  • Contemporary American Playwriting the Issue of Legacy
    CONTEMPORARY AMERICAN PLAYWRITING The Issue of Legacy Jason Grote, Caridad Svich, and Anne Washburn in conversation with Ken Urban espite proclamations to the contrary, there is a surge of new writing in the American theatre. Not plays masquerading as films or TV shows, but seri- ous plays written by writers with a passionate commitment to the stage. DBut since this new generation of theatre artists is less centralized than previous ones, working in cities and towns across the U.S., it is hard to talk about a specific movement or scene. For those working in New York City, Off-Off Broadway no longer adequately describes the theatre that these playwrights create. Such writers do not want to be defined in relation to Broadway, for Broadway ceased to be a venue for adventurous new writing decades ago. This conversation is an attempt by four playwrights to define some of the identifying characteristics and concerns of this new writing. The starting point is the issue of legacy: How do the historical avant-garde, the Language Playwrights of the 1970s and 80s (Mac Wellman, Jeffrey Jones, Len Jenkin), and the classics influence contemporary playwriting? To gain a better sense of what is happening now, it proves beneficial to look back. The conversation featured Jason Grote, Caridad Svich, and Anne Washburn. Jason Grote is the recipient of the 2006 P73 Playwriting Fellowship and co-chair of the SoHo Rep Writer/Director Lab. He is writing The Wal-Mart Plays for the Working Theater in New York. Caridad Svich is a resident playwright at New Dramatists and editor of Trans-Global Readings: Crossing Theatrical Boundaries and Divine Fire: Eight Contemporary Plays Inspired by the Greeks.

Definitely Erin Court- ney’s A Map Of Virtue and, surprisingly, our Brook- my life. He is one of lyn College/Classic Stage Company Weasel Festival of last August (four plays based on the the smartest and most mystery novels of Norbert Davis – the favorite mystery writer of Ludwig Wittgenstein) by Caitlin generous writers I have Brubaker, Alexandra Collier, Ariel Stess, and Sara Farrington with brilliant direction by Brubaker & ever known; maybe Sarah Rasmussen. Also, I very much liked Thomas Bradshaw’s Burning and Young Jean Lee’s Untitled one of the smartest and Feminist Show. And, of course, Sybil Kempson’s splendid Secret Death Of Puppets, Julia Jarcho’s generous ever to exist. Dreamless Land, and Away Uniform by Tina Satter. AB: What do these (apparently very different) Since he is an avid theatre writers share? theatregoer and a lover MW: An attitude towards story-telling that is very different from the norm in our theatre in of new work, I asked These States. Often their plays operate like a game of three-dimensional chess: characters him for his take on who are firmly located in one apparent world suddenly find themselves in a situation that is the 2011/12 season in drastically elsewhere (A Map of Virtue for in- stance); or we as an audience find ourselves so downtown NYC theatre.

  • Chapter 1 Introduction: Improper Naming
    Notes Chapter 1 Introduction: Improper Naming 1. The allusion of Ru, Vi, and Flo to the flowers adorning Ophelia (described in Hamlet Act IV Scenes v and vii) is probably more than a coincidence, as an early version of the play held in the Beckett Collection at Reading University Library suggests that Beckett originally called the characters Viola, Rose, and Poppy. 2. In Kane’s slightly earlier plays – Blasted (showcased in 1993), Phaedra’s Love (produced in 1996), and Cleansed (produced in April 1998) – they are given names. The characters in Crave (produced in August 1998) are referred to only by letters (C, M, B, A); and in the posthumously produced 4.48 Psychosis (2000), there are no character names. The ‘I’ that speaks throughout 4.48 Psy- chosis is singular but split: three performers speak the ‘I’, arguably reflecting a triad voiced by the ‘I’ itself: ‘Victim/ Perpetrator/ Bystander’ (Kane, 2001, p. 231). 3. These insights derive in part from a response from Vogel by email to my question about the name ‘Anna’. 4. Prefiguring Lehmann, Bonnie Marranca states, in her introduction to the three-text collection The Theatre of Images (a work each by Robert Wilson, Lee Breuer, and Richard Foreman), that ‘value came to be increasingly placed on performance with the result that the new theatre never became a literary theatre, but one dominated by images – visual and aural. This is the single most important feature of contemporary American theatre’ (Marranca, p. ix). 5.

