Doubt, a parable

By John Patrick Shanley

Directed by Amy Almquist

 

Set in a Bronx Catholic school in 1964, DOUBT traces the bitter confrontation between Father Flynn, a charismatic young priest, and Sister Aloysius, the tradition-minded principal of the school. Suspicions arise over the relationship between Flynn and a student.  Armed with nothing more than a resolute belief in her suspicions and a few circumstantial details, Sister Aloysius instigates a campaign to remove the priest.  But this is only the beginning, for around every corner of this complex play, playwright Shanley is waiting to spring a surprise. Some of Tucson's best-known stage actors carry this modern masterpiece about faith and uncertainty to a new level by performing it in the sanctuary of a church. DOUBT, alternately absorbing, humorous and troubling, will stay with you long after the final curtain.

“Blunt yet subtle, manipulative but full of empathy for all sides, the play is set in 1964 but could not be more timely. In just ninety fast-moving minutes, Shanley creates four blazingly individual people. DOUBT is a lean, potent drama…passionate, exquisite, important, and engrossing.” - New York Newsday.

Tucson: Arizona Theatre Company presents DR. JEKYLL AND MR. HYDE



From: Arizona Theatre Company [mailto:aztheatreco@aztheatreco.pmailus.com]
Sent: Friday, December 28, 2007 5:02 PM
Subject: Indulge your dark side with DR. JEKYLL AND MR. HYDE



For Immediate Release
December 28, 2007

Bevan Brunelle Bluemer, Public Relations Manager: 520.884.8210 Ext. 8205

INDULGE YOUR DARK SIDE WITH DR. JEKYLL AND MR. HYDE

World premiere of Jeffrey Hatcher’s fiercely theatrical adaptation of the classic tale.


What happened the night that Henry Jekyll died? The respected Dr. Jekyll has begun to display alarmingly erratic behavior toward his friends. At the same time, a brutal figure has begun to haunt the city’s streets. In Jeffrey Hatcher’s intense new version of Robert Louis Stevenson’s DR. JEKYLL AND MR. HYDE, Dr. Jekyll confronts the monstrous Mr. Hyde in a maze of interlocking scenes that attempt to answer the puzzles at the heart of a tortured soul. Commissioned by ATC for this world premiere, DR. JEKYLL AND MR. HYDE plays in Tucson at the Temple of Music and Art from January 12 through February 2. It continues its run in Phoenix at the Herberger Theater Center from February 7 through February 24. The Tucson production underwriter for DR. JEKYLL AND MR. HYDE is APS, with additional support from Tucson Pima Arts Council, and the Phoenix production underwriter is APS. Arizona Theatre Company’s season underwriters are I. Michael and Beth Kasser. 

In Robert Louis Stevenson’s classic 1886 novella, a respected doctor explores the inner workings of the mind and the many sides of the personality.  In Jeffrey Hatcher’s taut re-telling of this classic horror story, one actor plays Dr. Jekyll and five other actors portray all of the rest of the characters who bring the gripping tale to life.  The evil Mr. Hyde has many faces – brutality, sexuality, heartlessness.  Hatcher’s adaptation questions the lines between good and evil as the mystery of the connection between the virtuous doctor and the vicious stranger unravels. The final struggle for control of one man’s soul brings Jekyll face-to-face with his deepest nature.

“Everyone knows the basic story of DR. JEKYLL AND MR. HYDE”, commented director David Ira Goldstein, “The story has permeated popular culture for 120 years. Whether through the versions featuring Frederic March, John Barrymore, David Hasselhoff or, heaven help us,  even Abbott and Costello, we all know the story of the man who separated his good and his bad selves. What intrigued Jeffrey Hatcher about this story and what infuses his new version with such power is the idea that no one is truly just one thing or another. Although we live in a culture that wants to polarize and categorize us into good or bad, left or right, moral or immoral, every person remains stubbornly more complicated than that. All of us are a mixture of many elements, many motivations, many streams of exposed and hidden parts. People in 1886 were infinite in their variety and complexity, and they remain so today.”  

Playwright Jeffrey Hatcher adds, “In my version the roles are somewhat reversed, as are some aspects of Jekyll and Hyde themselves. One of the arguments I've never quite believed -- and I suspect Stevenson didn't believe it either -- is that Henry Jekyll is wholly good while Edward Hyde is wholly evil. I'm trying to have some fun with the notion that Jekyll and Hyde play a cat-and-mouse game with each other, and with the question of just who we should be rooting for.”

JEFFREY HATCHER (Playwright) is one of America’s most produced playwrights. He is the author of Ella and co-author of Work Song: Three Views of Frank Lloyd Wright and Tuesdays with Morrie – all of which have been seen on Arizona Theatre Company’s stages. Mr. Hatcher authored the book for the Broadway musical, Never Gonna Dance. Off-Broadway productions include Three Viewings and A Picasso at Manhattan Theatre Club, Scotland Road and The Turn of the Screw at Primary Stages, Tuesdays with Morrie (with Mitch Albom) at Minetta Lane Theatre, Murder by Poe and The Turn of the Screw with The Acting Company, Neddy at The American Place Theatre and Fellow Travelers at Manhattan Punchline. His plays – among them, Compleat Female Stage Beauty, Murderers, Mercy of a Storm, Smash, and To Fool the Eye– have been seen in hundreds of productions at regional theatres across the U.S. and abroad. Mr. Hatcher wrote the screenplays for Stage Beauty and Casanova as well as the currently-in-production The Duchess starring Keira Knightly and Ralph Fiennes, as well as authoring episodes of the Peter Falk series Columbo.

