About Door Shakespeare Door Shakespeare was created under the umbrella of American Folklore Theater in collaboration with Blue Circle Theatre in 1995. The first season produced in the Garden at Björklunden included A Midsommer Night’s Dream and The Comedie of Errors, which played in conjunction with the same acting company performing across the peninsula at American Folklore Theatre. In 1999, the organization became its own non-profit and has since produced 34 striking productions (including those that you are seeing today) of classical and contemporary theater by timeless playwrights including William Shakespeare, Oliver Goldsmith, Jean Baptiste Moliere, Edmond Rostand, Richard Brinsley Sheridan, and Oscar Wilde in the Garden of Björklunden’s estate on Lake Michigan in Baileys Harbor.

In early 2018, Amy Ensign and Michael Stebbins were hired as Door Shakespeare’s managing director and producing artistic director. Since that time, Door Shakespeare’s presence in the local and regional community has continued to grow and is enriched by educational programming, including Door Shakespeare’s Summer Theatre Program, Camp Will, as well as Will In The Woods lectures, Shake It Up Saturdays pre-show family activities, and Wine Nights. Door Shakespeare’s productions are regularly recognized in year-end top theatre lists, and for many local residents and visitors, Door Shakespeare has become a regular part of their Door County summer experience.

In Memorial gary buerstatte

Door Shakespeare lost a dear friend when former Board of Directors member and immediate Past Chair Gary Buerstatte passed away in December of 2018 at the age of 70.

A retired healthcare executive based in Milwaukee, Gary counted theater as one of his prime passions (there were also travel and sports—he was a diehard Green Bay Packers and Milwaukee Brewers fan); he brought that love and energy to Door Shakespeare throughout his many years on the Board. His steady leadership and guidance helped bring our company to the level of excellence it maintains today.

We will greatly miss seeing Gary’s broad smile in the gardens of Björklunden, and will long remember him in our hearts.

john hansen

Door Shakespeare lost another dear friend when John Hansen, an early supporter of the theater, and host/greeter for many years, passed suddenly in early February after a diagnosis of pancreatic cancer.

He was 66. A potter and teacher, John was also an enthusiastic supporter of grassroots theater. His warm welcome to Shakespeare’s theater space at Björklunden during its early days is well remembered by long-time patrons.

our mission

Drew Shirley and Mark Corkins in 2018’s Much Ado About Nothing, directed by Joseph Hanreddy

Our mission is to provide relevant and entertaining productions of the works of William Shakespeare and other classical and contemporary playwrights through artistic excellence in both the conception and performance of our plays, and to enhance the theatrical experience through interactive educational opportunities designed for audiences of all ages, thereby creating a common ground to experience these celebrated traditions.

Welcome to Björklunden On behalf of the Björklunden staff and Lawrence University, welcome to the garden amphitheater and Door Shakespeare!

Björklunden* is a 425-acre estate bequeathed to Lawrence University in 1963 by Donald and Winifred Boynton of Highland Park, Illinois. Winifred designed and built many of the wonderful structures on the property, including the Chapel. You may tour the Chapel on Mondays and Wednesdays from 1:00–4:00 p.m.

Since 1980, Lawrence has offered a series of adult education seminars at Björklunden, interrupted only by a fire that destroyed the estate’s main lodge in 1993. In 1996, construction was completed on a new and larger facility and the Björklunden seminar program resumed.

Following an expansion project in 2007, the splendid two-story, 37,000-square-foot lodge contains a great room, multi-purpose and seminar rooms, dining room and kitchen, as well as 22 guest rooms.

This magnificent, year-round facility also allows Lawrence University’s mission as an undergraduate liberal arts college and conservatory of music to extend to its northern campus through a popular series of weekend student-faculty seminars, which have been running since 1996.

We are happy to have Door Shakespeare as an independent, professional theatre company on our campus. Please enjoy the grounds and have a wonderful time at tonight’s production.

As Winifred Boynton said of her beloved summer home: “Far removed from confusion and aggression, it offers a sanctuary for all.”

May it be so for you as well.

Sincerely, the Björklunden staff, Mark Breseman, Kim Eckstein, Mark Franke, Alex Baldschun, Lynda Pietruszka, Jeff Campbell Full name is Björklunden vid Sjön, Swedish for “Birch Grove at the Lake” (but commonly translated to “Birch Forest by the Water”). Björklunden is pronounced “bee-york-lun-den.”

