BACKSTAGE
Behind the scenes in local and national theatre
by Josh B. Wardrop
Broadway Braces for
This Year’s Tony Ride
Hardcore theater fans have June 13 circled on
their calendars, and not because it’s the date of a
big Broadway premiere. Rather, that’s the night
that the biggest stars from The Great White Way
assemble at Radio City Music Hall to give welldeserved kudos to the year’s top dramas, comedies
and musicals at the 64th annual Tony Awards.
The shows nominated for Best Play are a
diverse group, including: In the Next Room, or
the Vibrator Play, a sexually charged comedy
set during the Victorian era; Next Fall, a relationship drama about a gay couple which overcame commercially unfriendly factors like a
script full of theological discussions and a cast
bereft of big stars to score a Tony nod; Red,
which features Alfred Molina’s Tony-nominated
star turn as renowned artist Mark Rothko; and
Time Stands Still, a drama by Pulitzer Prizewinner Donald Margulies about a photojournalist dealing with the after-effects of covering the
war in Iraq.
The nominees for Best Musical are
American Idiot, the stage adaptation of the
Grammy Award-winning album by multi-platinum pop-punk trio Green Day, produced by the
team behind 2006’s similarly young-skewing
Spring Awakening; Fela!, a biography of
Nigerian musician and civil rights activist Fela
Kuti, co-produced by Shawn “Jay-Z” Carter,
Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith; Memphis,
an exploration of rock ’n’ roll and race in the
1950s by Bon Jovi keyboardist David Bryan and
playwright Joe DiPietro (which made its world
premiere at the North Shore Music Theatre in
Beverly in 2003); and Million Dollar Quartet,
a show inspired by the famed 1956 recording session that united four young musicians named
Elvis Presley, Johnny Cash, Carl Perkins and
Jerry Lee Lewis.
In the “everything old is new again” department, nominations for Best Revival went to
4

in the Play category, and to Finian’s Rainbow,

Director’s Note
Dear A.R.T. Friends and Family,
I can hardly believe we are at the final production of the
2009/10 season. Thank you for your partnership in
making this season such an exciting ride.
It has been over two years since I first began working with
Willie Reale, Rick Dresser, and Rob Reale to bring this
musical to life. I am thrilled to be able to share this world
premiere with the A.R.T. community.
Johnny Baseball tells a story not just about baseball but about America. The
show sheds light on our complicated social history through the lens of our
cherished national pastime. It is a passionate story about the love of the game—
and the hopes and dreams of our country.
You are playing an invaluable role by joining us in the theater as the first
audience to help bring Johnny Baseball to life. Thank you for being a part of
this journey.
With my deepest gratitude,

Authors’ Note
Johnny O’Brien is a fictional character. There was a player called
Johnny O’Brien who played second
base for Pittsburgh, St. Louis, and
Milwaukee in the 1950s. His twin
brother Eddie O’Brien also played for
Pittsburgh. They were the first twins
to play on the same team in a major
league game. There is no connection
between this Johnny O’Brien and our
character. We just liked the name.
There was also a major leaguer
called Fred Snodgrass, who played From left: Willie Reale (lyricist), Robert Reale (composer), and
for the Giants and the Braves Richard Dresser (book). Photo: Kati Mitchell.
between 1908 and 1916. There is no
relation between him and our character. Again, we liked the name.
The Worcester Boosters played in the Eastern League 1919–1921. They were not extant in
1948. We have created a fictional affiliation between the Boosters and the Red Sox.
Willie Mays did not try out at Fenway Park in 1948 or ever. The highly touted Mays was
playing for the Negro League’s Black Barons, which had a lease agreement with the
Birmingham Barons, a Red Sox affiliate. As part of this agreement the Sox had the exclusive
rights to sign Mays. The Sox had been strongly encouraged to scout him. Larry Woodall, a
scout for the Sox, was in Alabama to see Mays, but there was rain and he refused to stay
until it passed. He was reported as saying, “I am not going to waste my time waiting for a
bunch of niggers.”
In another accounting of the Mays debacle, a scout named George Digby told the Red
Sox that Mays was the greatest single talent he had ever seen. Joe Cronin, the manager at the
time, was reported as saying, “We have no use for the boy at this time.”
For dramatic purposes we have Willie Mays trying out at Fenway Park in 1948. But the
inspiration for this is drawn from a notorious chapter in Red Sox history.
Following World War II and the heroic military service of many African-Americans, there
was pressure on the Red Sox to integrate. The most persistent of their critics was a Boston
City Councilman named Isadore Muchnick, who threatened to challenge the waiver of
Boston “Blue Laws” which allowed the Red Sox to play games on Sunday. In response to
pressure from Muchnick and several sports writers, including Wendell Smith, Doc Kountze,
and Dave Egan, the Red Sox held a tryout for three Negro League stars on April 16, 1945.
After several delays, Jackie Robinson, Marvin Williams, and Sam Jethroe worked out for Red
Sox management. It is said that a voice was heard from the stands yelling, “Get those niggers
off the field!” While some believe it was owner Tom Yawkey, General Manager Eddie Collins,
or Manager Joe Cronin, it has never been conclusively proven and some historians would
argue that such a statement was not in keeping with Eddie Collins’ character. We have combined Isadore Muchnick with these sportswriters in the fictional character of Kaplan.
Institutional racism was not the sole provenance of the Boston Red Sox. The Yankees
reportedly refused to give Willie Mays a tryout, despite glowing reports on his talent from
the scouting community. Other teams that notably passed on Willie Mays include the
Pittsburgh Pirates and the Boston Braves. Many believe that Willie Mays was the best ever to
play the game.

