By Resident dRamatuRg PhiliPPa Kelly By the year 2000 the Bruns had been open for nine years, drawing to its open-air amphitheater people from all over the East Bay. Under the guidance of Artistic Director Michael Addison the theater had flourished, its board now professionalized, meaning that the Artistic Director’s decisions were answerable to the board rather than to the full company of artists. Addison moved away in 1997 to a new life in Mendocino, and after four years of leadership by Joe Vincent, a popular actor from the company, the board completed a nationwide search and invited Jonathan Moscone, graduate of Yale School of Drama and more recently Associate Director at the Dallas Theater Center, to be its Artistic Director.

During his initial season at Cal Shakes, Moscone made his first programming statement, directing a simpatico play, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead, a modern riff on Hamlet. The company continued to produce one non-Shakespeare play per year until 2005, when Moscone directed David Edgar’s two-part adaptation of The Life and Adventures of Nicholas Nickleby (now fondly remembered as “Nick Nick”). The success of this production kicked off a seasonal tradition of two Shakespeare and two non-Shakespeare plays. Moscone has, over the last fourteen years, made his signature in Shaw, Wilde, and Chekhov, which marry beautifully with his intuitive sense of timing, spectacle, humor, and poignancy.

When writing the letter of nomination for Jonathan for the Zelda Fichandler Award in 2009 (a coveted national award for directorial innovation, which he won), I distilled a vision of his especial qualities as follows:

I have seen the way Jonathan prepares the script for a show; the way he draws on his intellectual and aesthetic resources; the way he works with the design team; the way he rehearses with actors; the way he edits a program (with astonishing accuracy during a five- minute cigarette break) and the way he works with the public…The reason for his success is threefold: the strength of his artistic vision, which guides artistically strong and often daring choices; the loyalty of actors, staff and crew to this vision; and the power of Jon’s personality, which is written into every feature of the theater’s activities (including the artwork for the meadows, which he personally selects each year), and which creates an enduring and expanding subscriber base.

Five years later, I can’t put it any better. Jonathan continues to push our company’s boundaries, and we thrive.

In 2003, after the company changed its name from “Festival” to “Theater” to reflect its year-round activities, it took on the informal name of “Cal Shakes.” Google searches sometimes yield recipes for low-calorie health drinks, which we take as an unintended invitation to our patrons and sponsors to support us in good health for decades to come. The word “support” resonates in more serious ways, however, when thinking of all we’ve been given over the last fourteen years from the Board, the new communities, the loyal patrons who came through the tunnel with us—and, more than anyone, perhaps, from the two managing directors who have worked with Jonathan to build his vision. In 2001 Debbie Chinn joined the company, ushering in a period of strengthened professionalism, and focusing on the integration of our artistic efforts with an educational program that could “nourish young people and adults in the work of life.” The company’s Artistic Learning program has yielded summer conservatories, school classroom residencies, student matinees, beautiful and free teacher’s guides to shows, and a whole raft of activities that serve young people from a broad range of communities and backgrounds.

Moscone and Chinn also together established the New Works/New Communities (NW/NC) Initiative, launched in 2003 with the aim of engaging marginalized communities while creating new works of theater based on the classics. Hamlet: Blood in the Brain was the first major NW/NC project, partnering Cal Shakes with renowned multicultural playwright Naomi Iizuka and San Francisco’s Cam- po Santo + Intersection for the Arts. The production relocated Shakespeare’s Hamlet to the 1980s-era drug-ravaged streets of East Oakland. It included interviews with former drug lords; writ- ing workshops in schools, juvenile halls, and churches; and Q&A panels attended by the public. Also through NW/NC, Cal Shakes began a partnership with Write to Read, a juvenile hall literacy program run by the Alameda County Library, holding workshops Clockwise from left: Sonya Taylor, poet and Community Participation Coordinator for Cal Shakes, performs at the 2014 Gala.