A Note From the Chairman of the Board dear friends, On behalf of the Board of Directors of Door Shakespeare, it is my pleasure to welcome you to our 2019 season in the beautiful gardens of Björklunden.

We are happy to have many returning favorites back with our company this year, while also welcoming several new faces to our stage. We continue to be honored that such talented individuals from around the country come to Door County each summer and present the immortal words of William Shakespeare in this wonderful location.

This season signals a first for Door Shakespeare—Henry V. To bring one of Shakespeare’s history plays to life underneath the stars of the Door County sky, here on the shores of Lake Michigan, presents an irresistible opportunity to demonstrate the growth and development of our company. Henry V paired with The Merry Wives of Windsor is sure to make for yet another enchanting season.

The history of Door Shakespeare dates back to 1995. 2020 will mark Door Shakespeare’s 25th anniversary—full of more excitement and celebration!

Of course, all of this could not be possible without your continued support.

We thank you for volunteering, for buying tickets, for your financial and in-kind contributions. Without you we wouldn’t be here today. We ask for your ongoing support as we move toward our 25th anniversary. Thank you.

We ask much so that we can continue to bring you superb classical theater in a magical setting.

With sincere thanks, Sam Perlman hair, Board of Directors, C Door Shakespeare, Inc.

Welcome welcome to door shakespeare’s 2019 summer season at magical björklunden.

We were so inspired by our audiences last year, that we have added two additional performance weeks this summer!

In addition to The Merry Wives of Windsor and Henry V, and our additional summer offerings of Wine Nights, Will in the Woods, and Shake it up Saturdays, we are pleased to announce new fall/winter programming.

the door shakespeare reading series

The Door Shakespeare Reading Series is free and open to the public, and will feature many of your favorite Door Shakespeare actors from productions past and present, as well as other guest artists. Our current schedule* includes: Red Velvet by Lolita Chakrabarti Monday, September 16 at 7 pm, Vail Hall at Björklunden

“Theatre Royal, Covent Garden, 1833. Edmund Kean, the greatest actor of his generation, has collapsed on stage whilst playing Othello. A young black American actor has been asked to take over the role. But as the public riot in the streets over the abolition of slavery, how will the cast, critics and audience react to the revolution taking place in the theatre?

Lolita Chakrabarti’s play creates imagined experiences based on the little-known, but true, story of Ira Aldridge, an African-American actor who, in the nineteenth century, built an incredible reputation on the stages of London and Europe.” —Samuel French, Inc. How Shakespeare Won the West by Richard Nelson Monday, October 14 at 7pm, Vail Hall at Björklunden “Based on a true story, the play tells the story of a ragtag troupe of actors as they head West during the Gold Rush, seeking fortune and fame and performing Shakespeare for enthusiastic ’49ers. But with stiff competition, romantic entanglements, and an Indian chief who sees himself in King Lear, their ambitious cross-country adventure is complicated by the teeming challenges and glories of the new American frontier. Embracing elements of Shakespearean comedy and American vaudeville, How Shakespeare Won the West is a jubilant celebration of the human spirit.” —Broadway Play Publishing, Inc.

Welcome Holidays on Ice by David Sedaris December 16 & 23, 2019 at 7pm, Vail Hall at Björklunden Select essays from the David Sedaris classic, Holidays on Ice, return once again to Door Shakespeare as an alternative to more mainstream holiday fare. Door Shakespeare’s producing artistic director, Michael Stebbins, is also the performer, and has been sharing Sedaris’ writing and producing his works for a number of years. Stebbins says, “My wish, Door Shakespeare’s wish, and I think Mr. Sedaris’ hope, is that we’ll continue to find the humor in the holiday and in the everyday.”

Adult content and language. Parental discretion is advised.

Festive holiday adornments (silver bell sweaters, strap-on antlers, Rudolph noses, and season-appropriate jewelry) are also advised.

door shakespeare youth production

We are also extremely excited to announce our Door Shakespeare Youth Production, which will be directed by managing director, Amy Ensign, and feature Door County youth in a fully-staged production!

Something’s Rotten in the State of Denmark by William Shakespeare and Joseph Wallace December 13, 14, & 15, 2019, Vail Hall at Björklunden.

