    Annual Report Fiscal Year 2021 Sara Porkalob in Dragon Mama. Produced by American Repertory Theater in 2019, virtually released in 2020. Photo by Gretjen Helene. Founded over forty years ago, Theatre Forward fosters collaboration between America’s prominent regional theatres, connects them to funding and resources on a national level, and advocates for the arts in America. The Theatre Forward cohort comprises a network of 19 leading theatres in as many separate cities, providing an efficient conduit for funders to support important cultural institutions and their communities on a national level. 505 Eighth Avenue, Suite 2504 | New York, NY 10018 | T. 212 750 6895 | www.theatreforward.org TO THEATRE FORWARD FUNDERS At this writing it has been fifteen months since the COVID-19 pandemic forced theatres across the country to close. We imagined it would be a period of weeks, or perhaps a few months, before normal operations would resume. As time passed and the severity of the pandemic became more apparent, theatre executives courageously faced the unavoidable and made difficult but necessary decisions to downsize and, in many cases, to cut salaries for remaining staff, and take programs and fundraising events online. During this dark period, Theatre Forward and its valued partner-donors remained committed to providing funds for general operating support, workforce stabilization, education programs, and the advancement of equity, diversity and inclusion (EDI) within the theatres and their communities. In May of 2020, Theatre Forward was proud to administer a $1 million COVID-19 relief grant program on behalf of the Hearst Foundations. And in the fiscal year ending June 30, 2021, grants and donations from individuals, corporations and foundations made it possible for Theatre Forward to distribute $870,000 to its member theatres.

  • The Little Foxes Program
    THE LITTLE FOXES 2016/17 SEASON We are deeply saddened by the recent passing of Zelda Fichandler, Arena Stage’s co-founder and first Artistic Director. She was 91. Zelda was an extraordinary woman and brilliant theater professional who transformed American theater with her vision and artistry. From Artistic Director Molly Smith: Zelda is the mother of us all in the American theater. It was her thinking as a seminal artist and architect of the not-for-profit resident theater that imagined resident theaters creating brilliant theater in our own communities. A revolutionary idea. Her thinking and her writing have forged the way we were created and the resident nature of our movement. She is irreplaceable but lives on in every single not-for-profit theater in America — now over 1,500 strong. Her legacy stretches from coast to coast. Arthur Miller wrote in the preface to Arena’s 40th anniversary keepsake book (The Arena Adventure) that Arena had the makings of a national theater for the U.S. Without Zelda and Margo Jones and Nina Vance there would not be this robust American theater landscape. So, it was a vision like Zelda’s that could lead to a time where our vision at Arena for American work can thrive. She had a remarkable openness to new ideas and most of all, to always, always support the artist. Our thoughts and prayers go out to her family and friends who knew her best. The Lillian Hellman Festival is dedicated to the memory of Zelda Fichandler. 2 2016/17 SEASON Remembering Zelda Fichandler1924 - 2016 Celebrate the Life of Zelda Fichandler The Words of a Visionary The Molly Smith Study Sunday, October 23 2:00 PM - 7:00 PM Public Memorial Service The Fichandler Monday, October 24 2:00 PM - 4:00 PM VISIT ARENASTAGE.ORG/ZELDA FOR MORE INFORMATION.

  • By Tony Taccone and Bennett S
    BY TONY TACCONE AND BENNETT S. COHEN, ADAPTED FROM THE NOVEL BY SINCLAIR LEWIS SOUND DESIGN AND MUSIC BY PAUL JAMES PRENDERGAST DIRECTED BY LISA PETERSON DEAR FRIENDS, Four years ago, in the lead-up to the 2016 election, Berkeley Rep produced Tony Taccone and Bennett Cohen’s adaptation of Sinclair Lewis’ frighteningly prescient novel. With a desire to see the story reach the widest possible audience, and celebrating the impulse that led the wpa in 1936 to share the original stage version of Lewis’ novel for free with 21 theatres across the country, Berkeley Rep offered the rights to Tony and Bennett’s adaptation to theatres, community centers, universities — anyone who wanted to put together their own production or reading. And now, in 2020, this story feels all the more vital, and the need to share it widely even more compelling. I am honored that more than 75 organizations from more than 20 states have partnered with us to share this production of It Can’t Happen Here for free with their audiences and communities. We are joined in this effort by long-time theatre colleagues, by universities from Howard in Wash- ington, DC to Saint Cloud State in Minnesota (near Lewis’ hometown), by libraries, community centers, and radio stations. I am deeply grateful to Tony and Bennett, director Lisa Peterson, sound designer Paul James Prendergast and his small but mighty team, and this extraordinary cast who have collaborated across miles and time zones, through wildfires and new technology, for their conviction that the- atre matters, that narrative helps us to see the world more clearly, and that together we have the capacity to effect change.

Printed in the U.S.A. LONG WHARF THEATRE | 2018–19 3 from the MANAGING DIRECTOR Dear Friends, Welcome to The Roommate, the first show of our 2018 – 2019 season! Many of us, perhaps all of us, have been in a place in life where we have reached a point of stasis. Maybe we look backwards more than we look forward, maybe we think that our greatest days are behind us, and maybe our emotional baseline is one of ennui or melancholy. We are “stuck in a rut,” going through the routine, but not feeling any new energy or optimism. Then, someone comes into your life to shake up your world. Perhaps that person is a love interest, but often it is someone you may not have much in common with on the surface, but shares the same inner world. One of my grandmothers comes to mind, and in her case, it was also a roommate who changed her. She had a number of health problems, and my 90-year-old grandfather took care of her.
