WELCOME TO THE WELCOME TO 5TH FROM THE DESK OF DAVID ARMSTRONG EXECUTIVE PRODUCER AND ARTISTIC DIRECTOR CHANGING THE WORLD ONE MUSICAL AT A TIME Is it possible for the arts to change society? Can a book, film, opera, ballet, painting, play or musical have so great an impact that it can transform the way people think and feel? I believe it is highly unlikely that any work of art can create such a strong and instant epiphany. However, I do know that the arts have an innate ability to open our hearts, get under our skin, invade our psyches and subtly but irrevocably change us and our world. Many great artists have deliberately sought to change society through their work. The playwrights Ibsen, Shaw and Kushner; many 1960s singer/songwriters; some rap Mary Lennox, Elphaba and Tracy Turnblad, to name only and reggae artists; and Picasso and his monumental anti- a few.

TO HOLD AS T’WERE THE MIRROR UP TO HATE: TERRENCE MCNALLY’S RESPONSE TO THE CHRISTIAN RIGHT IN CORPUS CHRISTI by RICHARD KIMBERLY SISSON Under the direction of Matthew C. Roudané ABSTRACT In 1998, the Manhattan Theatre Club’s staging of Terrence McNally’s play Corpus Christi ignited protest and virulent condemnation from various religious and politically conservative groups which eventually led to the cancellation of the play’s production. This led to a barrage of criticism from the national theatre, gay, and civil rights communities and free speech advocates, including the ACLU and PEN, which issued a press releases about the cancellation that decried censorship and acquiescence by the theatre to neo-conservative religiously political groups.

  • AS YOU LIKE IT, the First Production of Our 50Th Anniversary Season, and the First Show in Our Shakespearean Act
    Welcome It is my pleasure to welcome you to AS YOU LIKE IT, the first production of our 50th anniversary season, and the first show in our Shakespearean act. Shakespeare’s plays have been a cornerstone of our work at CSC, and his writing continues to reflect and refract our triumphs and trials as individuals and collectively as a society. We inevitability turn to Shakespeare to express our despair, bewilderment, and delight. So, what better place to start our anniversary year than with the contemplative search for self and belonging in As You Like It. At the heart of this beautiful play is a speech that so perfectly encapsulates our mortality. All the world’s a stage, and we go through so many changes as we make our exits and our entrances. You will have noticed many changes for CSC. We have a new look, new membership opportunities, and are programming in a new way with more productions and a season that splits into what we have called “acts.” Each act focuses either on a playwright or on an era of work. It seemed appropriate to inaugurate this with a mini-season of Shakespeare, which continues with Fiasco Theater's TWELFTH NIGHT. Then there is Act II: Americans dedicated to work by American playwrights Terrence McNally (FIRE AND AIR) and Tennessee Williams (SUMMER AND SMOKE); very little of our repertoire has focused on classics written by Americans. This act also premieres a new play by Terrence McNally, as I feel that the word classic can also encapsulate the “bigger idea” and need not always be the work of a writer from the past.

  • 2008 Theatre Season List
    Adolpho Blaire’s 2018 Theatre Season List All Seasons announced as of January 31st, 2018 www.justdolphy.com 1 Welcome to this year’s THEATRE SEASON LIST - a special guide to the seasons and trends of the 2018 theatre season among regional and stock theatres throughout the United States. This list is a labor of love of mine and this also marks the 16th year since I began putting it together. As far as I know the information is correct but there have been mistakes in the past so always check with the theatre’s website as well as the AEA website, particularly for the union contract as these change from time to time. If you happen to find outdated or incorrect information, please contact me at [email protected] THE SEASON This season overwhelmingly finds it’s most popular title in Mamma Mia! with a whopping 33 showings. For plays, both A Raisin in the Sun and Noises Off have proved to be trendy with 8 theatres putting each title in their seasons. Even with a healthy amount of runs in 2017, newer titles like Million Dollar Quartet, Disney’s The Hunchback of Notre Dame, and The 39 Steps have continued to find interest around the country. First-run titles finding significant showings include Fun Home, Murder for Two, A Doll’s House Part 2, Shakespeare in Love, Skeleton Crew, Constellations, Heisenberg and The Wolves, – many of which should continue into 2019 seasons. And many beloved classics are making popular comebacks this season like Oklahoma! (celebrating its 75 anniversary), Singin’ in the Rain (also popular in 2017) as well as The Pirates of Penzance (which has rounded out the last 4 years as a popular title).
