• in discovering and re-introducing great plays into the classic repertory and commissioning new translations or adaptations.

• in building a more diverse audience for our theatre.

• in fostering an appreciation for classic theatre through our education programs.

• in using cutting-edge technology to share our work with people around the world.

• in supporting and developing actors, directors, designers and artisans who will make major contributions to the world of theatre for years to come.

• in encouraging a synergy of arts and ideas by developing collaborative programming with other institutions.

• in bringing the best of the performing arts to our audience by hosting a broad spectrum of local, national and international arts companies.

Free For All, a beloved annual Washington tradition, marked its fourth anniversary in Sidney Harman Hall with a fascinating remount of All’s Well That Ends Well. Directed by Jenny Lord from Michael Kahn’s original 2010 production, All’s Well is a story of

adventure and romance that examines the Photo of Miriam Silverman and Roach Tony by Scott Suchman. bounds of desire and individual will. In one of Shakespeare’s most moving comedies, reset for this production during the World War I period, Helena wants Bertram, and Bertram wants anything but marriage. With resourceful deception and ample persistence, our heroine overcomes one obstacle after another.

Many of the original cast members returned to star in this revival, including Academy Award- nominated actress Marsha Mason, as well as STC Affiliated Artists Ted van Griethuysen and Miriam Silverman. STC provided audiences from all across the Washington area with 11,778 tickets to Free For All performances, free of charge!

Nikolai Gogol’s outrageously funny satire of provincial bureaucracy was the perfect play at just the right time for our nation’s capital. A mischievous civil servant is mistaken for an incognito inspector, sending a small town and its corrupt officials into chaos.

Michael Kahn directed a cast of STC favorites in this masterful comedy of errors in which the self-deception of corrupt provincial officials leads to hilarious pandemonium. DC Theatre Scene called the production “better than five stars,” and Metro Weekly described the piece as “an utterly giggle-worthy mix of satire, irreverence and fuel-injected wit,” instructing readers to “get a ticket.” The recipient of four Helen Hayes Award nominations, The Government Inspector was also the first Russian play to be produced at STC, introducing our audiences to Russian drama for the first time. Gogol’s play, inspired by an anecdote by Pushkin, is now widely recognized as a classic of the Russian stage and a surprising influence on Tolstoy, Dostoyevsky and Chekhov. The Government Inspector was presented by the HRH Foundation.

Love, magic and wonder filled the air, and dreams blended with reality in this captivating staging of a Shakespeare classic. In A Midsummer Night’s Dream, mismatched lovers become embroiled in a supernatural squabble in Shakespeare’s mythical forest world and their destinies are altered forever. Ethan McSweeny directed Shakespeare’s magical and surprisingly dark comedy about the power of the imagination with endless creativity. The original music, acrobatic tricks of the fairies and dazzling metamorphoses made STC’s 2012-2013 production of A Midsummer Night’s Dream truly a feast for the senses.

The Washington Post raved about McSweeny’s Midsummer, calling the production “a guarantee of giddy-ever- after” and “the kind of gusty storm of a performance that satisfyingly renews a very weathered play.” Nominated for a 2013 Helen Hayes Award for Outstanding Resident Play, the production received five additional nominations. An abridged version of the play was also presented to younger

Directed by Tony Award winner Doug Hughes (Doubt), STC’s production of Hughie transfixed audiences with the raw force of one of Eugene O’Neill’s most stirring character studies. One of O’Neill’s masterful late works, Hughie is a fascinating portrait of Erie Smith (played by Emmy Award-winning actor Richard Schiff), a man whose illusions of a grand lifestyle are shattered after the death of his best friend, the anonymous hotel night clerk “Hughie” who validated his larger-than-life confidence. Searching for a new person to affirm his transparent fantasies, Erie is forced to come face to face with his own crushing self-pity.

The Washington Post called “Schiff’s fine- grained performance—the kind you could settle in and watch again almost as soon as it’s over,” and praised the production as “a deep, full evening of theater.” Schiff won over audiences and critics alike with his “intense performance that leaves you pondering the character for days . . . Hughie is a testament to the indefinable power of theatricality” (Washingtonian).

