This week we've got me Cliff Chamberlain— James Vincent Meredith: James Vincent Meredith— Karen Rodriguez: Karen Rodriguez— Caroline Neff: And me, Caroline Neff. Cliff Chamberlain: And Caroline, this week we've got a conversation with you and our esteemed playwright, ensemble member, Rajiv Joseph. I don't think I've ever met Rajiv in the real world. I've talked him through email. I'm curious, have you ever met Rajiv before this conversation? Caroline Neff: I have. And, you know, I feel like his presence always feels a little bit like Brigadoon. It’s like—it's just sort of there, like, when you're least expecting it. So, I actually—I think the first time that I met him was… I don't remember if it was when I saw Guards at the Taj at the Atlantic, if I met him that night. But I'm trying to think if I've ever actually met him within the confines of the Steppenwolf complex.

  • 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.

  • Apologia Comœdiae
    1 Jay Malarcher Associate Professor of Theatre and Dramaturg West Virginia University [email protected] Apologia Comœdiae For almost as long as philosophers have questioned the metaphysics of existence and the morality of social behaviors, they have sought also to answer the cause and function of humor, specifically in the case of performed comedy.1 With such luminaries as Aristotle, Horace, Kant, Wittgenstein, Bergson, and others involved in the debate, the notion that such an inquiry might be more appropriately located in a journal of epistemology rather than one devoted to performance studies becomes more and more the expectation of those who consider comedy a serious discipline. In fact, few contemporary performance studies scholars approach comedy at all, preferring, it seems, to study the performative aspects of a dental examination or the hidden gender agenda of a nineteenth-century cross-dressing vaudevillian. I would argue that the rigor of philosophy is precisely what comedy theory has always demanded, since any writer might toss off thoughts about comedy and call it a theory; when such a presentation lacks real logic and insight, it serves only to perpetuate the idea 1 Throughout I will distinguish between the more literary “humor” and the performed “comedy” to keep my argument clear and to restrict my topic to a manageable subject set. 2 that comedy simply is not worth the time of serious scholars. As Woody Allen so famously put it, “Humorists always sit at the children‟s table.”2 Comedy deserves to be respected more for two significant advantages it has: first, it provides great exercise in critical reasoning skills, since comedy works on the reason (as opposed to tragedy, which works on the emotions); second, the best comedy allows a penetrating insight into the society that generated the satire: Thus, my assertion that comedy belongs in a conference devoted to the arts‟ role in cultural diplomacy.
