P4 PERFORMANCES MAGAZINE Board of Directors

Dear Friends,

As the incoming Chair of the Board of Directors, it is my pleasure to welcome you to this evening’s performance and to begin my term at this important moment in the life of The Old Globe. For more than 70 years, the Globe has been recognized as one of the leading regional theatres in the United States for its world-class theatrical productions and educational outreach programs for the youth of San Diego.

We are now in the midst of a Capital and Endowment Campaign that will create the Conrad Prebys Theatre Center, including a replacement for the venerable Cassius Carter Centre Stage and a new education center, ensuring the future of our beloved Theatre for generations to come. For the past three years, I have had the pleasure of working with Lou Spisto and a team of dedicated board members in the development program to meet our financial goals. Accordingly, I would like to invite you to assist us in this challenging endeavor in any way possible.

This season, we are proud to introduce a new leadership team with Lou Spisto, Jerry Patch and Darko Tresnjak. These talented individuals will add new luster to the proud history of The Old Globe.

In his essay, “Shine on, Harvey Bloom: Why Allan Sherman Made Us Laugh,” Ken Kalfus remembers how Sherman “made Jewish humor about Jewish people mainstream humor”: “[Sherman’s song parodies] expressed Jews' apartness from mainstream American culture, at a time when the culture itself was about to go counter....The fact that many lis- teners besides myself barely recognized the songs on which Sherman's parodies were based - including, for heaven's sake, ‘The Battle Hymn of the Republic’ - suggests how distant we found ourselves from the supposed center of the culture.”

While visitors to the Borscht Belt may have felt sep- arated from the rest of the country, comics like Cohen and Sherman threw a more humorous light on the Jewish identity, bonding the Catskills guests further as a community. Ironically, vacationers came to the Borscht Belt less frequently as Jews became more assimilated into mainstream society in later decades, and eventually most resorts closed for good. But, for a brief period, the summers in the Borscht Belt represented more than just a vacation for the scores of Jews who came with their families. It was DANCING AT THE NEMERSONa place and time when they belonged. – Kim Montelibano Heil

AN EXCERPT FROM “THE PROFESSOR OF DESIRE,” BY PHILIP ROTH “Hey little Kepesh, come here,” say the guests. “Who do you want to be like when you grow up?” Temptation comes to me first in the conspicuous personage of Herbie Bratasky, social director, bandleader, crooner, comic and m.c. of my family’s mountainside resort hotel. When he is not trussed up in the elasticized muscleman’s swim trunks which he dons to conduct rumba lessons by the side of the pool, he is dressed to kill, generally in his two-tone crimson and cream-colored “loafer” jacket and wide canary-yellow trousers that taper down to enchain him just above his white, perforated, sharpie’s shoes. A fresh slice of Black Jack gum is at the ready in his pocket while another is being savored, with slow-motion sassiness, in what my mother derisively describes as Herbie’s “yap.” Below the stylishly narrow alliga- tor belt and the gold droop of key chain, one knee works away inside his trousers, Herbie keeping time to hides he alone hears being beaten in that Congo called his brain. Our brochure (from fourth grade on com- posed by me, in collaboration with the owner) headlines Herbie as “our Jewish Cugat, our Jewish Krupa – all rolled into one!”; further on he is described as “a second Danny Kaye,” and, in conclusion, just so that every- one understands that this 140-pound twenty-year-old is not nobody and Kepesh’s Hungarian Royale is not exactly nowhere, as “another Tony Martin.”...... In summer, I am under the demon drummer’s spell. Then Yom Kippur comes and Bratasky goes, and what good does it do me to have learned what someone like that has to teach a growing boy? Our -witzes, -bergs, and -steins are dispersed overnight to regions as remote to me as Babylon – Hanging Gardens called Pelham and Queens and Hackensack.

Philip Roth is the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of 26 novels, and is much admired by playwright Richard Greenberg.