A generous gift by Clarice Smith and the Robert H. Smith Family Foundation by William Shakespeare has enabled STC directed by David Muse to produce three March 28–June 2, 2013 repertories over the Sidney Harman Hall next three seasons, beginning with the Hero/Traitor Repertory Arguably Shakespeare’s most political play, of Coriolanus and Coriolanus chronicles the conflict of man Wallenstein. This versus the masses, of the great individual support also allows for hero against the mentality of the starving a thematic symposium mob. Caius Martius is a mighty hero who during the run of each production to further earns the new name of “Coriolanus” for his educate and engage triumphs defending Rome in battle. But his audiences. inflexible self-belief and contempt for popular law cause him to be condemned as a traitor and sent into exile. Desiring revenge against the Romans who banished him, he befriends his blood enemy, Aufidius, and launches an assault on his beloved city. Featured as part of the Clarice Smith Repertory Series, Coriolanus highlights the power of political debate, as the characters discuss, argue, form and dissolve alliances, and maneuver among each other for power. Celebrated director David Muse, who “distinguished himself as a skillful director of contemporary plays” (The Washington Post), blurred the lines between hero and traitor in this politically driven tragedy about government, power and class conflict.Metro Weekly called it “a stunning work of urgency and clarity.” Roll Call noted that the play was an “extraordinarily astute reflection on the modern political landscape” and The Wall Street Journal declared this “Coriolanus belongs on Broadway.”

The Clarice Smith Repertory Series is sponsored by the Robert H. Smith Family Foundation.

by Freidrich Schiller translated and freely adapted by Robert Pinsky directed by Michael Kahn March 28–June 2, 2013 Sidney Harman Hall

As the second production in the Clarice Smith Series, Michael Kahn directed the North American, English-language premiere of Friedrich Schiller’s Wallenstein. Working from Schiller’s original German play cycle, former Poet Laureate Robert Pinsky was commissioned by STC to condense the original 10-hour trilogy into a three-hour play. Wallenstein is little known in America, despite its relevance to our own national tradition of military leaders turned politicians. Broadway World called Pinsky’s script “the true star of the show.”

One of Germany’s greatest dramatic works, Wallenstein follows the famous general Albrecht von Wallenstein at the height of his influence and power during the Thirty Years’ War. Leading Europe’s most powerful army, Wallenstein is caught between his ambition and his Emperor’s growing distrust. He must decide either to stay loyal to his king and lose his power or to betray his country for greater gain. STC Artistic Director Michael Kahn, called “one of the best directors in America” (DC Theatre Scene), envisioned this epic story of war, intrigue and loyalty tested. Wallenstein was commissioned through the generous support of The Beech Street Foundation and production support is provided by an award from the National Endowment for the Arts.

A celebration of the art of storytelling, The Winter’s Tale is one of Shakespeare’s late romances. Traveling through time, visiting the austere court at Sicilia and the bright sea shore of Bohemia, two generations transcend a personal history of torment and obsession. The Winter’s Tale tells the tale of King Leontes, who is overcome with jealousy when he believes his pregnant wife Hermione and his good friend King Polixenes are lovers.

The Winter’s Tale includes both stark, wintry tragedy and pastoral comedy, requiring the audience to embark on a complex emotional journey. Director Rebecca Taichman chose to double the cast of nine actors, with nearly all playing two roles in order to emphasize the play’s themes of duality of character, transformation and light and dark. The Washington Post remarked that “Taichman’s taut, visually arresting and tenderly wrought new production… is itself a kind of magic,” and called Taichman’s vision “fresh and intimate” and “completely, emotionally textured.”

Black Watch by Gregory Burke directed by John Tiffany September 19-October 7, 2012 Sidney Harman Hall

The National Theatre of Scotland’s Black Watch, directed by Tony Award winner John Tiffany, returned to the Sidney Harman Hall following 2011’s sold-out presentation. Based on interviews with former Scottish soldiers who served in Iraq, playwright Gregory Burke delivered a compelling and emotional work of theatre evoking the complexities of war. DC Theatre Scene called the work a “hypnotic spectacle of sensory theatre, by turns poetic, abstract and exhilarating.” The Washingtonian called it “heartbreakingly compelling.” Black Watch was nominated for five 2013 Helen Hayes Awards and won the award for Outstanding Non-Resident Production.

