We l c o m e t o
Dear Theatregoers... After the smashing success of this summer’s remarkable Shakespeare Festival, plus Moonlight and Magnolias and The Lady with All the Answers, we might well be inclined to give a huge sigh of relief and accomplish- ment and relax. But that’s hardly going to be possible, given the double-bill we offer at the moment. To welcome my beloved colleagues Terrence McNally and Graciela Daniele back to this theatre is a consummation devoutly to be wished, since he last graced our halls with The Full Monty; and she hasn’t worked her magic since The Snow Ball. But that they’ve come to celebrate the irresistibly dynamic Chita Rivera: The Dancer’s Life, rolling out the events of the our industry’s signature dance icon, not only makes us proud, but initiates lines at the box office any theatre administrator weeps to see. And just next door, in the crucible we call the Cassius Carter Centre Stage is Associate Artist Dakin Matthews, plumbing today’s headlines concerning the church’s most devastating moral crisis with The Prince of L.A., a witty and wise work he not only wrote, but in which he plays its central character, guided by the sure hand of his most astute critic and talented wife, Anne McNaughton. This year past, and the one ahead for all the world seem to be the incarnation of “the good old days!” We are thrilled you are here to share the rewards with us. JACK O’BRIEN Artistic Director
Welcome to the first round of our Winter 2005/6 Season. This unprecedented season, highlighted by not one but two world-premiere musicals, opens with the thrilling Chita Rivera: The Dancer’s Life, featuring one of the nation’s the- atrical treasures in a Broadway-bound musical celebrating her life. We follow this up with another incredible musical event: THE TIMES THEY ARE A-CHANGIN’, conceived and directed by the incomparable Twyla Tharp to the music of legendary singer/songwriter Bob Dylan. Many of you already hold tickets to this once-in-a-lifetime theatrical event, as it is a special subscriber benefit to receive priority access to these highly-anticipated Globe productions. It has been an exhilarating summer at The Old Globe. We began in June with our exciting Open House, which launched our 70th Anniversary celebrations while welcoming more than 3000 patrons to enjoy a free day of theatre activities. And just a few weeks ago, we honored our esteemed Founding Director Craig Noel with a 90th birthday party and dedication of his bust, created by noted sculptor Lark Grey Dimond-Cates. What a year it continues to be for the Globe, as we celebrate this 70th Anniversary as one of this country’s premiere arts institutions. This incredible milestone could not have been achieved without your support. To reach this point in our history — having consis- tently produced works of the highest caliber, sending shows to New York, and offering the unparalleled plays and artists you’ve come to expect on our stages — requires a devoted patron and donor base. With ticket sales cover only 55% of our operating costs, we rely on your tax-deductible contributions to ensure our continued commitment to artistic excellence. We hope you will lend your support to the Globe as we continue our 70th Anniversary celebrations throughout the 2005/6 Season. LOUIS G. SPISTO Executive Director
Like youngsters starting school each fall filled with anticipation, beginning a new season re-energizes and re- dedicates The Old Globe’s artists, craftspeople and staff. Ten productions will be brought onto the company’s stages between September and June, and each is an opportunity to reach for the impossible perfect expression to which all art aspires. Theatre began as an admixture of dance, music and poetry which told its audiences their culture’s stories. All three elements will be seen in the Globe season’s first two offerings. Leading American dramatist Terrence McNally has crafted a narrative which leads us through the life of Broadway legend Chita Rivera. A kind of theatrical catalog of the last half century of musical theatre, Chita Rivera: The Dancer’s Life is a celebration in dance and song of the genre’s most distinguished creators, expressed through the life and career of one of its greatest practitioners. Award-winning dramaturge and playwright Dakin Matthews won the 2005 Best New Play Award from the Los Angeles drama critics for his play, The Prince of L.A. It is an insightful and human study of the Catholic Church’s institutional response to the recent crises created by the conduct of some of its priests. His dialogue sounds absolutely contemporary to our ears; yet Dakin has expressed it in a frame of classical poetry. The Globe’s fall season kicks off now. You receive.

At the time, about three years ago, I was aware, as we all were, of a great moral These bishops, these serious and spiritually sophisticated men, crisis in the Catholic Church, one that has hardly decreased in its had a story to tell as well; it wasn’t a pretty story, but it was one I effects today, though most of the shocking revelations are happily wanted to tell — not to excuse them, but to understand them.

What I hope rings true is the picture of the complex and contests) the various lawsuits against it at great financial and/or flawed mechanism known as the clerical, and especially the epis- moral cost. copal, mind. The papers all had a name for this crisis — the pedophilia scan- These are the men — and I could very easily have been one of dal, they called it; and indeed, that did seem to be an appropriate them — who have been chosen to lead the Catholic church; and name. frankly if something is not done, I fear they may still — even after this scandal — lead it into an even more harrowing future. But for me, that was not the essence of the scandal, nor indeed was it the most dangerous and destructive news about the Catholic Church as an organization. For me the most troubling and relatively unexamined part of the horror was the complicity of the Church’s hierarchy in protecting and perpetuating the sick and sinful actions of a comparatively few men. I realize that to say there were comparatively few pedophiles in the priesthood sounds defensive and mealy-mouthed. Those few did tremendous, perhaps irreparable, damage first of all and most devastatingly to their victims, and ultimately to their church. But the fact remains they were a small minority — even at the most pessimistic calculation, perhaps 7 or 8 per cent. For me the really shocking statistic is that while only a small per- centage of Catholic priests were guilty of sexual abuse of minors, it seemed as if 100 per cent of Catholic bishops were clearly implicated in turning a blind eye to it, covering it up, and even perpetuating it. So the play is not so much about pedophilia (which is a minor, but powerful theme in the piece), as it is about the way the insti- tutional clerical psyche is formed to deal with both sexuality and scandal. One can explain pedophilia as a sickness, denounce it as Each Bishop traditionally designs his own coat of arms upon his elevation a sin, and punish it as a crime. But what explains the conduct of to rank. Cardinals' coats of arms have fifteen tassels on each side and the the bishops? What were these apparently bright, apparently cardinal's hat on top.

