In 1993, Kushner won the Pulitzer Prize for Drama for ANGELS IN AMERICA: MILLENIUM APPROACHES, which Dobama produced in 1998, and his most recent play (completed before September 11) takes the audience into the culture of Afghanistan to ask the questions we're all asking ourselves ??? how did we get to where we are now and where do we go from here? Here's what media have said about Kushner???s socially and politically charged journey into the culture of Afghanistan: "An eerily prescient play???blazes with an intensity that defines Kushner???s best work." AP "Brilliant" American Theatre "???the most remarkable play in a decade???without a doubt the most important of our time." New York Observer "???a yearning to go beyond domestic stories and into the great world of political struggle. Brilliant. It keeps us thinking."

This individual must possess strong keyboard (both organ and piano) skills, ability in choral directing, and some background in church music and worship liturgy. Personal qualities must include: the ability to work comfortably and productively with all kinds of people; creativity and excitement about trying new ideas; strong commitment to the music program as part of the total ministry of the church; flexibility and spontaneity; and a keen sense of humor. The time commitment for this position is: Sunday mornings; 9:30 for choral warm up, 10:30 for Worship Service, and one 1&1/2 hour midweek choir rehearsal (choir breaks in the summer), with some special services on church holidays. We at South Haven are a congregation ALIVE WITH JOY! Our 100+ membership is diverse in age, race, personal situation, and church background... and we ALL love the music program!

Message-ID: Hello, Northeast Ohio Theatre and Arts Supporter! I am writing to see if your theatre is able to provide a home for "Hedda" -- Henrik Ibsen's classic drama, "Hedda Gabler", that is. I am looking for an area theatre that has a time slot open for a royalty-free director's special production of "Hedda Gabler" to be rehearsed and staged anytime between the months of January through April of 2003. The show is also available as a summer director's special to be rehearsed and staged July through August of 2003. As you probably already know, "Hedda Gabler" has been revived on Broadway and current interest in the play is strong. Ibsen's amazing play was groundbreaking in the nineteenth-century and remains innovative and controversial in nature even today. The drama is an unforgettable m?lange of intrigue, desperation, female subjugation, class war, and family strife. Hedda herself is an extraordinarily dazzling, complex female character bravely created during a time period when women in plays were expected to be cardboard cutouts, nothing more. "Hedda Gabler" is a brilliant play that has existed in relative obscurity for far too long. Community theatre audiences deserve to see this haunting work. It is time to bring "Hedda Gabler" into the mainstream so that everyone may experience the power of Ibsen's story. Won't your theatre consider hosting this astonishing drama? Financially, "Hedda" is a real bargain -- the play has passed into the public domain and no royalties need to be paid for its use. The cast is small and the set is relatively simple. In fact, "Hedda" is ideal for a black-box theatre or a second stage production. Ticket sales will be high because the play is extremely popular on Broadway right now. Finally, I am dedicated to this play, and as an experienced director I will direct a vibrant production your audience members won't soon forget. Thank you for your time and consideration! Please email me at lakeerieplayers at lycos.com or call me at (440) 346-8559 if you are interested in this project. I will be happy to forward you a copy of my directing resume. I will look forward to hearing that Hedda has found a home soon!

On the 18th of January, 1788= the first fleet of British prison ships, under the command of Arthur Philli= p, arrive at Botany Bay in New South Wales, Australia and soon settle up the= coast at Port Jackson, the site of current-day Sydney.

The works of Tony Kushner belong firmly in the second category. Sitting in his office in Union Square, a tiny, book-lined room that is taller than it is wide (with a long ladder leading to the topmost shelf), he talked in specific detail about how he nurtures a work through its creative process. After seeing a play performed, he goes on "tinkering and tightening and tweaking and trying to get it right." This was the case with his first great success, "Angels in America," and it is equally true with "Homebody/Kabul," which had its world premiere last December at the New York Theater Workshop. This play about Afghanistan in the late 1990's received admiring reviews, won several prizes and sold out its limited run off Broadway. Since then it has had three different productions: in Providence, R.I.; Berkeley, Calif.; and London. Even though the work has been published, the playwright is still tweaking the text. By the time it is presented next season at the Steppenwolf Theater Company in Chicago, he hopes to get it right, he said. Then, and only then, might it return to New York. "I really thought I would churn it out and it would be perfect," he said. "I always tell myself that with every play, and of course plays are never like that, or least mine aren't. They tend to cling and cling and need more and more attention." The play had been scheduled to open this month at the Mark Taper Forum in Los Angeles, but Mr. Kushner said it was postponed for two reasons. He was still working on revisions, and he wanted to avoid a synchronicity with the anniversary of the terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon. He wrote the play before Sept. 11, and the subsequent changes are artistic rather than political. After the original run in New York there have been two major changes. As the slash in the title indicates, the play splits into two parts. It opens with an Englishwoman's nonstop virtuosic monologue about the history, ethnography and geography of Afghanistan, and then suddenly switches to Kabul, where the woman's husband and daughter have gone to solve the mystery of her disappearance. She may or may not have been murdered in Afghanistan. As performed in New York by Linda Emond, the monologue was the entire first act, followed by two other acts in which the character did not reappear. When that production closed, Mr. Kushner decided to return to his original idea, which was to follow the monologue with a second scene that takes place in Kabul, a scene that had opened the second act. Staging the monologue by itself, he said, was a mistake. The new sequence "started the motor of the play's story and connected the monologue more powerfully to the rest of the play, and it took some of the time pressure off the second and third acts," giving them a better balance. The other major alteration concerns the daughter and was made at the suggestion of Oskar Eustis, who directed the play at Trinity Repertory Theater in Providence. In the New York production the daughter spends the first half of the second act believing that her mother is dead and trying to find her body. Later she has doubts about her mother's fate. In the revised version the daughter begins with those doubts. "She finds her mother's death implausible," Mr. Kushner said. "She doesn't go out on the streets of Kabul to look for her mother's body but to find her mother who she believes is still alive." Responding to criticism that the daughter was too abrasive, Mr. Kushner said he tried to make her more sympathetic but found that the character was resistant. This is, he realized, a dysfunctional family. The father and daughter are "immensely unhappy," and there was nothing he could do about it. Still, the rewriting continues. It was Mr. Kushner's surmise that all playwrights did it. When it was suggested that Samuel Beckett did not rewrite, he said: "Well, Beckett is like Shakespeare. Johnson says about Shakespeare, `He scarce blotted a line.' Those people aren't human. They're from Mars, or something. I blot. My entire life is about blotting." Then he added, "Brecht is arguably as great a genius as Beckett, and he couldn't stop changing and rethinking." As for Shakespeare, he said, "Directors feel complete freedom to cut and chop and transpose, so in a sense the human race is rewriting him all the time." In Mr. Kushner's case there is something daunting about his process, especially with his two major works. Even as he is rewriting the second half of "Homebody/Kabul," he is also contemplating revisions of "Perestroika," the second half of "Angels in America," which Mike Nichols is directing as a six-hour HBO television mini-series. Reading a biography of Goethe Mr. Kushner discovered that Goethe believed that some of his plays were "incommensurable," that they were inevitably disproportionate, with the two parts of "Faust" being the classic example, the first part complete, the second part less satisfying. "I think all two-part plays follow the `Faust' model," Mr. Kushner said, naming "Peer Gynt," "Dance of Death" and "Angels in America." With "Homebody/Kabul" he hopes to avoid that pitfall. He is aware of the danger in endless rewriting, he said, and pointed to Walt Whitman as someone who damaged his own work: "Every time he put out `Leaves of Grass,' he changed it. `I celebrate myself' became `I celebrate myself, and sing myself.' It got weaker and weaker the more he potchked around with it," he said, summoning up a decidedly un-Whitmanesque image. By his own admission, Mr. Kushner is an obsessive potchkier, someone who makes a fuss, and he can even question the act of inspiration: "A gush of ideas or words absolutely has to be reexamined and reread and worked on. Is it a breaking through of a muse's song, or is it just noise that you generate to distract your terror?" In his case, he fears he is going to fail. He said he began every play with that trepidation. Having said all that, he acknowledged the "Homebody" monologue as a burst of intuition. The British actress Kika Markham had asked him to write a monologue for her. In 1997 he began it in his office and wrote most of it on a night flight to London. Arriving there he checked into a hotel, finished writing the piece and then slept the rest of the day. The next morning he met Ms. Markham and the director Annie Castledine, and the actress read the monologue aloud. "Kika was horrified," he remembered. "She didn't know what the hell she was saying, and I was too tired to know. Annie loved it." The monologue was rushed into performance, running for three weeks in London. "Various friends who saw it said this is a great beginning, but there's so much more to the situation, and the character cannot talk about it." At a much more deliberate pace he wrote "Kabul" to follow "Homebody," and James C. Niola presented the entire work at the New York Theater Workshop in a production starring Ms. Emond. (Ms. Markham later appeared in the full play in London.) When "Homebody/Kabul" was in rehearsal in New York, Mr. Kushner considered bringing the Homebody back onstage in a dream sequence in Kabul. After Ms. Emond read it aloud with the other actors, she told the author she did not think the scene should be in the play. He agreed. Asked if he knew if the character lives or dies, he said: "I have different feelings on different days. I write in longhand, and then I type everything into my computer. In the longhand draft she is dead, and in the version that got into the computer she seems to be not dead. I honestly don't know." For the audience the ending remains ambiguous. On the cover of the published play there is a painting by Mr. Kushner's sister, Lesley, of a spectral form representing the head and shoulders of a woman. In his acknowledgments to the play he says that only he and his sister and other family members "know best and miss most the spirit that haunts the painting and the play." That spirit is Mr. Kushner's mother, a classical musician who died in 1990. "The Homebody is in some ways a portrait of my mother," he said. "There's a particular quality of pride, a virtuosic display and at the same time mortification that seems always to follow on the heels of it. There's a kind of narcissistic wrestling going on in the soul of this woman that I think had a lot to do with my mother, a very loving person but mercurial. She's a very difficult person to talk about, which is also what the daughter finds in the play." His mother saw "Millennium Approaches," Part 1 of "Angels in America," in its first production in Los Angeles in 1990, and, he said, "it scared her," partly because of the closeness to her and her son. In the play the character Joe Pitt telephones his mother and tells her he is gay, a scene from Mr. Kushner's own life. Mr. Kushner's father, also a classical musician, found the work upsetting but immediately told his son that it was a wonderful play. In 1993 "Millennium Approaches" won the Pulitzer Prize. Mr. Kushner is in the midst of a highly creative phase. In addition to his work with Mr. Nichols on the film of "Angels in America" (starring Al Pacino, Meryl Streep and Emma Thompson, with Michael Gambon and Simon Callow as ghosts), he is writing the book and lyrics for a musical, "Caroline or Change," composed by Jeanine Tesori. The musical takes place in Lake Charles, La., where Mr. Kushner grew up. "Even though it's not actually autobiographical, it's the closest to autobiography of anything I've done." He is also writing a film about an episode in the life of Eugene O'Neill, and has been working for many years on "Henry Box Brown," about slavery. The shelves in his office are lined with books on the subject. In common with his other plays, this one will be deeply imbedded in research. While carefully apportioning his time among all these projects, he remains focused on the evolution of "Homebody/Kabul." Suddenly he said: "I have a very radical idea for a rewrite that will make it a much shorter play. I'll take out the meat cleaver and clear away the fat. My suspicion is that it will be a diminishment, but I think it's worth trying." Then there is his long-planned journey to Afghanistan. Nancy Hatch Dupree, who wrote the guidebook that is one of the sources of "Homebody/Kabul," has encouraged him to do a theater workshop with playwrights in Kabul. "I'd love to take her up on it," he said. "But it's a little too volatile there." This would be his first trip to Afghanistan. As always, Mr. Kushner remains an intrepid traveler in his imagination.

