HARTFORD STAGE

Kevin Bacon will star in Hartford Stage's production of Rear window, directed by Darko Tresnjak.

OCT. 22 – NOV, 15
Adapted for the Stage by Keith Reddin
Based upon the Story “Rear Window”
by Cornell Woolrich

Bacon is a Golden Globe Award winner and Emmy Award nominee, whose films include "A Few Good Men," "Apollo 13," "Footloose," and "Murder in the First." His theater credits include Forty Deuce (OBIE Award), Spike Heels, and the Broadway productions of Slab Boys and An Almost Holy Picture.

THE PALACE

The Palace Theater in Waterbury is seeking enthusiastic and outgoing individuals to volunteer as tour guides as part of the theater’s Ambassadors program. The venue’s historical backstage tours have grown in popularity over the past year and more tour guides are needed to meet the demand. Recruitment meetings for the program will be held at the theater, 100 East Main Street in Waterbury, on Tuesday, Aug. 24 and Monday, Aug. 31, at 5:30p.m.

The Palace Theater Ambassadors are a specially trained group of engaging volunteers well versed in the theater’s history, architectural design and entertaining anecdotal information. On the first Friday of every month and on select weekend and weekdays throughout the year, the theater’s tour guides work as a team to facilitate guided tours of the historic venue to members of the public. Tours are conducted at various times throughout the week, but primarily in the daytime and afternoon hours.

Volunteers interested in participating in the program must be at least 18 years of age and have good public speaking and people skills, in addition to being physically able to move with ease on a walking tour that includes stairs. In addition to speaking in front of large groups, the ability to thinking on one’s feet is also a valuable asset. Volunteer hours are flexible based on tour schedules and the individual’s availability, but each shift requires a minimum two-hour time commitment on average.

Individuals interested in joining the Ambassadors program are asked to sign-up for one of the informational meetings on Tuesday, Aug. 24 or Monday, Aug. 31, by contacting Palace Marketing Associate Brian Kimmey at 203.346.2012 or kimmey@palacetheaterct.org. After the initial meeting, those interested in becoming a tour guide will be required to attend subsequent training sessions prior to becoming an official Palace Ambassador.

Westport Country Playhouse's 2016 season will feature two Tony Award-winning plays in repertory, an Off-Broadway hit, a new thriller by a Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright, a comedy a re-imagined musical by Lerner and Loewe. 

The 2016 season will begin in what Artistic Director Mark Lamos calls “a new way for us to launch an exciting new season.”  In the first production slot, May 3 to 29, two Tony Award-winning plays will be staged in repertory, with each play alternating daily:  Art by Yasmin Reza, translated by Christopher Hampton; and Red by John Logan.  Both will be directed by Lamos.  Each of the plays is about art:  making it, owning it, the anguish of creating it, and the ache of believing in it.  

The recent Off-Broadway comedy hit Buyer and Cellar by Jonathan Tolins, which won a Lucille Lortel Award for Outstanding Solo Show, is about a young, out-of-work actor who winds up working for Barbra Streisand in the mall she built in her Malibu mansion. It will play June 14 – July 2.

Another recent Off-Broadway piece, The Invisible Hand, is a new thriller by Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright Ayad Akhtar, author of Broadway’s Disgraced. When an American futures trader finds himself kidnapped and held hostage in Pakistan, he knows the only way to get home is to do what he does best:  play the market like his life depends on it.  David Kennedy, Playhouse associate artistic director, will direct. The play will run July 19 – Aug. 6. 

The comedy, What the Butler Saw, offering a little blackmail, and a lot of innuendo, will play Aug. 23 – Sept. 10.  It is written by Joe Orton, and directed by John Tillinger, who helmed a recent production in Los Angeles.

Finally, Camelot will run Oct. 4 – 22.  With book and lyrics by Alan Jay Lerner, music by Frederick Loewe, and directed by Lamos, the classic love triangle of King Arthur, Queen Guinevere, and Sir Lancelot will be a re-imagined version with script by David Lee (TV’s “Frasier” and “Cheers”).

