:00 p.m. matinees (11/9, 11/10), and three 7:30 p.m. performances (11/7, 11/8, 11/9). Rent is a rock opera loosely based on Puccini’s La Boheme, with music, lyrics, and book by Jonathan Larson. Set in Lower Manhattan’s East Village during the turmoil of the AIDS crisis, this moving story chronicles the lives of a group of struggling artists over a year’s time. Its major themes are community, friendship, and survival. In 1996, Rent received four Tony Awards, including Best Musical; six Drama Desk Awards; and the Pulitzer Prize for Drama. In 1997, it won the Grammy Award for Best Musical Show Album. Its Broadway run lasted 12 years. Co-Director Jennifer Boesing comments, “Rent is a love story and a bold, brazen manifesto for young artists who are trying not just to stay alive, but to stay connected to each other, when the mainstream culture seems to be ignoring signs of destruction all around them. Although the show today is a period piece about a very specific historical moment—well before the earliest memories of our young performing artists—they relate to it deeply just the same.
