  • PATRICIA GETS an ASSIGNMENT by Vik
    1/1 PATRICIA GETS AN ASSIGNMENT By Vik Chapter 1 – A New Assignment Patty heard the phone ring and cursed. She had just laid out a print to dry on the fiberglass screen and her hands were still wet. She switched on the white light, pulled a paper towel from the roll holder on the wall, wiped her hands, opened the door and strode to the phone in the living room. “Yes?” she asked in a disgruntled tone. “Miss Brewster, this is Andrew Stelling at Adventure Travel. You don’t know me but we’ve had excellent references of you as a photographer. My agency has some original plans for some very special ecological tours. We’ll be having a special ad campaign and I thought that if we could come to a mutually agreeable arrangement perhaps you’d like to take the pho- tographs for us.” Patty’s mind started racing. She remarked on the emphasis he had placed on “very.” As a free-lancer she needed any job she could get; on the other hand that bit about “…a mutu- ally agreeable arrangement…” sounded like Mr. Stelling’s travel agency was not willing to pay too much. She decided to play hard to get. “Thank you very much, Mr. Stelling, but right now I was working in the darkroom. I only have five prints finished and I have to deliver those plus another twenty tomorrow morning at 8 AM. I can’t take the time now to discuss your project but if you’d be good enough to give me your phone number I’d be glad to call you back tomorrow afternoon.” “That’ll be fine, Miss Brewster, my number is 555-4936.

  • South Coast Repertory Is a Professional Resident Theatre Founded in 1964 by David Emmes and Martin Benson
    IN BRIEF FOUNDING South Coast Repertory is a professional resident theatre founded in 1964 by David Emmes and Martin Benson. VISION Creating the finest theatre in America. LEADERSHIP SCR is led by Artistic Director David Ivers and Managing Director Paula Tomei. Its 33-member Board of Trustees is made up of community leaders from business, civic and arts backgrounds. In addition, hundreds of volunteers assist the theatre in reaching its goals, and about 2,000 individuals and businesses contribute each year to SCR’s annual and endowment funds. MISSION South Coast Repertory was founded in the belief that theatre is an art form with a unique power to illuminate the human experience. We commit ourselves to exploring urgent human and social issues of our time, and to merging literature, design, and performance in ways that test the bounds of theatre’s artistic possibilities. We undertake to advance the art of theatre in the service of our community, and aim to extend that service through educational, intercultural, and community engagement programs that harmonize with our artistic mission. FACILITY/ The David Emmes/Martin Benson Theatre Center is a three-theatre complex. Prior to the pandemic, there were six SEASON annual productions on the 507-seat Segerstrom Stage, four on the 336-seat Julianne Argyros Stage, with numerous workshops and theatre conservatory performances held in the 94-seat Nicholas Studio. In addition, the three-play family series, “Theatre for Young Audiences,” produced on the Julianne Argyros Stage. The 20-21 season includes two virtual offerings and a new outdoors initiative, OUTSIDE SCR, which will feature two productions in rotating rep at the Mission San Juan Capistrano in July 2021.

  • 1 Forever Alone in a Crowd, Arthur Fleck Seeks Connection. Yet, As He
    Forever alone in a crowd, Arthur Fleck seeks connection. Yet, as he trods the sooted Gotham City streets and rides the graffitied mass transit rails of a hostile town teeming with division and dissatisfaction, Arthur wears two masks. One, he paints on for his day job as a clown. The other he can never remove; it’s the guise he projects in a futile attempt to feel he’s a part of the world around him, and not the misunderstood man whom life is repeatedly beating down. Fatherless, Arthur has a fragile mother, arguably his best friend, who nicknamed him Happy, a moniker that’s fostered in Arthur a smile that hides the heartache beneath. But, when bullied by teens on the streets, taunted by suits on the subway, or simply teased by his fellow clowns at work, this social outlier only becomes even more out of sync with everyone around him. Directed, co-written and produced by Todd Phillips, “Joker” is the filmmaker’s original vision of the infamous DC villain, an origin story infused with, but distinctly outside, the character’s more traditional mythologies. Phillips’ exploration of Arthur Fleck, who is indelibly portrayed by Joaquin Phoenix, is of a man struggling to find his way in Gotham’s fractured society. Longing for any light to shine on him, he tries his hand as a stand-up comic, but finds the joke always seems to be on him. Caught in a cyclical existence between apathy and cruelty and, ultimately, betrayal, Arthur makes one bad decision after another that brings about a chain reaction of escalating events in this gritty, allegorical character study.

Mobile aquariums, the color TV of 1890’s Russia, white period furniture floating on a high gloss black floor, cascading light bulbs, a heightened Edwardian fashion sensibility and Gypsy music all pay homage to Chekhov’s own desire to have symbol and metaphor more fully represent the world of his plays.
