The 5th Avenue Theatre
Tickets and Information
April 25th - May 13, 2007


Matthew Bourne's breathtaking adaptation of Tim Burton's Edward Scissorhands brings forth the emotional splendor of the beloved film while maintaining a glory all its own. After a long-standing relationship with Tim Burton, Bourne was inspired to see Burton's Frankenstein love story appear on the stage, premiering in London in 2005. Collaboration between Bourne and his company created a performance that not only holds true thematically and musically to Burton's film, but reaches new heights in ways that only dance can.

Bourne's collaborative choreography is incredible to say the least. Combining classical ballet with more modern styles, the dance is original and yet familiar. From the audience, the steps will fall into place as if choreographed in the mind of each audience member yet will take everyone by surprise with their majestic beauty and precision. Emotions come across clearer in this dancing than words could express, as the audience is captivated by the life of Edward and the town members. Including the simplicity of chaos juxtaposed with the complexity of a pas de deux, the company's choreography is spellbinding.

Borrowing mostly from Danny Elfman's original score, Terry Davies develops a hybrid of his own style combined with Elfman's ever-recognizable flair. For those in the audience who are familiar with the film, the score will be one quickly remembered. For those who are new to the story, the flawless transitions from Elfman's to Davies' pieces will feel as though it is one continuous score.

As powerful as dance is, the environment in which it takes place holds as much import as the movements themselves. Meaningful and attention-grabbing costumes are necessary as well as practical and beautiful sets. Lez Brotherston's costume and set designs epitomize the art. Never remaining trapped in the middle of the road, Brotherston ventures to extremes from the historically accurate to the completely surreal. While most of the characters fit the mold of a typical suburban American family of the 1960s, the creations of their imaginations have no boundaries and explore the farthest reaches of fantasy.

The dancing is supported by a subtle and fitting sound design by Paul Groothuis and utterly magical lighting design by Howard Harrison, which utilizes every resource available to create the world in which this spectacular show takes place. The production delves deep into the world of imagination without breaking the wall of the farfetched.

While staying true to the film and yet becoming completely original, Matthew Bourne and Company's Edward Scissorhands is an enchanting show that must be seen. After two years in Europe, Seattle is one of the immediately fortunate cities to receive the gift of Edward Scissorhands.

Master Harold... and the Boys at SPT

Seattle Public Theater brings influential Master Harold…and the boys to Green Lake

Athol Fugard’s powerful production focuses on hope, humor, and dancing

in time of South African apartheid

SEATTLE, Wash. – In a unique opportunity for theatergoers, Seattle Public Theater at the Bathhouse will be concluding its 2006-2007 season with legendary playwright Athol Fugard’s Master Harold...and the boys, beginning May 17- June 10, 2007 . A definitive statement on the influences of South African apartheid in the mid- to late-twentieth century, this production delves even deeper into the complex and often humorous cross-racial relationships formed in South African day-to-day life.

Frequently noted as commentary on how institutionalized racism and hatred can become absorbed by those under its control, Artistic Director Shana Bestock sees the play as a message of our common humanity and as appeal for compassion. “I chose the play because Fugard's craft of writing a play is masterful, and ties together the personal and political so seamlessly that the craft of the play itself sends a powerful message about what it is to be human and to live in the world. The structure of the play also resonates with my own search for how I create and inform the community I live in, and how my actions and beliefs are shaped by the lessons I've learned from my parents and teachers.”

Although the play speaks to heavy topics with serious social overtones, Bestock makes sure the audience enjoys the comedy within the play as well. “I would hate to see theatergoers put off by the idea that this is “heavy drama.” There are a lot of laughs in Fugard despite the oppressive situation the country was dealing with. The play comes alive through the specific relationships of these three men who are full of energy, humor, and intelligence."

Showtimes for Master Harold…and the boys is May 17-June 10, 2007, Thursday-Saturday 7:30pm, with Sunday matinee 2pm. Tickets are $24-$14. For more information, contact the Seattle Public Theater box office at (206) 524-1300, or order online at www.seattlepublictheater.org. KUOW is the official Media Sponsor for Seattle Public Theater.

