We l c o m e t o

Dear Friends,

One of the joys of presenting a season of plays is to offer world premiere productions of texts that go on to enjoy abundant lives in the American theatre. Just as rewarding is the opportunity to call attention to plays which have not received the appreciation due them. Richard Greenberg’s The Violet Hour received glowing reviews in its first two regional productions. Then, despite best efforts and intentions, it suffered through a snake-bit New York staging in which much of what could go wrong did. Of Mr. Greenberg’s 25 plays, it is one of his very best, and we’re delighted to bring it to you. Harry Kondoleon was one of the last half-century’s most original American playwriting voices. His body of work, cut short by his death at age 39 in 1994, was full of heart and humanity. Christmas on Mars shows him to best advantage.

The Old Globe has enjoyed a celebrated reputation for artistic success and community support over the past 70 years. Our community has helped the Globe raise the necessary funds over the years to rebuild our theatres after two devastating fires, to expand our educational programming to reach more than 40,000 young people annual- ly, and to launch 17 Broadway-bound world premieres in the last 20 years. These accomplishments would not have been possible without the support of our donors and subscribers, whose gifts and belief in the Globe over decades have sustained us. We cherish that support.

As we look toward our 75th anniversary in 2010, we recognize the importance of securing the long-term artistic and financial stability of this organization. To that end, we recently launched a major campaign to raise $75 mil- lion in the next five years.

Announced on March 16 with commitments of more than $42 million, this campaign has been led by landmark gifts of $20 million from Donald and Darlene Shiley and $10 million from Conrad Prebys. We are extremely grateful and humbled by this unprecedented philanthropy, which ranks at the very top of support given to arts organizations in San Diego and throughout the country. While these extraordinary contributions – which are ear- marked for facilities, endowment and special projects – are critical to the long-term health of the Theatre, they do not lighten our need for, and the importance of, each and every gift given by donors to the annual fund.

We greatly appreciate your continued purchase of tickets and your contributions, so that the Globe can continue to offer world-class performances and education programs now and for many years to come.

Students Experience the Magic of Theatre Through “All The World’s A Stage”

In 1994, two teenage Australian boys killed a motorist by playing a game of kicking stones from a freeway overpass. Their tragic and compelling story led to the writing of one of the most engaging plays ever written for young people. In October, the Globe will offer a touring production of the award-winning play, The Stones, to reach more than 6,000 middle- and high-school students throughout San Diego County. The Stones “is an extraordinary two-man show for teenage audiences,” wrote . Australian artists Stefo Nantsou and Tom Lycos have created a wildly imaginative, entertaining and thought-provoking work that offers no easy answers; the play empowers young people to think about consequences of their decisions. As part of “All The World’s A Stage,” the Globe’s production of The Stones will be inventively staged as the actors shift seamlessly between adult and teen characters in this powerful piece. Teachers can access the online study guide to promote classroom discussion of issues – responsibility, peer pressure, and human rights – raised by the play. To schedule a performance for your school or community site, please contact Raúl Moncada via email at [email protected] or call (619) 238-0043 x2141.

We are pleased you have joined us for another memorable production in our celebratory 70th Anniversary year. By now you have certainly heard the exciting news of our $75 million Capital Campaign, “Securing a San Diego Landmark,” and we couldn’t be more pleased with the community’s early response in helping launch this endeavor. Ensuring the Theatre’s long-term stability is the primary goal of this campaign and will be achieved through three areas; 1) an enhanced endowment; 2) new and improved facilities; and 3) increased support for special artistic projects. However, during this campaign for facilities and endowment, it’s imperative to keep in mind the Globe must still raise $7 million annually to produce some of the highest quality theatre performances in the country. Now more than ever, your annual contribution is needed, and I hope you’ll consider increasing your support of San Diego’s great artistic landmark. I am honored to serve as Chair of The Old Globe’s Board of Directors, and on behalf of the Board of Directors, I thank you for mak- ing the Globe a part of your life.