Now I'm sure the three fans we have on this list were wondering where the hell we been lately and before ya even ask I did NOT get arrested again! Mike and I finally got around to watching the Simpsons Season 2 DVD plus we had to have our annual End of Summer Multiplex Puke a Thon (Can't lie. Pluto Nash hurt bad. Think the limey had a seizure. I know my eyeballs still hurt. Eddie Murphy, you're a bad man.). Mike:(English accent) All right, I need to get one thing out right off the bat. Ike:(Southern accent) Come on, I wanna do this! M: The children in this were phenomenal. The acting was amazing, voices beautiful. I applaud the concept, I applaud the execution. I: Don't be such a suck up. Lemmie at em! M: I just want to be sure no one thinks we're saying anything negative about the children. I: You done now? M: Yes, rip away! I:(Giggles evilly) You know, I knew there was someone to blame for my hatred of musicals (Cept for Cop Rock). For the longest time I thought it was Andrew Lloyd Webber. M: Not surprising. Is it because he's ripped off--Excuse me--sampled everyone from Puccini to the Mamas and the Papas? I: Nah, I just think he looks creepy. M: Oh. Good enough. I: But since we started doin' this whole the-ater thing--I gotta admit--I've seen some good stuff: Zombie Prom, Urinetown, Eating Raoul. I didn't even mind Rocky Horror. Reminded me a your family. M: You know what reminds me of your family? I: I don't care. So for awhile there everthing was show tunes and Skittles but now NOW!! my hatred of musicals knows no bounds! M: Hey! I: Now I hate musicals more than I hate political groups, tofu, and Temptation Island combined. M: I want to get my insult in! I: And who's to blame for this newfound disgust? The French! First, they import an 18,000 page overly written insomnia cure filled with a bunch of unlikeable obsessive compulsives who whine about how bad their lives are until they all die. THEN, they inflict an 18,000 hour adaption with the same unlikeable obsessive compulsives who now SING about how bad their lives are until they all die. M: The students do more than just whine. They do actually try to change their lives. I: And they all die. M: Well, yes. I: Everyone dies, except for the two lovers who are about as interestin' as a pair of plain white socks. Everbody in this thing is a one note ride. Jean Valjean is oh so good and oh so nice and oh so strong and oh so YECCCH! Inspector Javert is way to obsessed with law and order (And Law and Order-SVU). Heehee. M: I'm going to be hitting you very hard very soon. I: And when he FINALLY realizes that he might be just a tad overzealous in his duties does he think "Wow. In tryin' to do good I've actually been doin' evil, I need to reflect upon my life and change it for the better?" No, he JUMPS OFF A BRIDGE!!!! M: Well, you did say the characters were one note. I: And, of course, since this is a MUSICAL we have to sit through this beautiful, heartfelt, admittedly nice number. About one verse in, though, I wanted to stand up and scream "Shut up and jump, ya freakin coward!" M: I would have paid good money to see that. I: Shoulda said sumthin. Then there are the tavern owners, greedy, unscrupulous, downright evil rat bastards who, of course, have the most fun number in the show. Come to think about it, they don't die either. They should. All the students are brave, headstrong, and wearin' red shirts. M: Think for a moment. It'll come. I: Our dashing hero is just there and all we know about his one true love is that her mom was a hooker and she likes dull men. There's really only one multi layered character in the show. M: Eponine? I: You got it, limey. In one song--Best song in the show, far as I'm concerned--you learn this girl's entire psychological make up (Screwy as it may be).

WARNING:  THE FOLLOWING REVIEW HAS BEEN RATED PG-13 BY THE THEATRICAL CRITICS ASSOCIATION OF AMERICA, THE MOTION PICTURE ASSOCIATION OF AMERICA, THE NATIONAL RIFLE ASSOCIATION, AND THE UNIVERSITY OF AKRON'S LESBIAN GAY BI TRANSGENDER UNION.  THAT SHOULD TELL YOU EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW--Jeff Holland

A special message from Ike:  We're baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaack!

Now I'm sure the three fans we have on this list were wondering where the hell we been lately and before ya even ask I did NOT get arrested again!  Mike and I finally got around to watching the Simpsons Season 2 DVD plus we had to have our annual End of Summer Multiplex Puke a Thon (Can't lie.  Pluto Nash hurt bad.  Think the limey had a seizure.  I know my eyeballs still hurt.  Eddie Murphy, you're a bad man.).

Mike:(English accent) All right, I need to get one thing out right off the bat.

Ike:(Southern accent) Come on, I wanna do this!

M:  The children in this were phenomenal.  The acting was amazing, voices beautiful.  I applaud the concept, I applaud the execution.

I:  Don't be such a suck up.  Lemmie at em!

M:  I just want to be sure no one thinks we're saying anything negative about the children.

I:  You done now?

M:  Yes, rip away!

I:(Giggles evilly) You know, I knew there was someone to blame for my hatred of musicals (Cept for Cop Rock).  For the longest time I thought it was Andrew Lloyd Webber.

M:  Not surprising.  Is it because he's ripped off--Excuse me--sampled everyone from Puccini to the Mamas and the Papas?

I:  Nah, I just think he looks creepy. 

M:  Oh.  Good enough.

I:  But since we started doin' this whole the-ater thing--I gotta admit--I've seen some good stuff:  Zombie Prom, Urinetown, Eating Raoul.  I didn't even mind Rocky Horror.  Reminded me a your family.

M:  You know what reminds me of your family?

I:  I don't care.  So for awhile there everthing was show tunes and Skittles but now NOW!!  my hatred of musicals knows no bounds!

M:  Hey!

I:  Now I hate musicals more than I hate political groups, tofu, and Temptation Island combined.

M:  I want to get my insult in!

I:  And who's to blame for this newfound disgust?  The French!  First, they import an 18,000 page overly written insomnia cure filled with a bunch of unlikeable obsessive compulsives who whine about how bad their lives are until they all die.  THEN, they inflict an 18,000 hour adaption with the same unlikeable obsessive compulsives who now SING about how bad their lives are until they all die.

M:  The students do more than just whine.  They do actually try to change their lives.

I:  And they all die.

M:  Well, yes.

I:  Everyone dies, except for the two lovers who are about as interestin' as a pair of plain white socks.  Everbody in this thing is a one note ride.  Jean Valjean is oh so good and oh so nice and oh so strong and oh so YECCCH!  Inspector Javert is way to obsessed with law and order (And Law and Order-SVU).  Heehee.

M:  I'm going to be hitting you very hard very soon.

I:  And when he FINALLY realizes that he might be just a tad overzealous in his duties does he think "Wow.  In tryin' to do good I've actually been doin' evil, I need to reflect upon my life and change it for the better?"  No, he JUMPS OFF A BRIDGE!!!! 

M:  Well, you did say the characters were one note.

I:  And, of course, since this is a MUSICAL we have to sit through this beautiful, heartfelt, admittedly nice number.  About one verse in, though, I wanted to stand up and scream "Shut up and jump, ya freakin coward!"

M:  I would have paid good money to see that.

I:  Shoulda said sumthin.  Then there are the tavern owners, greedy, unscrupulous, downright evil rat bastards who, of course, have the most fun number in the show.  Come to think about it, they don't die either.  They should.  All the students are brave, headstrong, and wearin' red shirts.

M:  Think for a moment.  It'll come.

I:  Our dashing hero is just there and all we know about his one true love is that her mom was a hooker and she likes dull men.  There's really only one multi layered character in the show.

M:  Eponine?

I:  You got it, limey.  In one song--Best song in the show, far as I'm concerned--you learn this girl's entire psychological make up (Screwy as it may be).  You really hope she has some happiness in her life . . . until she gets a bullet in the boobs.  And don't even get me started on Gavroche!

M:  Okay, here we are in complete agreement!  He is just annoying.

I:  Not as irritatin' as his song.  "Little People."  YECCCH!!  I didn't mind when he died.  Oh!  Oh!  Speaking of irritatin' songs.  (Singing) "There is a castle on a cloud.  There is a rifle in my hand."

Mike laughs.

I:  Now, I admit, three of the songs are purty damn good.  (Pause) So are you gonna set up the next one or not?

M:(Sighing) Fine.  What did you think of the ending?

I:  No, I didn't hear the people sing . . . cause THEY WERE ALL DEAD!!

M:  Come on, Ike.  They're just children.

I:  Have I mentioned that at all, no!  But since you brought it up--

M:  Oh, God.

I:  I'm sorry but the whole "French revolution fought by junior high students" was just eerie to me.  I know everbody else, including you, has been bouncin' off the walls for this thing.  "Aww, look at all the cute kids doing this big famous musical!"  Look at all the cute kids doing a show which basically says in order to succeed in life you must either be borin' or evil and that if you try to change your life you'll get beaten, have your head shaved, and then die!  But the kids were good.

I:  What?

M:  Think for a moment.  It'll come.

[NEohioPAL]PARADE INFORMATIVE AT CASSIDY/KABUL A LONG SIT AT DOBAMA Message-ID: <20020915215154.17610.qmail@web12005.mail.yahoo.com> PARADE ENLIGHTENS AT CASSIDY/DOBAMA?S HOMEBODY/KABUL A LONG SIT --THE TIMES NEWSPAPERS-- Roy Berko (Member, American Theatre Critics Association) Lorain County Times--Westlaker Times--Lakewood News Times--Olmsted-Fairview Times PARADE ENLIGHTENS AT CASSIDY Cassidy Theatre is noted as a community theatre which tends to play it safe. It produces the likes of Neil Simon comedies and pleasant Broadway hit musicals. That?s what its generally conservative audience wants, and the audience is composed of local taxpayers who financially support the theatre. But every once in a while the theatre goes out on a wing. They are doing that now with the musical PARADE. They are, in fact, one of the first nonprofessional theatres in the country to tackle this controversial piece. The show has two major blocks to success. The production requires a huge cast, in Cassidy?s case, over 35 bodies. The players must be talented enough to both act and sing their way through a script that requires high drama and good voices. Secondly, the story is very serious, not normally the basis for audience enjoyment. In 1913, Leo Frank, a Brooklyn-born Jew living in Georgia, was put on trial for the murder of 13-year-old Mary Phagan, a factory worker under his employ. Though innocent, he is guilty in the eyes of everyone around him who. They don?t like that he is Jewish, a northerner, and rich. His only defenders are a governor with a conscience, and his assimilated Southern wife who finds the strength and love to become his champion. PARADE tells the story pretty accurately, even including actual words spoken by the real-life characters. Its goal is to educate people about the tragedy of prejudice. It is successful in doing this. As one critic said, "I left the theatre shaking, horrified at what I'd just seen, moved to tears. Real life dramas are hard enough, but stories this tragic are just shattering." The show won two Tony Awards. Cassidy is fortunate that its former artistic director David Jecman has returned to take on the production. Jecman has a clear sense of purpose for the staging. He also knows the limits of his amateur cast and has not sugar-coated the material. Don Irven portrays Leo Frank with well-measured compassion. Maggie Wirfel gives a polished performance as Frank?s wife. Jecman, in contrast to most directors, has paid much attention to the supporting players and the effort shows. The highlight of the show is the well-honed trial segment. Is the production perfect? No, the choreography is weak, some of the acting is very amateurish, several performers over act, and the required southern drawls come and go. But this is a community theatre and an amateur production that has undertaken the staging of a tough show. In spite of Jecman and the cast?s work, and the high quality of the script, some audience members vocally indicated they didn?t "enjoy" the production. This, of course, was not the university reaction, it is ironic that in the area of Cuyahoga county which has had much publicity regarding its lack of openness to minorities, some people would reject their being educated to the horrors of prejudice. People like the woman who vocally complained as she marched down the aisle at intermission, "I didn?t come to the theatre to see stuff like this," ought to realize that not all life?s experiences are meant to be "enjoyed!" This is a show worth seeing! PARADE will be performed at the Cassidy Theatre, 6200 Pearl Road, Parma Heights through September 29. Tickets may be obtained by calling 440-842-4600. DOBAMA?S HOMEBODY/KABUL IS A LONG SIT Tony Kushner is noted as being a political playwright. He has charted German social democratic impotence in A BRIGHT ROOM CALLED DAY. In SLAVS, he probes the death of the Soviet Union. In his most acclaimed work, the two-part, nine-hour epic ANGELS IN AMERICA, he examines personal suffering and betrayal in the worlds of disease, homophobia, and reactionary politics. In all of his plays he uses lots and lots and lots of words. At the beginning of PERESTROIKA (part two of ANGELS IN AMERICA) a character asks, "The great question before us is: will the past release us?" He continues to probe that question in his rambling new play HOMEBODY/KABUL, which is getting its midwestern debut at Dobama Theatre. Ironically, Kushner wrote the play before 9/11/2001. This makes the work, which is set in Afghanistan, rather remarkable and a little eerie. He talks about places and topics that most Americans weren?t even aware of before that fateful date. Our journey starts with an hour-long monologue in which Homebody, a middle-aged British matron, offers glimpses of the pain of a loveless marriage as she conjures a stream-of-consciousness vision of an ancient land and culture, a place of "strangeness and beauty." A place from which history dawns and is the burial sight of Cain, the killing brother of Bibical history. Homebody leaves home to visit Afghanistan and disappears. What happened to her is the mystery that her husband, an uncommunicative communications expert, and her daughter, a neurotic, alienated young woman, strive to discover during the next two acts. Was she killed by a mob offended by her apparent flouting of Muslim female propriety? Is she still alive? Has she taken the veil and married a Muslim doctor? As is his habit, Kushner layers his narrative with fascinating historical facts and observations, in this case, Western and Afghan culture. Some scenes are powerful such as when a rejected Afghan wife rages at the West's complicity in bringing the Taliban to power. Some are seemingly meaningless bits of information. In reality, the play could have ended with the conclusion of the first act and been satisfying. In spite of some brilliant dialogue and philosophical importance, Kushner does not heed the adage, "The mind can absorb what the seat can endure." The major topic at both intermissions on opening night was the interminable length of the show. Dobama?s production is well staged. Nan Wray is nothing short of brilliant as Homebody. Robert Hawkes, is properly emotionally challenged as the very linear husband. Scott Platte is effective in his role as an undefined diplomat. Bernadette Clemens is often too strident as the daughter. Jean Zarzour gives a special dimension to the Muslim doctor?s shunned wife. Director Joel Hammer should have been aware that modern-day audiences, even the intellectual ones who attend Dobama productions, are not going to cotton to a play that clocks in at 3 hours, 45 minutes. If Kushner wouldn?t cut the script, Hammer should have. Sections could have been red penciled without destroying the message, probably enhancing the meaning. HOMEBODY/KABUL plays at Dobama Theatre, 1846 Coventry Road, Cleveland Heights through October 6. For tickets call 216-932-6838. __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?

Near West Theatre is in the process of casting a large musical version of SCROOGE.