Program Notes
Tonight’s Lineup: A Crash Course on Red Sox History
By Brendan Shea
For baseball rookies, the following is a digest of the important figures,
essential factoids and historical moments in Red Sox history.
KEY PLAYERS
George Herman “Babe” Ruth
Born on February 6, 1895
in Baltimore, Maryland in
a poor waterfront neighborhood. In 1902, he was
sent to the St. Mary’s
Industrial School for Boys
(a reformatory) and legally
removed from his parents’ care. In 1914, Babe
debuted with the Boston Red Sox, where he
remained until 1919, becoming one of the best
hitters—and pitchers—of the time. In 1920, his
contract was sold to the New York Yankees for
$100,000. Thanks to his enormous appetite
and reckless lifestyle, Ruth became a legendary
figure during the Roaring Twenties, even
appearing in several films. He retired in June
1935 with 714 career home runs, a record that
wasn’t broken until 1974, by Hank Aaron.
Ruth died of throat cancer on August 16, 1948,
leaving much of his estate to the Babe Ruth
Foundation for underprivileged children.
Wally Schang
Catcher for the Red Sox
from 1918–1920. Schang
is generally considered
to be the greatest offensive catcher of the World
War I era.
Ed Barrow
Red Sox Manager Edward
Grant Barrow won the
1918 World Series in his
first year with the Red
Sox, but managed the
team for only two more
years. Upon leaving
Boston, Barrow was hired by the New York
Yankees as the business manager; he built
the Yankees into baseball’s premier franchise
and arguably greatest dynasty as their top
executive from 1921 to 1945.
Thomas Austin Yawkey
Lumber and iron magnate Tom Yawkey became
president of the Red Sox
in 1933. He was the sole
owner of the team for
forty-four seasons, longer
than anyone in baseball
history. The Red Sox had been at the bottom
of their league for more than a decade—ever
since Yawkey’s predecessor, Harry Frazee, had
sold Babe Ruth. Determined to turn the team
around, Yawkey bought as many talented
players as possible. He heavily renovated
Fenway Park, which had fallen into disrepair
over the years. He also served as American
League Vice President between 1956 and
1973. Jersey Street, the street that Fenway
Park is on, has been renamed Yawkey Way in
his honor.
Joe Cronin
Joe Cronin was a star
player from 1926 to
1945 and manager from
1933 to 1947. For a time,
Cronin played shortstop
for the Red Sox and
managed
the
team
simultaneously, retiring as a player in 1945,
but remaining manager until 1947. Cronin
passed on signing both Jackie Robinson and
a young Willie Mays, and never fielded an
African-American player during his tenure as
General Manager. In January 1959, Cronin
was elected president of the American
League, the first former player to be elected.

