Katherine Owens will direct. David Rabe brings Anton Chekov’s spiritual mystery to vivid life. Tony and Obie award winning writer David Rabe is the author of such classic American contemporary plays as Stick and Bones, Hurlyburly, Streamers, In the Boom Boom Room and more. He’s also written screenplays for films such as I’m Dancing as fast as I can, The Firm and Casualties of War. Un- dermain returns to Rabe’s work after the acclaimed produc- tions of Rabe’s play Goose and Tom Tom, which Rabe at- tended in 1991. Kovrin, a young scholar exhausted to the point of madness by his studies decides to visit his childhood friend Tanya on her father's garden estate. The two fall in love and plan to marry. Kovrin tells Tanya the legend of the black monk whose image has been reflected in mirages for a thousand years and who will soon return in the flesh. One day in the garden, the black monk appears to the young man and holds the key to either enlightenment or total devastation. The cast for The Black Monk is: Garrett Schenck as Yegor Se- myonitch Pesotsky; Jonathan Brooks as Andrei Vasilich Kov- rin; Shannon Kearns-Simmons as Tanya; Newton Pittman as The Black Monk; Stefanie Tovar as Nadia; Richard Rollin as Orlov; Maryam Baig as Varvara Nikolaevna; Mikhail is to be announced; Parker Hornsby as Yakov; Ryan Lescalleet as ensemble.

The graceful flow from one to the other, and from the page to the stage, is remarkable. Mr. Rabe has heightened theatrical possibilities by extending descriptive passages into dramatic scenes that catch fire…The Black Monk is a heady event... Don't miss it.” -Alvin Klein, The New York Times ABOUT UNDERMAIN Undermain Theatre, founded in 1984, is a company of artists that performs new and experimen- tal works in Texas, New York, and Europe.

  • BEAUTY and the BEAST STUDY GUIDE  the Story of Beauty and the Beast Has Been Around Since 1740
    BEAUTY AND THE BEAST STUDY GUIDE The story of Beauty and the Beast has been around since 1740. A woman named Gabrielle-Suzanne Barbot de Villeneuve wrote the tale, titled La belle et la bête. The Disney movie is actually based on a later version of this story, written in 1756 by Jeanne-Marie Leprince de Beaumont that far DID YOU KNOW? surpassed Villeneuve’s in popularity. The original themes of the story were class disparity and country life as opposed to noble life. FOR FURTHER STUDY… Follow this link to read the original tale of Beauty and the Beast. Fill out this Venn diagram comparing Beaumont’s tale with the Disney version. https://www.pitt.edu/~dash/beauty.html TALE AS OLD AS TIME… Beauty and the Beast is one of the most beloved stories of all time. How many adaptations can you think of that follow this basic storyline? MORE ADAPTATIONS… Once Upon a Time, TV series Beauty and the Beast, 2017 Beastly, 2011 La Belle et la Bete, 1946 The Beautician and the Beast, 1997 HISTORICAL BACKGROUND There’s actually no concrete setting for Beauty and the Beast, but Disney settled on the 1750s as inspiration for this storybook tale. This is pre-revolution France, as the big French Revolution started in 1789. France was, however, facing large tensions between the bourgeoisie (wealthy) and the proletariat (poor). We can assume the king of all France during this time is Louis XV, a highly unpopular king due to his affairs, losing the territory of Canada during the Seven Years’ War, and just being overall a weak king.

