ACCOUNTING FOR IT LAST MONTH Alana Reed and John Scott I discussed some challenges for the PAC with regard to next fiscal year’s budget. Drawing from the City’s General Fund and Convention Fund, our typical yearly expense budget ranges from $2.4 to $2.8 million. It comprises 86 different line items contained in five cost centers, including Administration, Stage and Tech Services, Customer Services, Plant Services and PAC Trust Programming. Ever wonder who tracks all those expenses and pays our bills? That would be Alana Reed, PAC Senior Accounting Specialist. Even though each cost center’s expenses are monitored by a division manager, Alana’s responsibilities include overall supervision of all monies paid out for such things as personnel, supplies, tools, theatrical equipment and outside vendor contracts. Once our annual budget is approved by the Mayor and City Council, Alana must account for every penny disbursed. As if that were not enough, Alana also is the “check and balance” for the high volume of dollars coming into our ticket office. Averaging $7.5 million per year ($10.8 million last year with The Lion King), ticket office gross sales are held in escrow until the individual events take place, after which Alana computes each show’s settlement (final accounting). Facility expenses are subtracted from the ticket proceeds net of sales tax with the balance paid to or collected from the event’s sponsoring organization. With more than 500 performances per year, Alana’s is the epitome of a full-time job and, after 26 years, no one does it better. Enjoy a range of events this month, including opera, drama, musicals and Miss Shelly’s annual dance recital. Treat yourself to several this month. As always, thanks for your support and I’ll see you in the lobby.

RACE
DAVID MAMET’S Race is about a wealthy white man, played by Kris Farnsworth, who is accused of raping a black woman. The story takes a different turn than expected when he hires a team of lawyers — a white man (Jeremy Geiger), a black man (Freddie Tate), and their young female associate (Karla Ford) — to defend him. As they review evidence, shame, guilt and personal feelings about racial harmony emerge. As a playwright, Mamet won a Pulitzer Prize and received Tony Award nominations for Glengarry Glen Ross and Speed-the-Plow. As a screenwriter, he has received Oscar nominations for The Verdict and Wag the Dog.
THE NEVERENDING STORY BASED ON Michael Ende’s book of the same name that gave birth to the movie adaptation, The Neverending Story is the tale of Bastian Bux (Chris Delano), a bullied boy who becomes lost in the pages of a magical book, and Atreyu (Wesley Dotson), a young hero chosen to save a fantastical world and its dying empress from annihilation. Directed by Jana Ellis and suitable for all ages, The Neverending Story is an enchanting tale that celebrates the triumph of imagination. May 2-3, 8-10 at 7:30 p.m. May 4 at 2 p.m.

Join the cows, hen and duck — and their trusty typewriter — as they engage in a peaceful protest to improve their working conditions.
ADAPTED BY Lydia R. Diamond from the novel by Nobel Prize-winning author Toni Morrison, The Bluest Eye is about the tragic life of a young black girl in 1940s Ohio. Eleven-year-old Pecola Breedlove wants nothing more than to be loved by her family and schoolmates. Instead, she faces constant ridicule and abuse. She blames her dark skin and prays for blue eyes, sure that love will follow. With rich language and bold vision, this powerful adaptation of an American classic explores the crippling toll that a legacy of racism has taken on a community, a family, and an innocent girl. The cast includes Reynada Robinson, Aneathra Hawkins, Sabrina Hall, Harriet Harris, Frankie Cole, Tamaiya Lewis, Kiana Hall, Lee Roach, C.J. Jenkins, Victor Muse and Althea Pierce.

NUN ON THE RUN by Kendra Blevins
ang the gong, let’s get it on!” exclaims the baton-wielding Deloris Van Cartier in the musical Sister Act. Based on the popular 1992 movie starring Whoopi Goldberg, Sister Act takes the comedy of the film and combines it with music by Alan Menken and lyrics by Glen Slater. “It’s all new music,” says Ta’rea Campbell, who plays Deloris in the musical. “The audience can expect to see lots of sparkles, and it’s extremely funny. They won’t miss the movie aspect because the musical stands on its own.” While the musical definitely captures the comedy of the movie, it ups the pizzazz with music inspired by 1970s acts like Donna Summer. The main differences between the movie and the musical are that the play is set in Philadelphia instead of California, the time is the ’70s instead of the ’90s, and the music has a groovy disco vibe. Sister Act combines two recurring elements of Campbell’s performance credits: musicals composed by Menken and musicals with religious themes. She 12

