2 MEASURE FOR MEASURE MEASURE FOR MEASURE 3 MY CSC PARTNER A Note from CSC's Artistic Director

People often get confused as to what exactly an Artistic Director and a Managing Director do. In the simplest sense, Artistic Directors concern themselves with the art and Managing Directors concern themselves with the business of making art. With the Chesapeake Shakespeare Company, those lines that separate Ian Gallanar the two get a little blurred. Why? Well, first of all, I don’t think it’s useful to pigeonhole the skills of people in that way. Additionally, just as I would not like to be excluded from the business decisions that our organization makes (because I think I have skills and knowledge that adds to the conversation, I would not want our Managing Director to be separated from creating the art. Therefore, more than most theatrical organizations, Lesley and I cross the divide between art and business.

On occasion, I ask Lesley to “produce” a show in our season. Essentially, she acts as Artistic Director on these productions that she “produces.” Usually, it a show for which she has a particular passion or one that she feels would make a timely impression on our audience. 2016’s Anne of the Thousand Days and 2018 A Winter’s Tale are the two most recent examples of this. (So, for these productions, Lesley serves as Managing Director and serves many of my functions as Artistic Director. One of these days, she might catch on that she’s doing double work on these and I get some time off, but until that day…).

Lesley thought Measure for Measure might have something specifically to say about the current social dialogue. I think she’s right. Shakespeare’s plays can resonate differently at different times in the history of their being presented. I think this play might do just that. I think it has something to contribute to the modern discourse of sexual politics. I am so glad that we are presenting this play at this particular time.

Lesley and I would like to say thanks for coming to see Measure for Measure. We’re glad you’re here.

4 MEASURE FOR MEASURE SHAKESPEARE’S #METOO PLAY A note from the Managing Director and Measure for Measure Producer

Sometimes I think I’ve seen more productions of Measure for Measure than any other Shakespeare play. The first was one of those 1980s BBC video productions. I just stumbled on it and I was knocked out, though I was just a teenager, by Isabella’s Lesley Malin story and this complex, dramatic play. After that, I took every opportunity to see it—productions outdoors in parks, productions in London or in New York, community theatre productions, productions at Shakespeare's Globe (with the great Mark Rylance).

And back in 2004, Chesapeake Shakespeare Company did our own workshop production in the black box theatre at the Howard County Center for the Arts, with then and now company members Christopher Niebling (director), Valerie Fenton (producer), Scott Alan Small (the Duke) and…well, me! We did four performances for 217 people and had ticket sales of $2,000—enough to pay our expenses. We’ve sure come a very long way in fifteen years!

No matter where or how it is staged, Measure for Measure is always compelling. Isabella’s voice rings true across the centuries. Angelo’s perfidy is sadly confounding. The Duke’s behavior is perplexing but somehow, you want him to pull off his complicated schemes. And the comic characters’ conniving would fit in just fine in any city street—be it Vienna or Baltimore.

Now that #MeToo has further deepened how seriously we view sexual harassment, Measure for Measure is more topical than ever. People laugh, thinking that I’m joking when I say it’s Shakespeare’s #MeToo play—as if sexual harassment was a recent phenomenon. And what do we do with a story about sexual blackmail that Shakespeare clearly considered a comedy?

I don’t think a play has roused so much passionate discussion with our community since, perhaps, . Either our promotional image was too disturbing or brilliantly distilled. Our intimacy choreographer was on hand for a scene of emotional violence that features almost no physical contact. What do we do when Shakespeare’s heroine is silent at the end…do we interpret her silence as present-day politics practically demands, or do we make room for other perspectives?

Measure for Measure’s mirror up to our natures is different yet again in 2020. I’m eager to hear what you think.

Lesley Malin, Managing Director

MEASURE FOR MEASURE 5 6 MEASURE FOR MEASURE MEASURE FOR MEASURE 7 of Periander, the tyrant of Corinth, developed a strong desire for her son. She persuaded him to take a lover, but insisted that the union take place in the dark, and substituted herself for the woman.