All tickets purchased for this Friday’s concert will be honored on the rescheduled performance date. For more information, call the Box Office at 203-346-2000.

Theater Review: Memphis -- Ivoryton

Renee Jackson and cast. Photo courtesy of Roger Williams.

Ivoryton Spins Another Hit with Memphis
By Lauren Yarger
The early days of rock and roll, racial tension in the 1950s south and a love story (put in a clear and humorous book by Joe DiPietro) along with a bouncy score written by former Bon Jovi keyboardest David Bryan drive an excellent production of Memphis at Ivoryton Playhouse.

Todd Underwood directs and choreographs the 2010 Tony-Award winning musical. (He choreographed La Cage aux Folles and Dreamgirls at the Playhouse.) Underwood has assembled an outstanding ensemble, led by Carson Higgins and Rénee Jackson, with very strong supporting performances by Teren Carter, Melodie Wolford, David Robbins and Jamal Shuriah. He puts them through their paces and neatly pulls the action together on Martin Scott Marchitto’s set.

The action takes place at the dawn of rock and roll, when Perry Como (Michael Sullivan) and others dominate the radio waves.  Huey Calhoun (Higgins) is a never-do-well department salesman who can’t find his niche. He takes refuge in the sounds of the rhythm and blues of black clubs in the city.  like the one owned by Delray (Carter), featuring the vocal talents of his sister, Felicia Farrell (Jackson). There he becomes friends with singing talent Bobbie Dupree (Robbins) and Gator (Jamal Shuriah), who hasn’t spoken since seeing his father lynched in front of him when he was a boy. Let’s just say that when he does lend a voice, it’s worth listening to both for its message and vocal quality.

When Huey realizes that he’s not the only white person who enjoys this type of music, he spins some “black” records at the department store and launches his career as a radio disc jockey. Station owner Mr. Simmons (Beau Allen) is a bit hesitant at first, but when ratings go through the roof, Huey soon finds himself number one on the Memphis dial. Shouting his trademark “huckado!,” the free- spirited man with bad taste in clothes (Elizabeth Cipollina provides the Costume and Wig Design) finally loves what he does – but something else too.

Huey loves Felicia, who dreams of making it big as a singer and urges Huey to come to New York with her where their romance might be accepted. Huey’s mother, Gladys (
Melodie Wolford) opposes the match, as does Delray. Some of the musical’s finest moments come in the interaction between him and Huey as the men take stands for what they believe in while sharing mutual respect. The couple decides to keep their interracial romance, sure to be a powder keg in the midst of civil rights unrest, a secret, though Huey believes Memphis will embrace it as they have him. Eventually, he discovers he's wrong.

An excellent nine-man orchestra, directed by Michael Morris, plays upstage and has the audience toe tapping along to tunes including “The Music of My Soul,” “Everybody Wants to Be Black on Saturday Night,” "Someday,” Love Will Stand,” Memphis Lives in Me” and “Steal Your Rock ‘n’ Roll.” have the audience bopping along. Memphis is one of those rare shows where each song stands on its own and there is enough variety between ballad and hop to keep it interesting before the humor-laced script by Ivoryton favorite DiPietro (I Love You, You’re Perfect, Now Change, All Shook Up, The Toxic Avenger, Nice Work if You Can Get it).


This was a rare treat for me, one of the few times I put my notepad down and just enjoy. The only glitches of the evening were some consistent problems with feedback (Sound Design by Tate R. Burmeister) and costumes (design by Elizabeth Cipollina who also does wigs) that seemed to have static-electricity issues.

Memphis plays a sweet tune through Aug. 30 at Ivoryton Playhouse, 103 Main St., Ivoryton. Performances are Wednesday and Sunday matinees at 2 pm; Wednesday and Thursday at 7:30 pm; Friday and Saturday at 8 pm.  There will be two additional Saturday matinees on Aug. 22 and 29 at 2 pm.  Tickets are $42 for adults, $37 for seniors, $20 for students and $15 for children.