Seattle Rep with Students

SEATTLE REP AND THE CENTER SCHOOL BREW SCANDAL WITH

The School for Scandal

an Adaptation

by Richard Brinsley Sheridan

Adapted by Andrea Allen

Directed by Scott Koh

Unique collaboration allows students to produce new play at Seattle Repertory Theatre through its Annual Drama Intensive Program

May 23 and 24, 2007 7:30 p.m.

Seattle, WA - Under the guidance and direction of Seattle Repertory Theatre teaching artists, over 50 high school students from The Center School will present a new adaptation of the Restoration comedy classic The School for Scandal by Richard Brinsley Sheridan May 23 and 24 in Seattle Rep's Leo K. Theatre. Over the last four months, the students have learned about costume and set design, set construction, playwriting, and acting in two different TCS classes, and then applied those skills to bring the script by Seattle Rep Education Director Andrea Allen to life. Tickets are $5.00 general admission or free with student ID and are on sale now at 206-443-2222.

This is the sixth year Seattle Rep has partnered with The Center School for the semester-long Drama Intensive program. Last year's Drama Intensive, Pants on Fire, was an exploration of the current teenage obsession with online identity portals like "MySpace" mashed up with a history of P.T. Barnum's legendary showmanship and circus tomfoolery.

Students enrolled in the Rehearsal and Performance class build their acting techniques and offer personal responses to Allen that may be incorporated into the script. Once the script is finished, the acting students audition for roles and begin an intensive rehearsal process, under the direction of Scott Koh and Assistant Director, Emily Henderson. At the same time, students in the Design and Production class learn from professionals about designing sets and costumes for theatre while also getting the chance to see and respond to local theatre productions. Under the leadership of Design and Production lead Teaching Artist Jess Smith, Dana Perreault (sets), and Emily Carlson (costumes), the Design and Production students help design and build the technical elements of the show.

The Play: This year's Drama Intensive will be an adaptation of Sheridan's The School for Scandal a play about pretending to be nicer than you are (or in some cases meaner than you are) and trying to fit into society-no matter what the cost. Lady Sneerwell has her sights set on the eligible young bachelor Charles. Through a series of lies, scandalous plots, and devious schemes she vows to make him fall for her. "I decided to explore gossip and our country's increasing fascination with celebrity culture," said Allen. "As scandal becomes the norm, and the desire to break taboos-always a staple of adolescence-becomes more difficult because of a lack of boundaries, it seemed only appropriate to return to the 18th-century. A time when the rules and taboos may have been more explicit, especially around class and gender, but the desire to undermine said rules and taboos was just as rampant as today."

The Playwright: Andrea Allen is the Director of Education at Seattle Rep and has created numerous programs for the theatre. From its inception six years ago, Ms. Allen has been actively involved in the creation and development of The Center School, a public high school on the Seattle Center campus. She teaches playwriting and directing at the school, as well as writing an adaptation each year for the Drama Intensive project. Her most recent play is Pants on Fire, an exploration of circus and lying with P.T. Barnum as the host. Her other plays for students include Lost, based on Grimms' Hansel and Gretel, and My Life as a Greek Tragedy based on Euripides' Orestes. A graduate of Yale University with a degree in Women's Studies, she has an M.A. in education from Antioch University. She currently serves as the board president of ArtsEdWashington (Washington Alliance for Arts Education), a board member of Washington Alliance for Theatre Education, and an advisory board member of Washington Ensemble Theatre (WET).

The Director: Since moving to Seattle in 1989, Scott Koh has performed or directed at the Seattle Shakespeare Company, Annex Theatre, The Northwest Asian American Theatre, Book-It and the late Group and Bathhouse Theatres. At Seattle Repertory Theatre, he directed past Center School productions My Life as a Greek Tragedy and Pants on Fire. He has served as Education Program Manager at Seattle Rep since 1999. Mr. Koh is a graduate of Boston University's College of Fine Arts.