The Strange Undoing of Prudencia Hart by David Greig directed by Wils Wilson November 13-December 9, 2012 site-specific work at Bier Baron Tavern

The National Theatre of Scotland also presented David Greig’s The Strange Undoing of Prudencia Hart. This site-specific work played at D.C.’s Bier Baron Tavern, relying on audience participation to set the scene. Greig’s play follows Prudencia Hart, an uptight academic who ends up at a pub on a snowy Scottish Midwinter’s Eve after a scholarly conference. Prudencia embarks on an unexpected supernatural journey, deep into a world of Scottish myth and folklore. Director Wils Wilson’s use of the Bier Baron’s unique space was characterized as “hauntingly effective” by The Washington Post.

Les Liaisons Dangereuses by Pierre Choderlos de Laclos adapted for the stage by Christopher Hampton translated in French by Fanette Barraya directed by John Malkovich December 6-9, 2012 Lansburgh Theatre

Imported directly from the Théâtre de l’Atelier in Paris, this French-language staging of Les Liaisons Dangereuses incorporated several modern twists into the play’s story of sex, revenge and the decadence of aristocracy. The Washington Post called acclaimed actor John Malkovich’s directing “fresh, contemporary” and remarked that “the actors are wonderfully attuned to one another’s performances.” All six of the production’s limited engagement performances sold out during the 2012-2013 Season.

DC Metro Theater Arts called the production a “perfect pleasure for your senses,” and “brilliantly choreographed.” DC Theatre Scene remarked “Fun rarely feels this high-stakes—a thrilling experience that makes FELA! not just one of the most fun musicals in recent memory, but also one of the most important.”

During the season, volunteer ushers were essential as friendly and welcoming representatives to our theatre patrons. This past season, STC had more than 1,300 volunteers,including 100 new ushers. Volunteers also provided assistance with many special events and education programs hosted by STC, including our Meet the Cast receptions for each Mainstage show and SHAKESPEARIENCE Student Matinees.

Shakespeare Theatre Company Student Ambassadors, an initiative created during the 2010-2011 Season, continued to have great success. Student Ambassadors represented STC to their peers at Washington-area high schools and universities and spread the word on campus about STC’s productions, budget-friendly tickets, special events and audience enrichment programming. Student Ambassadors also volunteered at STC’s Free For All and other community events throughout the season. More than 20 students represented STC in D.C., Maryland and Virginia high schools and universities including American University, Catholic University and the University of Maryland.

In 2012-2013, Artists in the Community offered professional development and enrichment workshops to community groups, organizations and companies across the D.C. metro area. Professional development workshops were customized to reach the goals set forth by each host organization, teaching professional skills through techniques used in the theatre. For community groups, after-school programs and service organizations, STC created workshops and residencies to serve diverse populations and welcomed groups to the theatres for backstage tours. This season, the Shakespeare Theatre Company reached nearly 900 participants through workshops provided to organizations including the Marine Corps Band, Sibley Memorial Hospital, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission and Booz Allen Hamilton. An active contributor and supporter of local festivals, the Shakespeare Theatre Company engaged an additional 5,000 participants at events like the Barracks Row Festival, Kids EuroFest and the British Embassy Open House.

Education Efforts expanded and intensified during the Shakespeare Theatre Company’s 2012-2013 Season. Through initiatives like District Shakespeare, Artists in the Classroom and Young Company, the breadth and reach of STC Education programs increased dramatically, connecting with children and adults, downtown D.C. and rural Virginia, first- time theatregoers and professional actors. Through dynamic discussion, rigorous training and innovative engagement with all the arts, Shakespeare Theatre Company Education encouraged learners to explore the living meaning of Shakespeare and classical theatre.