DOBAMA presents the MIDWEST premiere of HOMEBODY/KABUL By Tony Kushner Directed by Joel Hammer Performances September 13-October 6 THURS/FRI/SAT at 7:30 PM SUN 9/15 at 7 PM, 9/22, 9/29, 10/6 at 2 PM "We are extremely privileged to be only the fourth theater in the nation and the first in the Midwest to present HOMEBODY, a play that couldn???t be more 'to the moment' in this current climate of distrust and fear," says Joyce Casey, Dobama???s Artistic Director. In 1993, Kushner won the Pulitzer Prize for Drama for ANGELS IN AMERICA: MILLENIUM APPROACHES, which Dobama produced in 1998, and his most recent play (completed before September 11) takes the audience into the culture of Afghanistan to ask the questions we're all asking ourselves ??? how did we get to where we are now and where do we go from here? Here's what media have said about Kushner???s socially and politically charged journey into the culture of Afghanistan: "An eerily prescient play???blazes with an intensity that defines Kushner???s best work." AP "Brilliant" American Theatre "???the most remarkable play in a decade???without a doubt the most important of our time." New York Observer "???a yearning to go beyond domestic stories and into the great world of political struggle. Brilliant. It keeps us thinking."

This individual must possess strong keyboard (both organ and piano) skills, ability in choral directing, and some background in church music and worship liturgy. Personal qualities must include: the ability to work comfortably and productively with all kinds of people; creativity and excitement about trying new ideas; strong commitment to the music program as part of the total ministry of the church; flexibility and spontaneity; and a keen sense of humor. The time commitment for this position is: Sunday mornings; 9:30 for choral warm up, 10:30 for Worship Service, and one 1&1/2 hour midweek choir rehearsal (choir breaks in the summer), with some special services on church holidays. We at South Haven are a congregation ALIVE WITH JOY! Our 100+ membership is diverse in age, race, personal situation, and church background... and we ALL love the music program!

Message-ID: Hello, Northeast Ohio Theatre and Arts Supporter! I am writing to see if your theatre is able to provide a home for "Hedda" -- Henrik Ibsen's classic drama, "Hedda Gabler", that is. I am looking for an area theatre that has a time slot open for a royalty-free director's special production of "Hedda Gabler" to be rehearsed and staged anytime between the months of January through April of 2003. The show is also available as a summer director's special to be rehearsed and staged July through August of 2003. As you probably already know, "Hedda Gabler" has been revived on Broadway and current interest in the play is strong. Ibsen's amazing play was groundbreaking in the nineteenth-century and remains innovative and controversial in nature even today. The drama is an unforgettable m?lange of intrigue, desperation, female subjugation, class war, and family strife. Hedda herself is an extraordinarily dazzling, complex female character bravely created during a time period when women in plays were expected to be cardboard cutouts, nothing more. "Hedda Gabler" is a brilliant play that has existed in relative obscurity for far too long. Community theatre audiences deserve to see this haunting work. It is time to bring "Hedda Gabler" into the mainstream so that everyone may experience the power of Ibsen's story. Won't your theatre consider hosting this astonishing drama? Financially, "Hedda" is a real bargain -- the play has passed into the public domain and no royalties need to be paid for its use. The cast is small and the set is relatively simple. In fact, "Hedda" is ideal for a black-box theatre or a second stage production. Ticket sales will be high because the play is extremely popular on Broadway right now. Finally, I am dedicated to this play, and as an experienced director I will direct a vibrant production your audience members won't soon forget. Thank you for your time and consideration! Please email me at lakeerieplayers at lycos.com or call me at (440) 346-8559 if you are interested in this project. I will be happy to forward you a copy of my directing resume. I will look forward to hearing that Hedda has found a home soon! Sincerely, Marifrances Conrad, Director ___________________________________________________ Communicate with others using Lycos Mail for FREE! http://mail.lycos.com From Marianne.Paul at huntington.com Tue Sep 10 11:06:01 2002 From: Marianne.Paul at huntington.com (Marianne.Paul at huntington.com) Date: Tue Sep 10 11:06:01 2002 Subject: [NEohioPAL]Aurora Community Theatre needs actress in 50's!!

When the military governor advocated that people can be ennobled=20 through art, prisoners were conscripted to perform the continents first ever= =20 theatrical production and the colony became, for a moment, a humane and=20 dignified place.

Many of the prisoners have been convicted of minor theft (stealing a loaf of= =20 bread was crime enough to earn deportation) and many of their wardens are=20 military men who fought and lost the war against the American colonies. Ther= e=20 is a sense that they have all of them been condemned: to the task of foundin= g=20 a self-sustaining colony in a land where farming is difficult, disease is=20 rampant, the laborers unwilling and the aboriginal population often hostile. At a time of extremely low supplies and low hopes, with the future of the=20 colony in question, 2nd Lieutenant Ralph Clark decides to stage a production= =20 of George Farquhar's comedy "The Recruiting Officer" using convicts, many of= =20 them illiterate, as his cast. His intention is not only to raise morale but=20 also make a favorable impression upon his superiors and secure a promotion.=20 The project immediately takes on political dimensions and meets with=20 opposition among the other officers.

About the Playwright Ms. Timberlake Wertenbaker, a playwright who gained much acclaim in the=20 British theatre in the 1980's, wrote this play after reading about the=20 history of the convict transportation and this noteworthy amateur theatrical= =20 performance. It is her design, in Our Country's Good, that the actors play=20 both convicts and jailers -- a rich device that places on trial all of our=20 assumptions about what "civilization" means.

Our Country's Good is Timberlake Wertenbaker=E2=80=99s dark comedy ba= sed on Thomas Keneally=E2=80=99s novel The Playmaker.  Our Country's Go= od relates the true story of the first theatrical performance in the penal c= olony that was Australia in 1789.  When the military governor advocated= that people can be ennobled through art, prisoners were conscripted to perf= orm the continents first ever theatrical production and the colony became, f= or a moment, a humane and dignified place.  This =E2=80=9Cexpression of= civilization=E2=80=9D brilliantly juxtaposes disproportionally harsh penal=20= conditions against the civilizing influence of theatrical endeavor.

The Story

At the Sydney Cove penal col= ony in 1788, a young lieutenant directs rehearsals of the Restoration comedy= "The Recruiting Officer." With only two copies of the text, a cast of convi= cts, opposition from sadistic officers, and a leading lady about to be hange= d, the production is in trouble from the start...Based on a historical incid= ent and on Thomas Kenneally's novel "The Playmaker."  Timberlake Werten= baker's inspirational play, shows us the redemptive, transcendental power of= theatre with great elegance and passion.  Now recognized as a modern c= lassic, and an A-level set text, it was first performed at the Royal Court T= heatre, London in 1988, winning the Laurence Olivier Award that year.

On the 18th of January, 1788= the first fleet of British prison ships, under the command of Arthur Philli= p, arrive at Botany Bay in New South Wales, Australia and soon settle up the= coast at Port Jackson, the site of current-day Sydney.

Many of the prisoners have been convicted of minor theft (stealing a loaf of= bread was crime enough to earn deportation) and many of their wardens are m= ilitary men who fought and lost the war against the American colonies. There= is a sense that they have all of them been condemned: to the task of foundi= ng a self-sustaining colony in a land where farming is difficult, disease is= rampant, the laborers unwilling and the aboriginal population often hostile= .

At a time of extremely low supplies and low hopes, with the future of the co= lony in question, 2nd Lieutenant Ralph Clark decides to stage a production o= f George Farquhar's comedy "The Recruiting Officer" using convicts, many of=20= them illiterate, as his cast. His intention is not only to raise morale but=20= also make a favorable impression upon his superiors and secure a promotion.=20= The project immediately takes on political dimensions and meets with opposit= ion among the other officers. As his opening night nears Clark struggles to=20= ready the play amidst a storm of questions about the possibility of redempti= on and the transforming powers of theatre.

About the Playwright

Ms. Timberlake Wertenbaker, a playwright who gained much acclaim in the Brit= ish theatre in the 1980's, wrote this play after reading about the history o= f the convict transportation and this noteworthy amateur theatrical performa= nce. It is her design, in Our Country's Good, that the actors play both conv= icts and jailers -- a rich device that places on trial all of our assumption= s about what "civilization" means. One critic "a tribute to the transforming= power of drama.

The works of Tony Kushner belong firmly in the second category. Sitting in his office in Union Square, a tiny, book-lined room that is taller than it is wide (with a long ladder leading to the topmost shelf), he talked in specific detail about how he nurtures a work through its creative process. After seeing a play performed, he goes on "tinkering and tightening and tweaking and trying to get it right." This was the case with his first great success, "Angels in America," and it is equally true with "Homebody/Kabul," which had its world premiere last December at the New York Theater Workshop. This play about Afghanistan in the late 1990's received admiring reviews, won several prizes and sold out its limited run off Broadway. Since then it has had three different productions: in Providence, R.I.; Berkeley, Calif.; and London. Even though the work has been published, the playwright is still tweaking the text. By the time it is presented next season at the Steppenwolf Theater Company in Chicago, he hopes to get it right, he said. Then, and only then, might it return to New York. "I really thought I would churn it out and it would be perfect," he said. "I always tell myself that with every play, and of course plays are never like that, or least mine aren't. They tend to cling and cling and need more and more attention." The play had been scheduled to open this month at the Mark Taper Forum in Los Angeles, but Mr. Kushner said it was postponed for two reasons. He was still working on revisions, and he wanted to avoid a synchronicity with the anniversary of the terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon. He wrote the play before Sept. 11, and the subsequent changes are artistic rather than political. After the original run in New York there have been two major changes. As the slash in the title indicates, the play splits into two parts. It opens with an Englishwoman's nonstop virtuosic monologue about the history, ethnography and geography of Afghanistan, and then suddenly switches to Kabul, where the woman's husband and daughter have gone to solve the mystery of her disappearance. She may or may not have been murdered in Afghanistan. As performed in New York by Linda Emond, the monologue was the entire first act, followed by two other acts in which the character did not reappear. When that production closed, Mr. Kushner decided to return to his original idea, which was to follow the monologue with a second scene that takes place in Kabul, a scene that had opened the second act. Staging the monologue by itself, he said, was a mistake. The new sequence "started the motor of the play's story and connected the monologue more powerfully to the rest of the play, and it took some of the time pressure off the second and third acts," giving them a better balance. The other major alteration concerns the daughter and was made at the suggestion of Oskar Eustis, who directed the play at Trinity Repertory Theater in Providence. In the New York production the daughter spends the first half of the second act believing that her mother is dead and trying to find her body. Later she has doubts about her mother's fate. In the revised version the daughter begins with those doubts. "She finds her mother's death implausible," Mr. Kushner said. "She doesn't go out on the streets of Kabul to look for her mother's body but to find her mother who she believes is still alive." Responding to criticism that the daughter was too abrasive, Mr. Kushner said he tried to make her more sympathetic but found that the character was resistant. This is, he realized, a dysfunctional family. The father and daughter are "immensely unhappy," and there was nothing he could do about it. Still, the rewriting continues. It was Mr. Kushner's surmise that all playwrights did it. When it was suggested that Samuel Beckett did not rewrite, he said: "Well, Beckett is like Shakespeare. Johnson says about Shakespeare, `He scarce blotted a line.' Those people aren't human. They're from Mars, or something. I blot. My entire life is about blotting." Then he added, "Brecht is arguably as great a genius as Beckett, and he couldn't stop changing and rethinking." As for Shakespeare, he said, "Directors feel complete freedom to cut and chop and transpose, so in a sense the human race is rewriting him all the time." In Mr. Kushner's case there is something daunting about his process, especially with his two major works. Even as he is rewriting the second half of "Homebody/Kabul," he is also contemplating revisions of "Perestroika," the second half of "Angels in America," which Mike Nichols is directing as a six-hour HBO television mini-series. Reading a biography of Goethe Mr. Kushner discovered that Goethe believed that some of his plays were "incommensurable," that they were inevitably disproportionate, with the two parts of "Faust" being the classic example, the first part complete, the second part less satisfying. "I think all two-part plays follow the `Faust' model," Mr. Kushner said, naming "Peer Gynt," "Dance of Death" and "Angels in America." With "Homebody/Kabul" he hopes to avoid that pitfall. He is aware of the danger in endless rewriting, he said, and pointed to Walt Whitman as someone who damaged his own work: "Every time he put out `Leaves of Grass,' he changed it. `I celebrate myself' became `I celebrate myself, and sing myself.' It got weaker and weaker the more he potchked around with it," he said, summoning up a decidedly un-Whitmanesque image. By his own admission, Mr. Kushner is an obsessive potchkier, someone who makes a fuss, and he can even question the act of inspiration: "A gush of ideas or words absolutely has to be reexamined and reread and worked on. Is it a breaking through of a muse's song, or is it just noise that you generate to distract your terror?" In his case, he fears he is going to fail. He said he began every play with that trepidation. Having said all that, he acknowledged the "Homebody" monologue as a burst of intuition. The British actress Kika Markham had asked him to write a monologue for her. In 1997 he began it in his office and wrote most of it on a night flight to London. Arriving there he checked into a hotel, finished writing the piece and then slept the rest of the day. The next morning he met Ms. Markham and the director Annie Castledine, and the actress read the monologue aloud. "Kika was horrified," he remembered. "She didn't know what the hell she was saying, and I was too tired to know. Annie loved it." The monologue was rushed into performance, running for three weeks in London. "Various friends who saw it said this is a great beginning, but there's so much more to the situation, and the character cannot talk about it." At a much more deliberate pace he wrote "Kabul" to follow "Homebody," and James C. Niola presented the entire work at the New York Theater Workshop in a production starring Ms. Emond. (Ms. Markham later appeared in the full play in London.) When "Homebody/Kabul" was in rehearsal in New York, Mr. Kushner considered bringing the Homebody back onstage in a dream sequence in Kabul. After Ms. Emond read it aloud with the other actors, she told the author she did not think the scene should be in the play. He agreed. Asked if he knew if the character lives or dies, he said: "I have different feelings on different days. I write in longhand, and then I type everything into my computer. In the longhand draft she is dead, and in the version that got into the computer she seems to be not dead. I honestly don't know." For the audience the ending remains ambiguous. On the cover of the published play there is a painting by Mr. Kushner's sister, Lesley, of a spectral form representing the head and shoulders of a woman. In his acknowledgments to the play he says that only he and his sister and other family members "know best and miss most the spirit that haunts the painting and the play." That spirit is Mr. Kushner's mother, a classical musician who died in 1990. "The Homebody is in some ways a portrait of my mother," he said. "There's a particular quality of pride, a virtuosic display and at the same time mortification that seems always to follow on the heels of it. There's a kind of narcissistic wrestling going on in the soul of this woman that I think had a lot to do with my mother, a very loving person but mercurial. She's a very difficult person to talk about, which is also what the daughter finds in the play." His mother saw "Millennium Approaches," Part 1 of "Angels in America," in its first production in Los Angeles in 1990, and, he said, "it scared her," partly because of the closeness to her and her son. In the play the character Joe Pitt telephones his mother and tells her he is gay, a scene from Mr. Kushner's own life. Mr. Kushner's father, also a classical musician, found the work upsetting but immediately told his son that it was a wonderful play. In 1993 "Millennium Approaches" won the Pulitzer Prize. Mr. Kushner is in the midst of a highly creative phase. In addition to his work with Mr. Nichols on the film of "Angels in America" (starring Al Pacino, Meryl Streep and Emma Thompson, with Michael Gambon and Simon Callow as ghosts), he is writing the book and lyrics for a musical, "Caroline or Change," composed by Jeanine Tesori. The musical takes place in Lake Charles, La., where Mr. Kushner grew up. "Even though it's not actually autobiographical, it's the closest to autobiography of anything I've done." He is also writing a film about an episode in the life of Eugene O'Neill, and has been working for many years on "Henry Box Brown," about slavery. The shelves in his office are lined with books on the subject. In common with his other plays, this one will be deeply imbedded in research. While carefully apportioning his time among all these projects, he remains focused on the evolution of "Homebody/Kabul." Suddenly he said: "I have a very radical idea for a rewrite that will make it a much shorter play. I'll take out the meat cleaver and clear away the fat. My suspicion is that it will be a diminishment, but I think it's worth trying." Then there is his long-planned journey to Afghanistan. Nancy Hatch Dupree, who wrote the guidebook that is one of the sources of "Homebody/Kabul," has encouraged him to do a theater workshop with playwrights in Kabul. "I'd love to take her up on it," he said. "But it's a little too volatile there." This would be his first trip to Afghanistan. As always, Mr. Kushner remains an intrepid traveler in his imagination.