“At the dress rehearsal for Hamlet, young Tom is utterly exhausted from playing the title character. He closes his eyes for just a minute and opens the audiences’ to a version of the Bard’s masterpiece never before imagined. Uncle/Father Claudius can’t seem to remember anyone’s name and Hamlet’s dead-but biological father exhibits multiple personalities reminiscent of other famous literary phantoms. From the mysterious council of rabbits to Hamlet covering up Polonius’ death with ventriloquism, this comedy is sure to be a hit with the whole family!’ —Samuel French, Inc.

we love what we do, and we want to share that love with you year-round!

You inspire us, you motivate us, and we thank you.

Until we meet again, please tell your friends about Door Shakespeare, and follow us on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter.

“…let us…on your imaginary forces work.” —Henry V

Playgoer’s Guide the merry wives of windsor Synopsis

In The Merry Wives of Windsor, disreputable Sir John Falstaff pursues two housewives, Mistress Ford and Mistress Page, who outwit him instead.

Meanwhile, three suitors seek the hand of Anne Page, Mistress Page’s daughter.

From the first quarto edition of The Merry Wives of Windor, printed in 1602.

Falstaff hopes to seduce the wives so he can gain access to their husbands’ wealth. Ford learns of Falstaff’s approaches and is consumed by jealousy. In disguise, he befriends Falstaff to learn about Mistress Ford’s behavior. The wives, however, trick Falstaff and Ford.

As Falstaff visits Mistress Ford, Mistress Page announces that Ford is coming. Falstaff hides in a basket of dirty laundry and is thrown in the river.

Another visit ends similarly: Falstaff disguises himself as “the fat woman of Brentford,” whom Ford hates. Ford beats “her” in anger. Finally, Falstaff is lured to a comical nighttime rendezvous where all of Windsor comes together, Falstaff is publicly humiliated, and Ford admits his folly. Anne marries her chosen suitor, Fenton.

Playgoer’s Guide henry v Synopsis

Henry V begins at the English court, where the young king is persuaded that he has a claim to the throne of France. When the French dauphin, or heir apparent, insults him by sending him tennis balls, Henry launches his military expedition to France.

Before departing, Henry learns that three of his nobles have betrayed him, and he orders their execution. Meanwhile, his old tavern companions grieve over Sir John Falstaff’s death, and then leave for France.

Henry and his army lay siege to the French town of Harfleur, which surrenders. The Princess of France, Katherine, starts to learn English, but the French nobles are sure of success against Henry. Instead, Henry’s forces win a great victory at Agincourt.

After a brief return to England, Henry comes back to France to claim his rights and to set up his marriage to Princess Katherine. The play’s epilogue points out that Henry will die young and that England will as a result lose most of his French territories.

Playgoer’s Guide william shakespeare

A Biography · Courtesy of Folger Shakespeare Library William Shakespeare was probably born on about April 23, 1564, the date that is traditionally given for his birth. He was John and Mary Shakespeare’s oldest surviving child. Growing up as the big brother of the family, William had three younger brothers and two younger sisters.

Their father, John Shakespeare, was a leatherworker, a prosperous businessman, as well as Stratford’s alderman, later, bailiff—much like a mayor. He married Mary Arden.

William, as the son of a leading Stratford citizen, almost certainly attended Stratford’s grammar school. Like all such schools, its curriculum consisted of an intense emphasis on the Latin classics, including memorization, writing, and acting classic Latin plays. Shakespeare most likely attended until about age 15.

In late 1582, William Shakespeare married Anne Hathaway. She was already expecting their first-born child, Susanna. Anne grew up just outside Stratford in the village of Shottery. In early 1585, the couple had twins, Judith and Hamnet. completing the family. In the years ahead, Anne and the children lived in Stratford while Shakespeare worked in London.

The first definite mention of Shakespeare is in 1592 as an established London actor and playwright, mocked by a contemporary as a “Shake-scene.” The same writer alludes to one of Shakespeare’s earliest history plays, Henry VI, Part 3. The next year, in 1593, Shakespeare published a long poem, Venus and Adonis. For more than two decades, Shakespeare had multiple roles in the London theater as an actor, playwright, and, in time, a business partner in a major acting company, the Lord Chamberlain’s Men (renamed the King’s Men in 1603).

He died on April 23, 1616—the traditional date of his birthday, though his precise birthdate is unknown. Shakespeare died on April 23, 1616, and was buried on April 25, 1616, in Holy Trinity Church, Stratford-upon-Avon.