performed in two Menken musicals — Little Shop of Horrors and Leap of Faith — on Broadway before joining the U.S. tour of Sister Act in 2012. Campbell has also been in The Book of Mormon and The Gospel According to Fishman. She dismisses all of that as pure coincidence, saying she was attracted to Sister Act because she thought the show was a good fit for her. “I thought the show was fantastic, and the characters were funny,” she says. Apparently many others think
so too. Sister Act opened in London in 2006 with Goldberg in the role of Mother Superior and garnered four Olivier Award nominations. In 2011 it came to Broadway, where it earned five Tony nominations and was up for five Drama Desk Awards. Productions of Sister Act have been mounted in Germany, Austria, the Netherlands, Italy and France, with more planned for other countries. Campbell has been with the U.S. tour since its inception in 2012. She

first came to Tulsa in 2006 as Nala in The Lion King, and she says she is looking forward to returning as the feisty Deloris, a former nightclub singer who, after witnessing her boyfriend, Curtis, commit a violent crime, has been placed in a convent for her own protection. Deloris (now known as Sister Mary Clarence) trades her hip ’70s attire for a nun’s habit and tries to fit in, but her lively personality keeps getting her in trouble. Not accustomed to the strict rules of the convent, Deloris finds ways to break the monotony, like sneaking out to the neighborhood disco, only to be followed by two of the nuns and then reprimanded by Mother Superior and Eddie, the detective responsible for Deloris’ safety. To keep Deloris in line, Mother Superior assigns her to the painfully bad church choir, but that doesn’t keep Deloris down. She is in her element and, baton in hand, raises the spirits of the choir, creating a noteworthy group that brings in more congregants, more donations, and an audience with the Pope. Campbell’s favorite scene in the musical is “Raise Your Voice,” in which the nuns let loose an explosion of confidence that they’ve kept under wraps, due to Mother Superior’s regard for tradition and meekness. Played by Hollis Resnik, Mother Superior is not a fan of Deloris’ ways, but is trying to do her Christian duty to care for someone in need. Also, the church desperately needs the money the choir is bringing in! However, the choir’s success also grabs the attention of journalists, and Curtis and his thugs see Deloris on TV. With her cover blown, she has to suddenly leave the convent and prepare to stand trial against her old boyfriend. Although Deloris never planned to stay in the convent forever, after achieving success with the choir and bonding with the sisters, she feels guilty when she has to tell them who she really is and that she has to leave before they can perform for the Pope.
Faced with a crisis of conscience, Deloris has to make a decision: Will she leave the convent behind and sing her way to the top of the disco scene or will she go for deeper meaning in her life?
“The character is written wonderfully,” says Campbell. “Deloris goes through a lot of emotions. She’s a complex woman, so I never get bored. Each night is a unique performance.”

A Favorite Thing by Rachel Weaver
D
id you catch the live TV performance of The Sound of Music starring Carrie Underwood? The December 2013 production sparked new and renewed interest in the classic as the von Trapp family won our hearts all over again. Theatre Tulsa didn’t need to be wooed. The longstanding local theatre company had already begun planning a production of The Sound of Music, securing the rights from Rodgers and Hammerstein Theatricals to tell the heroic, heartening and mostly true tale of the Trapp Family Singers for the last production in Theatre Tulsa’s 91st season. It’s a story familiar to most, thanks to the popular 1965 movie starring Julie Andrews. Maria, a nun in Austria during the dawning of World War II, is sent to be a governess for the seven children of widower Captain Georg von Trapp. Maria reintroduces music to the strict household, and she and the captain fall in love and marry. Von Trapp is called to join the German navy, but instead he and his family “Climb Ev’ry Mountain” and escape over the Alps. As viewers of the recent TV performance discovered, the stage musical, which came first, in 1959, is only
slightly different from the movie. All the beloved songs are there, such as “My Favorite Things,” “So Long, Farewell,” “The Sound of Music” and “Edelweiss.” In addition, the musical has three songs that were cut from the movie: “How Can Love Survive?,” “No Way to Stop It” and “An Ordinary Couple.” The actually “not-so-ordinary” couple, Maria and Captain von Trapp, are played by Kelsey Kemper and David Lawrence, part of a 60-member cast that includes two groups of von Trapp children, who will alternate performances. With only seven youth roles in the production, director Sara Phoenix said she wanted to give as many children as possible the opportunity to be in the show, which Theatre Tulsa last staged in 1986. “We had 80 local kids come and audition — just absolutely amazing talent,” she says. Lawrence, a new father, says playing the patriarch of a large family is a privilege and responsibility. “The fact that Captain von Trapp and the Trapp Family Singers were real people
and the show itself is an homage to truelife events is a big deal to me,” he says. Other cast members include Kristin Harding as Baroness Elsa Schraeder, Jeremy Stevens as Max Detweiler and John Tupy as Rolf. The role of the Captain’s “Sixteen Going on Seventeen” daughter Liesl is shared by Hannah Finnegan and Cherish Masters. Phoenix encourages parents to bring their children. “I remember the first time my parents took me to see a stage production of The Sound of Music when I was 10 years old,” she recalls. “Movies come and go, but the experience of live theatre is a special event children will never forget.”

