Dwight-Englewood School Theatre Ticket Order Form Dwight-Englewood School Theatre Ticket Order Form All in the Timing is an eclectic collection of five of David Ives’ short one-act plays. In these comedies, his creative turn of a phrase, musical tempos, and whimsical humor give each play its own flavor and feel. The plays range from the esoteric, avant-garde homage to the music of Philip Glass in Philip Glass Buys a Loaf of Bread to the humorous evaluation of the “infinite Monkey theorem” by three chimps put to the task of proving it in Words, Words, Words. In Sure Thing, two strangers meet in a coffee shop and must restart all of the “moments” that don’t work as they try to find the perfect fit. The Philadelphia suggests that even if your body is in New York, your state of being may be in a “Philadelphia,” a place where the laws of physics and common sense just don’t apply. The Universal Language brings a shy young girl who stutters together with a con man looking to dupe people out of their money by teaching a made-up language called Unamunda. Something happens to the two of them as they find the healing magic of a “Universal Language.” Four of the five one-acts are a collaboration of Dwight-Englewood student and faculty directors. Please join us for this playful exploration of our fall play, All in the Timing.

  • News Release
    News Release Dobbs Ferry High School Theatre Art’s Class Presents David Ives’ Comedy All in the Timing Dobbs Ferry, N.Y., February 27. 2015—Dobbs Ferry High School Theatre Arts students are continuing their tradition of staging plays on the “cusp” of spring with this year’s production of David Ives’ wonderful comedy All in the Timing, on Saturday, March 7th at 7:00pm in the High School Auditorium ($5 suggested donation). Now in its third year and taught by Vocal Music & Theatre Director Georgia DeFalco, the class boasts two sections with 31 students (grades9-12), the biggest cast thus far. Previous productions have included the Laramie Project and Our Town. All in the Timing is a collection of six one-act plays (the updated collection contains 14) that were written between 1987-1993. Vincent Canby of The New York Times, who reviewed the original production said “Ives is wizardly…magical and funny…a master of language.” The show went on to win the John Gassner Playwriting Award. Here is a brief synopsis of each of the short plays provided by the Dramatists Play Service, which first published the collection in 1994. The Dobbs Ferry students will be performing the six original one-acts plus a seventh later addition. THE STORIES: SURE THING is a classic of contemporary comedy: Two people meet in a cafe and find their way through a conversational minefield as an offstage bell interrupts their false starts, gaffes, and faux pas on the way to falling in love. WORDS, WORDS, WORDS recalls the philosophical adage that three monkeys typing into infinity will sooner or later produce HAMLET and asks: What would monkeys talk about at their typewriters? THE UNIVERSAL LANGUAGE brings together Dawn, a young woman with a stutter, and Don, the creator and teacher of Unamunda, a wild comic language.

    ALL IIININ THE TIMING David Ives Playwright : David Ives was born in 1950 and is from South Chicago, Illinois. He attended Northwestern University and Yale School of Drama. Ives is currently living with his wife in New York. Director : Julianna Gibbins Performance date : May 28-31, 1997 Play : Six One-Act Comedies Sure Thing is a classic of contemporary comedy: two people meet in a café and find their way through a conversational minefield as an off-stage bell interrupts their false starts, gaffes, and faux pas on their way to falling in love. The Universal Language brings together Dawn, a young woman with a stutter, and Don, the creator and teacher of Unamunda, a wild comic language. Their lesson sends them off into a dazzling display of hilarious verbal pyrotechnics—and, of course, true love. Variations on the Death of Trotsky shows us the Russian revolutionary on the day of his demise, desperately trying to cope with the mountain-climber’s ax he’s discovered in his head. Words, Words, Words recalls the philosophical adage that three monkeys typing into infinity will sooner or later produce Hamlet , and asks: What would the monkeys talk about at their typewriters? Philip Glass Buys a Loaf of Bread is a parodic musical vignette in trademark Glassian style, with the celebrated composer having a moment of existential crisis in a bakery. The Philadelphia presents a young man in a restaurant who has fallen into “a Philadelphia,” a Twilight-Zone -like state in which he cannot get anything he asks for. His only way out of the dilemma? To ask the opposite of what he wants.

  • Vignettes That Return to Tease, Touch and Jab - the New York Times
    'Comedy of Errors' and Musical 'Love's Labour's Lost' on Shakespeare in the Park's Bill - NYTimes.com FEBRUARY 12, 2013, 2:00 PM ‘Comedy of Errors’ and Musical ‘Love’s Labour’s Lost’ on Shakespeare in the Park’s Bill By DAVE ITZKOFF Long before television sitcoms and the modern families they depict there was Shakespeare's "Comedy of Errors" and its farcical depiction of some convoluted bloodlines. The play -- about two pairs of twin brothers, separated at birth and reunited in adulthood -- is one of two works the Public Theater will present this summer as part of its annual Shakespeare in the Park series in a production featuring the comedy stars Jesse Tyler Ferguson ("Modern Family") and Hamish Linklater ("The New Adventures of Old Christine"). But which twin is each actor playing? The Public isn't saying just yet. It said on Tuesday that Mr. Ferguson (an alumnus of "The Merchant of Venice" and "The Winter's Tale," among others) would play Dromio, and Mr. Linklater (also of "Merchant" and "Winter's Tale," as well as Broadway's "Seminar") would portray Antipholus, in a production directed by Daniel Sullivan. Asked whether this was referring to Dromio and Antipholus of Ephesus, or Dromio and Antipholus of Syracuse - or both sets of characters -- a press representative for the Public said in an e-mail, "Jesse and Hamish are playing one set of twins, but Dan Sullivan has some surprises in store for the rest of the casting." The second production will be a new musical version of "Love's Labour's Lost," with songs by Michael Friedman and an adapted book by Alex Timbers.

Wednesday 9/16 @ 3:30-5:30pm - Audition Workshop Thursday 9/17 @ 3:30-6:30pm - Auditions for All In The Timing NPHS Auditorium 35 Pioneer Drive About the Play All In The Timing by David Ives Sure Thing: A man and a woman meet for the first time in a cafe, where they have an awkward meeting continually reset each time they say the wrong thing, until, finally, they romantically connect. Words, Words, Words: Three chimpanzees, named after famous authors and expected to write Hamlet, for the most part waste time engaging in pointless banter, while occasionally inspired to make grandiose literary allusions. The Universal Language: A man welcomes a naïve woman into his fraudulent language- learning course, in which he only speaks the invented language Unamunda; however, he confesses to the deception as he begins to fall in love with her. Philip Glass Buys a Loaf of Bread: A musical parody of minimalist composer Philip Glass. The Philadelphia: At a restaurant, a man is informed by a friend that his frustratingly unlucky day is the result of his ensnarement in an anomalous pocket of reality, called a "Philadelphia," in which he will only be fulfilled by asking for the opposites of what he wants. By the end, the man begins to feel content at last, only for his friend to be pulled also into the Philadelphia, while the waitress groans of her own entanglement in a “Cleveland." Variations on the Death of Trotsky: In comic fashion, revolutionary Leon Trotsky dies over and over again from a mountain-climber's axe-wound received many hours prior.