[NEohioPAL]PARADE INFORMATIVE AT CASSIDY/KABUL A LONG SIT AT DOBAMA Message-ID: <20020915215154.17610.qmail@web12005.mail.yahoo.com> PARADE ENLIGHTENS AT CASSIDY/DOBAMA?S HOMEBODY/KABUL A LONG SIT --THE TIMES NEWSPAPERS-- Roy Berko (Member, American Theatre Critics Association) Lorain County Times--Westlaker Times--Lakewood News Times--Olmsted-Fairview Times PARADE ENLIGHTENS AT CASSIDY Cassidy Theatre is noted as a community theatre which tends to play it safe. It produces the likes of Neil Simon comedies and pleasant Broadway hit musicals. That?s what its generally conservative audience wants, and the audience is composed of local taxpayers who financially support the theatre. But every once in a while the theatre goes out on a wing. They are doing that now with the musical PARADE. They are, in fact, one of the first nonprofessional theatres in the country to tackle this controversial piece. The show has two major blocks to success. The production requires a huge cast, in Cassidy?s case, over 35 bodies. The players must be talented enough to both act and sing their way through a script that requires high drama and good voices. Secondly, the story is very serious, not normally the basis for audience enjoyment. In 1913, Leo Frank, a Brooklyn-born Jew living in Georgia, was put on trial for the murder of 13-year-old Mary Phagan, a factory worker under his employ. Though innocent, he is guilty in the eyes of everyone around him who. They don?t like that he is Jewish, a northerner, and rich. His only defenders are a governor with a conscience, and his assimilated Southern wife who finds the strength and love to become his champion. PARADE tells the story pretty accurately, even including actual words spoken by the real-life characters. Its goal is to educate people about the tragedy of prejudice. It is successful in doing this. As one critic said, "I left the theatre shaking, horrified at what I'd just seen, moved to tears. Real life dramas are hard enough, but stories this tragic are just shattering." The show won two Tony Awards. Cassidy is fortunate that its former artistic director David Jecman has returned to take on the production. Jecman has a clear sense of purpose for the staging. He also knows the limits of his amateur cast and has not sugar-coated the material. Don Irven portrays Leo Frank with well-measured compassion. Maggie Wirfel gives a polished performance as Frank?s wife. Jecman, in contrast to most directors, has paid much attention to the supporting players and the effort shows. The highlight of the show is the well-honed trial segment. Is the production perfect? No, the choreography is weak, some of the acting is very amateurish, several performers over act, and the required southern drawls come and go. But this is a community theatre and an amateur production that has undertaken the staging of a tough show. In spite of Jecman and the cast?s work, and the high quality of the script, some audience members vocally indicated they didn?t "enjoy" the production. This, of course, was not the university reaction, it is ironic that in the area of Cuyahoga county which has had much publicity regarding its lack of openness to minorities, some people would reject their being educated to the horrors of prejudice. People like the woman who vocally complained as she marched down the aisle at intermission, "I didn?t come to the theatre to see stuff like this," ought to realize that not all life?s experiences are meant to be "enjoyed!" This is a show worth seeing! PARADE will be performed at the Cassidy Theatre, 6200 Pearl Road, Parma Heights through September 29. Tickets may be obtained by calling 440-842-4600. DOBAMA?S HOMEBODY/KABUL IS A LONG SIT Tony Kushner is noted as being a political playwright. He has charted German social democratic impotence in A BRIGHT ROOM CALLED DAY. In SLAVS, he probes the death of the Soviet Union. In his most acclaimed work, the two-part, nine-hour epic ANGELS IN AMERICA, he examines personal suffering and betrayal in the worlds of disease, homophobia, and reactionary politics. In all of his plays he uses lots and lots and lots of words. At the beginning of PERESTROIKA (part two of ANGELS IN AMERICA) a character asks, "The great question before us is: will the past release us?" He continues to probe that question in his rambling new play HOMEBODY/KABUL, which is getting its midwestern debut at Dobama Theatre. Ironically, Kushner wrote the play before 9/11/2001. This makes the work, which is set in Afghanistan, rather remarkable and a little eerie. He talks about places and topics that most Americans weren?t even aware of before that fateful date. Our journey starts with an hour-long monologue in which Homebody, a middle-aged British matron, offers glimpses of the pain of a loveless marriage as she conjures a stream-of-consciousness vision of an ancient land and culture, a place of "strangeness and beauty." A place from which history dawns and is the burial sight of Cain, the killing brother of Bibical history. Homebody leaves home to visit Afghanistan and disappears. What happened to her is the mystery that her husband, an uncommunicative communications expert, and her daughter, a neurotic, alienated young woman, strive to discover during the next two acts. Was she killed by a mob offended by her apparent flouting of Muslim female propriety? Is she still alive? Has she taken the veil and married a Muslim doctor? As is his habit, Kushner layers his narrative with fascinating historical facts and observations, in this case, Western and Afghan culture. Some scenes are powerful such as when a rejected Afghan wife rages at the West's complicity in bringing the Taliban to power. Some are seemingly meaningless bits of information. In reality, the play could have ended with the conclusion of the first act and been satisfying. In spite of some brilliant dialogue and philosophical importance, Kushner does not heed the adage, "The mind can absorb what the seat can endure." The major topic at both intermissions on opening night was the interminable length of the show. Dobama?s production is well staged. Nan Wray is nothing short of brilliant as Homebody. Robert Hawkes, is properly emotionally challenged as the very linear husband. Scott Platte is effective in his role as an undefined diplomat. Bernadette Clemens is often too strident as the daughter. Jean Zarzour gives a special dimension to the Muslim doctor?s shunned wife. Director Joel Hammer should have been aware that modern-day audiences, even the intellectual ones who attend Dobama productions, are not going to cotton to a play that clocks in at 3 hours, 45 minutes. If Kushner wouldn?t cut the script, Hammer should have. Sections could have been red penciled without destroying the message, probably enhancing the meaning. HOMEBODY/KABUL plays at Dobama Theatre, 1846 Coventry Road, Cleveland Heights through October 6. For tickets call 216-932-6838. __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?

Message-ID: Hello, Northeast Ohio Theatre and Arts Supporter! I am writing to see if your theatre is able to provide a home for "Hedda" -- Henrik Ibsen's classic drama, "Hedda Gabler", that is. I am looking for an area theatre that has a time slot open for a royalty-free director's special production of "Hedda Gabler" to be rehearsed and staged anytime between the months of January through April of 2003. The show is also available as a summer director's special to be rehearsed and staged July through August of 2003. As you probably already know, "Hedda Gabler" has been revived on Broadway and current interest in the play is strong. Ibsen's amazing play was groundbreaking in the nineteenth-century and remains innovative and controversial in nature even today. The drama is an unforgettable m?lange of intrigue, desperation, female subjugation, class war, and family strife. Hedda herself is an extraordinarily dazzling, complex female character bravely created during a time period when women in plays were expected to be cardboard cutouts, nothing more. "Hedda Gabler" is a brilliant play that has existed in relative obscurity for far too long. Community theatre audiences deserve to see this haunting work. It is time to bring "Hedda Gabler" into the mainstream so that everyone may experience the power of Ibsen's story. Won't your theatre consider hosting this astonishing drama? Financially, "Hedda" is a real bargain -- the play has passed into the public domain and no royalties need to be paid for its use. The cast is small and the set is relatively simple. In fact, "Hedda" is ideal for a black-box theatre or a second stage production. Ticket sales will be high because the play is extremely popular on Broadway right now. Finally, I am dedicated to this play, and as an experienced director I will direct a vibrant production your audience members won't soon forget. Thank you for your time and consideration! Please email me at lakeerieplayers at lycos.com or call me at (440) 346-8559 if you are interested in this project. I will be happy to forward you a copy of my directing resume. I will look forward to hearing that Hedda has found a home soon!

The Story

At the Sydney Cove penal col= ony in 1788, a young lieutenant directs rehearsals of the Restoration comedy= "The Recruiting Officer." With only two copies of the text, a cast of convi= cts, opposition from sadistic officers, and a leading lady about to be hange= d, the production is in trouble from the start...Based on a historical incid= ent and on Thomas Kenneally's novel "The Playmaker."  Timberlake Werten= baker's inspirational play, shows us the redemptive, transcendental power of= theatre with great elegance and passion.  Now recognized as a modern c= lassic, and an A-level set text, it was first performed at the Royal Court T= heatre, London in 1988, winning the Laurence Olivier Award that year.

On the 18th of January, 1788= the first fleet of British prison ships, under the command of Arthur Philli= p, arrive at Botany Bay in New South Wales, Australia and soon settle up the= coast at Port Jackson, the site of current-day Sydney.

Many of the prisoners have been convicted of minor theft (stealing a loaf of= bread was crime enough to earn deportation) and many of their wardens are m= ilitary men who fought and lost the war against the American colonies. There= is a sense that they have all of them been condemned: to the task of foundi= ng a self-sustaining colony in a land where farming is difficult, disease is= rampant, the laborers unwilling and the aboriginal population often hostile= .

