Located in downtown Providence, Trinity Rep has long been a driving force behind the creativity that fuels and defines the region. From its roots in Providence’s Trinity United Methodist Church, Trinity Rep moved in 1973 to its present home, the Lederer Theater Center in downtown Providence. Built in 1917 and formerly known as the Majestic Theater, the historic building now houses two performance spaces: the Elizabeth and Malcolm Chace Theater (500+ seats) and the Sarah and Joseph Dowling, Jr. Theater (200+ seats.) Employing over 100 artists, educators, and administrators, the organiza- tion generates nearly $12 million in economic activity annually.

NEVER ORDINARY Trinity Rep is committed to reinventing the public square and inspiring dialogue by creating emotionally-stimulating live productions and innova- tive education programs for all ages and abilities. Whether classical or contemporary, all of Trinity Rep’s productions connect audiences with the play in meaningful and sometimes surprising ways. Its annual production of A Christmas Carol is new every year and has brought families together for 40 years. Artistic director since 2006, Curt Columbus has embraced the Trinity Rep aesthetic established by founding Artistic Director Adrian Hall and continued by his successors: Anne Bogart, Richard Jenkins, Oskar Eustis, and Amanda Dehnert. Together, with Executive Director Tom Parrish, Columbus is committed to creating unparalleled theatrical experiences for and with the community.

Skeleton_2017.indd 35 9/11/17 1:02 PM A Summer of Young Actors Summer by Tyler Dobrowsky Love Institute 2017 In summer 2016, Trinity Rep debuted a new program in partnership with Rhode Island Latino Arts (RILA) called Shakespeare en el Verano, or Shake- speare in the Summer: a free, bilingual, family-friendly production of Romeo Our hearts are full after seven weeks of Young Actors and Juliet that toured Providence. The two main goals were to bring back Summer Institute (YASI) programming. We worked with Trinity Rep’s popular mobile Shakespeare program from the early 2000s, and to engage and showcase the burgeoning Latino population of Rhode Island. over 200 students from grades 1–12 and beyond in a The production was such a huge success that we brought it back this summer, thanks to funding from the Rhode Island Foundation, the City of variety of classes and productions. Registration for Providence and the National Endowment for the Arts. The production traveled summer 2018 opens in January! to different parts of the city as well as Pawtucket, this time with a more contemporary translation, and featuring music by Jerediah Gonzalez, the music director from last spring’s production of Like Sheep to Water, or Fuente Ovejuna. Co-directed by myself and Marcel Mascaro, and featuring Brown/Trinity Rep MFA acting students, Young Actors Summer Institute (YASI) counselors, and actors from the community, the play was performed at Waterfire, the Steel Yard, South Providence Library, Southside Cultural Center, Temple to Music at Roger Williams Park, Cranston Street Armory, and Pell Chafee Performance Center. We were the inaugural production at Mixed Magic Theater’s new outdoor amphitheater in Pawtucket, where Rep. David Cicilline, Mayor of Pawtucket Donald Grebien, and Randy Rosenbaum of the Rhode Island State Council for the Arts gave opening remarks. The tour was ultimately seen by approximately 2,500 people. Last summer’s translation by Saul Ramos, one of the founding members of Arte Latino of New England, featured a more literal translation using Castilian Spanish to mirror old Shakespearean English. This summer, we used a more contemporary translation by Franklin Diaz, more in line with the Spanish spoken today, so the text would be more accessible.

LEANDRO CASTRO

The project received excellent news coverage locally and nationally. In The Huffington Post, Bruce Whitacre wrote, “It is fittingly ironic that Trinity Rep, now a Rhode Island institution and its largest arts organization, is engaging with a Latino community partner based in the very church where it started. One could almost say that a theatre needs to re-found itself, to reprove itself, to each new community it wants to engage. Only by finding true common ground can authentic, long lasting ties be built that will make theatre better reflect our rapidly changing communities.” The project, according to Marta V. Martinez, executive director of RILA, is to help “build bridges and support all arts organizations in learning how to become more inclusive and welcoming to Latinos.” “For the past 18 months, both organizations have been having in-depth conversations about the cultural implications of forming a partnership while exploring generally what ‘Latino theater’ means,” Martinez said in the Providence Journal. “RILA asked Trinity to...be at the forefront of change by creating something that has never been made possible in Rhode Island.” PHOTOS BY JORDAN BUTTERFIELD, MATT TIBBS & MARK TUREK