Presenting Education Sponsor DISTRICT SHAKESPEARE

In the 2012-2013 Season, STC entered phase two of its ambitious, multi-year initiative to ensure that students in the District of Columbia have access to the arts. By attempting to establish a platform where every D.C. public high school can send an entire grade to the theatre each year, STC is striving to give every D.C. student the opportunity to see a Shakespeare play before they graduate. After visiting each D.C. public school (DCPS) serving grades 8-12 in the 2011-2012 Season, this year STC invited each school to attend a SHAKESPEARIENCE Student Matinee. For each school, STC provided a pre-show workshop, 50 tickets and transportation to the theatre, free of charge. In total, 42 of 53 District schools participated, and 1,984 students attended classical theatre for free, most for the first time in their lives. More than 1,100 students experienced A Midsummer Night’s Dream, while others saw Coriolanus or The Winter’s Tale. This season, STC also expanded the scope of District Shakespeare to include D.C. public charter schools. STC Affiliated Teaching Artists visited 45 charter schools serving grades 8-12. Interactive District Shakespeare workshops reached more than 800 students.

In the 2012-2013 Season, the SHAKESPEARIENCE Student Matinee Program gave teachers and students the chance to experience the thrill of live performance. Designed to allow greater access to classical theatre and the dramatic arts for educators and their students in D.C., Maryland and Virginia, the program offered price- reduced tickets, preparatory materials and in-school workshops. STC also provided supplemental materials to all who attended, free of charge. This past season, STC offered 13 SHAKESPEARIENCE Student Matinees and more than 6,500 students attended A Midsummer Night’s Dream, The Government Inspector, Coriolanus, Wallenstein and The Winter’s Tale. Free in-school pre-performance workshops in all schools are an essential part of the SHAKESPEARIENCE program. STC staff and Affiliated Teaching Artists taught 188 pre- and post-performance workshops to a total of 4,337 students this season. SHAKESPEARIENCE provided the opportunity for students to engage with the Bard’s work off the page and out of the classroom. Many students who attended were able to experience classical theatre and live performance for the very first time, giving students a living, breathing encounter with Shakespeare and a thirst to attend theatre again.

Text Alive! continued to help students unlock Shakespeare’s plays through a performance- based curriculum. Throughout ten workshops, students closely examined one of Shakespeare’s texts in their classrooms with STC Affiliated Teaching Artists. They also attended a SHAKESPEARIENCE Student Matinee of that play. As a culminating project, the students designed, rehearsed and performed a Shakespearean scene onstage at both of STC’s theatres. Teachers also participated in professional development workshops, which provided them with the tools necessary to successfully integrate the study of Shakespeare into their classrooms. The program supported English and Theatre standards of learning in D.C., Maryland and Virginia. Text Alive! worked with 28 classrooms, over two semesters, reaching 19 teachers and 537 students. Priority was given to public schools in the District of Columbia and suburban schools with high economic disadvantage rates. During the 2012-2013 school year, 65% of the 17 participating schools were underserved.

Camp Shakespeare once again expanded, this year giving 279 students, ages 9 to 18, a magical and intensive classical theatre experience. In each camp, young participants played, explored and deepened their understanding of Shakespeare through classes in acting, movement, stage combat and text analysis. Students also developed and performed a play on the Lansburgh Theatre stage, where they showcased their knowledge and talent for family and friends. To ensure that all students, regardless of socio-economic background, had a chance to be a part of Camp Shakespeare, STC provided more than $10,000 in scholarships. In addition to the two- week sessions, STC offered Advanced Camp: a rigorous session for talented teens ages 14 to 18. In Advanced Camp, participants had the chance to rehearse and perform a full Shakespeare play. After three weeks of rehearsal, participants mounted a final performance ofAs You Like It in The Forum in Sidney Harman Hall, complete with full technical support.

Artists in the Classroom experienced enormous growth this season, with more residencies than ever bringing the Shakespeare Theatre Company into local schools. These customized classes were designed in cooperation with teachers, creating an arts-integrated workshop series led by STC Teaching Artists tailored to each classroom. Residencies address Common Core standards for Language Arts and Theatre by exploring Shakespeare’s text through performance. Workshops aimed to challenge students to actively engage with the language, plot and themes as it related to their other studies. This season, the Shakespeare Theatre Company partnered with William E. Doar Jr. Public Charter School for the Performing Arts to create a first- of-its-kind residency that served every grade (pre-K through 8) in the school for the entire school year. Nearly 420 students participated in a total of 798 workshops at WEDJ. By the end of the school year, 16 Artist in the Classroom residencies reached 2,490 students from elementary-age to high-school level.

