ENTICING STARWOOD JOSHUA SASLOVE 970.948.3876 [email protected] Luxury Real Estate ~ Rentals ~ Management ~ Ranches ~ Commercial 970.925.8810 www.joshuaco.com ABOUT TH E SH OWS L L U F E TH Y T N O M A new comedy inspired by the works of Noel Coward, THE COTTAGE is set in the idyllic English countryside in 1923. A tale of sex, betrayal and, oh yes, love, unfolds when Sylvia Van Kipness decides to expose her love affair to her husband and her lover’s wife. The true meanings of fate, identity and marriage are called into question as a surprising, hilarious web of secrets unravels in this ridiculous—and potentially murderous—romantic comedy. Rated: Naughty! (Ages 12+) A group of unemployed steelworkers in Buffalo, New York come together to raise money by taking off their clothes in a one-night performance, emulating the touring Chippendalesstyle companies that have bewitched the town’s working women. Down on their luck and emasculated by the women in their lives, the men overcome body issues, sexist views, bigotry, and plain old fear to find strength and confidence in each other, ultimately taking it all off with pride. Based on Louisa May Alcott’s own family experiences (and novel), LITTLE WOMEN follows the adventures of Jo, Meg, Beth and Amy March as they grow up facing the absence of their father as he serves in the Civil War. Even though the musical’s score is contemporary, the beloved story of the March sisters is timeless and explores the ongoing issues the girls face, like young love, hope, ambition and longing. There is great heart to THE FULL MONTY, and the themes expressed in the show, about taking charge of one’s life and following one’s dreams are great lessons for all of us. The pop/rock score featuring fantastic lyrics is funny and tuneful. Now, this wonderful narrative has been brought to life as an exhilarating new musical filled with glorious music, dancing and heart. This powerful score soars with the sounds of personal discovery, heartache and hope — the sounds of a young America finding its voice. COTTAGE Rated: Naughty! Adult themes and language, not recommended for children. THEATRE ASPEN APPRENTICE SHOWCASE Rated: Nice! For all ages. Better than The Voice! Theatre Aspen’s new apprentice program features ten aspiring professionals. During the week they are on stage or backstage; now, you’ll see them produce and perform their own collection of musical favorites. Don’t miss this destined-to-be-packed show, brimming with the most exciting young talent you’ll see this summer. August 10th, showtime 7 pm, at the Hurst Theatre. Duration 70 minutes. 2 THEATRE ASPEN FROM OUR ARTISTIC DIRECTOR Paige Price L E TTE R S For those theatre fans among you, the words “Defying Gravity” represent the soaring climax in the mega-hit musical Wicked. At this point in the play, our heroine proclaims, “It’s time to trust my instincts, close my eyes and leap.” This season, Theatre Aspen is making the same kind of proclamation, albeit with a call to action borrowed from the Aspen Chamber of Commerce: Defy Ordinary. The muscular directive in that phrase is thrilling to embrace, so this year we are excited to co-opt ACRA’s slogan as we set out on a new course for Theatre Aspen. Built upon a new foundation (quite literally), Theatre Aspen leaves its 30th Anniversary season behind, and looks ahead toward our next 30 years. Our vision for the future is to become a top destination for theatre artists and patrons, with a continued commitment to excellence. The three pillars of our work will include our summer season, our education program (which includes our wildly successful new Apprentice Program) and a New Play Series, that is so new it’s not even branded yet, wherein we will invite incredible artists to come and work in Aspen, to develop new projects for the theatre. As soon as we unveiled our plans for the initiative, an opportunity arose to launch the series with Duncan Sheik and Steven Sater’s new musical Alice By Heart. The duo is known for their groundbreaking and multiple Tony-winning Spring Awakening and they, along with a stellar creative team and twelve young professionals, enthralled an audience at the Wheeler Opera House in May when they presented a sneak peek of their workshop. Aspen is the perfect place to bring something to life: its remote beauty, elevated appreciation for culture and our community’s thirst for knowledge and experience are unsurpassed. It really does Defy Ordinary. We are grateful to our board, to the artists and to this community, which embraces new things and takes chances. We’re excited to see what happens