As time went on, Periander began to fall in love with his secret lover and one night brought in a lamp to reveal her identity. Horrified by his dis- covery, he went mad, attempted to kill his mother, and killed many of his citizens. What is disturbing about this tale is not just the incest, but also the violence involved in the deception, and the damage that it causes. This example highlights that the “bedtrick” involves sex through deception, sex without consent. This approach to the “bedtrick” is corroborated by a rare real-life instance of the deception: in 2009 a sleeping California woman woke up and had sex with a man she presumed was her boyfriend, but was in fact a stranger who had sneaked in when he saw her boyfriend leave. The courts found the impersonator guilty of “rape-by-fraud.”

What does it mean for Measure for Measure if we recognize the “bedtrick” as a form of rape? If we understand Angelo to have been raped by Mar- iana, a rape orchestrated by the Duke, in cahoots with Isabella, then the play’s resolution is darker and more disquieting than is often realized, even by those who view the ending as problematic.

It is perhaps a fitting punishment for Angelo — fitting that the man who thinks that he has committed rape is himself raped — measure for measure — but is it a just one? This raises the larger question of how rapists should be punished. In our society there is wild disagreement about this. Some ar- gue for tougher punishments, while acknowledging that wealthy white men tend to be treated more leniently in the courts than poorer people and people of color. Feminist Germaine Greer, in contrast, has recently argued for the punishment for rape to be lessened — perhaps two hundred hours of community service, she suggests, and an “R” tattoo imposed on the rapist’s hand, arm or cheek.

WHAT HAPPENS IN MEASURE FOR MEASURE Vienna is teeming with brothels and loose morality, but the Duke fears to use his authority to clean up the city. He departs hurriedly for Poland, leaving his deputy, Angelo, in charge. Angelo is at first reluctant, but he soon starts to make changes. Changing the law A young man, Claudio, gets the girl he intends to marry, Juliet, pregnant. Under a forgotten old law that Angelo has just reinstated, Claudio is arrested and sentenced to death. Angelo revives other harsh laws and threatens to demolish all the brothels. Meanwhile, the Duke returns to the city in disguise as a Friar. Lucio and other patrons of Mistress Overdone's brothel are shocked to hear of Clau- dio's fate. Lucio hurries to Claudio's sister, Isabella, who is about to become a nun, and she agrees to beg Angelo to spare her brother. A bargain Angelo, struck with a sudden passion for Isabella, offers to spare Claudio's life if Isabella will sleep with Angelo; appalled, she refuses to give up her chastity and endanger her immortal soul. When Isabella visits her brother and explains Angelo's offer and her refusal, he begs her to submit. The disguised Duke overhears their conversation and afterwards tells Claudio to prepare for certain death. Immediately afterward, he explains to Isabella a plan to save Claudio's life if they can persuade Angelo’s discarded ex-fiancee, Mariana, to secretly take Isabella’s place, consummat- ing his marriage contract with his unhappy ex. Mariana agrees and Angelo sleeps with Mariana, fooled into thinking she is Isabella. Meanwhile in prison... Constable Elbow brings Pompey into the prison for being a pimp. Lucio meets the disguised Duke and pretends that he knows the Duke well, describing him as immor- al. The Duke is outraged and determined to get revenge. Mistress Overdone is also imprisoned and discloses that Lucio has made one of her prostitutes pregnant and refused to marry her. The Provost of the jail receives instructions from Angelo, demanding that Claudio be put to death at once, breaking his bargain with Isabella. Luckily, another prisoner has just died of a fever, and his head is sent to Angelo instead of Claudio's. The dis- guised Duke tells Isabella that Claudio has been executed but says she will be able to speak to the Duke personally about Angelo.

Once the Duke's 'return' is announced, Angelo regrets executing Claudio. Isabella publicly denounces Angelo, but the Duke pretends to disbelieve her and has her arrested. Watch the rest of Act Five to hear what happens next. . .