Tickets on Sale for New Hartford Symphony Season

Carolyn Kuan. Photo: Jane Shauck
HARTFORD SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA 2015-2016 SEASON
MASTERWORKS SERIES
NEW WORLD VISIONS
October 1-4, 2015
Carolyn Kuan conductor
Caroline Goulding violin
Adams Shaker Loops
Bruch Violin Concerto No. 1 in G minor, Op. 26
Dvořák Symphony No. 9 in E minor, Op. 95, From the New World
The season opener features composers who were inspired by diverse musical traditions and genres to create visionary new works.  John Adams’ score for string ensemble was named for both the sound of the strings “shaking” as they oscillate between notes, and the imagery of Shakers dancing to energetic music as they worship.  Bruch’s most famous composition remains one of the most frequently performed of all violin concerti. The “New World” – Dvořák’s most popular symphony (and the recording Neil Armstrong took along for the first moon landing) – was influenced by the melodies of Beethoven and Schubert, as well as the rhythms of African-American spirituals. Sponsored by the Saunders Fund for Innovative Programming and MetLife Foundation.

BOLD BEETHOVEN
November 5-7, 2015
William Eddins conductor and piano
Beethoven
Coriolan Overture, Op. 62
Piano Concerto No. 3 in C minor, Op. 37
Symphony No. 8 in F Major, Op.93
Back by popular demand, guest conductor William (Bill) Eddins returns to conduct the HSO in an all-Beethoven program.  The overture, inspired by von Collin’s play Coriolan and Shakespeare’s tragedy Coriolanus, contrasts a warrior’s bold resolve as he is about to invade Rome with the tender pleadings of his mother to desist.  Beethoven’s third piano concerto pays homage to Mozart’s 24th in its melodies, rhythmic gestures and phrasings.  His eighth symphony is light and humorous, contradictory (and perhaps conciliatory) to the composer’s circumstances during the summer of 1812, when he ended a romantic relationship in a famous letter written to his “Immortal Beloved.” Sponsored by Cly-Del Manufacturing.

JOYFUL VOICES
with The Hartford Chorale
December 3-6, 2015
Carolyn Kuan conductor
Hartford Chorale
Richard Coffey, music director
Higdon Blue Cathedral
Fauré Requiem in D minor, Op. 48
Handel Excerpts from Messiah
Let joyous music warm your heart and lift your holiday spirit, as the masterful musicians of the HSO are joined by the magnificent voices of The Hartford Chorale.  2010 Pulitzer Prize winner Jennifer Higdon describes the muse for her composition as being “blue like the sky, where all possibilities soar…and a cathedral, a place of thought, growth and spiritual expression.”  Created almost certainly as a musical tribute to his father, Fauré’s Requiem is noted for its calm, serene and peaceful outlook.  Handel’s oratorio Messiah is the most powerful telling of the Passion story – a soaring celebration of salvation and rebirth! 

BATTLE OF THE BATONS
January 21-24, 2016
Three finalists will conduct the HSO as part of the selection process for the new Assistant Conductor position!
Edward Rozie double bass; Robert McEwan vibraphone; Leonid Sigal violin
Bottesini Bass Concerto No. 2 in B minor, 2nd & 3rd Movements
Sejourne Concerto for Vibraphone and Strings, 1st Movement
Saint-Saëns Introduction and Rondo Capriccioso in A minor, Op. 28
Mozart Overture to Die Zauberflöte. K. 620 (The Magic Flute)
Debussy Prélude à l'après-midi d'un faune (Prelude to The Afternoon of a Faun)
Borodin Polovtsian Dances
Here’s your opportunity to hear, see and play your part!  After the performance, you’ll have the opportunity to voice your choice for Associate Conductor, a new position that will assist Music Director Carolyn Kuan to extend the HSO’s community and educational outreach.  During the first part of the program, each candidate will conduct an orchestral show piece, featuring HSO principal musicians.  Each candidate will then conduct the full HSO in a tour-de-force, showcasing the orchestra’s might and delicacy under his or her leadership. 