The works of Tony Kushner belong firmly in the second category. Sitting in his office in Union Square, a tiny, book-lined room that is taller than it is wide (with a long ladder leading to the topmost shelf), he talked in specific detail about how he nurtures a work through its creative process. After seeing a play performed, he goes on "tinkering and tightening and tweaking and trying to get it right." This was the case with his first great success, "Angels in America," and it is equally true with "Homebody/Kabul," which had its world premiere last December at the New York Theater Workshop. This play about Afghanistan in the late 1990's received admiring reviews, won several prizes and sold out its limited run off Broadway. Since then it has had three different productions: in Providence, R.I.; Berkeley, Calif.; and London. Even though the work has been published, the playwright is still tweaking the text. By the time it is presented next season at the Steppenwolf Theater Company in Chicago, he hopes to get it right, he said. Then, and only then, might it return to New York. "I really thought I would churn it out and it would be perfect," he said. "I always tell myself that with every play, and of course plays are never like that, or least mine aren't. They tend to cling and cling and need more and more attention." The play had been scheduled to open this month at the Mark Taper Forum in Los Angeles, but Mr. Kushner said it was postponed for two reasons. He was still working on revisions, and he wanted to avoid a synchronicity with the anniversary of the terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon. He wrote the play before Sept. 11, and the subsequent changes are artistic rather than political. After the original run in New York there have been two major changes. As the slash in the title indicates, the play splits into two parts. It opens with an Englishwoman's nonstop virtuosic monologue about the history, ethnography and geography of Afghanistan, and then suddenly switches to Kabul, where the woman's husband and daughter have gone to solve the mystery of her disappearance. She may or may not have been murdered in Afghanistan. As performed in New York by Linda Emond, the monologue was the entire first act, followed by two other acts in which the character did not reappear. When that production closed, Mr. Kushner decided to return to his original idea, which was to follow the monologue with a second scene that takes place in Kabul, a scene that had opened the second act. Staging the monologue by itself, he said, was a mistake. The new sequence "started the motor of the play's story and connected the monologue more powerfully to the rest of the play, and it took some of the time pressure off the second and third acts," giving them a better balance. The other major alteration concerns the daughter and was made at the suggestion of Oskar Eustis, who directed the play at Trinity Repertory Theater in Providence. In the New York production the daughter spends the first half of the second act believing that her mother is dead and trying to find her body. Later she has doubts about her mother's fate. In the revised version the daughter begins with those doubts. "She finds her mother's death implausible," Mr. Kushner said. "She doesn't go out on the streets of Kabul to look for her mother's body but to find her mother who she believes is still alive." Responding to criticism that the daughter was too abrasive, Mr. Kushner said he tried to make her more sympathetic but found that the character was resistant. This is, he realized, a dysfunctional family. The father and daughter are "immensely unhappy," and there was nothing he could do about it. Still, the rewriting continues. It was Mr. Kushner's surmise that all playwrights did it. When it was suggested that Samuel Beckett did not rewrite, he said: "Well, Beckett is like Shakespeare. Johnson says about Shakespeare, `He scarce blotted a line.' Those people aren't human. They're from Mars, or something. I blot. My entire life is about blotting." Then he added, "Brecht is arguably as great a genius as Beckett, and he couldn't stop changing and rethinking." As for Shakespeare, he said, "Directors feel complete freedom to cut and chop and transpose, so in a sense the human race is rewriting him all the time." In Mr. Kushner's case there is something daunting about his process, especially with his two major works. Even as he is rewriting the second half of "Homebody/Kabul," he is also contemplating revisions of "Perestroika," the second half of "Angels in America," which Mike Nichols is directing as a six-hour HBO television mini-series. Reading a biography of Goethe Mr. Kushner discovered that Goethe believed that some of his plays were "incommensurable," that they were inevitably disproportionate, with the two parts of "Faust" being the classic example, the first part complete, the second part less satisfying. "I think all two-part plays follow the `Faust' model," Mr. Kushner said, naming "Peer Gynt," "Dance of Death" and "Angels in America." With "Homebody/Kabul" he hopes to avoid that pitfall. He is aware of the danger in endless rewriting, he said, and pointed to Walt Whitman as someone who damaged his own work: "Every time he put out `Leaves of Grass,' he changed it. `I celebrate myself' became `I celebrate myself, and sing myself.' It got weaker and weaker the more he potchked around with it," he said, summoning up a decidedly un-Whitmanesque image. By his own admission, Mr. Kushner is an obsessive potchkier, someone who makes a fuss, and he can even question the act of inspiration: "A gush of ideas or words absolutely has to be reexamined and reread and worked on. Is it a breaking through of a muse's song, or is it just noise that you generate to distract your terror?" In his case, he fears he is going to fail. He said he began every play with that trepidation. Having said all that, he acknowledged the "Homebody" monologue as a burst of intuition. The British actress Kika Markham had asked him to write a monologue for her. In 1997 he began it in his office and wrote most of it on a night flight to London. Arriving there he checked into a hotel, finished writing the piece and then slept the rest of the day. The next morning he met Ms. Markham and the director Annie Castledine, and the actress read the monologue aloud. "Kika was horrified," he remembered. "She didn't know what the hell she was saying, and I was too tired to know. Annie loved it." The monologue was rushed into performance, running for three weeks in London. "Various friends who saw it said this is a great beginning, but there's so much more to the situation, and the character cannot talk about it." At a much more deliberate pace he wrote "Kabul" to follow "Homebody," and James C. Niola presented the entire work at the New York Theater Workshop in a production starring Ms. Emond. (Ms. Markham later appeared in the full play in London.) When "Homebody/Kabul" was in rehearsal in New York, Mr. Kushner considered bringing the Homebody back onstage in a dream sequence in Kabul. After Ms. Emond read it aloud with the other actors, she told the author she did not think the scene should be in the play. He agreed. Asked if he knew if the character lives or dies, he said: "I have different feelings on different days. I write in longhand, and then I type everything into my computer. In the longhand draft she is dead, and in the version that got into the computer she seems to be not dead. I honestly don't know." For the audience the ending remains ambiguous. On the cover of the published play there is a painting by Mr. Kushner's sister, Lesley, of a spectral form representing the head and shoulders of a woman. In his acknowledgments to the play he says that only he and his sister and other family members "know best and miss most the spirit that haunts the painting and the play." That spirit is Mr. Kushner's mother, a classical musician who died in 1990. "The Homebody is in some ways a portrait of my mother," he said. "There's a particular quality of pride, a virtuosic display and at the same time mortification that seems always to follow on the heels of it. There's a kind of narcissistic wrestling going on in the soul of this woman that I think had a lot to do with my mother, a very loving person but mercurial. She's a very difficult person to talk about, which is also what the daughter finds in the play." His mother saw "Millennium Approaches," Part 1 of "Angels in America," in its first production in Los Angeles in 1990, and, he said, "it scared her," partly because of the closeness to her and her son. In the play the character Joe Pitt telephones his mother and tells her he is gay, a scene from Mr. Kushner's own life. Mr. Kushner's father, also a classical musician, found the work upsetting but immediately told his son that it was a wonderful play. In 1993 "Millennium Approaches" won the Pulitzer Prize. Mr. Kushner is in the midst of a highly creative phase. In addition to his work with Mr. Nichols on the film of "Angels in America" (starring Al Pacino, Meryl Streep and Emma Thompson, with Michael Gambon and Simon Callow as ghosts), he is writing the book and lyrics for a musical, "Caroline or Change," composed by Jeanine Tesori. The musical takes place in Lake Charles, La., where Mr. Kushner grew up. "Even though it's not actually autobiographical, it's the closest to autobiography of anything I've done." He is also writing a film about an episode in the life of Eugene O'Neill, and has been working for many years on "Henry Box Brown," about slavery. The shelves in his office are lined with books on the subject. In common with his other plays, this one will be deeply imbedded in research. While carefully apportioning his time among all these projects, he remains focused on the evolution of "Homebody/Kabul." Suddenly he said: "I have a very radical idea for a rewrite that will make it a much shorter play. I'll take out the meat cleaver and clear away the fat. My suspicion is that it will be a diminishment, but I think it's worth trying." Then there is his long-planned journey to Afghanistan. Nancy Hatch Dupree, who wrote the guidebook that is one of the sources of "Homebody/Kabul," has encouraged him to do a theater workshop with playwrights in Kabul. "I'd love to take her up on it," he said. "But it's a little too volatile there." This would be his first trip to Afghanistan. As always, Mr. Kushner remains an intrepid traveler in his imagination.

Wordcatching I ( Formerly the Power of Writing Workshop)

Be a Wordcatcher! This 4-week class explores personal writing as a tool for creative expression, healing, memoir/life writing, and goal setting. Journalers and writers at all levels will learn over a dozen writing techniques including "Wishwriting," take a life goals inventory and find out exactly what their personal "writer's block" is. Participants will also be creating a list of prompts to inspire new topics and themes in their writing. Whether you have been a life-long journaler, or are looking to get started, this class will give you more ideas than you thought possible!

Class is held on Wednesdays, 7-9 p.m.

Beginning Sept. 18- Oct. 9th.

Cost for 4-week class is $75.

CALL (216) 529-4082 by Sunday, Sept. 14, to register by final deadline.

Please....For the love of god stop calling us" Or How about the News Harold "No we are not only not interested but we're considering folding the paper just to insure that you would finally stop calling us" How about what the Christian Science Monitor had to say? "Your show made us seriously consider atheism" Or even my mom "I read your scripts and you are no longer my son" See you at the show!!!!!!!!!!! Its gonna be a blast!!!!

[NEohioPAL]PARADE INFORMATIVE AT CASSIDY/KABUL A LONG SIT AT DOBAMA Message-ID: <20020915215154.17610.qmail@web12005.mail.yahoo.com> PARADE ENLIGHTENS AT CASSIDY/DOBAMA?S HOMEBODY/KABUL A LONG SIT --THE TIMES NEWSPAPERS-- Roy Berko (Member, American Theatre Critics Association) Lorain County Times--Westlaker Times--Lakewood News Times--Olmsted-Fairview Times PARADE ENLIGHTENS AT CASSIDY Cassidy Theatre is noted as a community theatre which tends to play it safe. It produces the likes of Neil Simon comedies and pleasant Broadway hit musicals. That?s what its generally conservative audience wants, and the audience is composed of local taxpayers who financially support the theatre. But every once in a while the theatre goes out on a wing. They are doing that now with the musical PARADE. They are, in fact, one of the first nonprofessional theatres in the country to tackle this controversial piece. The show has two major blocks to success. The production requires a huge cast, in Cassidy?s case, over 35 bodies. The players must be talented enough to both act and sing their way through a script that requires high drama and good voices. Secondly, the story is very serious, not normally the basis for audience enjoyment. In 1913, Leo Frank, a Brooklyn-born Jew living in Georgia, was put on trial for the murder of 13-year-old Mary Phagan, a factory worker under his employ. Though innocent, he is guilty in the eyes of everyone around him who. They don?t like that he is Jewish, a northerner, and rich. His only defenders are a governor with a conscience, and his assimilated Southern wife who finds the strength and love to become his champion. PARADE tells the story pretty accurately, even including actual words spoken by the real-life characters. Its goal is to educate people about the tragedy of prejudice. It is successful in doing this. As one critic said, "I left the theatre shaking, horrified at what I'd just seen, moved to tears. Real life dramas are hard enough, but stories this tragic are just shattering." The show won two Tony Awards. Cassidy is fortunate that its former artistic director David Jecman has returned to take on the production. Jecman has a clear sense of purpose for the staging. He also knows the limits of his amateur cast and has not sugar-coated the material. Don Irven portrays Leo Frank with well-measured compassion. Maggie Wirfel gives a polished performance as Frank?s wife. Jecman, in contrast to most directors, has paid much attention to the supporting players and the effort shows. The highlight of the show is the well-honed trial segment. Is the production perfect? No, the choreography is weak, some of the acting is very amateurish, several performers over act, and the required southern drawls come and go. But this is a community theatre and an amateur production that has undertaken the staging of a tough show. In spite of Jecman and the cast?s work, and the high quality of the script, some audience members vocally indicated they didn?t "enjoy" the production. This, of course, was not the university reaction, it is ironic that in the area of Cuyahoga county which has had much publicity regarding its lack of openness to minorities, some people would reject their being educated to the horrors of prejudice. People like the woman who vocally complained as she marched down the aisle at intermission, "I didn?t come to the theatre to see stuff like this," ought to realize that not all life?s experiences are meant to be "enjoyed!" This is a show worth seeing! PARADE will be performed at the Cassidy Theatre, 6200 Pearl Road, Parma Heights through September 29. Tickets may be obtained by calling 440-842-4600. DOBAMA?S HOMEBODY/KABUL IS A LONG SIT Tony Kushner is noted as being a political playwright. He has charted German social democratic impotence in A BRIGHT ROOM CALLED DAY. In SLAVS, he probes the death of the Soviet Union. In his most acclaimed work, the two-part, nine-hour epic ANGELS IN AMERICA, he examines personal suffering and betrayal in the worlds of disease, homophobia, and reactionary politics. In all of his plays he uses lots and lots and lots of words. At the beginning of PERESTROIKA (part two of ANGELS IN AMERICA) a character asks, "The great question before us is: will the past release us?" He continues to probe that question in his rambling new play HOMEBODY/KABUL, which is getting its midwestern debut at Dobama Theatre. Ironically, Kushner wrote the play before 9/11/2001. This makes the work, which is set in Afghanistan, rather remarkable and a little eerie. He talks about places and topics that most Americans weren?t even aware of before that fateful date. Our journey starts with an hour-long monologue in which Homebody, a middle-aged British matron, offers glimpses of the pain of a loveless marriage as she conjures a stream-of-consciousness vision of an ancient land and culture, a place of "strangeness and beauty." A place from which history dawns and is the burial sight of Cain, the killing brother of Bibical history. Homebody leaves home to visit Afghanistan and disappears. What happened to her is the mystery that her husband, an uncommunicative communications expert, and her daughter, a neurotic, alienated young woman, strive to discover during the next two acts. Was she killed by a mob offended by her apparent flouting of Muslim female propriety? Is she still alive? Has she taken the veil and married a Muslim doctor? As is his habit, Kushner layers his narrative with fascinating historical facts and observations, in this case, Western and Afghan culture. Some scenes are powerful such as when a rejected Afghan wife rages at the West's complicity in bringing the Taliban to power. Some are seemingly meaningless bits of information. In reality, the play could have ended with the conclusion of the first act and been satisfying. In spite of some brilliant dialogue and philosophical importance, Kushner does not heed the adage, "The mind can absorb what the seat can endure." The major topic at both intermissions on opening night was the interminable length of the show. Dobama?s production is well staged. Nan Wray is nothing short of brilliant as Homebody. Robert Hawkes, is properly emotionally challenged as the very linear husband. Scott Platte is effective in his role as an undefined diplomat. Bernadette Clemens is often too strident as the daughter. Jean Zarzour gives a special dimension to the Muslim doctor?s shunned wife. Director Joel Hammer should have been aware that modern-day audiences, even the intellectual ones who attend Dobama productions, are not going to cotton to a play that clocks in at 3 hours, 45 minutes. If Kushner wouldn?t cut the script, Hammer should have. Sections could have been red penciled without destroying the message, probably enhancing the meaning. HOMEBODY/KABUL plays at Dobama Theatre, 1846 Coventry Road, Cleveland Heights through October 6. For tickets call 216-932-6838. __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?