  • Mac Wellman and the Language Poets: Chaos Writing and the General Economy of Language
    Spring 2010 69 Mac Wellman and the Language Poets: Chaos Writing and the General Economy of Language Keith Appler Shake the flour can, get the particles. You lift the rod one inch too far, and the core’s crazy, you’re plastered on account of the ceiling. —Mac Wellman’s Cellophane By the time Marjorie Perloff would write the foreword to the 2001 Cellophane: Plays by Mac Wellman, she would note that, in addition to Bertolt Brecht, Samuel Beckett, Sam Shepard, and Harold Pinter, Mac Wellman also “recalls . the language poets–Bruce Andrews, Charles Bernstein, Steve McCaffery–who are his contemporaries.”1 Wellman, a prolific experimental playwright, has corresponded with Bernstein at least since 1977,2 and among Wellman’s extensive bicoastal associates is the Language poet Douglas Messerli, founder of Sun and Moon Press of Los Angeles. Wellman, described as a “language” writer by New York Times reviewer Mel Gussow in 1990,3 is identified as aLanguage poet in 2008 by Helen Shaw in her foreword to Wellman’s third major play collection. Shaw writes that Wellman “has been the deconstructionists’ mountaintop; he has read the very choppy tablets given down by the Black Mountain gang and the Language Poets (he is one). But he also returns to us [in the theatre] with their message.”4 Shaw’s identification of Wellman as a Language poet in no way diminishes his importance in the theatre, although his first plays were radio plays adapted from his poetry, and his dramatic works, always off-beat, suggest his “poetical” preoccupation with producing unconventional and emphatically non-didactic effects through linguistic and theatrical means.

  • The Korean American Context
    Exploding Stereotypes Inside and Out: The Theatre of Young Jean Lee and Issues of Gender and Racial Identity Thesis Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Seunghyun Hwang, M.A. Graduate Program in Theatre The Ohio State University 2010 Thesis Committee: Lesley Ferris, Advisor Chan Park Copyright by Seunghyun Hwang 2010 Abstract Young Jean Lee is a playwright and director who has worked in New York City since 2002. She founded the Young Jean Lee's Theatre Company in 2003 where she produced a number of her own plays. She can be classified as a "1.5 generation" Asian American playwright who has added her particular voice about diasporic Asian woman’s issues to American theatre. Her creative and artistic interests were not limited to academic reading and writing, but expanded to live theatre and performance. Her works thematically involve the daily issues and interaction among contemporary American people. In her theatrical works, Young Jean Lee challenges the audience to rethink the nature of race or gender stereotypes in the USA through her trajectory of reconsidering these stereotypes. This thesis focuses on two of her most recent and controversial works, Songs of the Dragons Flying to Heaven (2006) and The Shipment (2008). Chapter 1 provides a brief overview of Asian American theatre history and specifically situates Lee’s work within a context of Korean American playwrights since 1990s where they appeared for the first time in any significant number. The next two chapters analyze Lee's multiple narratives of race, culture, and diaspora, and her attempt to deconstruct and explode ever present and recycled stereotypes of Asian Americans and African Americans.

(Photo by Bronwen Sharp) INTERVIEWS | OCTOBER 2016 | THE STATE OF THE PLAY | SEPTEMBER 20, 2016 | 0 COMMENTS Mac Wellman: An Outlier Tracing His Own Orbit Mac Wellman: An Outlier Tracing His Own Orbit How this dedicated follower of no fashion and avatar of alternatives to the well-made play keeps it weird. BY ELIZA BENT Soon after I nished my playwriting MFA at Brooklyn College, a play of mine had a production that caused me more woe than delight. Was this kind of disappointment what my new career would entail? Why had I just spent years on an MFA? In the wake of the show’s closing, I found myself turning over these questions in my mind at the Great Plains Theatre Conference, where my former Brooklyn College teacher Mac Wellman was giving workshops and responding to plays. One day as we walked from a particularly tasty supper toward an evening performance, I opened up to Wellman about my private doubts. I gave a short speech that concluded with me stammering: “I just don’t know if I want to be a playwright anymore.” It was twilight, and Wellman was dressed in a black Japanese silk jacket with a lime green Kokopelli pin and a dark denim sherman’s hat. We were walking slowly—ambling, really. As I began to formulate further remarks, I simultaneously anticipated Wellman interrupting me with a rallying cry to carry on and buck up—with the pep talk I was subconsciously shing for.