DAVID IRA GOLDSTEIN (Director) this year celebrates his sixteenth season as Artistic Director of Arizona Theatre Company. He has directed over 30 mainstage productions for ATC ranging from classics to new plays to musicals including the current production of the enormously popular The Pajama Game, as well as the world premieres of Sherlock Holmes: The Final Adventure, Inventing van Gogh, Rocket Man, Private Eyes, Over The Moon and Dracula by Steven Dietz and For Better or Worse by Geoff Hoyle.  He has been a guest director at theatres from coast to coast including Seattle Rep, Berkeley Rep, The Pasadena Playhouse, Kansas City Rep, Florida Stage, Children’s Theatre Company of Minneapolis, Northlight Theatre, Geva Theatre, Mixed Blood and many others. Last year he won both the Jeff Award in Chicago and the LA Drama Critics Award for A Marvelous Party: The Noël Coward Celebration which he also co-authored. He received the 2003 Governor’s Arts Award as Individual Artist for his contributions to the arts in Arizona. 

The cast of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde features a mix of returning and new faces to ATC. R. Hamilton Wright (Dr. Henry Jekyll) last appeared with Arizona Theatre Company as George Finch in Over the Moon.  His other ATC credits include The Mystery of Irma Vep, Scapin, Dreams from a Summer House as well as the world premiere of Steven Dietz’s Private Eyes. Recent credits include George W. Bush in David Hare's Stuff Happens at Seattle's ACT Theatre, where he also directed Stephen Temperly's Souvenir. In thirty years as an actor he has appeared in over 120 professional productions at Seattle Repertory, ACT Theatre, Intiman Theatre, Milwaukee Repertory Theater, South Coast Repertory, The Empty Space and The Public Theatre in New York, among others.  Ken Ruta (Gabriel Utterson, Edward Hyde) began his association with Arizona Theatre Company as an actor and director 25 years ago as Astrov in Uncle Vanya. More recently, he appeared in Over the Moon and Copenhagen. Other ATC productions include Galileo, Our Town, The Illusion, Shadowlands and The Heiress, as well as directing Billy Bishop Goes to War; ‘night, Mother; The Learned Ladies; The Real Thing; Goodbye Freddie and The Last Night of Ballyhoo. He appeared in the Broadway productions of The Elephant Man, Three Sisters, Duel of Angels, Ross, Separate Tables and Inherit the Wind, as well as touring nationally in Oscar Wilde: Diversion and Delights. Stephen D’Ambrose (Sir Danvers Carew, Edward Hyde) appeared last season in ATC’s production of Molly’s Delicious. Other recent appearances include Our Town with Two River Theatre Company, Cardinal Antonelli in Edgardo Mine at Guthrie Theater and Democracy at Park Square Theatre. Nationally, he has toured with Guthrie Theater’s Great Expectations, The Tavern and A Midsummer Night’s Dream, as well as with Jungle Theater Company’s The Pavilion.

Other regional credits include Blackbird at American Conservatory Theater, Ambition Facing West at TheatreWorks, Killer Joe at Marin Theatre and The Mousetrap and Nunsense for Dorset Theatre Festival.

HYDE includes Kent Dorsey (Scenic Designer), who returns to ATC where he designed scenery for For Better or Worse, A Streetcar Named Desire, A Moon for the Misbegotten, Work Song: Three Views of Frank Lloyd Wright (ariZoni Award), and many others.

Tucson: Red Barn Theatre presents Lilies of the Field - Special Reception for Fran Jarvis

Subject: Lilies of the Field - Special Reception for Fran Jarvis

 

Theater lovers - if you are familiar with the movie, “Lilies of the Field” which was filmed right here in Tucson and the movie that won an Academy Award for Sidney Poitier, you won’t want to miss the upcoming stage production - - - well, maybe you will, but hopefully you won’t.

 

The show is being put on by the Red Barn Theatre Company and will run January 11 – 27.  Shows are 8:00 on Fri/Sat and 2:00 on Sundays.  The theater is located at 948 N. Main and regular show tickets are $12.00 and $10.00 for seniors and students.  This is a very family-friendly play and one you will want to bring the whole family to.

 

On Saturday, January 12 we are having a special reception and show.  We are recognizing Francesca Jarvis, a local actor who played Sister Albertine in the movie with Sidney Poitier.  For anyone that knows Fran, you know what an absolutely wonderful lady she is and this is an opportunity to recognize her for her contributions to the theater and to Tucson. The tickets for this event are $35 and will include heavy hors de’oeuvers, catered by Vel’s Catering Service.  This event will be held at the Dunbar Auditorium, 300 W. 2nd Street. Reception 6:30 and show at 8:00.  If you haven’t seen The Dunbar, you owe it to yourself to check it out.  The once segregated school for African American students is being renovated into a cultural museum.  It will be a Tucson showcase.

 

If you can’t make the reception, try to get to one of the shows.  Call for reservations (622-6973); the Red Barn is a pretty small “intimate” theater (about 70 seats).
