This was the first Our Students 3 production after the original Broadway cast, and I had several friends in the show, which was cast locally. One of the cast members was James Monroe Checking In 4 Iglehart (CSUEB Graduate) who had been in previous musicals I had directed in San Jose. James has since gone on to win the Tony Award as the Genie in Disney’s Broadway production of "Aladdin." James was playing 'Comfort Guest Artists 5 Counselor' Mitch Mahoney in "Spelling Bee," and his performance was so perfect that the producers decided to model every subsequent 'Mitch' on James’ performance. Another friend in the show was Aaron Albano, who had Featured Faculty 7 started out as one of the teenagers in my production of The Music Man that I directed in San Jose, and has since gone on to appear on Broadway in The Wiz, Newsies, and currently in Allegiance. The San Francisco company of Information 9 "Spelling Bee" was so successful, that the producers ultimately used those actors to replace the Broadway company once the original actors were ready to leave the show. One of those original actors, Sarah Salzburg ‒ the original “Schwarzy” in ‘Spelling Bee - was the daughter of a good friend of mine.

HOUSe invokes act: The evocation of the War Powers Act in Lebanon and authorization ofthe deploy­ ment of American Marines in Beirut were provided for in legislation approved by the House of Representatives The historic vote marked the first time that a House of Congress has decided to invoke the War Powers Act, which was passed 10 years ago as a congressional move to place constraints upon the war-making powers of a president. The Senate will vote on the resolution Thurs­ day, and is expected to pass it. Reagan plans Visit: T&lks in Peking ended with Secretary of Defense Caspar W Weinberger announc­ ing that President Reagan and Premier Zhao Ziyang would exchange official visits next year.

Arena Stage Artistic Director Molly Smith announces the D.C.-based pioneering theater company’s 60th season filled with award-winning artists and projects to celebrate the grand opening of Arena Stage at the Mead Center for American Theater. The 2010/11 inaugural season includes eight full productions, seven presentations from the National Endowment for the Arts New Play Development Program and public readings from all 30 of Edward Albee’s works, totaling at least 45 projects produced and presented by Arena Stage in the inaugural year at the Mead Center. With the opening next fall, Arena Stage will fully become a national center for production, presentation, development and study of American theater. “The moment we have been waiting for has arrived—we are heading home,” shares Artistic Director Molly Smith. “After 11 years of planning and two and a half years of construction, the beautiful new Mead Center for American Theater will be ready to welcome audiences and artists this fall.” The new campus includes the renovation of the two existing performance spaces, the Fichandler Stage and the Kreeger Theater, and the creation of the 200-seat Arlene and Robert Kogod Cradle—a venue dedicated to cradling risk surrounding new or radically re-envisioned productions of American theater.