The Shakespeare Theatre Company continued to offer a wide variety of classes taught by professional actors and artists. This year’s teaching artists included Floyd King, Nancy Robinette and Naomi Jacobson, actors often seen on STC’s stages. Classes allowed students the opportunity to feed their love of theatre and study the craft in a way that is accessible to everyone. This season, Master Acting Classes engaged 388 teens and adults from all over the Washington metropolitan area. Classes served a diverse student body, ranging from early career actors to military veterans, suburban teens to government employees. In each session STC Affiliated Teaching Artists helped students explore a variety of disciplines, including voice and movement, text analysis, stage combat and Shakespeare monologues.

This season more than 330 aspiring theatre artists, technicians and professionals from all over the country competed for a spot as an intern or fellow at the Shakespeare Theatre Company. Interns and fellows work with respected theatre professionals and are treated as full members of the STC staff. STC interns and fellows follow a packed full-time schedule and receive a weekly stipend to help offset living expenses. This season, 25 early-career artists and professionals, travelling from as far away as California and Washington state, joined the Company in artistic, administrative and production departments. Past interns and fellows have been hired as STC staff, and others are pursuing their careers at other top artistic institutions. Alumni have gone on to work or study at such notable organizations as New York City Ballet and Yale School of Drama.

In its third season, the highly successful Teen Critic program gave young writers the chance to sharpen their eye and their writing. Designed for high school students interested in journalism, the Teen Critic Program taught students how to view theatrical productions with a critical eye and compose their own theatre reviews. Ten teens from schools across D.C., Virginia and Maryland were accepted into the program from a competitive pool of applicants. For each production, the Teen Critics were invited to see the show on Press Night alongside professional journalists. To hone their writing skills, the students participated in writing intensives and met with top theatre critics from across the D.C. area, including Nelson Pressley of The Washington Post and Trey Graham of Washington City Paper. The teens’ reviews were then shared in school newspapers and posted on STC’s Asides Online.

This season, STC launched an ambitious project for talented teens from across the Washington metropolitan region: Young Company, a rigorous, year-long training program in classical acting. Developed and facilitated by STC’s Resident Teaching Artist and Affiliated Teaching Artists, the program ran four afternoons a week, equipping teens with intensive training in a variety of disciplines such as acting technique, voice, movement, text analysis and Shakespeare scene study. To support their physical and vocal training, participants attended live performances at STC and other D.C.-area theatres. More than two dozen teens were invited to audition and in September, 14 teens joined the Company.

During their year with STC, the Company mounted two productions: a small, black-box presentation of scenes and monologues in the winter, and, in the spring, a fully designed, sold- out run of Romeo and Juliet in The Forum in Sidney Harman Hall. In July, the Company was invited to attend the International Youth Theatre Festival in Parla, Spain. The only English-speaking company to participate, Young Company members took part in multiple workshops and tours with their Spanish counterparts, closing the Festival with their much-acclaimed performance of Romeo and Juliet.

The Shakespeare Theatre Company’s one- year Academy for Classical Acting is a unique graduate course of study that confers Master of Fine Arts degrees in Classical Acting through The George Washington University. This season’s 18 member Class of 2013 marked the 13th anniversary of the program. In all, 196 talented graduates have gone on to grace many of the best stages, including the Shakespeare Theatre Company, The Kennedy Center, Folger Theatre, Arena Stage, Guthrie Theater, Goodman Theatre, the Oregon Shakespeare Festival and more than 200 others across the country. Every summer, the ACA performs two classical plays in repertory as part of the students’ final projects. In June 2013, the ACA staged Shakespeare’s Measure for Measure, directed by Robert Richmond, and Webster’s The White Devil, directed by Eleanor Holdridge. ACA students greatly benefit from the growing scholarship support of the Emerging Classical Artists Fund. The large amount of work—both in and outside of the classroom—that the demanding ACA curriculum requires prevents degree candidates from working during their tenure at The George Washington University. To assist in curbing the costs associated with pursuing their MFA, the Emerging Classical Artists Fund provides merit awards to ACA students to support them while they earn their degrees. The Fund endeavors to ensure the future of classical theatre in America by sustaining the training of the next generation of classical actors.