In 1993, Kushner won the Pulitzer Prize for Drama for ANGELS IN AMERICA: MILLENIUM APPROACHES, which Dobama produced in 1998, and his most recent play (completed before September 11) takes the audience into the culture of Afghanistan to ask the questions we're all asking ourselves ??? how did we get to where we are now and where do we go from here? Here's what media have said about Kushner???s socially and politically charged journey into the culture of Afghanistan: "An eerily prescient play???blazes with an intensity that defines Kushner???s best work." AP "Brilliant" American Theatre "???the most remarkable play in a decade???without a doubt the most important of our time." New York Observer "???a yearning to go beyond domestic stories and into the great world of political struggle. Brilliant. It keeps us thinking."

Message-ID: Hello, Northeast Ohio Theatre and Arts Supporter! I am writing to see if your theatre is able to provide a home for "Hedda" -- Henrik Ibsen's classic drama, "Hedda Gabler", that is. I am looking for an area theatre that has a time slot open for a royalty-free director's special production of "Hedda Gabler" to be rehearsed and staged anytime between the months of January through April of 2003. The show is also available as a summer director's special to be rehearsed and staged July through August of 2003. As you probably already know, "Hedda Gabler" has been revived on Broadway and current interest in the play is strong. Ibsen's amazing play was groundbreaking in the nineteenth-century and remains innovative and controversial in nature even today. The drama is an unforgettable m?lange of intrigue, desperation, female subjugation, class war, and family strife. Hedda herself is an extraordinarily dazzling, complex female character bravely created during a time period when women in plays were expected to be cardboard cutouts, nothing more. "Hedda Gabler" is a brilliant play that has existed in relative obscurity for far too long. Community theatre audiences deserve to see this haunting work. It is time to bring "Hedda Gabler" into the mainstream so that everyone may experience the power of Ibsen's story. Won't your theatre consider hosting this astonishing drama? Financially, "Hedda" is a real bargain -- the play has passed into the public domain and no royalties need to be paid for its use. The cast is small and the set is relatively simple. In fact, "Hedda" is ideal for a black-box theatre or a second stage production. Ticket sales will be high because the play is extremely popular on Broadway right now. Finally, I am dedicated to this play, and as an experienced director I will direct a vibrant production your audience members won't soon forget. Thank you for your time and consideration! Please email me at lakeerieplayers at lycos.com or call me at (440) 346-8559 if you are interested in this project. I will be happy to forward you a copy of my directing resume. I will look forward to hearing that Hedda has found a home soon!

The works of Tony Kushner belong firmly in the second category. Sitting in his office in Union Square, a tiny, book-lined room that is taller than it is wide (with a long ladder leading to the topmost shelf), he talked in specific detail about how he nurtures a work through its creative process. After seeing a play performed, he goes on "tinkering and tightening and tweaking and trying to get it right." This was the case with his first great success, "Angels in America," and it is equally true with "Homebody/Kabul," which had its world premiere last December at the New York Theater Workshop. This play about Afghanistan in the late 1990's received admiring reviews, won several prizes and sold out its limited run off Broadway. Since then it has had three different productions: in Providence, R.I.; Berkeley, Calif.; and London. Even though the work has been published, the playwright is still tweaking the text. By the time it is presented next season at the Steppenwolf Theater Company in Chicago, he hopes to get it right, he said. Then, and only then, might it return to New York. "I really thought I would churn it out and it would be perfect," he said. "I always tell myself that with every play, and of course plays are never like that, or least mine aren't. They tend to cling and cling and need more and more attention." The play had been scheduled to open this month at the Mark Taper Forum in Los Angeles, but Mr. Kushner said it was postponed for two reasons. He was still working on revisions, and he wanted to avoid a synchronicity with the anniversary of the terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon. He wrote the play before Sept. 11, and the subsequent changes are artistic rather than political. After the original run in New York there have been two major changes. As the slash in the title indicates, the play splits into two parts. It opens with an Englishwoman's nonstop virtuosic monologue about the history, ethnography and geography of Afghanistan, and then suddenly switches to Kabul, where the woman's husband and daughter have gone to solve the mystery of her disappearance. She may or may not have been murdered in Afghanistan. As performed in New York by Linda Emond, the monologue was the entire first act, followed by two other acts in which the character did not reappear. When that production closed, Mr. Kushner decided to return to his original idea, which was to follow the monologue with a second scene that takes place in Kabul, a scene that had opened the second act. Staging the monologue by itself, he said, was a mistake. The new sequence "started the motor of the play's story and connected the monologue more powerfully to the rest of the play, and it took some of the time pressure off the second and third acts," giving them a better balance. The other major alteration concerns the daughter and was made at the suggestion of Oskar Eustis, who directed the play at Trinity Repertory Theater in Providence. In the New York production the daughter spends the first half of the second act believing that her mother is dead and trying to find her body. Later she has doubts about her mother's fate. In the revised version the daughter begins with those doubts. "She finds her mother's death implausible," Mr. Kushner said. "She doesn't go out on the streets of Kabul to look for her mother's body but to find her mother who she believes is still alive." Responding to criticism that the daughter was too abrasive, Mr. Kushner said he tried to make her more sympathetic but found that the character was resistant. This is, he realized, a dysfunctional family. The father and daughter are "immensely unhappy," and there was nothing he could do about it. Still, the rewriting continues. It was Mr. Kushner's surmise that all playwrights did it. When it was suggested that Samuel Beckett did not rewrite, he said: "Well, Beckett is like Shakespeare. Johnson says about Shakespeare, `He scarce blotted a line.' Those people aren't human. They're from Mars, or something. I blot. My entire life is about blotting." Then he added, "Brecht is arguably as great a genius as Beckett, and he couldn't stop changing and rethinking." As for Shakespeare, he said, "Directors feel complete freedom to cut and chop and transpose, so in a sense the human race is rewriting him all the time." In Mr. Kushner's case there is something daunting about his process, especially with his two major works. Even as he is rewriting the second half of "Homebody/Kabul," he is also contemplating revisions of "Perestroika," the second half of "Angels in America," which Mike Nichols is directing as a six-hour HBO television mini-series. Reading a biography of Goethe Mr. Kushner discovered that Goethe believed that some of his plays were "incommensurable," that they were inevitably disproportionate, with the two parts of "Faust" being the classic example, the first part complete, the second part less satisfying. "I think all two-part plays follow the `Faust' model," Mr. Kushner said, naming "Peer Gynt," "Dance of Death" and "Angels in America." With "Homebody/Kabul" he hopes to avoid that pitfall. He is aware of the danger in endless rewriting, he said, and pointed to Walt Whitman as someone who damaged his own work: "Every time he put out `Leaves of Grass,' he changed it. `I celebrate myself' became `I celebrate myself, and sing myself.' It got weaker and weaker the more he potchked around with it," he said, summoning up a decidedly un-Whitmanesque image. By his own admission, Mr. Kushner is an obsessive potchkier, someone who makes a fuss, and he can even question the act of inspiration: "A gush of ideas or words absolutely has to be reexamined and reread and worked on. Is it a breaking through of a muse's song, or is it just noise that you generate to distract your terror?" In his case, he fears he is going to fail. He said he began every play with that trepidation. Having said all that, he acknowledged the "Homebody" monologue as a burst of intuition. The British actress Kika Markham had asked him to write a monologue for her. In 1997 he began it in his office and wrote most of it on a night flight to London. Arriving there he checked into a hotel, finished writing the piece and then slept the rest of the day. The next morning he met Ms. Markham and the director Annie Castledine, and the actress read the monologue aloud. "Kika was horrified," he remembered. "She didn't know what the hell she was saying, and I was too tired to know. Annie loved it." The monologue was rushed into performance, running for three weeks in London. "Various friends who saw it said this is a great beginning, but there's so much more to the situation, and the character cannot talk about it." At a much more deliberate pace he wrote "Kabul" to follow "Homebody," and James C. Niola presented the entire work at the New York Theater Workshop in a production starring Ms. Emond. (Ms. Markham later appeared in the full play in London.) When "Homebody/Kabul" was in rehearsal in New York, Mr. Kushner considered bringing the Homebody back onstage in a dream sequence in Kabul. After Ms. Emond read it aloud with the other actors, she told the author she did not think the scene should be in the play. He agreed. Asked if he knew if the character lives or dies, he said: "I have different feelings on different days. I write in longhand, and then I type everything into my computer. In the longhand draft she is dead, and in the version that got into the computer she seems to be not dead. I honestly don't know." For the audience the ending remains ambiguous. On the cover of the published play there is a painting by Mr. Kushner's sister, Lesley, of a spectral form representing the head and shoulders of a woman. In his acknowledgments to the play he says that only he and his sister and other family members "know best and miss most the spirit that haunts the painting and the play." That spirit is Mr. Kushner's mother, a classical musician who died in 1990. "The Homebody is in some ways a portrait of my mother," he said. "There's a particular quality of pride, a virtuosic display and at the same time mortification that seems always to follow on the heels of it. There's a kind of narcissistic wrestling going on in the soul of this woman that I think had a lot to do with my mother, a very loving person but mercurial. She's a very difficult person to talk about, which is also what the daughter finds in the play." His mother saw "Millennium Approaches," Part 1 of "Angels in America," in its first production in Los Angeles in 1990, and, he said, "it scared her," partly because of the closeness to her and her son. In the play the character Joe Pitt telephones his mother and tells her he is gay, a scene from Mr. Kushner's own life. Mr. Kushner's father, also a classical musician, found the work upsetting but immediately told his son that it was a wonderful play. In 1993 "Millennium Approaches" won the Pulitzer Prize. Mr. Kushner is in the midst of a highly creative phase. In addition to his work with Mr. Nichols on the film of "Angels in America" (starring Al Pacino, Meryl Streep and Emma Thompson, with Michael Gambon and Simon Callow as ghosts), he is writing the book and lyrics for a musical, "Caroline or Change," composed by Jeanine Tesori. The musical takes place in Lake Charles, La., where Mr. Kushner grew up. "Even though it's not actually autobiographical, it's the closest to autobiography of anything I've done." He is also writing a film about an episode in the life of Eugene O'Neill, and has been working for many years on "Henry Box Brown," about slavery. The shelves in his office are lined with books on the subject. In common with his other plays, this one will be deeply imbedded in research. While carefully apportioning his time among all these projects, he remains focused on the evolution of "Homebody/Kabul." Suddenly he said: "I have a very radical idea for a rewrite that will make it a much shorter play. I'll take out the meat cleaver and clear away the fat. My suspicion is that it will be a diminishment, but I think it's worth trying." Then there is his long-planned journey to Afghanistan. Nancy Hatch Dupree, who wrote the guidebook that is one of the sources of "Homebody/Kabul," has encouraged him to do a theater workshop with playwrights in Kabul. "I'd love to take her up on it," he said. "But it's a little too volatile there." This would be his first trip to Afghanistan. As always, Mr. Kushner remains an intrepid traveler in his imagination.

I:(Giggles evilly) You know, I knew there was someone to blame for my hatred of musicals (Cept for Cop Rock). For the longest time I thought it was Andrew Lloyd Webber. M: Not surprising. Is it because he's ripped off--Excuse me--sampled everyone from Puccini to the Mamas and the Papas? I: Nah, I just think he looks creepy. M: Oh. Good enough. I: But since we started doin' this whole the-ater thing--I gotta admit--I've seen some good stuff: Zombie Prom, Urinetown, Eating Raoul. I didn't even mind Rocky Horror. Reminded me a your family. M: You know what reminds me of your family? I: I don't care. So for awhile there everthing was show tunes and Skittles but now NOW!! my hatred of musicals knows no bounds! M: Hey! I: Now I hate musicals more than I hate political groups, tofu, and Temptation Island combined. M: I want to get my insult in! I: And who's to blame for this newfound disgust? The French! First, they import an 18,000 page overly written insomnia cure filled with a bunch of unlikeable obsessive compulsives who whine about how bad their lives are until they all die. THEN, they inflict an 18,000 hour adaption with the same unlikeable obsessive compulsives who now SING about how bad their lives are until they all die. M: The students do more than just whine. They do actually try to change their lives. I: And they all die. M: Well, yes. I: Everyone dies, except for the two lovers who are about as interestin' as a pair of plain white socks. Everbody in this thing is a one note ride. Jean Valjean is oh so good and oh so nice and oh so strong and oh so YECCCH! Inspector Javert is way to obsessed with law and order (And Law and Order-SVU). Heehee. M: I'm going to be hitting you very hard very soon. I: And when he FINALLY realizes that he might be just a tad overzealous in his duties does he think "Wow. In tryin' to do good I've actually been doin' evil, I need to reflect upon my life and change it for the better?" No, he JUMPS OFF A BRIDGE!!!! M: Well, you did say the characters were one note. I: And, of course, since this is a MUSICAL we have to sit through this beautiful, heartfelt, admittedly nice number. About one verse in, though, I wanted to stand up and scream "Shut up and jump, ya freakin coward!" M: I would have paid good money to see that. I: Shoulda said sumthin. Then there are the tavern owners, greedy, unscrupulous, downright evil rat bastards who, of course, have the most fun number in the show. Come to think about it, they don't die either. They should. All the students are brave, headstrong, and wearin' red shirts. M: Think for a moment. It'll come. I: Our dashing hero is just there and all we know about his one true love is that her mom was a hooker and she likes dull men. There's really only one multi layered character in the show. M: Eponine? I: You got it, limey. In one song--Best song in the show, far as I'm concerned--you learn this girl's entire psychological make up (Screwy as it may be). You really hope she has some happiness in her life . . . until she gets a bullet in the boobs. And don't even get me started on Gavroche! M: Okay, here we are in complete agreement! He is just annoying. I: Not as irritatin' as his song. "Little People." YECCCH!! I didn't mind when he died. Oh! Oh! Speaking of irritatin' songs. (Singing) "There is a castle on a cloud. There is a rifle in my hand." Mike laughs. I: Now, I admit, three of the songs are purty damn good. (Pause) So are you gonna set up the next one or not? M:(Sighing) Fine. What did you think of the ending? I: No, I didn't hear the people sing . . . cause THEY WERE ALL DEAD!! M: Come on, Ike. They're just children. I: Have I mentioned that at all, no! But since you brought it up-- M: Oh, God. I: I'm sorry but the whole "French revolution fought by junior high students" was just eerie to me. I know everbody else, including you, has been bouncin' off the walls for this thing. "Aww, look at all the cute kids doing this big famous musical!" Look at all the cute kids doing a show which basically says in order to succeed in life you must either be borin' or evil and that if you try to change your life you'll get beaten, have your head shaved, and then die! But the kids were good. M: That they were, yes. (Pause) A lump of bull excrement. I: What? M: Think for a moment. It'll come. SPECIAL NEWS: Mike and Ike Live Appearance!!! September 26th at Midnight.

