PERFORMANCES MAGAZINE 3 Board of Directors

Thanks to the generous and continued support from donors, subscribers and attendees like you, The Old Globe remains the sixth-largest not-for- profit theatre in the country and, with a $20 million budget, one of the most successful and financially stable. We rely greatly on contributed income, and your gifts in 2010 totaled more than $7 million — a number that must not only be sustained but continue to grow along with the institution.

This year, the Globe faces extraordinary challenges in fundraising from deep cuts in government funding and corporate foundation support. We’re encouraged, however, that individuals are helping to make up the difference. Last year support from Circle Patrons, the Globe’s major gifts program, increased considerably, a trend we hope your generosity will help us carry on.

The Globe’s solid financial performance in difficult economic times testifies to the consistent excellence of our productions, the steadfast support of our patrons and the professionalism of our magnificent staff. But we must not rest on our laurels. Your attendance and your gifts — especially your gifts — will tell the tale of 2011. I am confident that you will write the script for an even greater future at The Old Globe.

Thank you, and welcome to the regional premiere of August: Osage County.

Sincerely,

14 PERFORMANCES MAGAZINE Raising the The set you will see at this performance of August: Osage County is the third multi-story house on the Globe stages this season, following Brighton Beach Memoirs, Broadway Bound and Rafta, Rafta…. These houses don’t just provide a location for the characters in their plays; each structure becomes its own character Roofs and provides clues to the lives and struggles of the people within it. Below, the three scenic designers for these plays share their thoughts and inspirations.

Ralph Funicello | Brighton Beach Memoirs and Broadway Bound When director Scott Schwartz and I first discussed ideas for the set for the plays Brighton Beach Memoirs and Broadway Bound, we both noticed that, although the set had to function as an absolutely real dwelling, the lead character, Eugene, speaks about half of his lines directly to the audience. He is literally telling them the story of what went on in this house during two important periods in his life. We wanted the house to be another character from his remembered past, just like the other members of his family. We approached this in two major ways. For Brighton Beach Memoirs, everything inside the house was carefully created to evoke an accurate vision of life in the early 1940s for a middle HENRY DiROCCO HENRY Ralph Funicello's set for Brighton Beach Memoirs. class home in that section of Brooklyn. We wanted the house to convey the warmth and protective feeling a boy has toward his childhood home. In Broadway Bound, the time has moved forward a decade. Now the house, like the family, feels a bit stale and cold. It is no longer a refuge to come home to. The now-grown sons are just waiting to leave and get on with their lives. Our big idea was to place this very real house (complete with a second story exterior wall that could close off or reveal the upper bedrooms) alone in the middle of a shiny black stage and to have the actors enter and leave this world through the aisles in the audience. When Eugene stands in the audience looking at this house, this image from his childhood, he then turns and faces the audience as if to say, “Yes, that is what it looked like. That’s how I remember it.”

Alexander Dodge | Rafta, Rafta… The house in Rafta, Rafta… is a typical working class English terrace house in suburban Manchester. The houses are generally two-story modest brick buildings attached in long rows. Here, the audience ALEXANDER DODGE Alexander Dodge's set for Rafta, Rafta.... views the life of the family unfold as if through the wall of the adjoining house. Much is made about the lack of privacy throughout the play, so the shell of the house is quite thin, and upstage the walls are actually made of scrim. The orange surround and over-scaled marigold curtain evoke the spirit of the wedding celebration that permeates the house as well as the play itself.

David Zinn | August: Osage County The house is based on a real house that Sam Gold, the director, and I found on a research trip to Oklahoma. It’s a Craftsman – sort of on the later-side of that period (an early 20th century style of architecture and design). The house is a huge character in the play— its oppressiveness, how closed off it is to the outside, its darkness in relation to the vast brightness of an Oklahoma summer. All of these things made us feel it was important for the house to seem very real, filled with the detail of these characters and their history, the history of the house, of their renovation and occupation.