with “Alice,” and proud to have been part of her development. And to quote another lyric from Wicked, “Everyone deserves the chance to fly!” We hope to provide that opportunity for apprentices, for artists and for audiences. We intend to Defy Ordinary with unabashed, ambitious style. FROM OUR PRESIDENT Lisa Baker WELCOME TO THEATRE ASPEN’S 2014 SUMMER SEASON IN THE HURST THEATRE! This summer, our advertising campaign is asking you to “Come Closer.” And while you might not want to get too close to the actors in The Full Monty (at least during the most revealing scenes), we know you’ll be delighted with your choice to come closer and enjoy superb theatre in one of the country’s most unique and intimate theatre environments. With our productions of The Full Monty, Little Women and The Cottage, Theatre Aspen has something for any audience this summer! Our ambitious season comes on the heels of one of the most impactful summers in Theatre Aspen’s 31-year history. To say that our 2013 season was a success would be an understatement; Les Misérables was the talk of Aspen (and beyond) with patrons coming back time and time again to see remarkable talent take the stage. Fully Committed had its run extended as performance after performance sold out. And, You’re a Good Man, Charlie Brown engaged and delighted scores of children and adults alike. Our productions weren’t the only shining stars of last summer. Theatre Aspen launched our apprentice program, thanks to the generosity of John and Jessica Fullerton. The program, which drew hundreds of applications from college and graduate students around the country, brought 10 aspiring theatre professionals to TA for the summer to learn their trades from skilled professionals. The success of the season and our ambitious goal to become a destination for top theatre talent led us to a bit of “soul searching” over the last nine months. The ever-committed TA Board “retreated” to Basalt for a two-day strategy session. Led by board member Don Short, expert strategist and former CEO, we got down to creating TA’s 2020 plan. Of course, our primary focus will be to maintain high quality productions. Our apprentice program will continue to foster the talents of those aiming to build a career in theatre. And, our Theatre Aspen School (TAS) after-school programs and summer camps will offer a creative home for even the youngest of performers. However, we also decided that there was more that Theatre Aspen could do to cultivate the creative process. Theatre Aspen should be known not only for staging excellent productions but also as a home for creative development at all levels. To that end, the first new initiative is our “New Works Series.” Generously underwritten by Barbara and Franklin Carson, this series is committed to bringing playwrights, directors, composers, lyricists and actors to Aspen. In the inspirational environs of our little town, theatre will be created. And we know that Aspen’s audiences will offer a discerning but supportive environment for new works to be developed. Our inaugural event brought Duncan Sheik, the composer of the Tony Award-winning musical Spring Awakening, and his team to Aspen in late May to workshop his latest musical Alice By Heart. Changes keep coming at TA, thanks to our dedicated board and generous community. If you enjoy what you see, and I know you will, I encourage you to come back for another of our stunning productions, tell your friends about us, join our National Council, or donate! We invite you to Come Closer to Theatre Aspen. Enjoy the show! 2014 SUMMER SEASON 3 THE FULL AGENCY INDEPENDENT. INNOVATIVE. INVOLVED.

Does business the exact same way. I’ve raced the Iditarod, piloted a commercial fishing boat, and performed on stage with Theatre Aspen. It’s not a typical real estate resume, but it’s a unique one in this proudly atypical town. Ed Foran 970.948.5704 Ed.Foran @ SothebysRealty.com Friends and clients have likened my biography to an adventure novel, but I’ve built my real estate career by predicting and preventing drama, not courting it. In two decades of business, I’ve learned that preparation and persistence are paramount, and I approach every transaction and every decision with ample quantities of both. Ultimately, the best decision I ever made was to raise my family in Aspen: no town comes close to its extraordinary mix of community and culture. As an audience member, performer, and stage-dad, I appreciate the special role that Theatre Aspen has played in creating a unique home – and a unique life – for my family, my friends, and so many of my clients.
