LETTER FROM ARTISTIC DIRECTOR DAVID IVERS

Happy Holidays, Arizona!

By now you’ve enjoyed a taste of the holiday season and hopefully remembered to give thanks to those around you with special attention to your loved ones. Hold them close. I truly wish you and yours great health and joy and offer goodwill to each of you as you not only take part in your chosen holiday rituals, but continue to be curious about the world around you.

I continue to LOVE this new home and am invigorated by our community and the artists and staff that make Arizona Theatre Company an incubator of ideas. Speaking of ideas: David Bennett, Director of Man Of La Mancha, had a good one. Curious about the world, adventurous at heart, he asked a few important “what ifs” that led us to his bold, fresh, and utterly inventive staging of this seminal musical. Inspired by Spain and its traditions, he brings La Mancha to us in yet to be imagined ways. While still embracing the narrative and the essential essence of our heroic characters, David and his terrific creative team put the orchestrations in the hands of the cast and the geography of the story in the bodies of the on-stage artists. His team brings this to Arizona Theatre Company’s home (and home to Dale Wasserman’s wife, Martha, who lives in Arizona). Our role here is to support artists of the highest caliber. To allow our collabo- rators to soar in ways that allow for a new lens on existing work while always honoring author’s intent. In this way, we remain curious. And we celebrate each other even as we celebrate the great canon of classics. Thank you for supporting us in this effort. YOU are creating avenues for artists. YOU are the essential ingredient to our success. We here at ATC build every inch of what you see on our stages. These staff members live among you, buy bread from the same stores, and care deeply about the work you see tonight. Like the characters that fill La Mancha, they are vigourous, adventurous, bold and humble.

As Cervantes celebrates his quest for freedom and dares to “dream the impossible,” we celebrate and dream WITH you. What a fitting time of the year to be looking ahead, making new goals and reaching for that which may have been unimaginable.

Happy Holidays, David

LETTER FROM MANAGING DIRECTOR BILLY RUSSO

Welcome to our third production of the 2017-2018 season, a soaring new look at the classic American musical, Man of La Mancha.

We are so grateful to the committed and passionate communities that make up Arizona Theatre Company’s audience (subscribers, donors, and new and repeat visitors alike). We appreciate how many of you serve as ambassadors for the work we do and how you help magnify our message of the importance of the theatre, and the arts in general, to the vibrant and thriving fabric of Arizona life.

To that extent, I am thrilled to announce a new arrangement that was made between the League of Resident Theatres (the venerated organization that represents professional regional theatres across the country, of which Arizona Theatre Company is the sole member representing our state), and United Scenic Artists, the union representing our enormously talented designers:

Audience members are now allowed to take photographs of the auditiorium and the stage before the show, after the show, and during intermission. Feel free to use them to post on your social media platforms! Please remember though, in no instance are photos allowed during the performance.

This is another way that you can help us spread the word about our productions and to share your love of the theatre with your friends and followers. We do ask that if you do this, you properly credit the artists whose work you are sharing in a form of: Scenic Design by William Bloodgood; Lighting Design by Mary Louise Geiger. It would be wonderful if you gave a shout out to Arizona Theatre Company’s production department, touting that the sets, lighting, cos- tumes, props, sound, and other physical elements of the production were built and realized IN Arizona and BY Arizonan artisans! Something in which we should all take enormous pride.

Again, I thank you for your support of our theatre and playing an essential role in the creation of innovative, ambitious, professional theatre in this great state of Arizona.

Best, Billy Russo Managing Director [email protected]

NOTE FROM THE DIRECTOR

“My man of La Mancha is not Don Quixote; he is Miguel de Cervantes.” - Dale Wasserman.

And so the playwright placed the artist at the center of his play. This Cervantes desperately needs his audience to ‘enter [his] imagination’ and see him as Don Quixote. He even invites them to become a part of the story – a dangerous proposition for individuals shut down by fear, isolation and cynicism. Can they find the courage to hope and dream again?

The primal power of humans joining together in drama and music is undeniable. Themes of indi- viduality, courage, nobility, sacrifice and grace resonate in Man of La Mancha. But for me, the true brilliance of La Mancha is the transformative power of storytelling. Beyond reason and logic, we all feel the necessity of character and narrative. It’s the essence of theatre.

An inspiration for our production is another great Spanish poet and playwright: Federico García Lorca. While working as a theatre director, Lorca developed an approach that he called ‘total theatre’: minimal scenic elements, props, costumes and staging; incorporating flamenco music and dance into the action. Lorca had a lifelong devotion to flamenco and Andalusian culture. He was executed by Franco’s forces in 1936.

Thank you for being here as a part of this story. Let’s come together in the spirit of Cervantes, Lorca, Wasserman, Leigh, and Darion. May we all find the courage to become our own man, woman, or person of La Mancha.

THEATRE INFORMATION

THE TEMPLE OF MUSIC AND ART The Temple of Music and Art is a beautifully refurbished 1927 theatre, built in the Spanish Colonial style that flavors so much of our city. ATC has identified the following services and policies to ensure your comfort and enhance your experience at the theatre.

THEATRE POLICIES Latecomers will be seated only at an appropriate and predetermined break in action. In order not to disturb patrons who are already enjoying the performance, latecomers may be seated in alternate locations until intermission. As a courtesy to our patrons and the actors, the use of cameras and recording devices is not permitted within the theatre. Please restrict cellular phone use to the courtyard only. Children under five are not permitted in the theatre during performances. Emergency calls may also be made to the House Manager’s direct line: 520-884-4868. Smoking is not permitted anywhere within the building. Designated smoking areas are located in the front of the theatre only. In the event of smoking onstage, a sign will be posted in the lobby.

ACCESSIBILITY SERVICES The theatre is equipped with an in-house infrared transmission system for use by patrons with partial hearing loss or limited range of hearing. Complimentary assisted listening headsets are available prior to every performance at the Box Office. Please be prepared to leave a driver’s license or other form of identification while using your headset. Every production is available in American Sign Language. For information on the dates of our ASL performances, please the Box Office. An in-house FM broadcast system is used to provide a running audio description of the movement and activities onstage for patrons with limited vision. Pre-show tactile tours of the backstage area and a pre-show narration about our building, the performers, and interpretive information about the play itself are available upon request. Contact the Box Office to make your reservation for the audio described performances. Coordinated with the action onstage, those in open-captioned seating will be able to read the play’s dialogue displayed in large green letters on an LED screen. For open-captioned performance dates, contact the Box Office. Large print and Braille are available for all performances in the House Manager’s office in the lobby of the theatre. Accessible seating is available via the Box Office for all performances. If you would like seating assistance at the theatre, please contact the House Manager at 520-884-4868.