An Interview With a Gypsy C
armen famously bombed at the box office and with critics when it premiered at Paris’ staunchly traditional Opèra Comique in 1875. Luckily for music lovers, the opera was soon remounted to great acclaim in Vienna, and it quickly had audiences leaping to their feet across Europe and in America. One hundred and thirty nine years later, Georges Bizet’s masterwork about a beguiling gypsy and the soldier who surrenders to her seduction is widely regarded as the most popular opera in the world. Mezzo-soprano Leann SandelPantaleo, who makes her Tulsa Opera debut as Carmen this month, says the reasons for this are pretty straightforward. “Bizet melds the music with feeling. He takes complex music and makes it seem effortless, and there is a physical connection for audiences,” she explains. “It’s sensual but approachable to all of us, and it’s fun.” She also believes that Americans in particular may love Carmen because, in form, it shares many similarities with Broadway musicals. Whether she’s performing Amneris in Aïda or Siegrune in Die Walküre, SandelPantaleo is praised for her ability to truly inhabit her roles. When she sang Carmen with Utah Opera in 2010, she says artistic director Christopher McBeth approached her after a rehearsal and said, “Excuse me. Are you her?” McBeth was probably joking, and to her credit, her answer was, “I hope not,” but Sandel-Pantaleo thinks she has a few things in common with Carmen. “I’m not so afraid of what people think of me,” she says. “Carmen doesn’t play by the rules, and I’m a rule-breaker. I’m unapologetically nonconventional, and I’m always led by my passion.” 18

I See Your Gypsy
There may well be something of the gypsy in Sandel-Pantaleo, too. Though she’s found her way to the stages of La Scala, Staatsoper Berlin, The Metropolitan Opera and other world-famous opera companies, her path to becoming an opera singer wasn’t conventional. At age ten, she moved to a farm in rural Michigan, where she learned to garden, drive tractors and raise pigs. She was active in 4-H, where she won the title of Grand Showman. Fate stepped in during her high school years, when she was asked to choose a summer camp. “I was tall, so I thought I would do basketball, but it turns out I was really awkward,” she says. Music camp was her second choice and not just any music program. She ended up at the renowned Interlochen Center for the Arts and found herself transformed by the experience. “Music opened up my life. I was happier than I’d ever been,” she remembers. The young Sandel-Pantaleo excelled at Interlochen. She won a scholarship to return the following summer, sang leading roles in H.M.S. Pinafore and Carousel, won a concerto competition, and she was even invited to attend school at Interlochen on scholarship. She turned down that offer, but it was there at summer camp that she was first introduced to opera and encouraged to attend college and study music. Sandel-Pantaleo went to the famed music school at Indiana University, a solid step on the path to becoming a professional singer. However, although she had
by Thomas Golden
a great teacher, college wasn’t a positive experience, and it was the beginning of a dark period in her life. After college, she left music and moved to the West Coast, but opera was always calling, always in the back of her mind. Eventually, she took part in The Metropolitan Opera National Council Auditions. She didn’t advance, but she was encouraged to get back into music. Thus began an odyssey that included touring the nation as a pop singer, moving to Italy to learn the language, and earning a master’s degree from Butler University. Then one day came an experience that snapped everything into focus. “I remember it vividly. I was watching a video of Placido Domingo and Teresa Stratas singing La traviata with tears streaming down my face,” SandelPantaleo recalls. “I knew this was what I had to do and that I had to get serious.” She moved to New York and found a vocal coach to help refine her skills, making the switch from soprano to mezzo — something she found rather horrifying at the time. “I didn’t want to be a second-class citizen. At least that’s how I thought of it at the time,” she admits. “Boy, was I wrong! Becoming a mezzo not only opened up new qualities in my voice, it opened new possibilities for me.”
The Late Bloomer
Sandel-Pantaleo made her professional debut as Santuzza in Cavalleria rusticana with PORTopera in Portland, Maine, in 2004. It was later in life than the typical debut, but she quickly made up for lost time. Soon, she was on stage at The Met singing Flora in La traviata and Siegrune.