PERFORMANCES MAGAZINE P13 THE CRAIG NOEL LEAGUE Paving a Bright Future for The Old Globe Through Planned Gifts

Jeanette Stevens is an energetic supporter of San Diego’s performing and visual arts. Jeanette has still-vivid memories of seeing children’s theatre productions presented at the Goodman Theatre in Chicago when she was just a child. She moved to San Diego in 1956 and was soon introduced to the Globe. At first, she attended occasional pro- ductions; however, today she is hooked on The Old Globe. She is active in the com- munity, supporting many other cultural organizations including La Jolla Music Society, the San Diego Museum of Art, and many of San Diego’s dance companies. When thinking about performances at The Old Globe, Jeanette easily recalls memories of seeing A Midsummer Night’s Dream and The Tempest in the Lowell Davies Festival Theatre and having the feeling of “being transported to wonderful new worlds.” She remains strongly connected to the Globe, feeling that the theatre is like family to her. “I’m always made to feel an integral, intimate part of the Globe family and enjoy a myriad of exciting experiences, exchanges and, of course, the rich variety of theatre offered throughout the year.” In addition to Globe performances, Jeanette regularly attends the theatre’s Insights Seminars to gain a deeper understanding of the plays being presented. She is committed to “creatively expanding opportunities for children JEANETTE STEVENS IN STRATFORD-UPON-AVON to learn about theatre” through the Globe’s award-winning education programs. Jeanette became a member of the Craig Noel League, the theatre’s planned giving society, in June of 2004 because she “fervently believes in the concept of endowment, of investment in, and commitment to what I love, and to that which give me such boundless joy and delight.” Thank you, Jeanette, for your encouragement and inspiration. Many thoughtful friends are helping to secure The Old Globe’s future by leaving gifts in their wills and estate plans. We hope you might also be so moved to join them in helping to sustain the theatrical excellence of The Old Globe for years to come. We’d love to hear from you, so that we might recognize your generosity and thoughtfulness through membership in the Craig Noel League, our planned giving society. For information on leaving a lasting gift to the Globe, or to speak with one of our estate advisors, please con- tact Brad Ballard at (619) 231-1941 x2309 or via e-mail at [email protected].

CRAIG NOEL, Founding Director During Craig Noel's distinguished 67-year career with The Old Globe, the much-honored director has staged over 225 productions of all styles and periods. Craig has been associated with The Old Globe since its community-theatre inception in 1937 when he made his debut as an . Two years later he accepted his first directorial assignments, staging four of the season's seven productions. Since then, Craig has guided the organization through its metamorphosis from a community theatre of the highest standards to one of the nation's most successful not-for profit theatres. In doing so, he has enriched the quality of life in San Diego for generations of citizens who have become today's theatre-goers and arts supporters.

P14 PERFORMANCES MAGAZINE CITY OF SAN DIEGO: MAJOR PLAYER IN THE FUNDING OF ARTS & CULTURE

Each year, the City of San Diego provides critical financial support to 83 organizations through a rigorous application process managed by the Commission for Arts and Culture. Through this program, the City is The Old Globe’s largest single supporter of annual artistic projects and education programming for schools. City funding for arts and culture is derived from the Transient Occupancy Tax (TOT), a 10.5% tax paid by tourists visiting San Diego. The city allocates less than 1 cent of the 10.5 cents collected in TOT (hotel tax) to the Commission for Arts and Culture for distribution to non-profit organizations. Each year the Commission appoints community volunteers to evaluate organizations – alongside the Commissioners themselves – based on artistic programming, educational activities, administrative stability, board leadership and programs for underserved populations. TOT funding of arts and culture yields positive results for the entire community. In 2006, the 83 funded organizations have combined operating budgets of more than $120 million and have an enormous economic impact on the region. The Old Globe alone produces an economic impact of more than $42 million on the City of San Diego with $8.6 million generated by cultural tourists attending the summer Shakespeare Festival. The Old Globe applauds the City of San Diego and the Commission for Arts and Culture for their vision for a vibrant and successful San Diego.

STUDY SHOWS SAN DIEGANS WILLING TO PAY TAXES TO FUND ARTS The Arts & Culture Working Group of The San Diego Foundation has released the results of a comprehensive study of cultural participation in the San Diego region as part of the Foundation’s “Understanding the San Diego Region” initia- tive. Some key findings of the report, entitled “pARTicipate San Diego: The Case for Increased Patronage for Arts and Culture in the San Diego Region” include the following:

— The region places high priority on increasing arts education — San Diego’s arts and culture community is under-funded — Cultural participation needs to be deepened and expanded — Two-thirds of San Diegans would be willing to pay more taxes to support arts and culture On the last point, the survey found that a majority of respondents would pay tax at both the $5 level and the $25 level, if they knew the revenues would directly benefit arts and culture activities and facilities.