They poured resources into the Artistic Learning department, which is now led by Clive Worsley, an actor, THE FUTURE former Artistic Director of Town Hall Theater Company in Lafay- ette, and, for many years, teaching artist in the program. And in 2009 they built on the New Works/New Communities foundation with thE to join formally with Intersection for the Arts (led by Deborah CAL shAkEs Cullinan, and in close collaboration with Campo Santo Artistic Di- rector Sean San Jose) to create the Triangle Lab, the aim of which LEgACy CiRCLE. is to experiment with ways to integrate arts into community life. Rebecca Novick was hired as the Lab’s program director in 2011, and her role has developed into Director of Artistic Engagement.

In the last two years, Cal Shakes launched an organization-wide diversity and inclusion initiative, growing out of the company’s desire to matter more to more people. Our fundamental aim is to put our money where our mouths are—inspiring diverse communities via all aspects of produc- MosConE PERMAnEnT tion and organization. How attention to diversity can expand theater’s impact on the life of the EndowMEnT LEAd donoRs Bay Area is still territory that is partly uncharted. Shakespeare is helping us in our journey, as Ellen & Joffa Dale Moscone has so eloquently put it: Sharon & Barclay Simpson Look to Shakespeare.

10 CALIFORNIA SHAKESPEARE THEATER WWW.CALSHAKES.ORG A Midsummer Night’s Dream: A SYNOPSIS WEDDING PLANS: Theseus and Hippolyta preside over two planned weddings: their Dream young own, and that of Demetrius and Hermia, the latter arranged by Hermia’s father Egeus. A ROADBLOCK: Hermia has other ideas— enter Lysander, man of her dreams. Demetri- us is adored—but by Helena, not Hermia. A SOLUTION: Lysander and Hermia plan to elope to the forest, travelling 20 leagues to the home of a wealthy and benefi cent aunt. A THIRD WHEEL—now a fourth wheel too: 10 S Helena, silly girl, has alerted Demetrius to this plan, hoping he’ll fi nally abandon his dreams of Hermia and choose her instead. But Demetrius follows the two lovers into the forest, and Helena follows Demetrius. A PLAY IS BORN: Deep in the forest, fi ve workmen rehearse an amateur theatrical, the doomed love affair of yramus and Thise, which they hope to bring to Athens to offer the Duke in celebration of his wedding. MORE TANGLES IN THE FOREST: Oberon and Titania, King and Queen of the fairy world, need marriage counseling. Oberon turns to the mischievous Puck, and orders him to sweep a love potion over Titania’s eyes to make her fall in love with the fi rst awful sight she sees—this way she’ll learn to appreciate the Big Man who is her husband. Dream WEEPING AND SLEEPING. Puck fi nds his love potion and comes across Helena weep- ing and Lysander sleeping. He thinks Lysand- er has spurned her, and wipes his potion over Lysander’s eyes, not seeing Lysander’s true love sleeping nearby. Lysander wakes— in love with Helena! IF IN DOUBT, TRY AGAIN: Puck sweeps the potion over the sleeping Demetrius. Now he’s in love with Helena too! The girls now hate each other. IN LOVE WITH AN ASS: Titania also gets a dose of the love potion—and awakens to fall in love with an ass—Bottom, the weaver, who is wearing an ass’s head. LOVING AND FIGHTING WEAR YOU OUT. All sleep again—the lovers, Titania, Bot- tom—and Puck gets another chance to set things right. Theseus and Hippolyta come to the forest to hunt deer, and fi nd everyone asleep. LET’S ALL GET MARRIED: And they all do. And let’s watch fi ve hard-handed knaves play a hilarious tragedy: Why not yramus and Thise hits the stage.

Theseus, meanwhile, compromises the law of the land at the end of the play so that the two sets of young lovers can marry whom they wish, rather than follow the law, which dictates that a father can choose his child’s spouse. Therefore, Hermia, Helena, Lysander, and Demetrius get to marry for love. This may be signifi cant since Theseus does not have the option himself of marrying purely for love. Neither did most Elizabe- than-era royal marriages, in which love often had nothing to do with marriage and was usually some sort of foreign policy treaty or domestic consolidation of pow- er. His compromise is that he is showing selfl essness and mercy— just not directed to his wife. Admittedly, these power imbal- ances are a great deal to pave over in order to fi nd a “happy ending” in Shake- speare’s comedy. And yet, as humans, our craving for that happy ending is understandable.
