SOS Playbill - Shakespeare on the Sound
ROMEO + JULIET DIRECTED BY JOANNA SETTLE SONGS BY STEW AND HEIDI RODEWALD FREE GREENWICH, CT JUNE 26 - JULY 8 7:30PM, BALDWIN PARK, 100 ARCH STREET ROWAYTON, CT JULY 18 - JULY 29 7:30PM, PINKNEY PARK, 177 ROWAYTON AVE. 2012 GE Capital proudly supports Shakespeare on the Sound GE Capital provides financial support, volunteer manpower, and intellectual capital to support the communities in which we live and work. We are a proud sponsor of Shakespeare on the Sound, helping to create a forum for learning, appreciation, and celebration of the arts for our community’s children. 2 3 PHOTO BY JEFF FASANO from our Artistic Director from our Executive Director Welcome to Shakespeare on the Sound's 17th Season! This season's production of Romeo and Juliet is conceived to emerge out of a gathering much like our own – an annual summer tradition among friends of reading a play together after dinner. We open our evening of Shakespeare with a scene from one of my favorite contemporary writers, Stew, whose words are as striking and surprising as the score he and Heidi have composed. It's a thrill to invite you to enjoy a first in our history - two authors 400 years apart in direct conversation. Welcome to Shakespeare on the Sound's 17th season of free Shakespeare! Since I've come onboard as the Executive Director, I've heard so many extraordinary stories about Shakespeare on the Sound and its legacy of almost two decades. This tradition and legacy relies on the commitment and support of generous donors, corporations, foundations and individuals like you. Each dollar you give counts, makes a difference, or goes to some component of the cost of presenting year-round programming that is a part of our mission as a non-profit organizaton. This frame is directly inspired by all of you and by my own experiences with the plays. I find that the deeper I go into Shakespeare, the more my view of the world and of myself is changed: I am overtaken and transformed. With this idea in mind and with a love for the way Stew and Heidi's music haunts us after these productions, I sought to capture the way we fall into our night at Shakespeare on the Sound. As the sun sets and the dinner guests on stage go deeper into the story, so do we all. William Shakespeare wrote both Romeo and Juliet and Richard ll at age 31, in an early phase of his career driven by experiments in form. These plays were revolutionary in bringing poetic writing constructs to the stage for the first time. Richard ll is Shakespeare’s only dramatic work written almost entirely in verse. Romeo and Juliet share their love upon meeting by spontaneously creating a sonnet together – the first sonnet ever to leap off the page and onto a stage so stunningly. This would have thrilled Shakespeare's audience as much as a poetry slam or a successful turn of lyric in a song thrills us today. Contained in Shakespeare’s stories is the very stuff we are made of: our laughter, our joy, our grief, our wonder and our moral sense. Together we will conjure one of our culture’s foundational myths, with joy, exuberance, and the bold sense of adventure that has come to mean summer with Shakespeare on the Sound. Your donations in the parks contribute not only to our productions, but our programs in schools, libraries, lectures, our anti-bullying program launched this past spring, "Speaking Daggers," and the many other programs that we provide throughout the year in Fairfield County. We are grateful and pleased you have chosen to be with us here tonight. Help keep us coming back for years to come as we reach the next generation and leave them the legacy of a great summer night in our hometown. Also, I cannot thank enough the many volunteers that give freely and generously of their time creating one of the finest professional theatre companies in the country. My very best wishes to you and your families! Steven Yuhasz Executive Director Have fun tonight! As always I welcome your thoughts at my email address below.

We hold 27 properties throughout the city of Norwalk including the 16-acre Farm Creek Preserve at 34 Sammis Street in Rowayton. Thanks to many of the same patrons as are enjoying tonight’s performance, we were able to preserve this important marine estuary property. Today it is a wonderful place to walk quietly and enjoy. Norwalk Elementary School’s 4th graders have been using the Farm Creek Preserve for field trips for three years. They are able to reinforce the concepts learned in the classroom about tidal estuary ecosystems. Volunteer field guides lead small groups all over the Preserve. Everyone experiences discovery and wonder firsthand. *Member of Actors’ Equity Association, the Union of Professional Actors and Stage Managers in the United States.

