A Note From The Executive & Artistic Director

Welcome to The Warehouse Theatre. It is because of you that we are able to enjoy a vibrant Warehouse Theatre dedicated to providing you with Intense, Intimate and Unexpected theatre. You make possible the type of theatre that you have come to expect from us; the kind of theatre you can only nd in an intimate space like The Jean Pelham Stage at The Warehouse Theatre. We think theatre is best experienced up close and personal. There really is no bad seat here at The Warehouse Theatre and you will be almost as much a part of the action as the characters themselves. Well, thats not quite true -- youre actually as much a part of the action as the characters. The immediacy and ephemerality of theatre and the magic of sharing a live, eeting experience with your friends and loved ones, actors and strangers, make YOU the most important part of the theatrical process. It all comes alive when you walk into the theatre. For the entire night, your presence changes the show. See the same show twice in the same run -- even the next night -and I guarantee you will see a show with dierent nuance and subtleties that happen because of you. Its one of those magical things that happens between an audience and those working on a performance. We all share in the event, and that event has real magic. I was, and think I still am, a student of theatre history. I studied under one of the greatest theatre historians this country has ever produced. Dr. Brockett passed away two years ago; he was one of the most important inuences on my career. Because of him, I developed an intellectual and visceral love of theatre history and, perhaps because of my Greek heritage, a fondness for the very beginnings of theatre, some 2500 years ago in ancient Greece. In just about every way, the ancients created modern theatre. In my eyes, every not-for-prot theatre is a community theatre, regardless of how many millions of dollars may or may not be in its budget. This didnt begin in the 1960s. It began in, more like, the 460s BC. The Greeks created an art form that had three purposes: honoring the gods, civic pride and edifying human beings. I take this seriously. Sometimes during a play we collectively experience a glimpse of the divine in the form of a sublime moment. We work to open the door for those sublime moments and our souls need that experience. We are dedicated members of our community and our city, and the ner our work, the ner our city and our regions quality of life. Our partnerships with like-minded individuals, businesses and not-for-prots happen because we are proud of our shared community and wish to make it an even better place to live, hoping to share it with everyone who will listen. Oh, by the way -- thats also one of the reasons big corporations move to the area. And, nally, what a piece of work is a man. Of course Shakespeare was speaking of mankind, and it is our hope that when you see a show at The Warehouse Theatre, you will not only enjoy yourself and lose yourself a little, but also nd yourself a little. We do intend, as it were, to hold 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. You are continuing a proud Western tradition that has continued proudly since its beginnings in the 5th century BC. (Well, there were a couple of dark years in there, but thats a dierent note.) Thank you for coming to the theatre, thank you for supporting the theatre and we hope you will take an opportunity to learn more about us and plan on joining us next season, for our 40th year of great theatre!

Playwright Biography
Stephen Joshua Sondheim was born March 22, 1930 in New York City to Etta Janet (nee Fox) and Herbert Sondheim. He grew up on the Upper West Side of Manhattan and later on a farm in Pennsylvania, after his parents divorced. While living in New York, Stephen Sondheim attended the Ethical Culture Fieldston School. Herbert, his father, was a dress manufacturer and Foxy, his mother, designed the dresses. An only child of well-to-do parents living in a high-rise apartment on Central Park West, Sondheims childhood has been portrayed as isolated and emotionally neglected in Meryle Secrests biography, Stephen Sondheim: A Life. At about the age of ten, around the time of his parents divorce, Sondheim became friends with Jimmy Hammerstein, son of the well-known lyricist and playwright Oscar Hammerstein II. The elder Hammerstein became a surrogate father to Sondheim, as the young Sondheim attempted to stay away from home as much as possible. He graduated New York Military Academy in 1946.He graduated from Williams College, winning the Hutchinson Prize for Music Composition, after which he studied theory and composition with Milton Babbitt. He is on the Council of the Dramatists Guild, the national association of playwrights, composers, and lyricists, having served as its president from 1973 to 1981, and in 1983 was elected to the American Academy of Arts and Letters. In 1990 he was appointed the rst Visiting Professor of Contemporary Theatre at Oxford University and in 1993 was a recipient of the Kennedy Center Honors. Sondheim wrote the music and lyrics for Bounce (2003), Passion (1994), Assassins (1991), Into the Woods (1987), Sunday in the Park with George (1984), Merrily We Roll Along (1981), Sweeney Todd (1979), Pacic Overtures (1976), The Frogs (1974), A Little Night Music (1973), Follies (1971, revised in London, 1987), Company (1970), Anyone Can Whistle (1964), and A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum (1962), as well as lyrics for West Side Story (1957), Gypsy (1959), Do I Hear A Waltz? (1965), and additional lyrics for Candide (1973). Side by Side by Sondheim (1976), Marry Me A Little (1981), Youre Gonna Love Tomorrow (1983), and Putting It Together (1992) are anthologies of this work as a composer and lyricist. For lms, he composed the scores of Stavisky (1974) and Reds (1981) and songs for Dick Tracy (1990), for which he won an Academy Award. He also wrote songs for the television production Evening Primrose (1966), coauthored the lm The Last of Sheila (1973) and the play Getting Away With Murder (1996), and provided incidental music for the plays The Girls of Summer (1956), Invitation to a March (1961), and Twigs (1971). He won Tony Awards for Best Score for a Musical for Passion, Into the Woods, Sweeney Todd, A Little Night Music, Follies, and Company. All of these shows won the New York Drama Critics Circle Award, as did Pacic Overtures and Sunday in the Park with George, the latter also receiving the Pulitzer Prize for Drama (1985). In addition, the Stephen Sondheim Theatre at 124 West 43rd Street in New York City was established in 2010 in honor of the legendary composer and lyricists 80th birthday.