Willie Mays
1946 World Series
Willie “The Say Hey Kid”
Mays, Jr. is a retired
American baseball player
who played the majority
of his career with the
New York and San
Francisco Giants before
finishing with the New York Mets. He was
part of the first wave of African-American
baseball players to be fielded by major
league teams following Jackie Robinson’s
breaking of the color barrier. During the
twenty-one seasons in his major league
career (1951–1973), Willie Mays slammed
over 600 home runs and 3,000 base hits.
Mays was also one of the finest defensive
outfielders and best baserunners in baseball,
winning twelve consecutive Gold Glove
awards and appearing in twenty-four AllStar games. Mays was elected to the Baseball
Hall of Fame in 1979, his first year of eligibility. Many consider Willie Mays to be the
greatest all-around player of all time.
Enos Slaughter led the St.
Louis Cardinals to a
World Series win over
the Boston Red Sox
when, in the final game
of the series, he made a
famous “Mad Dash”
from first base to home plate, scoring the
winning run after a delayed relay throw by
Red Sox shortstop Johnny Pesky. Some historians say that Pesky assumed Slaughter
would not run all the way to home, and
checked first base before throwing to home
plate. Critics would vilify Pesky for “holding
the ball” for decades to come; however, he
has redeemed himself in the eyes of all Red
Sox fans by his unflagging loyalty to the
club. Pesky’s nickname today is “Mr. Red
Sox.”
THE RED SOX CURSE
Between their 1918 and 2004 World Series
victories, the Red Sox had a number of
extremely close—but disastrous—World
Series losses. Fans began to blame this perennial letdown on a “Curse,” possibly originating with the sale of Babe Ruth to the New
York Yankees in 1920. Harry Frazee, theatrical producer and owner of the Red Sox, was
said to have sold Ruth to finance his newest
Broadway play, Frank Mandel’s My Lady
Friends. This play would later be adapted
into the successful musical No, No, Nanette.
In addition, Frazee was reportedly unhappy
with Ruth’s widely reported boisterous
behavior and his unwillingness to continue
as a pitcher. The sale resulted in a string of
almost incomprehensible Red Sox failures,
and a bitter rivalry between the underdog
Sox and powerhouse Yankees.
14
1975 World Series
In one of the most iconic
moments in sports history, Carlton Fisk scored
the winning run in
Game 6 of the 1975
World Series against the
Cincinnati Reds; as the
ball flew close to foul territory, Fisk leapt
along the first base line, magically “waving”
the ball fair. The wave worked, the ball
landed fair and Fisk scored a home run.
However, the Sox could not follow through.
They lost the seventh and deciding game of
the Series to the Reds.
1978 Season
Early in the 1978 season,
the Sox seemed invincible, with a fourteengame lead over the
Yankees. This ended
abruptly during the
“Boston Massacre,” in
which the Yankees gained on the Boston
lead, then won four games at Fenway, tying
the two teams for the American League East
p r ogram notes
(continued)
title. In a tie-breaking playoff game, Yankee
Bucky Dent (a highly unlikely slugger) hit a
three-run homer to win it for the Yankees.
To this day, he’s known to Sox fans as
“Bucky ****ing Dent.”
1986 World Series
The Sox headed into
Game Six having won
three games to the New
York Mets’ two. The Red
Sox were one out away
from winning the World
Series, when the Mets
suddenly staged one of the most amazing
comebacks in history. “A little routine
grounder” hit by the Mets’ Mookie Wilson
in the tenth inning rolled under Red Sox
first baseman Bill Buckner’s glove. Then
through his legs. Then into right field,
allowing Ray Knight to score the winning
run. This forced a seventh game, which the
Mets won, along with the World Series title.
THE BIG GAME
The action of Johnny Baseball is framed by
the most important game in the historic 2004
Red Sox season:
2004 American League Championship
Series, Game 4
Every World Series is played between the top
American League team and the top National
League team. In 2004, the Red Sox and their
nemesis, the Yankees, played a best-of-seven
contest to decide who would move on to the
World Series. The first team to win four games
would be the American League champion.
The Red Sox had lost the first three games of
the American League Championship Series to
the Yankees. If the Yankees won Game Four,
the series was over. Boston fans were despondent. No team had ever come back from trailing three games to none.
This epic game became tied in the ninth
inning and lasted three extra innings, about
five hours total, until a home run from
David “Big Papi” Ortiz won the game for
Boston. Against all odds, the Red Sox won
the next three games in a row, defeating the
Yankees, then easily winning four more
games to sweep the 2004 World Series
against the St. Louis Cardinals. Game Four of
the American League Championship Series
was the turning point in the Red Sox’s path
to victory. When Johnny Baseball begins, it
is the fifth inning of Game Four and the
Yankees lead 2 to 1. Boston is at bat. Manny
Ramirez has just been walked, and the bases
are loaded. There is hope…but not much.

