Edition 2 | 2018-2019 Dear Valued Patrons, Happy New Year and welcome to the Saroyan Theatre for the second show of our 18-19 Fresno Lexus Broadway in Fresno season, Roger and Hammerstein’s The King and I. Based on the 2015 Tony Award-winning Lincoln Center Theater production, The King and I is set in 1860’s Bangkok, and features several beloved classic tunes, including “Getting to Know You” and “Something Wonderful” among others. Community involvement has always been a key goal of Fresno Lexus, particularly when it involves our local youth and education. During the engagement of Disney’s The Lion King, we brought several students from Edison High School to The Saroyan to see the show and gave them an insider’s peak on how the show performs a load-in of the sets and other key choreography, making it a very special and exclusive experience. We also had four cast members visit Pinedale Elementary for a “Get Up and Go” session. The Lion King cast members lead an hour long workshop encouraging students to lead healthy and active lifestyles while learning dance sequences inspired by the show’s thrilling production number “He Lives in You.” And finally, we are so excited to continue to work with the Junior Players Foundation, and be making a significant donation in partnership with BroadwayAcross America! We’ll be working on some other exciting programs in 2019 helping our youth in Fresno. Please enjoy tonight’s performance of The King and I, and I will see you later this winter at The Saroyan!

It is a great privilege to gather and share stories on this beautiful territory, which has been the site of human activity — and therefore storytelling — for many thousands of years.

  • Review Essay: Lullaby for Broadway?
    Review Essay: Lullaby for Broadway? Grant, Mark N. 2004. The Rise and Fall of the Broadway Musical. Boston: Northeastern University Press. Knapp, Raymond. 2005. The American Musical and the Formation of National Identity. Princeton, NJ: Princeton University Press. Swayne, Steve. 2005. How Sondheim Found His Sound. Ann Arbor: University of Michigan Press. Reviewed by Walter Frisch I. Latecomers to high culture, Americans are obsessed with identifying and canonizing indigenous art forms. In recent years, much of this attention has been lavished on jazz. Musical theater is beginning to catch up, to judge from the recent rash of companions, readers, and reference works.! As Stephen Banfield, a dean among scholars of the American musical, observed in a 2004 review essay, "So many academic books and articles have by now lamented 'that the musical has been neglected by academics as an area of study' that it has to be patently untrue" (2004:83).2 One challenge in the study of both jazz and musical theater is locating the specific historical moment or the precise works in which the genres assume an identity, especially an ''American'' one, distinct from their influences. For musical theater, those sources would include European operetta of the later nineteenth century-specifically the works of Johann Strauss, Offenbach, and Gilbert and Sullivan-as well as vaudeville, burlesque, revue, minstrel shows, variety shows, melodrama, and British musical comedy. In the first few years of the twentieth century, these traditions coalesced in the works of Victor Herbert (notably his Babes in Toyland, 1903) and George M. Cohan (his first big hit, Little Johnny Jones, 1904).