Murray Abraham, best known for his role in Amadeus, with the William Shakespeare Award for Classical Theatre and Clark Construction Group, LLC with the Sidney Harman Award for Philanthropy in the Arts. The Gala performances featured a myriad of unique and exciting performances portraying Shakespeare’s Timeless Characters. The Paul Taylor Dance Company opened with a dynamic performance based on Troilus and Cressida. Broadway singer Howard McGillin and opera singer Lauren Flanigan sang selections from their respective genres. Jerry Stiller, an old friend of Abraham, toasted him and introduced comedic actor Bill Irwin, and STC Affiliated Artist Ted van Griethuysen’s performed a scene from King Lear. The Q Brothers, a hip- hop group from Chicago, got the audience’s hands in the air with Othello: The Remix. The performance ended with a surprise performance by Abraham’s Amadeus co- star, singer and actress Christine Ebersole.

Following the performance, guests walked a candlelit path to dinner and dancing at the National Building Museum.

One of Washington, D.C.’s most anticipated events is Will on the Hill. Washington’s political and media elite are brought together to celebrate the work of Shakespeare. A sold-out crowd filled Sidney Harman Hall, contributing more than $400,000 for the Theatre’s year-round education and community engagement programs. Toil and Trouble, written by Peter Byrne, took us to the Washington studios of a national news network where two anchors try to hold onto their audience in anticipation of a major statement by the White House by bringing on a series of guests. Unfortunately, the only guests available are attending a nearby Shakespearean costume ball!

This season’s event featured VEEP star Anna Chlumsky as well as STC favorite Todd Scofield. Fellow cast members included ABC News’ Rick Klein, NBC’s Chris Matthews, the Honourable Ian Liddell- Grainger MP and nearly 20 members of Congress. The show “warmed our bipartisan-craving hearts” (Roll Call), creatively incorporating good-natured jabs at contemporary political issues as the play centered around the theme of working across the aisle, and the power of Shakespeare triumphing in the end.

Mock Trial The Pen vs. The Sword Monday, May 13, 2013 Sidney Harman Hall

The Shakespeare Theatre Company’s annual Mock Trial is one of the most anticipated legal events in Washington, D.C. For nearly 20 years, Supreme Court Justices have presided over theatrically-inspired cases for this exciting event. This year, advocates took on a libel case entitled The Pen vs. The Sword, inspired by Shakespeare’s political drama Coriolanus.

After Coriolanus’s untimely death, his mother Volumnia, the executor of her son’s state, believed that if it were not for the malicious defamation of Coriolanus’s campaign by the Roman tabloid, The Latin Tribune, Coriolanus would have had a highly successful political career. The defamation thus caused Coriolanus monetary injury for which the estate should receive damages.

As is tradition at the event, a panel of Washington’s legal luminaries and the nation’s most esteemed judges assembled to hear the libel case in front of a packed house. Supreme Court Justices Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Samuel A. Alito and Stephen G. Breyer presided over this year’s once-again sell out event. Judges Merrick B. Garland, Douglas Ginsburg, Brett M. Kavanaugh and David S. Tatel came well prepared with clever one-liners and references to current events to Photos (from top) of Lisa Blatt, Seth P.

An unexpected highlight of the Shakespeare Theatre Company’s recent season was a celebration of Michael Kahn’s Investiture as an Honorary Commander of the Most Excellent Order of the British Empire (CBE), awarded by Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. The award is a national order of chivalry for British nationals and people who impact the United Kingdom and recognizes distinguished service to the arts and sciences, public services outside the Civil Service and work with charitable and welfare organizations of all kinds.

Kahn said, “I am very grateful and humbled by this honor from the British government and most particularly since it is being given to an American for their work on Shakespeare.”

Mr. Kahn was honored in recognition to his more than 25 years of service to the Shakespeare Theatre in Washington, and the significant contributions he has made to the cultural ties that the U.K. and U.S. share. The Shakespeare Theatre Company has introduced the iconic playwright to thousands of American schoolchildren and has also created numerous opportunities for British directors and actors in the U.S. Following the Investiture Ceremony the British Embassy hosted a charming reception at the British Ambassador’s Residence with approximately 200 of the Shakespeare Theatre Company’s loyal companions and generous supporters. The evening’s celebration also featured performances by Franchelle Stewart Dorn, Stacy Keach and Patrick Page.