Performance Details: Performances of The School for Scandal: An Adaptation are at 7:30 p.m., Wednesday, May 23, 2007 and Thursday, May 24, 2007 in the Leo K. Theatre at Seattle Repertory Theatre.

The Light in the Piazza - The Paramount Theatre (presented by the Intiman Theatre)

The Light in the Piazza
Intiman Theatre presented at The Paramount Theatre
April 17 – 29, 2007
Tickets and Information

After seeing The Light in the Piazza, it is clear how this production has racked up six Tony Awards in addition to earning the Intiman Theatre the award for Best Regional Theater during its original premier here in Seattle. Employing the designs from the original production, the show achieves its fullest potential in all aspects.

Christine Andreas (playing Margaret Johnson) is the Light in the Piazza. With a voice straight from the era of the forties and fifties, Andreas’ performance captivates the audience with a power rarely witnessed in the American musical theater world today. To balance her powerhouse performance with a suave and cool presentation, David Bernham (Fabrizio) passionately glides through each note and encompasses the Italian ardor while allowing enough of himself to shine through in order to draw in the hearts of the audience. Along side Bernham and Andreas leaps the character Clara (played by Katie Rose Clark). Undertaking an extremely difficult role (revealed throughout the performance), Clark tackles the character with vehement choices, though at times overzealously.

The subtle and simultaneously poignant lighting by Christopher Akerlind presents the audience with a spectacle of Tony Award-winning brilliance. Utilizing a combination of spots and filled lighting, Akerlind very efficiently creates the world in which the characters reside. Michael Yeargan’s also Tony Award-winning scenic design creates a world in which the grandiose and simple meet in a titillating waltz. As the emotions swirl on stage into climaxes, the very walls gyrate into confusion and reform into the felt room created by the characters’ own passions.

This grandiose yet undemanding concept carried though by director Bartlett Sher allows the audience to completely indulge effortlessly into the experience. Sher’s direction of The Light in the Piazza brings forth all of the simple beauty of a classic love story and the ostentatious magic of a spectacular piece of musical theatre. Augmented magnificently by James Lowe’s conduction of an unbelievably talented orchestra, The Light in the Piazza is a delightfully becoming production not to be missed.

Gem of the Ocean - Seattle Repertory Theatre

Gem of the Ocean
Seattle Repertory Theatre
Ticekts and Information
April 11 - May 6, 2007

August Wilson’s Century Cycle plays chronicle African-American history in the United States from 1904 through 1990. Gem of the Ocean begins August Wilson’s Cycle, chronicling 1904, and ends the run of his complete works at the Seattle Repertory Theatre. Relating the story of several members of the Hill District of Pittsburgh, 1904, Gem of the Ocean gives the audience a glance into the freshly post-Civil War times in the United States through the eyes of the still-oppressed African Americans. When a young man named Citizen appears on the scene, Aunt Ester and her friends help him to find the City of Bones, a mystical place where freedom is the only reigning law.

Directed by Phylicia Rashad, best known for her roles as Claire Huxtable on The Cosby Show and Ruth Lucas on Cosby, this performance pulls forth every ounce of energy the actors can muster and then some. Aided by a phenomenal cast of incredibly strong actors, Rashad provides a dazzling show. The precision of every moment and the naturalism of each character give Gem of the Ocean the uncanny and ever-coveted ability to draw each audience member into its folds for its full three hours.

Allen Lee Hughes’ lighting design, enhanced by John Lacovelli’s scenic design, brought the play to life even further. The gentle changes and painted picturesque designs lend the production a touch of magic throughout the entire performance. Additionally, Kathryn Bostic’s composition and arrangement of the music provides an incredibly apropos mood to the production. The simultaneous simplicity and complexity of the pieces add dramatically to the feeling of the show.

Completing Seattle Repertory Theatre’s productions of August Wilson’s Century Cycle plays, Gem of the Ocean not only encapsulates the feeling of the Cycle, but also draws the Rep’s season to a close. Not overly labored yet poignant in purpose, Gem of the Ocean will draw each member of every audience into its simple magic and mystic naturalism.