P8 PERFORMANCES MAGAZINE A Note on the Text The Prince of L.A. is written in rhyming verse, based on the The rhyme schemes are my English versions of the standard metrical forms used in Spanish Golden Age plays. I chose to Spanish schemes, including: the redondilla (a four-line stanza write in this verse form for two reasons. rhyming abba); the loose ballad rhyme (a four-line stanza rhyming only the even numbered lines: abcb); the tight ballad The first was to distance the play as much as possible from rhyme (a four-line stanza rhyming alternate lines: abab); the the scandal-of-the-week mode so that I, and the audience, tercet or terza rima (three-line stanzas with interlocking could focus less on the sensational and more on the psycho- rhymes: aba, bcb, cdc, etc.); the quintilla (a five-line stanza logical issues raised by the events occurring in the play. This rhyming either abbab or ababa); and the décima (a ten-line would likely mean somewhat longer and more self-analyzing stanza rhyming abbaaccddc). Spanish plays almost never speeches in the play, and verse was a way of giving those used couplets and rarely used blank verse. speeches a more aesthetic shape and making them more pow- erful and pleasurable. Don’t feel embarrassed if you don’t hear the rhymes or the rhythms all the time; you’re not meant to. I wrote them to The second was simply to issue myself a challenge. I have have an almost subliminal effect on the listeners. I have fre- been working in this verse form for a number of years, trans- quently disguised them by varying emphases, using run-on lating 17th century Spanish comedias into stageworthy contem- lines, and even splitting words to rhyme interior syllables. porary English. I am a great believer in verse drama, and I felt You’ll hear the rhymes I want you to, and the more regular it was time to test the depth of my belief; in other words, if rhythms will arise, when needed, surreptitiously and will feel, poetic plays were so great, could I write an original one in I hope, quite natural rather than jarring. It’s what I call rhyming verse? “stealth verse.” — D.M. The results of the experiment startled even me. I found that rather than limiting my choices, the verse was liberating. I could not write the first or most obvious thing I, or the char- acters, thought of; instead, we both had to follow the form and the rhyme where it needed to go — and sometimes it went strange places. It was as if the characters were guiding me, and I ended up writing scenes I never intended and never writing scenes which I had assumed, when I began, were inte- gral to the plot. It was a fascinating journey. For those who like the technical aspects of prosody: the verse is accentual rather than strictly metrical; that is, the number of stresses in a line creates the rhythm, not the number of stress- es and syllables. (Nonetheless, because of the natural rhythms of English, the lines will obviously tend towards the iambic.) Most of the lines in this play will be tetrameter (four-stress lines); the only exception is a scene in the second act, which is written in fairly standard iambic pentameter (five-foot lines).

PERFORMANCES MAGAZINE P13 THE CRAIG NOEL LEAGUE Paving a Bright Future for The Old Globe Through Planned Gifts
John Rebelo and Brenda Marsh-Rebelo have been longtime members of the Globe’s extended family. The two have been subscribers and contributors to the theatre for over twenty five years, and John is currently a member of the Globe’s Board of Directors. The two have fond memories of first attending the Globe. For Brenda, who was raised in London, she was thrilled to learn in 1981 that “little San Diego” offered such excellent theatre. John has always found the setting of The Old Globe in beautiful Balboa Park to be magical, and the two count the Globe a true treasure of the community. John and Brenda enjoy the diversity of productions offered at the Globe each year. “They make you think,” notes John and the couple finds their evenings with friends at the Globe to be “time very well spent.” The Rebelos have included The Old Globe in their estate plan. “We chose to become members of the Craig Noel League to play a small part in assisting the Globe to achieve its financial goals for the future. The Old Globe has given us great joy over the years, and we feel that it is our time to give something back.”
BRENDA MARSH-REBELO AND JOHN REBELO Brenda’s hopes for the Globe’s future include expanded education programming “to touch the lives of San Diego’s children, not only increasing their exposure to the arts, but to realize through the plays they will witness the variety of paths their own lives may take, and how carefully one must choose the paths he wishes to travel.” The Old Globe extends its sincere thanks to Brenda Marsh-Rebelo and John Rebelo for helping to pave a bright future for The Old Globe.
Many thoughtful friends are helping to secure The Old Globe’s future by leaving gifts in their wills and estate plans. We hope you might also be so moved to join them in helping to sustain the theatrical excellence of The Old Globe for years to come. We’d love to hear from you, so that we might recognize your generosity and thoughtfulness through membership in the Craig Noel League, our planned giving society. For information on leaving a lasting gift to the Globe, or to speak with one of our estate advisors, please contact Brad Ballard at (619) 231-1941 x2309 or via e-mail at [email protected].
CRAIG NOEL, Founding Director During Craig Noel's distinguished 67-year career with The Old Globe, the much-honored director has staged over 225 productions of all styles and periods. Craig has been associated with The Old Globe since its community-theatre inception in 1937 when he made his debut as an actor. Two years later he accepted his first directorial assignments, staging four of the season's seven productions. Since then, Craig has guided the organization through its metamorphosis from a community theatre of the highest standards to one of the nation's most successful not-for profit theatres. In doing so, he has enriched the quality of life in San Diego for generations of citizens who have become today's theatre-goers and arts supporters.