Playgoer’s Guide

Q+A

Michael Stebbins, Door Shakespeare’s Producing Artistic Director, sat down with Henry V director, Matt Daniels, and The Merry Wives of Windsor director, Marcella Kearns.

Michael “Share with us how these two plays are connected, as I think they are an intriguing pairing. Many people think that The Merry Wives of Windsor is a comedy and Henry V is a history, so they couldn’t possibly be connected. I think it’s really interesting that there are characters that appear in both plays—crossover, if you will.”

Matt “Well, although Henry V is a history play, it has plenty of comedy to go around!

I think the biggest connection is the character of Sir John Falstaff, who was one of Henry’s closest friends back before he became king. Henry cut s Falstaff out of his life at the end of Henry IV Part II. Henry V deals with some of that aftermath as Falstaff’s friends are drafted to fight for Henry, and he has to deal with his old life colliding with the new one.

Falstaff himself doesn’t appear in Henry V, though his presence is keenly felt in a few scenes because many of his companions in The Merry Wives of Windsor do find their way into Henry V. In Henry V, all of Falstaff’s companions in The Merry Wives of Windsor are drafted into service for Henry’s war against the French. So Bardolph, Nym, and Pistol are all there, along with Robin, Falstaff’s page, and Mistress Quickly. Several earls and dukes cross over between plays as they were still historically active in multiple reigns. In the case of Falstaff and his companions, these characters are not really historically accurate, and as such, Shakespeare was free to do with them as he pleased.

Beyond that, there are several thematic resonances, they both have Welsh and French characters, and there is evidence that they were written with a couple of years of one another.”

Marcella “Regarding those thematic resonances: Some of the most striking include what it means to come together as a people with differences for a common purpose, the boon of friendship and love, and tenacity in the face of great odds.”

Michael “Shakespeare wrote these two plays during a very prolific time in his writing career. If he did indeed write these plays between 1597 and 1599, he was also writing, or had already penned, Henry IV Part II, Much Ado About Nothing, As You Like It, and Julius Caesar. Door Shakespeare is visiting Henry V for the first time, and the last time we shared The Merry Wives of Windsor with audiences was in 2004. Marcella and Matt, thank you for guiding these plays to the stage, and for being with us this summer.”

Playgoer’s Guide

Who

is Scott Mckenna Campbell? Door Shakespeare audiences have been hearing the music of Scott McKenna Campbell—actor, composer, and musical director—for the past three years. As music is such an integral part of our productions, we asked Mr. Campbell to tell us a bit about his process, as it pertains to Door Shakespeare.

“Throughout my three seasons composing and directing music for Door Shakespeare, I’ve been privileged to help support directors in creating six all-acoustic, wholly original, musical soundscapes for the company. I take music in theatrical productions—and particularly in Shakespeare productions—seriously, because I believe that thoughtful music composition is one of the most effective ways to bridge the gap between older texts and modern audiences. Shakespeare festivals are, in many ways, the perfect laboratories for thinking about how music can complement classical plays in production.

As a PhD candidate at UW-Madison, I love to incorporate research into my composition work, but much of the work for Door Shakespeare really begins with the rehearsal process itself. The condensed rehearsal schedule at Door means that problems get solved on the fly as new discoveries are made. As such, countless actor-musicians and collaborators have left their fingerprints on each of the dozens of songs and musical moments that I have coordinated for Door Shakespeare. The opportunity to develop new compositions alongside collaborative actor-musicians at Door Shakespeare ensures that no two shows sound wholly alike. While writing music can be a solitary job, making music—like making the plays that these songs support—belongs in the hands of the entire troupe.

Composing for performances beneath Björklunden’s incredible maple tree has provided me a few new insights into the work of theatrical songwriting. I’ve learned that composing demands that the ensemble search out the songs, and sounds, and lyrics that belong to both the play text and the specific production.

I’ve learned that outdoor theatre truly sings when backed by acoustic instruments played by visible onstage performers. I’ve learned that the connections that audience members form with onstage musicians gives performances an intimacy that films, and television, and most other theatre forms cannot. Working at Door Shakespeare demands specificity, clarity, and heart in reaching an audience that is never more than an arm’s length away from the performers.”

We’re so glad that you’ve decided to join us for a few new songs beneath a summer sky.