The latter role, in Die Walküre, has become something of a specialty, taking her to Rome, Berlin, London and elsewhere. Sandel-Pantaleo sang her first Carmen with Chautauqua Opera in 2007. Now, it’s a standard in her repertoire — this is her eighth production — and a role for which she’s won the most critical acclaim. It’s also a role with which she’s become very familiar and comfortable (“It’s like a having a nice chair or couch”) but never takes for granted. “It’s a danger to say, ‘Oh, another one.’ I look for all the differences in each production, and I’m not afraid to take risks,” she says. In this Tulsa Opera production, SandelPantaleo sings the role opposite her friend Jonathan Burton as Don José. The two performed the same roles together last November in a celebrated production at Opera Omaha. It’s an exciting prospect for Sandel-Pantaleo. “This opera really should be called José’s Madness,” she says. “Jonathan is such a gifted singer and such a gifted actor. He’s truly one of the best I’ve worked with. When you’re around greatness and such authenticity, it’s amazing where you can go.” She also says that while this is a completely different production, she and Burton will be able to skip the trustbuilding process that costars typically go through. “I don’t have to wonder what he’s thinking,” she offers as an example. Sandel-Pantaleo is careful not to call Carmen her favorite role, but it’s clear that she has an affinity for the character. There is, however, something that bothers her about the role. “One of the things that ticks me off is that Micaela gets to steal the hearts of the audience and Carmen is the villain,” she says. “Micaela is loved, and Carmen gets what’s coming to her!”

WICKED
Joan Marcus
DECLARED “The Best Musical of the Decade” by Entertainment Weekly and “A Cultural Phenomenon” by Variety, this beloved backstory of the witches of Oz is the winner of more than 50 major awards, including a Grammy and three Tony Awards. Long before Dorothy drops in, two girls meet in the Land of Oz. One, born with emerald-green skin, is smart, fiery and misunderstood. The other is beautiful, ambitious and very popular. How these two grow to become the Wicked Witch of the West and Glinda the Good Witch makes for “the most complete and completely satisfying new musical in a long time,” wrote USA Today. The show is based on the novel by Gregory Maguire, with music and lyrics by Stephen Schwartz and book by Winnie Holzman. June 18–July 6 CHAPMAN MUSIC HALL Tickets are $35-$155.

ONE-MAN STAR WARS A FEW YEARS AGO, in a garage far, far away, comedian Charles Ross decided to put his Star Wars obsession to good use. He now performs the original movie trilogy — voices, sound effects, soundtrack and all — in a lightspeed 60-minute show that’s suitable for all ages. One-Man Star Wars is “funnier than you could imagine,” writes Spin
magazine. “Immediately accessible… it was great,” says Conan O’Brien. From off-Broadway New York to London’s West End, from Dubai resorts to the Glastonbury Music Festival, in small towns, big cities and at Lucasfilm’s own Star Wars conventions — this show has been places! June 13 at 7:30 p.m. J O H N H . W I L L I A M S T H E AT R E Tickets are $25.
TOP HAT MAGIC
FUN & FROLIC FAMILY MAGIC SHOW SIT BACK AND RELAX as master magician Steve Lancaster conjures up fun and exciting illusions with so many surprise endings, you will wonder, “How did he do that?” In addition, Sponji the Clown joins the show, bringing his own magic, comedy and balloons! Lancaster has been a magician for 30 years, performing coast to coast for conventions, sales meetings and banquets. In 1995, he was included in the Fechter’s Finger Flicking Frolic, an invitation-only gathering of the top 125 sleight-of-hand magicians in the world. Native Oklahoman John Pansze, a.k.a. Spongi the Clown, began exploring the mysteries of magic in 1976. Over the years, he has performed with numerous magicians, including the late Doug Henning.
VINTAGE WILDFLOWERS
VINTAGE WILDFLOWERS IN CONCERT ACCLAIMED FOR their instrumental prowess, onstage charm and soulful vocals, the Vintage Wildflowers have developed an enthusiastic legion of fans with their vibrant Celtic, folk and bluegrass blend. Equally at home before soldout festival crowds and intimate house concert audiences, the Vintage Wildflowers have performed at venues as varied the Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts, the North Texas Irish Festival, and the WoodSongs Old-Time Radio Hour. “Theirs is a full and rich sound that can fill a concert hall with song and three-part harmonies or, if they choose, make a tune resonate softly to float on the air over a coffee-house audience,” wrote Marie Gullard in the Washington Examiner. The Vintage Wildflowers are Abby Bozarth (fiddle, mandolin, harmony vocals, guitar), Dana Fitzgerald Maher (Celtic harp, piano, harmony vocals), and Audrey Schmidt (lead vocals, bass, guitar).