About the A.R.T.
A History of the American Repertory Theater
Diane Paulus Artistic Director/CEO
The American Repertory Theater (A.R.T.) is one of the country’s most celebrated resident theaters and the winner of numerous awards—including the Tony Award, the Pulitzer Prize, and
numerous local Elliot Norton and I.R.N.E. Awards. In 2002 the A.R.T. was the recipient of the
National Theatre Conference’s Outstanding Achievement Award, and in May of 2003 it was
named one of the top three theaters in the country by Time magazine.
Founded by Robert Brustein in 1980, during its 30-year history the A.R.T. has welcomed
major American and international theater artists, presenting a diverse repertoire that includes
new American plays, bold reinterpretations of classical texts, and provocative new music theater productions. The A.R.T. has performed throughout the U.S. and worldwide in 21 cities in
16 countries on four continents. It has presented over 200 productions, over half of which
were premieres of new plays, translations, and adaptations.
The A.R.T. is also a training ground for young artists. The theater’s artistic staff teaches undergraduate classes in acting, directing, dramatic literature, dramaturgy, design, and playwriting
at Harvard University, and in 1987 the A.R.T. founded the Institute for Advanced Theater
Training at Harvard University. In conjunction with the Moscow Art Theater School, the
Institute provides world-class graduate level training in acting, dramaturgy, and voice.
Last fall the A.R.T. welcomed its new Artistic Director, Diane Paulus. Under her leadership, the
Theater has developed a new initiative, EXPERIENCE THE A.R.T., that seeks to revolutionize
the theater experience through a sustained commitment to empowering the audience. This
initiative recognizes that theater is not just a play on the stage, but also a social occasion for
people to come together and experience community. This audience-driven vision speaks
directly to the A.R.T.’s core mission—“to expand the boundaries of theater.” By expanding its
focus to include the audience’s total theater experience, the A.R.T. seeks to give audiences a
voice, a sense of ownership, and a feeling of importance in the theatrical event.

The Institute for Advanced Theater Training at Harvard was established in 1987 by the
American Repertory Theater (A.R.T.) as a training ground for the American theater. Its programs are fully integrated with the activities of the A.R.T. In the summer of 1998 the
Institute commenced a historic joint program with the Moscow Art Theater (MXAT) School.
Students engage with two invaluable resources: the work of the A.R.T. and that of the MXAT,
as well as their affiliated schools. Together, this exclusive partnership offers students opportunities for training and growth unmatched by any program in the country.
The core program features a rigorous two-year, five-semester period of training in acting, dramaturgy, and special studies, during which students work closely with the professionals at the A.R.T.
and the MXAT as well as with the best master teachers from the United States and Russia. At the end
of the program, students receive a Certificate of Achievement from the faculty of the American
Repertory Theater and an M.F.A. Degree from the faculty of the Moscow Art Theater School.
Further information about this new program can be obtained by calling the Institute for a
free catalog at (617) 496-2000 or going to our web site at www.americanrepertorytheater.org.

GUIDE to
LOCAL
THEATER
June–July 2010
DOWNTOWN/THEATRE DISTRICT
BLUE MAN GROUP, Charles Playhouse, 74 Warrenton St.,
617-931-2787 or 617-426-6912. Ongoing. This giddily
subversive off-Broadway hit serves up outrageous and inventive theatre where three muted, blue-painted performers
spoof both contemporary art and modern technology. Wry
commentary and bemusing antics are matched only by the
ingenious ways in which music and sound are created. The
show has recently been updated with new performance
pieces and music.
CAPITOL STEPS, Wilbur Theatre, 246 Tremont St., 800-7453000. Jun 26. This political musical satire performed by an
ensemble of former Congressional staffers keeps you laughing about events and personalities on Capitol Hill, the Oval
Office and other centers of power.
OTHELLO, Commonwealth Shakespeare Company, Shakespeare
on the Common, 617-532-1252. Jul 22–Aug 15. Free and open
to the public. Shakespeare’s tragedy about distrust, jealousy and
rage takes center stage near the Parkman Bandstand on Boston
Common when CSC brings the Bard’s classic to the picturesque
environs of the country’s oldest public park.
SHEAR MADNESS, Charles Playhouse Stage II, 74 Warrenton
St., 617-426-5225. Ongoing. Boston’s hilarious whodunnit
where the audience takes a stab at catching the killer. Become
an armchair sleuth in the longest-running
play in U.S. history.
LOCAL/REGIONAL THEATRE
ALWAYS…PATSY CLINE, Stoneham Theatre, 395 Main St.,
Stoneham, 781-279-2200. Jul 8–25. Based on a true story
about the legendary country singer’s friendship with a fan from
Houston named Louise Seger, this rollicking musical tribute
includes many of Patsy’s unforgettable hits such as “Crazy,” “I
