WELCOME
From Seattle Theatre Group, a non-profit arts organization
We are honored to host another visit of one of this region’s most beloved
Broadway musicals, WICKED. With each run of this show, we realize new
significance from the lessons in this story. At the core of this tale about Elphaba
and Glinda are simple misunderstandings that lead them on a divisive path.
In today’s world, misunderstandings are often at the core of heightened anger,
violence, and worse. What we once regarded as the “microwave” society has
evolved into a cyber space where people can and do, get away with levels of
bullying and mean-spirited opinion that was once unheard of. The effects of
these unfiltered actions can be devastating for a young person who has not
yet fully developed their confidence, self-esteem, and the understanding of
mutual respect. These are often the youth who are discarded and tucked away
behind the walls of labels like “at-risk”.
Seattle Theatre Group will launch a new program next year designed to
address the needs so many of our kids have for support in developing mutual
and self-respect, as well as positive life choices.
Next June, we launch STG AileyCamp, taking our long-standing relationship
with the Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater to another level, for the kids.
AileyCamp uses disciplined dance training, creative writing instruction,
personal development and communications workshops to deposit new skills
into young people who are traditionally not served in this way. For 6 weeks,
youth ages 11-14 will be provided transportation, meals and all camp classes
and services at no cost. The camp will take place at the Tukwila Community
Center and will serve youth from Seattle, south Seattle, Tukwila, and Tacoma.
STG AileyCamp will be the 10th site in the US for this program, which for us
will also serve to honor the memory of longtime Ailey leader, STG friend, and
Tacoma native, Calvin Hunt.
In the popular song Defying Gravity, Elphaba sings, “I’m through accepting
limits, cuz someone says they’re so, some things I cannot change, but til I try
I’ll never know.” This is our hope for the youth who will be a part of AileyCamp,
that they are given the opportunity to direct the course of their lives, and
without limits defy gravity and soar!
If you’d like to learn more about the Seattle Theatre Group AileyCamp, or lend
your support, go to stgpresents.org/education/aileycamp, or contact Maura
Ahearne at 206-467-5510, ext. 1148 ([email protected])
Enjoy the show!

S TOR I E S
AN INJURY.
A PARTNERSHIP.
ANOTHER SUMMIT.
I
WAS IN REMOTE Patagonia, about to make the
climb of my life, but an injured disc in my back
was flaring up again. I needed help. Dr. Krabak
consulted by email, helping me find safe medications
to get the pain under control. Even in that remote part
of the world, he was there for me.
When I injured my back about five years ago, Dr. Krabak
(UW Physician, UW Medical Center) is the reason it
didn’t end my career. As a professional climber, there’s
rarely a time when I can rest and let myself heal. And
because I’m always traveling, regular appointments are
nearly impossible. Dr. Krabak understands athletes like
me. So he works around my unmanageable schedule
and puts his experience to work finding safe and
effective ways for me to manage the pain and still
pursue my passion.
I think of him as my partner as much as my doctor. He’s
there for me when I need him, to keep me climbing for
as long as I can.

DANCE THIS is STG’s most beloved
dance program and is possibly the most
intense, bringing together scores of teen
performers from varying experiences to
share their culture through the art of dance.
Celebrating 17 years of collaboration, young
performers get the unique opportunity to
work with each other and with renowned
International dance artists for an experience
that increases professional acumen and
makes lasting memories. Past guest artists
have included Broadway professionals,
New York and L.A. award winning dancers,
Hubbard St. Dance Company, and Savion
Glover, to name a few.
In addition to the DANCE THIS performance, DANCE This Camp at Centrum
provides an opportunity for high school
students to study a wide range of dance
styles and techniques in a supportive, yet
challenging atmosphere. Each day includes
technique classes and repertory sessions, with
time for meals and exploring the Fort Worden
campus. At the end of the week, students
share their work at a Saturday showcase
for friends and family. The DANCE This
Camp at Centrum is open to students
entering grades 9-12 in Fall 2015 at all
levels of dance experience--from beginner to
advanced. Centrum is located at Fort Worden
State Park, Port Townsend, perched on the
Northeast tip of the Olympic Peninsula
offering 450 acres of sandy beaches, wooded
hills, wetlands, and a historic campus, with
stunning views of the Strait of Juan de Fuca
and the Olympic and Cascade ranges.

Don’t miss two chances to see Broadway
star Idina Menzel, in her critically acclaimed
solo concert in August and a reprisal of
her role in the Tony®-nominated Broadway
production IF/THEN this November. Tony®
Award-winning superstar Idina Menzel has
a diverse career that traverses stage, film,
television and music. Menzel’s voice can be
heard as Elsa in Disney’s global box office
smash Frozen, in which she sings the film’s
Oscar®-winning song “Let It Go.” After
Menzel’s performance of the multi-platinum
song at the 86th annual Academy Awards,
she made history as the first person with
both a Billboard Top 10 hit and a Tony®
Award for acting. Menzel earned her first
Tony® nomination for her role as Maureen
in the Pulitzer Prize winner RENT, and won
the award for her performance as Elphaba
in WICKED.
Menzel stars in IF/THEN: the contemporary new musical that follows two distinct
storylines in the life of Elizabeth, a city
planner who moves back to New York to
restart her life in this city of infinite possibilities. When her carefully designed plans

ESPERANZA SPALDING PRESENTS: EMILY’S D+EVOLUTION AT THE NEPTUNE, JULY 27, 2015.
GRAMMY® award-winning singer-composerbassist Esperanza (Emily) Spalding has announced
her newest project: Emily’s D +Evolution. Rekindling
her childhood interest in theater, poetry and
movement, this new project delves into a broader
concept of performance.
Originally conceived the day before her birthday,
during a “sleepless night of full moon inspiration”,
Emily’s D+Evolution will be performing all new material
that Esperanza says “unfolds as live musical vignettes.”
“Emily is my middle name, and I’m using this
fresh persona as my inner navigator. This project
is about going back and reclaiming uncultivated
curiosity, and using it as a compass to move forward
and expand.” says Spalding. “My hope for this group
is to create a world around each song. There are a
lot of juicy themes and stories in the music. We will
be staging the songs as much as we play them, using
characters, video, and the movement of our bodies.”
…a light, fizzy,
optimistic drive
that’s in her
melodic bass

DAKHABRAKHA is a world-music, “ethno chaos” performance ensemble,
whose work exists at the crossroads of Ukrainian folklore and theatre. Their name
means “give/take” in the old Ukrainian language. The group was created in 2004
by the avant-garde theatre director, Vladyslav Troitsky, and theatre work has left
an endelible mark on the band and their performances. DAKHABRAKHA imbues
traditional Ukrainian folk melodies with Indian, Arabic, African, Russian, and
Australian traditional instrumentation, which, along with their astonishingly
powerful and uncompromising vocal range, creates a trans-national sound rooted
in Ukrainian culture.
