WELCOME Dear Friends,

O

at Playhouse Square

n behalf of our artists, staff and Board of Trustees, welcome to Great Lakes Theater’s 55th season! Our mission, “to bring the pleasure, power and relevance of classic theater to the widest possible audience,” guides our mainstage productions as well as our educational programming. It is our belief that theater holds the capacity to illuminate truth and enduring values, celebrate and challenge human nature and actions, and provide our student audiences with a glimpse of a broader world and the wellspring of learning made possible through the arts.

This finale to our 2016-17 season is our first-ever production of Stuart Ross’ beloved jukebox musical, Forever Plaid. Resident Director Victoria Bussert brings her usual flair to a production starring four rising stars of the musical theater whose “angelic voices” will transport you to a nostalgic world of the 1950s.

I encourage you to read through your program and look around the theater tonight. You will see the names of many friends, partners, corporations and foundations whose generous support makes all of this possible. We hope that you will consider joining these donors by becoming a member of the Great Lakes Theater family with your gift!

We extend our special appreciation to The Kulas Foundation, which has sponsored our musical productions for the last several years as “The Kulas Musical Theater Series at Great Lakes Theater.” We are also grateful to the First Energy Foundation for their generous support of Forever Plaid as a production sponsor.

Additionally, we thank all of our sponsors and annual members, with continued appreciation to our partners of over 30 years at Playhouse Square and the tireless efforts of our Board of Trustees, dedicated administrative staff, gifted artists and the tremendous generosity of this community!

I hope to see you in our audience again in 2017-18 for our extraordinary upcoming season.

ABOUT GREAT LAKES THEATER

T

he mission of Great Lakes Theater (GLT), through its main stage productions and its education programs, is to bring the pleasure, power and relevance of classic theater to the widest possible audience.

Since the company’s inception in 1962, programming has been rooted in Shakespeare, but GLT’s commitment to great plays spans the breadth of all cultures, forms of theater and time periods –– including the 20th century –– and provides for the occasional mounting of new works that complement the classical repertoire.

Classic theater holds the capacity to illuminate truth and enduring values, celebrate and challenge human nature and actions, revel in eloquent language, and preserve the traditions of diverse cultures and generate communal spirit. On its main stage and through its education programs, GLT seeks to create visceral, immediate experiences for participants, asserting theater’s historic role as a vehicle for advancing the common good and helping people make the joyful and meaningful connections between classic plays and their own lives.

The company’s commitment to classic theater is magnified in the educational programs that surround its productions. Since its inception, GLT has had a strong presence in area schools, bringing students to the theater for matinee performances and sending specially trained actor-teachers to the schools for weeklong residencies developed to explore classic drama from a theatrical point of view. GLT is equally dedicated to enhancing the theater experience for adult audiences. To this end, GLT regularly serves as the catalyst for community events and programs in the arts and humanities that illuminate the plays on its stage.

Great Lakes Theater is one of only a handful of American theaters that have stayed the course as a classic theater. As GLT moves into a new era with a permanent home in the Hanna Theatre, the company reaffirms its belief in the power of partnership, its determination to make this community a better place in which to live, and its commitment to ensure the legacy of classic theater in Cleveland.

NEWS & NOTES Anniversary Accolades

at Playhouse Square

As we commence the final production in our 55th season, we are proud to commemorate two other amazing anniversaries. The 2016-17 season marks Charles Fee’s 15th year of helming Great Lakes Theater as producing artistic director. In addition, Victoria Bussert celebrates her 30th season as a resident director. We look forward to charting many more anniversary accolades and memorable future productions in the decades to come. But in this moment, we say “bravo” and “thank you” to Charlie and Vicky for their extraordinary contributions to the legacy of Great Lakes Theater.

Road Trip

Spotlight on Support

Play’s the Thing

This month, the artists, technicians, sets, costumes and props from our recent productions of Wait Until Dark and Hamlet begin a 2,000 mile journey. They’re headed west to Boise, Idaho, to commence the 41st season of Idaho Shakespeare Festival — our cross-country producing partner since 2002. The team will make the trip back to Cleveland this fall with two brand-new productions in tow to open our 56th year — The Hunchback of Notre Dame and A Midsummer Night’s Dream — after successful Boise runs.

Join us in wishing the entire company safe travels and Mountain Time Zone standing ovations in the meantime.

Donald and Anne Palmer are classic theater aficionados who have traveled the world to see great live productions. The Palmers also appreciate and support classic theater right here in Cleveland as generous financial contributors to Great Lakes Theater. In 2014, the Palmers offered to help create a special new section in our playbills. The Spotlight: An Insider’s Guide section now includes a variety of informative and entertaining articles designed to provide historical context and behind-thescenes insights into the company’s Shakespeare productions. We thank Donald and Anne Palmer for their vision and support to enhance the patron experience!

Play is the thing at Camp Theater!, Great Lakes Thea­ ter’s summer camp for students ages 4­ -18 at BereaMidpark High School, June 12-23. Students discover the stage in a safe and supportive environment while engaging with GLT’s professional teaching artists, gain confidence performing scene work, work as a team in Club Improv and learn valuable skills in dance, stage makeup and combat. There’s never a dull moment! For complete information or to register, visit GreatLakesTheater.org.