Tony, an architect, and Ali, the hostess, have invited a group of friends to read a play after dinner. Ali assigns the parts, casting herself as Juliet and her ex-boyfriend, Will, as Romeo. Much to his dismay, Tony will play Lord Capulet, Juliet’s father. One by one the party guests find themselves falling entirely into the story and becoming the characters. As they begin reading . . . Romeo and Juliet live in Verona, where their families, the Montagues and the Capulets, are rivals and create community discord. Romeo, a Montague, pines over an unrequited love, Rosaline. Romeo and his friends, Benvolio and Mercutio, decide to go to Capulet’s ball in disguise when he learns that Rosaline is a guest. At Capulet’s party, Romeo meets Juliet, Capulet’s daughter and they fall in love at first sight. Tybalt, Juliet’s fiery cousin, wants to throw Romeo out of the party, but Capulet stops him. Romeo and Juliet Romeo learns of Juliet’s “death” before Friar Lawrence can get word to him. Romeo buys a poison and goes directly to Juliet. He takes the poison and dies, just as Juliet wakes. The Friar tries to take her out of the tomb, but she refuses to go and stabs herself. Upon learning of their deaths, the families agree to get over their grudge and build golden statues to the young lovers. In collaboration with Director Joanna Settle, Stew wrote a scene to introduce the “frame” of our production. Shakespeare would have called this frame a “device” to enter into the world of the play and this kind of device is something Shakespeare frequently used in his own texts to remind the audience that they were watching a play. The play-within-a play is a common Shakespearean structure used in Taming of the Shrew, A Midsummer Night’s Dream, Love’s Labors Lost, Hamlet and Timon of Athens to name a few. Shakespeare always called attention to the fact that these are actors and the stage is just a stage because he wanted and needed his audience to use their imaginations – to imagine the “vasty fields of France,” to accept that even in death a person’s spirit can demand revenge, to believe that the boy who played Juliet in 1600 was a beautiful young girl and so on. Though they have learned that they are the only children of two rival families, Romeo and Juliet exchange vows of love and plan to marry. Friar Lawrence, Romeo’s confidant, agrees to help them because he thinks it will help resolve the long-standing enmity. Unfortunately, after the clandestine marriage Romeo encounters Tybalt who wants to fight with Romeo because he crashed Capulet’s party. Romeo’s friend Mercutio cannot stand to watch Romeo duck out of a fight and takes on Tybalt himself. When Romeo tries to separate them,Tybalt stabs Mercutio under Romeo’s arm and Mercutio dies. Romeo kills Tybalt to revenge Mercutio’s death. The Prince of Verona decrees that Romeo is banished. Friar Lawrence advises Romeo and Juliet’s nurse that Romeo should see his new bride, then go to Mantua and wait for a plan to bring them together. After parting from Romeo, Juliet learns that her father is planning to have her marry County Paris in two days, which she refuses to do. The Friar quickly plots that Juliet should agree to the marriage and take a cordial that will put her into a sleep that seems like death. Her family will weep for her, put her in the family tomb and the Friar will send word to Romeo to come to Juliet at the tomb as she wakes from the slumber and take her away. 28 29 About the Text about the text “the purpose of playing… was and is, to hold, as 'twere, the mirror up to nature; to show virtue her own feature, scorn her own image, and the very age and body of the time his form and pressure.” – Hamlet, Act 3, Scene ii Shakespeare rose to prominence quickly in a small circle of playwrights in the innovative London theater scene of the late 1500’s. A bit of an upstart in this scene, Shakespeare’s rapidly rising star was to the admiration of some in that circle, to the chagrin of others. Shakespeare even in his own time was an iconoclast. The coterie of London playwrights were mostly Oxonians. Shakespeare was not. Where Marlowe rarely wavered from the dictates of iambic pentameter, Shakespeare pushed its limits and varied his style within the form. Most of us who love Shakespeare are familiar with the magnificent literary elements that have kept his work alive for 400 years. However, Shakespeare was also a groundbreaking contemporary playwright, writing new work in the context of the London in which he lived. Shakespeare was also a business man. As a shareholder in The Globe, he had an investment in his own popularity. His competition wasn’t just other theater companies but bear baiting, animal fights, executions, and the local brothels and bars. On top of his innovative style, he appealed to popular culture. He referenced contemporary people and events, incorporated popular music, often used contemporary Elizabethan costumes, as well as raised the art of playwriting to new heights. This year’s Romeo and Juliet evokes the spirit of this Shakespeare; Shakespeare the popular, contemporary playwright. Shakespeare and his theater company produced for the modern audience of England’s largest metropolis. He indeed held a “mirror up to [the] nature” of that time and place, he showed the “body of the time his form and pressure.” In this Romeo and Juliet, we find another such mirror. This is a 21st century cast. A cast of recognizable characters we could easily run into at a cocktail party or perhaps Dean and DeLuca. Eschewing pumpkin pants and ruff collars, we see clothing that we recognize from our own wardrobes. The music is modern, catchy and delivered in contemporary voices like those from our iTunes play lists. The set could easily be lifted from a Connecticut neighbor’s backyard. The framing device that eases us into the world of Romeo and Juliet is reminiscent of the framing device that Shakespeare provides to ease us into The Taming of the Shrew. This production follows Shakespeare’s lead and pushes beyond the dictates of the traditional form. Joanna Settle mines Shakespeare’s contemporary popularity of his day here in Connecticut 400+ years later. Her vision draws on the context of Shakespeare popularity, to show us a mirror of our own society, in words, music, set and costume.

This program piloted in Spring 2012 at the Carver Center, Norwalk with the support of GE Capital. Parents and Educators, call 203-299-1300 or email our Director of Education, Emily Bryan ([email protected]) if you think your school, community center or library would be interested in “Speaking Daggers.” Below, actors perform a scene from A Midsummer Night’s Dream with a modern cyber-bullying twist to show that humiliation is worsened with addition of technology. Using a cell phone to record and upload a fight or embarrassing moment to the internet is particularly hurtful.