[NEohioPAL]PARADE INFORMATIVE AT CASSIDY/KABUL A LONG SIT AT DOBAMA Message-ID: <20020915215154.17610.qmail@web12005.mail.yahoo.com> PARADE ENLIGHTENS AT CASSIDY/DOBAMA?S HOMEBODY/KABUL A LONG SIT --THE TIMES NEWSPAPERS-- Roy Berko (Member, American Theatre Critics Association) Lorain County Times--Westlaker Times--Lakewood News Times--Olmsted-Fairview Times PARADE ENLIGHTENS AT CASSIDY Cassidy Theatre is noted as a community theatre which tends to play it safe. It produces the likes of Neil Simon comedies and pleasant Broadway hit musicals. That?s what its generally conservative audience wants, and the audience is composed of local taxpayers who financially support the theatre. But every once in a while the theatre goes out on a wing. They are doing that now with the musical PARADE. They are, in fact, one of the first nonprofessional theatres in the country to tackle this controversial piece. The show has two major blocks to success. The production requires a huge cast, in Cassidy?s case, over 35 bodies. The players must be talented enough to both act and sing their way through a script that requires high drama and good voices. Secondly, the story is very serious, not normally the basis for audience enjoyment. In 1913, Leo Frank, a Brooklyn-born Jew living in Georgia, was put on trial for the murder of 13-year-old Mary Phagan, a factory worker under his employ. Though innocent, he is guilty in the eyes of everyone around him who. They don?t like that he is Jewish, a northerner, and rich. His only defenders are a governor with a conscience, and his assimilated Southern wife who finds the strength and love to become his champion. PARADE tells the story pretty accurately, even including actual words spoken by the real-life characters. Its goal is to educate people about the tragedy of prejudice. It is successful in doing this. As one critic said, "I left the theatre shaking, horrified at what I'd just seen, moved to tears. Real life dramas are hard enough, but stories this tragic are just shattering." The show won two Tony Awards. Cassidy is fortunate that its former artistic director David Jecman has returned to take on the production. Jecman has a clear sense of purpose for the staging. He also knows the limits of his amateur cast and has not sugar-coated the material. Don Irven portrays Leo Frank with well-measured compassion. Maggie Wirfel gives a polished performance as Frank?s wife. Jecman, in contrast to most directors, has paid much attention to the supporting players and the effort shows. The highlight of the show is the well-honed trial segment. Is the production perfect? No, the choreography is weak, some of the acting is very amateurish, several performers over act, and the required southern drawls come and go. But this is a community theatre and an amateur production that has undertaken the staging of a tough show. In spite of Jecman and the cast?s work, and the high quality of the script, some audience members vocally indicated they didn?t "enjoy" the production. This, of course, was not the university reaction, it is ironic that in the area of Cuyahoga county which has had much publicity regarding its lack of openness to minorities, some people would reject their being educated to the horrors of prejudice. People like the woman who vocally complained as she marched down the aisle at intermission, "I didn?t come to the theatre to see stuff like this," ought to realize that not all life?s experiences are meant to be "enjoyed!" This is a show worth seeing! PARADE will be performed at the Cassidy Theatre, 6200 Pearl Road, Parma Heights through September 29. Tickets may be obtained by calling 440-842-4600. DOBAMA?S HOMEBODY/KABUL IS A LONG SIT Tony Kushner is noted as being a political playwright. He has charted German social democratic impotence in A BRIGHT ROOM CALLED DAY. In SLAVS, he probes the death of the Soviet Union. In his most acclaimed work, the two-part, nine-hour epic ANGELS IN AMERICA, he examines personal suffering and betrayal in the worlds of disease, homophobia, and reactionary politics. In all of his plays he uses lots and lots and lots of words. At the beginning of PERESTROIKA (part two of ANGELS IN AMERICA) a character asks, "The great question before us is: will the past release us?" He continues to probe that question in his rambling new play HOMEBODY/KABUL, which is getting its midwestern debut at Dobama Theatre. Ironically, Kushner wrote the play before 9/11/2001. This makes the work, which is set in Afghanistan, rather remarkable and a little eerie. He talks about places and topics that most Americans weren?t even aware of before that fateful date. Our journey starts with an hour-long monologue in which Homebody, a middle-aged British matron, offers glimpses of the pain of a loveless marriage as she conjures a stream-of-consciousness vision of an ancient land and culture, a place of "strangeness and beauty." A place from which history dawns and is the burial sight of Cain, the killing brother of Bibical history. Homebody leaves home to visit Afghanistan and disappears. What happened to her is the mystery that her husband, an uncommunicative communications expert, and her daughter, a neurotic, alienated young woman, strive to discover during the next two acts. Was she killed by a mob offended by her apparent flouting of Muslim female propriety? Is she still alive? Has she taken the veil and married a Muslim doctor? As is his habit, Kushner layers his narrative with fascinating historical facts and observations, in this case, Western and Afghan culture. Some scenes are powerful such as when a rejected Afghan wife rages at the West's complicity in bringing the Taliban to power. Some are seemingly meaningless bits of information. In reality, the play could have ended with the conclusion of the first act and been satisfying. In spite of some brilliant dialogue and philosophical importance, Kushner does not heed the adage, "The mind can absorb what the seat can endure." The major topic at both intermissions on opening night was the interminable length of the show. Dobama?s production is well staged. Nan Wray is nothing short of brilliant as Homebody. Robert Hawkes, is properly emotionally challenged as the very linear husband. Scott Platte is effective in his role as an undefined diplomat. Bernadette Clemens is often too strident as the daughter. Jean Zarzour gives a special dimension to the Muslim doctor?s shunned wife. Director Joel Hammer should have been aware that modern-day audiences, even the intellectual ones who attend Dobama productions, are not going to cotton to a play that clocks in at 3 hours, 45 minutes. If Kushner wouldn?t cut the script, Hammer should have. Sections could have been red penciled without destroying the message, probably enhancing the meaning. HOMEBODY/KABUL plays at Dobama Theatre, 1846 Coventry Road, Cleveland Heights through October 6. For tickets call 216-932-6838. __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?

DOBAMA presents the MIDWEST premiere of HOMEBODY/KABUL By Tony Kushner Directed by Joel Hammer Performances September 13-October 6 THURS/FRI/SAT at 7:30 PM SUN 9/15 at 7 PM, 9/22, 9/29, 10/6 at 2 PM "We are extremely privileged to be only the fourth theater in the nation and the first in the Midwest to present HOMEBODY, a play that couldn???t be more 'to the moment' in this current climate of distrust and fear," says Joyce Casey, Dobama???s Artistic Director. In 1993, Kushner won the Pulitzer Prize for Drama for ANGELS IN AMERICA: MILLENIUM APPROACHES, which Dobama produced in 1998, and his most recent play (completed before September 11) takes the audience into the culture of Afghanistan to ask the questions we're all asking ourselves ??? how did we get to where we are now and where do we go from here? Here's what media have said about Kushner???s socially and politically charged journey into the culture of Afghanistan: "An eerily prescient play???blazes with an intensity that defines Kushner???s best work." AP "Brilliant" American Theatre "???the most remarkable play in a decade???without a doubt the most important of our time." New York Observer "???a yearning to go beyond domestic stories and into the great world of political struggle. Brilliant. It keeps us thinking."

This individual must possess strong keyboard (both organ and piano) skills, ability in choral directing, and some background in church music and worship liturgy. Personal qualities must include: the ability to work comfortably and productively with all kinds of people; creativity and excitement about trying new ideas; strong commitment to the music program as part of the total ministry of the church; flexibility and spontaneity; and a keen sense of humor. The time commitment for this position is: Sunday mornings; 9:30 for choral warm up, 10:30 for Worship Service, and one 1&1/2 hour midweek choir rehearsal (choir breaks in the summer), with some special services on church holidays. We at South Haven are a congregation ALIVE WITH JOY! Our 100+ membership is diverse in age, race, personal situation, and church background... and we ALL love the music program!

Message-ID: Hello, Northeast Ohio Theatre and Arts Supporter! I am writing to see if your theatre is able to provide a home for "Hedda" -- Henrik Ibsen's classic drama, "Hedda Gabler", that is. I am looking for an area theatre that has a time slot open for a royalty-free director's special production of "Hedda Gabler" to be rehearsed and staged anytime between the months of January through April of 2003. The show is also available as a summer director's special to be rehearsed and staged July through August of 2003. As you probably already know, "Hedda Gabler" has been revived on Broadway and current interest in the play is strong. Ibsen's amazing play was groundbreaking in the nineteenth-century and remains innovative and controversial in nature even today. The drama is an unforgettable m?lange of intrigue, desperation, female subjugation, class war, and family strife. Hedda herself is an extraordinarily dazzling, complex female character bravely created during a time period when women in plays were expected to be cardboard cutouts, nothing more. "Hedda Gabler" is a brilliant play that has existed in relative obscurity for far too long. Community theatre audiences deserve to see this haunting work. It is time to bring "Hedda Gabler" into the mainstream so that everyone may experience the power of Ibsen's story. Won't your theatre consider hosting this astonishing drama? Financially, "Hedda" is a real bargain -- the play has passed into the public domain and no royalties need to be paid for its use. The cast is small and the set is relatively simple. In fact, "Hedda" is ideal for a black-box theatre or a second stage production. Ticket sales will be high because the play is extremely popular on Broadway right now. Finally, I am dedicated to this play, and as an experienced director I will direct a vibrant production your audience members won't soon forget. Thank you for your time and consideration! Please email me at lakeerieplayers at lycos.com or call me at (440) 346-8559 if you are interested in this project. I will be happy to forward you a copy of my directing resume. I will look forward to hearing that Hedda has found a home soon! Sincerely, Marifrances Conrad, Director ___________________________________________________ Communicate with others using Lycos Mail for FREE! http://mail.lycos.com From Marianne.Paul at huntington.com Tue Sep 10 11:06:01 2002 From: Marianne.Paul at huntington.com (Marianne.Paul at huntington.com) Date: Tue Sep 10 11:06:01 2002 Subject: [NEohioPAL]Aurora Community Theatre needs actress in 50's!!