What Fools These Mortals Be

While working on their hit musical, West Side Story, Stephen Sondheim and producer, Hal Prince, expressed a desire to write a chamber opera with a romantic farcical twist. They decided to base this new musical on the 1956 Ingmar Bergman lm, Smiles of a Summer Night. The collaborators--Sondheim, Prince, and Hugh Wheeler---agreed that theirs should be an original piece with touches of Strindberg, Chekhov and Shakespeare. From the beginning, Sondheims vision was dark; whereas, according to Craig Zadan, Prince wanted the darkness to peep through a whipped-cream surface. Wheeler, the book-writer, visualized a Shakespearean slant stemming from a line from A Midsummer Nights Dream in which the character Puck states, Lord, what fools these mortals be. In the end, the trio reached a collaborative harmony, and A Little Night Music was written with Ingmar Bergmans motion picture as its jumping-o point. Never losing sight of the complex game Bergman conceived of for his lm, Sondheim notes in a 1982 interview, It was to take place over a weekend during which, in almost game-like fashion, Desire would have been the prime mover and would work the characters into dierent situations. Bergman enjoyed orchestrating his comedic Sudoku of sorts telling an interviewer, I felt it would be a technical challenge to make a comedy with a mathematical pattern---man / woman, man / woman. Four couples. And then muddle them all up, and sort out the equations. As is the case in both Smiles of a Summer Night and A Little Night Music, the male characters appear to play the role of dreamers and buoons who try but fail to exceed their own limitations. The female characters, on the other hand, remain steadfast and a levelheaded despite the circus-like atmosphere surrounding them. Indeed, the summer night (incidentally, the summer solstice or white night) is the time in mid June of extended daylight that can lead to some sleep-deprived craziness, thus creating comic results that become the perfect setting for this librettos frivolity. Finally, the smiles noted in the lms title seem to take on new meaning in Sondheims Tony Award-winning opus. In the productions prologue, Madame Armfeldt explains to her granddaughter that the summer night smiles three times at the follies of human beings, of course. The rst smile smiles at the young, who know nothing. The second, at the fools who know too little . . . and the third at the old who know too much. Mirroring Pucks famous aforementioned line, Desire sings one of Sondheims inner monologue songs about the absurdity of human beings---But where are the clowns? / Quick, send in the clowns. / Dont bother, theyre here. As I think of it now, the song could have been called Send in the Fools, Sondheim says. I knew I was writing a song in which Desire is saying, Arent we foolish or Arent we fools? Well, a synonym for fools is clowns. Send in the fools didnt have the same ring to it. Elisa M. Golden Dramaturg

A signicant part of The Warehouse Theatres vision and mission is education in the schools and in the community. Our educational oerings are designed to encourage engagement, creativity and theatre that not only entertains, but elevates and celebrates the community it serves.

Applied Theatre: Healthy Living debuted in 2011-12. Our new applied theatre outreach programming gives youth a platform to explore not only choices and dilemmas aecting their physical health, but encompasses their social well-being and goal-setting as well. Emphasizing exploration and expression, we work in concert with organizations who serve youth to identify issues and help them envision positive possibilities. In inaugural year, we worked with over 175 youths, from organizations such as Bridges to a Brighter Future, Sterling Teen Center, Big Brothers Big Sisters, Greenville Hospital Systems and Communities in Schools, empowering youth through theatre.