  • Study Guide Prepared by Jeri Hammond and Ann Sorvari
    Disney’s Beauty and the Beast a Wheelock Family Theatre Study Guide prepared by Jeri Hammond and Ann Sorvari 200 Riverway │ Boston, MA 02215-4176 box office: 617.879.2300 │ www.wheelockfamilytheatre.org Be Our Guest at Wheelock Family Theatre’s Production of Disney’s Beauty and the Beast The story of Beauty and the Beast brings to Wheelock Family Theatre audiences a spunky, intellectually curious heroine in Belle. She is admirable from the first for her loyalty to her eccentric father, her love of reading (even though it brands her as “different”), and her refusal to accept a proposal of marriage from an arrogant and boastful nobleman. Over the course of the play, she learns that love sometimes comes from the least likely and least romantic of sources, that the surface is not the whole truth, and that home is where the heart is. Her Beast learns that love cannot be forced, that love means freeing, not caging, your beloved, and that true power comes from giving it away. These two are surrounded by an entertaining collection of characters—some comic, some caring, some evil, some beastly, some silly—who add spice to the central story and help underscore the overall message about the unselfish generosity of love. Welcome to the heartwarming world of this wonderful tale! On Your Way to the Theatre… Beauty and the Beast is a story with which many, or even all, students are likely to be familiar, especially in the Disney animated film version, which is the basis for the WFT production. Some students may be curious to see how a live stage production will deal with Lumiere, Mrs.

In the past fifty years, the tale has often been retold and subsequently expanded. These expansions include more characters and plot twists that make the story more interesting and appealing to contemporary audiences and writers alike. Primarily, the new characters and plot additions bring new depth to the titular characters. Overall, the two become more well-rounded and three-dimensional in contrast to the original archetypal and contrived characters they were in the original tale. While nothing is wrong with fairy tales in and of themselves, typical modern audiences crave stories with more depth and less contrived of a feel to them. The retellings are still contrived, as the general tale remains the same and the author is simply adding to it. The purpose of the additions is to make the story come across as less contrived. Through the examination of two books by Robin McKinley: Beauty and Rose Daughter; two books by Mercedes Lackey: The Fire Rose and Beauty and the Werewolf; as well as Disney’s Beauty and the Beast and Daniel Barnz’s Beastly, I explore the various approaches and how the story comes across in its new medium.

The idea of a beautiful woman falling in love with a man whom is hideous, or whom she is not allowed to look upon has stubbornly persisted into the twenty-first century, especially since Disney turned the story into an animated feature film in 1991. Both Beauty and the Beast take different forms in different cultures and evolve even more when the classic tales are compared to modern retellings.

  • Tale As Old As Time
    University of Iceland School of Humanities Department of English Tale as Old as Time Disenchanting the Beast B.A. Essay Karitas Marý Bjarnadóttir Kt.: 060297-2589 Leiðbeinandi: Dr. Jessica Murphy May 2020 ABSTRACT Representations of the beastly bridegroom have become entangled with their respective brides and female sexual desires. Modern stories of human brides and their animal grooms tend to favour the latter. This essay applies a feminist approach when exploring the evolution of the animal groom within the Beauty and Beast motif. It examines different representations of beastly grooms and brides and varying interpretations of female and male narrators and illustrators. The bear as the Beast is a common figure and evolving views towards the bear as a Beast over the centuries are explored. This essay discusses two exemplar stories for the Beauty and Beast motif, Apuleius’ “Cupid and Psyche” and Madame Leprince de Beaumont’s “Beauty and the Beast.” Comparisons are made between the two aforementioned works, as well as Disney’s 1991 and 2017 adaptations of Beauty and the Beast, the Nordic tale “East of the Sun and West of the ​ ​ Moon” and other works. This essay examines how and why the Beast’s character has transformed from a self-deprecating, gentlemanly creature to a complacent narcissist. In earlier versions the Beast is considered to be the other and a supporting character to a young girl’s ​ ​ maturation into womanhood. However, modern retellings have starred the Beast as the main protagonist. This essay explores these trends and their plausible causes by reflecting on the history of the animal bridegroom motif and the culture and time in which it was written.

These versions go all the way back to the 2nd century AD and all the way forward to the present. In these tales there is a trend from individuality and differences in the beginning, to uniformity in the middle, to a return to unique individual tales. This trend can be seen in the development of the characters of Beauty and Beast throughout the revisions, and by how the transformation at the end is portrayed.