The works of Tony Kushner belong firmly in the second category. Sitting in his office in Union Square, a tiny, book-lined room that is taller than it is wide (with a long ladder leading to the topmost shelf), he talked in specific detail about how he nurtures a work through its creative process. After seeing a play performed, he goes on "tinkering and tightening and tweaking and trying to get it right." This was the case with his first great success, "Angels in America," and it is equally true with "Homebody/Kabul," which had its world premiere last December at the New York Theater Workshop. This play about Afghanistan in the late 1990's received admiring reviews, won several prizes and sold out its limited run off Broadway. Since then it has had three different productions: in Providence, R.I.; Berkeley, Calif.; and London. Even though the work has been published, the playwright is still tweaking the text. By the time it is presented next season at the Steppenwolf Theater Company in Chicago, he hopes to get it right, he said. Then, and only then, might it return to New York. "I really thought I would churn it out and it would be perfect," he said. "I always tell myself that with every play, and of course plays are never like that, or least mine aren't. They tend to cling and cling and need more and more attention." The play had been scheduled to open this month at the Mark Taper Forum in Los Angeles, but Mr. Kushner said it was postponed for two reasons. He was still working on revisions, and he wanted to avoid a synchronicity with the anniversary of the terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon. He wrote the play before Sept. 11, and the subsequent changes are artistic rather than political. After the original run in New York there have been two major changes. As the slash in the title indicates, the play splits into two parts. It opens with an Englishwoman's nonstop virtuosic monologue about the history, ethnography and geography of Afghanistan, and then suddenly switches to Kabul, where the woman's husband and daughter have gone to solve the mystery of her disappearance. She may or may not have been murdered in Afghanistan. As performed in New York by Linda Emond, the monologue was the entire first act, followed by two other acts in which the character did not reappear. When that production closed, Mr. Kushner decided to return to his original idea, which was to follow the monologue with a second scene that takes place in Kabul, a scene that had opened the second act. Staging the monologue by itself, he said, was a mistake. The new sequence "started the motor of the play's story and connected the monologue more powerfully to the rest of the play, and it took some of the time pressure off the second and third acts," giving them a better balance. The other major alteration concerns the daughter and was made at the suggestion of Oskar Eustis, who directed the play at Trinity Repertory Theater in Providence. In the New York production the daughter spends the first half of the second act believing that her mother is dead and trying to find her body. Later she has doubts about her mother's fate. In the revised version the daughter begins with those doubts. "She finds her mother's death implausible," Mr. Kushner said. "She doesn't go out on the streets of Kabul to look for her mother's body but to find her mother who she believes is still alive." Responding to criticism that the daughter was too abrasive, Mr. Kushner said he tried to make her more sympathetic but found that the character was resistant. This is, he realized, a dysfunctional family. The father and daughter are "immensely unhappy," and there was nothing he could do about it. Still, the rewriting continues. It was Mr. Kushner's surmise that all playwrights did it. When it was suggested that Samuel Beckett did not rewrite, he said: "Well, Beckett is like Shakespeare. Johnson says about Shakespeare, `He scarce blotted a line.' Those people aren't human. They're from Mars, or something. I blot. My entire life is about blotting." Then he added, "Brecht is arguably as great a genius as Beckett, and he couldn't stop changing and rethinking." As for Shakespeare, he said, "Directors feel complete freedom to cut and chop and transpose, so in a sense the human race is rewriting him all the time." In Mr. Kushner's case there is something daunting about his process, especially with his two major works. Even as he is rewriting the second half of "Homebody/Kabul," he is also contemplating revisions of "Perestroika," the second half of "Angels in America," which Mike Nichols is directing as a six-hour HBO television mini-series. Reading a biography of Goethe Mr. Kushner discovered that Goethe believed that some of his plays were "incommensurable," that they were inevitably disproportionate, with the two parts of "Faust" being the classic example, the first part complete, the second part less satisfying. "I think all two-part plays follow the `Faust' model," Mr. Kushner said, naming "Peer Gynt," "Dance of Death" and "Angels in America." With "Homebody/Kabul" he hopes to avoid that pitfall. He is aware of the danger in endless rewriting, he said, and pointed to Walt Whitman as someone who damaged his own work: "Every time he put out `Leaves of Grass,' he changed it. `I celebrate myself' became `I celebrate myself, and sing myself.' It got weaker and weaker the more he potchked around with it," he said, summoning up a decidedly un-Whitmanesque image. By his own admission, Mr. Kushner is an obsessive potchkier, someone who makes a fuss, and he can even question the act of inspiration: "A gush of ideas or words absolutely has to be reexamined and reread and worked on. Is it a breaking through of a muse's song, or is it just noise that you generate to distract your terror?" In his case, he fears he is going to fail. He said he began every play with that trepidation. Having said all that, he acknowledged the "Homebody" monologue as a burst of intuition. The British actress Kika Markham had asked him to write a monologue for her. In 1997 he began it in his office and wrote most of it on a night flight to London. Arriving there he checked into a hotel, finished writing the piece and then slept the rest of the day. The next morning he met Ms. Markham and the director Annie Castledine, and the actress read the monologue aloud. "Kika was horrified," he remembered. "She didn't know what the hell she was saying, and I was too tired to know. Annie loved it." The monologue was rushed into performance, running for three weeks in London. "Various friends who saw it said this is a great beginning, but there's so much more to the situation, and the character cannot talk about it." At a much more deliberate pace he wrote "Kabul" to follow "Homebody," and James C. Niola presented the entire work at the New York Theater Workshop in a production starring Ms. Emond. (Ms. Markham later appeared in the full play in London.) When "Homebody/Kabul" was in rehearsal in New York, Mr. Kushner considered bringing the Homebody back onstage in a dream sequence in Kabul. After Ms. Emond read it aloud with the other actors, she told the author she did not think the scene should be in the play. He agreed. Asked if he knew if the character lives or dies, he said: "I have different feelings on different days. I write in longhand, and then I type everything into my computer. In the longhand draft she is dead, and in the version that got into the computer she seems to be not dead. I honestly don't know." For the audience the ending remains ambiguous. On the cover of the published play there is a painting by Mr. Kushner's sister, Lesley, of a spectral form representing the head and shoulders of a woman. In his acknowledgments to the play he says that only he and his sister and other family members "know best and miss most the spirit that haunts the painting and the play." That spirit is Mr. Kushner's mother, a classical musician who died in 1990. "The Homebody is in some ways a portrait of my mother," he said. "There's a particular quality of pride, a virtuosic display and at the same time mortification that seems always to follow on the heels of it. There's a kind of narcissistic wrestling going on in the soul of this woman that I think had a lot to do with my mother, a very loving person but mercurial. She's a very difficult person to talk about, which is also what the daughter finds in the play." His mother saw "Millennium Approaches," Part 1 of "Angels in America," in its first production in Los Angeles in 1990, and, he said, "it scared her," partly because of the closeness to her and her son. In the play the character Joe Pitt telephones his mother and tells her he is gay, a scene from Mr. Kushner's own life. Mr. Kushner's father, also a classical musician, found the work upsetting but immediately told his son that it was a wonderful play. In 1993 "Millennium Approaches" won the Pulitzer Prize. Mr. Kushner is in the midst of a highly creative phase. In addition to his work with Mr. Nichols on the film of "Angels in America" (starring Al Pacino, Meryl Streep and Emma Thompson, with Michael Gambon and Simon Callow as ghosts), he is writing the book and lyrics for a musical, "Caroline or Change," composed by Jeanine Tesori. The musical takes place in Lake Charles, La., where Mr. Kushner grew up. "Even though it's not actually autobiographical, it's the closest to autobiography of anything I've done." He is also writing a film about an episode in the life of Eugene O'Neill, and has been working for many years on "Henry Box Brown," about slavery. The shelves in his office are lined with books on the subject. In common with his other plays, this one will be deeply imbedded in research. While carefully apportioning his time among all these projects, he remains focused on the evolution of "Homebody/Kabul." Suddenly he said: "I have a very radical idea for a rewrite that will make it a much shorter play. I'll take out the meat cleaver and clear away the fat. My suspicion is that it will be a diminishment, but I think it's worth trying." Then there is his long-planned journey to Afghanistan. Nancy Hatch Dupree, who wrote the guidebook that is one of the sources of "Homebody/Kabul," has encouraged him to do a theater workshop with playwrights in Kabul. "I'd love to take her up on it," he said. "But it's a little too volatile there." This would be his first trip to Afghanistan. As always, Mr. Kushner remains an intrepid traveler in his imagination.

I:  I'm sorry but the whole "French revolution fought by junior high students" was just eerie to me.  I know everbody else, including you, has been bouncin' off the walls for this thing.  "Aww, look at all the cute kids doing this big famous musical!"  Look at all the cute kids doing a show which basically says in order to succeed in life you must either be borin' or evil and that if you try to change your life you'll get beaten, have your head shaved, and then die!  But the kids were good.

M:  That they were, yes.  (Pause) A lump of bull excrement.

I:  What?

M:  Think for a moment.  It'll come.

[NEohioPAL]PARADE INFORMATIVE AT CASSIDY/KABUL A LONG SIT AT DOBAMA Message-ID: <20020915215154.17610.qmail@web12005.mail.yahoo.com> PARADE ENLIGHTENS AT CASSIDY/DOBAMA?S HOMEBODY/KABUL A LONG SIT --THE TIMES NEWSPAPERS-- Roy Berko (Member, American Theatre Critics Association) Lorain County Times--Westlaker Times--Lakewood News Times--Olmsted-Fairview Times PARADE ENLIGHTENS AT CASSIDY Cassidy Theatre is noted as a community theatre which tends to play it safe. It produces the likes of Neil Simon comedies and pleasant Broadway hit musicals. That?s what its generally conservative audience wants, and the audience is composed of local taxpayers who financially support the theatre. But every once in a while the theatre goes out on a wing. They are doing that now with the musical PARADE. They are, in fact, one of the first nonprofessional theatres in the country to tackle this controversial piece. The show has two major blocks to success. The production requires a huge cast, in Cassidy?s case, over 35 bodies. The players must be talented enough to both act and sing their way through a script that requires high drama and good voices. Secondly, the story is very serious, not normally the basis for audience enjoyment. In 1913, Leo Frank, a Brooklyn-born Jew living in Georgia, was put on trial for the murder of 13-year-old Mary Phagan, a factory worker under his employ. Though innocent, he is guilty in the eyes of everyone around him who. They don?t like that he is Jewish, a northerner, and rich. His only defenders are a governor with a conscience, and his assimilated Southern wife who finds the strength and love to become his champion. PARADE tells the story pretty accurately, even including actual words spoken by the real-life characters. Its goal is to educate people about the tragedy of prejudice. It is successful in doing this. As one critic said, "I left the theatre shaking, horrified at what I'd just seen, moved to tears. Real life dramas are hard enough, but stories this tragic are just shattering." The show won two Tony Awards. Cassidy is fortunate that its former artistic director David Jecman has returned to take on the production. Jecman has a clear sense of purpose for the staging. He also knows the limits of his amateur cast and has not sugar-coated the material. Don Irven portrays Leo Frank with well-measured compassion. Maggie Wirfel gives a polished performance as Frank?s wife. Jecman, in contrast to most directors, has paid much attention to the supporting players and the effort shows. The highlight of the show is the well-honed trial segment. Is the production perfect? No, the choreography is weak, some of the acting is very amateurish, several performers over act, and the required southern drawls come and go. But this is a community theatre and an amateur production that has undertaken the staging of a tough show. In spite of Jecman and the cast?s work, and the high quality of the script, some audience members vocally indicated they didn?t "enjoy" the production. This, of course, was not the university reaction, it is ironic that in the area of Cuyahoga county which has had much publicity regarding its lack of openness to minorities, some people would reject their being educated to the horrors of prejudice. People like the woman who vocally complained as she marched down the aisle at intermission, "I didn?t come to the theatre to see stuff like this," ought to realize that not all life?s experiences are meant to be "enjoyed!" This is a show worth seeing! PARADE will be performed at the Cassidy Theatre, 6200 Pearl Road, Parma Heights through September 29. Tickets may be obtained by calling 440-842-4600. DOBAMA?S HOMEBODY/KABUL IS A LONG SIT Tony Kushner is noted as being a political playwright. He has charted German social democratic impotence in A BRIGHT ROOM CALLED DAY. In SLAVS, he probes the death of the Soviet Union. In his most acclaimed work, the two-part, nine-hour epic ANGELS IN AMERICA, he examines personal suffering and betrayal in the worlds of disease, homophobia, and reactionary politics. In all of his plays he uses lots and lots and lots of words. At the beginning of PERESTROIKA (part two of ANGELS IN AMERICA) a character asks, "The great question before us is: will the past release us?" He continues to probe that question in his rambling new play HOMEBODY/KABUL, which is getting its midwestern debut at Dobama Theatre. Ironically, Kushner wrote the play before 9/11/2001. This makes the work, which is set in Afghanistan, rather remarkable and a little eerie. He talks about places and topics that most Americans weren?t even aware of before that fateful date. Our journey starts with an hour-long monologue in which Homebody, a middle-aged British matron, offers glimpses of the pain of a loveless marriage as she conjures a stream-of-consciousness vision of an ancient land and culture, a place of "strangeness and beauty." A place from which history dawns and is the burial sight of Cain, the killing brother of Bibical history. Homebody leaves home to visit Afghanistan and disappears. What happened to her is the mystery that her husband, an uncommunicative communications expert, and her daughter, a neurotic, alienated young woman, strive to discover during the next two acts. Was she killed by a mob offended by her apparent flouting of Muslim female propriety? Is she still alive? Has she taken the veil and married a Muslim doctor? As is his habit, Kushner layers his narrative with fascinating historical facts and observations, in this case, Western and Afghan culture. Some scenes are powerful such as when a rejected Afghan wife rages at the West's complicity in bringing the Taliban to power. Some are seemingly meaningless bits of information. In reality, the play could have ended with the conclusion of the first act and been satisfying. In spite of some brilliant dialogue and philosophical importance, Kushner does not heed the adage, "The mind can absorb what the seat can endure." The major topic at both intermissions on opening night was the interminable length of the show. Dobama?s production is well staged. Nan Wray is nothing short of brilliant as Homebody. Robert Hawkes, is properly emotionally challenged as the very linear husband. Scott Platte is effective in his role as an undefined diplomat. Bernadette Clemens is often too strident as the daughter. Jean Zarzour gives a special dimension to the Muslim doctor?s shunned wife. Director Joel Hammer should have been aware that modern-day audiences, even the intellectual ones who attend Dobama productions, are not going to cotton to a play that clocks in at 3 hours, 45 minutes. If Kushner wouldn?t cut the script, Hammer should have. Sections could have been red penciled without destroying the message, probably enhancing the meaning. HOMEBODY/KABUL plays at Dobama Theatre, 1846 Coventry Road, Cleveland Heights through October 6. For tickets call 216-932-6838. __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