SPOTLIGHT ON FOREVER PLAID

S

at Playhouse Square

tuart Ross, book writer and creator of Forever Plaid, was just a boy of five in 1956 when his older brother went off to college and left him a collection of vinyl 45s. It included The Four Freshman, The Four Aces and The Four Lads. His parents also owned … wait for it … a diner! Who better to write a 1950s jukebox musical about a foursome of aspiring clean-cut, close-harmony singing, plaid-wearing young men?

Ross has written us the story of Frankie, Smudge, Sparky and Jinx, a quartet returning from the afterlife (they had been killed in a collision with a bus full of Catholic girls) to play their dream gig. With 28 songs, including “Three Coins in the Fountain,” “Lady of Spain” and “Shangri-La,” we’re transported to a time where four-part boy bands harmonized their way from gig to gig. The tightly arranged vocals are lush, romantic and swoon-worthy. It’s a style that personified romance and innocence, a style that both parents and kids listened to together in the 1950s.

It’s important to remember that Forever Plaid is not a spoof or parody. It is truly earnest and sincere. It just happens to be funny along the way. There’s an innocence and a charm in the notion that four high school chums might rehearse in the family basement, might talk of young love and squabble about dance moves and harmony parts. The true joy of a jukebox musical is that you could strip the set and lights, and enjoy a concert of 28 nostalgic tunes that transport you to a bygone era of music. Forever Plaid is no exception.

—D ave Pepin, Music Director, Forever Plaid, Idaho Shakespeare Festival, 2016

Dedication: Forever Plaid is dedicated to the “good guys;” to the guys who wheeled the projector carts, for the AV club; to the guys who saved their allowance to give their parents a special night on the town for their anniversary; to the guys who carried an extra handkerchief; to the guys who never went beyond first base, and if they did, they didn’t tell anyone. We Salute You!

MTI works directly with the composers, lyricists and book writers of these musicals to provide official scripts, musical materials and dynamic theatrical resources to more than 70,000 professional, community and school theaters in the US and more than 60 countries worldwide.

MTI is particularly dedicated to educational theater, and has created special collections to meet the needs of various types of performers and audiences. MTI’s Broadway Junior shows are 30- and 60-minute musicals for performance by elementary and middle school-aged performers, while MTI’s School Editions are musicals annotated for performance by high school students.

Stick around after Saturday (non-opening night) evening performances to meet and mingle with the cast and crew of the show in the Hanna Theatre lounge. The Hanna’s bar is open ninety minutes after the show on Nightcap Nights!

STRATEGIC ALLIANCE In 2002, Great Lakes Theater (Cleveland, Ohio) and Idaho Shakespeare Festival (Boise, Idaho) conceived a unique, strategic producing alliance designed to maximize return on organizational investments, increase production efficiencies, create long term work opportunities for artists and share best practices. In 2010, Lake Tahoe Shakespeare Festival (Incline Village, Nevada) joined the collaborative — further contributing to the momentum of the revolutionary producing prototype's success. The long term results have been remarkable. The alliance's three independent, 501c3 regional theaters have shared over 50 jointly-created productions — each featuring long term, multi-city employment opportunities for artistic company members. This revolutionary producing model has realized its vision and exceeded expectations while simultaneously resulting in notable audience growth for each company.

PLAYHOUSE SQUARE HISTORY HANNA THEATRE Trivia

at Playhouse Square

Since its opening in 1921, the Hanna Theatre has been the site of two world premieres: Rodgers and Hammerstein’s Me and Juliette in 1953 and, in 1974, Odyssey by Michel Legrand starring Yul Brynner. Another first occurred in 1937, when Gilbert and Sullivan’s first Cleveland-staged opera was performed at the Hanna by the D’Oyly Carte Company from London.

Kennedy’s Cabaret Trivia The bar in Kennedy’s (the lower level cabaret space accessed by way of the Ohio Theatre lobby), might be familiar to Cleveland oldtimers. The former home of the bar was the Elegant Hog Saloon when the tavern was located on Buckeye Road.

The GE Chandelier Officially the world’s largest outdoor chandelier, the 20-foot tall GE Chandelier is adorned with 4200 crystals. To find out how it was made, visit the Playhouse Square YouTube channel.

What Would It Cost to Build Them Today?

Even though the Connor Palace is not the largest of the Playhouse Square venues, it was the most costly to build ($3.5 million) by the time it premiered on Nov. 6, 1922.

The largest theater, the State, (opened Feb. 5, 1921) was built at a cost of $2 million; the Ohio (Feb. 14, 1921) also cost $2 million, and the Allen’s costs totaled $1.9 million when it opened April 1, 1921. (Exact building costs for the Hanna Theatre — which opened March 28, 1921 — have yet to be uncovered.)

World’s Longest Lobby Explained

28

In 1920 as the Loew’s chain anticipated building in the area that would come to be known as Playhouse Square, it was discovered there wasn’t sufficient room to build two theaters side by side in the available space.