LOVE NOTES
February 11-14, 2016
Carolyn Kuan conductor
Wagner Tristan und Isolde, Prelude & Liebestod
Bach Concerto for Violin & Oboe in C minor
Beethoven Piano Sonata No. 14 in C-sharp minor, "Quasi una fantasia" (“Moonlight Sonata”) Additional orchestral works to be announced
Musical love tales and beautiful choreography take center stage in this program that will include Pas de Deux selections with featured dancers. Wagner's transcendent opera will have you spellbound.  Reminiscent of many couples in love, Bach relished the challenge of writing for two dissimilar instruments, emphasizing their qualities in common and making harmony of their differences. Beethoven’s “Moonlight Sonata” was likened to the romantic effect of the moon shining upon Switzerland’s picturesque Lake Lucerne.  Bring your loved one – and share your own love notes – for a special Valentines’ night out!  The Alexander Campbell McNally Memorial Concert

RUSSIAN MASTERS
March 10-13, 2016
Carolyn Kuan conductor
Simone Porter violin
Prokofiev Symphony No. 1 in D Major, Op. 25
Tchaikovsky Violin Concerto in D Major, Op. 35 
Prokofiev Symphony No. 5 in B-flat Major, Op.100
Carolyn Kuan and the HSO interpret the red-hot and icy-cool works of two iconic Russian masters!  Inspired by his conducting studies of Haydn and Mozart, Prokofiev’s first symphony is known as the “Classical” and remains one of his most popular and beloved works.  Written while in a Soviet safe haven during World War II, Prokofiev described his fifth symphony as “a hymn to free and happy Man, to his mighty powers, his pure and noble spirit.”  One of the best-known violin concerti in the repertoire, Tchaikovsky’s is widely considered as one of the most technically difficult works for the instrument.  The Koski Memorial Concert

ORPHEUS & EURYDICE: TRANSFORMED
April 7-10, 2016
Carolyn Kuan conductor
Gluck Orpheo ed Euridice (Orpheus & Eurydice)
The HSO transforms Gluck’s most famous opera with a dramatic concert staging of sumptuous sights and sounds.  Orpheus & Eurydice is the exhilarating account of the mythical Greek hero’s descent into the underworld to rescue his true love.  Its exceptional libretto and music – evocative choral passages, imaginative ballets, dramatic duets, and the hero’s famous lament – convey a timeless message of love’s power to triumph over all.

ROMANTIC RACHMANINOFF
May 12-15, 2016
Anne Manson conductor
Alex Slobodyanik piano
Rachmaninoff
Piano Concerto No. 1 in F-sharp minor
Symphony No. 2 in E minor, Op. 27
Wrote Sergei Rachmaninoff, “I try to make my music speak simply and directly, that which is in my heart.”  The public was already familiar with Rachmaninoff’s second and third piano concertos before he revised his first, begun at age 18. Using an acquired knowledge of harmony, orchestration, piano technique and musical form, he transformed it into a spirited work that maintains its youthful freshness.  Rachmaninoff’s second symphony combines the intense emotions of opera with the luscious sounds of a full symphony orchestra.   Although written more than 100 years ago, its sweeping melodies still speak to the hearts of audiences today (pop singer Eric Carmen even borrowed the melody for his hit, “Never Gonna Fall in Love Again!”).

AN AMERICAN IN PARIS: WORLD WINDS
June 9-12, 2016
Carolyn Kuan conductor
Kayhan Kalhor kamancheh
David Krakauer klezmer clarinet
Christina Pato Galician bagpipe
Michael Ward-Bergeman accordion
Gershwin An American in Paris
Golijov Rose of the Winds
Rachmaninoff Symphonic Dances, Op. 45
Our season finale is a “world-wind” tour of exotic international sights and sounds featuring our woodwind section!  Symphonic Dances was Rachmaninoff's last completed composition and is a stunning virtuoso showpiece for orchestra, combining energetic rhythmic sections with lush harmonies.  George Gershwin’s jazz-influenced symphonic poem evokes the energy he witnessed in Paris during the 1920s, and remains one of his best-known and most beloved compositions. Osvaldo Golijov's Rose of the Winds is a “bold yet seamless melding of musical resonances from Christian, Arabic and Jewish traditions, with ear-catching instrumental sounds and colors representing numerous points of the compass,” said theChicago Tribune.