Since it was important that the proposed theater marquees be located on Euclid Avenue, an architectural plan was devised. Even though the State Theatre would be completed and open 21 months before the Connor Palace, it was decided to build the State behind the Connor Palace. This led to the construction of the State’s 320-footlong lobby, reported to be the longest theater lobby in the world. The Ohio Theatre would then be built on the other side of the State, giving all three theaters the desired Euclid Avenue marquee frontage.

CONNOR PALACE: A Three Stooges Favorite In his biography, Moe Howard & The Three Stooges, Moe Howard wrote about the plight of dressing rooms on the road. Although dressing rooms were usually spartan at best and a hovel at worst, Howard had nothing but praise for the Connor Palace (known then as the Palace Theatre): “This theater was built without missing a thought for the actors’ comfort.

The Palace was beautiful not only outside and in the auditorium, but also backstage. Most impressive was the second floor, which sported a regulation-size pool table, chess tables, comfortable chairs, an ice machine and soft drinks, playing cards, cigars — it had all the facilities of a private club. In the basement was a laundry room. There was even a nursery for youngsters.

Best of all were the dressing rooms, heavily carpeted with mirrored walls and make-up tables. They had everything in them, right down to padded coat hangers.”

Say Goodnight, Gracie Legendary comedy duo George Burns and Gracie Allen were married in Cleveland January 7, 1926 during their Playhouse Square booking. A brief, early-morning ceremony was performed by a Justice of the Peace, after which the newlyweds checked into the Statler Hotel. George’s older brother and his family (who lived in Akron) came up to Cleveland that afternoon to celebrate with the couple before George and Gracie returned to their room to honeymoon.

At 2 a.m. the phone rang. It was fellow comedian Jack Benny calling from Omaha.

Immediately recognizing Jack’s voice, George cut him off saying, “Send up two orders of ham and eggs,” then hung up.

Ten minutes later the phone rang. It was Benny again. This time George interrupted his friend with, “You forgot the ketchup!” and hung up on Benny a second time. Half an hour later came a knock at the door. It was a waiter with two orders of ham and eggs. Trying to keep a straight face the waiter announced, “Compliments of Mr. Jack Benny from Omaha!”

As George liked to tell it, the newlyweds ate their Benny breakfast at 2:30 a.m., and, when they were done, Gracie said, “George, this was the high point of the night!”

The STATE THEATRE Murals

Performers Help Restore Playhouse Square During her 1996 run of Kiss of the Spider Woman, legendary Broadway star Chita Rivera was given a guided tour of Playhouse Square. As she followed her tour guide into the State auditorium, an excited Chita pointed to the mezzanine railing and proudly exclaimed, I helped paint that!

Indeed, she had. In 1984, Chita had last played Playhouse Square when much restoration remained, and during her free time willingly added her brush strokes to the history of the State.

Likewise, Mary Travers of Peter, Paul & Mary

A Change in History?

One of many fascinating items to be found in the book Playhouse Square: An Entertaining History deals with the infamous John Wilkes Booth. Booth performed locally at the old Academy of Music, which was one of the first drama schools in the country and was located at 1371 W. 6th Street.

It was at that Cleveland Academy where he would play his last role prior to performing at Washington D.C.’s Ford Theatre where he would assassinate President Lincoln. (Might history have been changed if the Academy had held over Booth’s play for an extended run?)

CONNOR PALACE Trivia Before the days of clothes dryers, touring performers were often forced to pull stilldamp clothes off the drying line when it was time to pack and leave. During the vaudeville era, the Connor Palace (known then as the Palace) became known as one of the most performer-friendly venues in the country because of its many backstage amenities, one of which included a drying room. In this large room, wet clothes could be hung and hot air was continuously blown into the area to hasten the drying time.

GreatLakesTheater.org

The four murals on the walls of the State Theatre lobby were painted by American Modernist James Daugherty (1890-1974), whose work hangs in the Museum of Modern Art, the Whitney Museum and the Smithsonian. One of the murals, The Spirit of Cinema, was featured on the cover of Life magazine on February 20, 1970. It was that national attention that became the convincing argument to save the venue from the wrecking ball. Destruction of the State would also have meant the loss of the original historic Daugherty murals, since they are painted directly on the walls. Today they are the only Daugherty works which remain at the original site where they were painted.

fame also performed at the State Theatre several times during its early restoration. She became so enthusiastic over the restoration process that she would climb the scaffolding and help paint the ceiling. Like Chita, on a return visit, Mary pointed out the ceiling area that she had helped paint (just-above-and-to-the-left of the Men’s Room doorway on the mezzanine).

Singers’ Secrets Repeat three times: Performer packs pickle for perfect pipes. Singer Anita Baker surprised backstage workers during her sold out shows by keeping an ample supply of pickle juice in her dressing room — using it to gargle! (No report as to whether Anita acquired the pickle practice during her two pregnancies.) Likewise, another unusual gargling agent was the preference of singer Millie Jackson who required a certain imported beer as her gargle-of-choice.
