MISSION
Rooted in the heart of Indiana, Indiana Repertory Theatre is committed to building a vital, vibrant, and informed community through the transformational power of live theatre. The Indiana Repertory Theatre produces inclusive, topquality, professional theatre and community programming to engage, surprise, challenge, and entertain members of the whole community.
VISION
The Indiana Repertory Theatre will welcome the whole community, becoming a place of belonging for an ever-expanding audience of all ages and backgrounds seeking meaningful and enjoyable experiences. Using theatre as a springboard for both personal reflection and community discussion, our productions and programs will inspire our neighbors to learn about themselves and others. As the largest non-profit theatre in the state of Indiana, IRT’s goal is to help make Indiana a dynamic home of cultural expression, economic vitality, and a diverse and engaged citizenry.
SUSTAINING A PROFESSIONAL, RESPECTFUL, INCLUSIVE, & CREATIVE ATMOSPHERE
• Producing diverse plays, we strive to provide insight and celebrate human relationships through the unique vision of the playwright.
• Employing professional artists of the highest quality, we nurture an environment that allows them to grow and thrive on our stages and in our communities.
• We foster a creative environment where arts, education, corporate, civic, and cultural organizations collaborate to benefit our community.
INCLUSION & BELONGING
• Our community thrives when diverse voices and peoples gather to make, watch, and support theatre.
• It is our responsibility as a community resource to open our doors wide, welcoming all to our high-quality, relevant art.
• To be an inclusive organization we must seek knowledge and understanding to identify discriminatory practices and increase cultural awareness in collaboration with, and learning directly from historically excluded communities.
PRUDENT STEWARDSHIP OF OUR RESOURCES
• As a public-benefit organization, we focus on community service, artistic integrity, and creating a range of ticket prices that allow all segments of our community to attend.
• Fiscal responsibility and financial security fuel our institutional sustainability.
• To ensure institutional longevity, we continue to grow our endowment fund as a resource for future development.
Photography of the set without actors and with proper credit to the scenic and lighting designers is permitted.
Due to union agreements, photography, video, and audio recording are not permitted during the performance. The videotaping of productions is a violation of United States Copyright Law and an actionable Federal Offense.
ACKNOWLEDGING THE LAND
Every community owes its existence and vitality to generations from around the world who contributed their hopes, dreams, and energy to making the history that led to this moment. Some were brought here or removed from here against their will, some were drawn to leave their distant homes in hope of a better life, and some have lived on this land for more generations than can be counted. Acknowledgment of the land which the IRT now occupies is critical to building mutual respect and connection across all barriers of heritage.
We want to acknowledge that what we now call Indiana is on the ancestral lands of many indigenous peoples including the Miami, Piankashaw, Wea, Potawatomi, Kickapoo, Delaware, and Shawnee. We pay respects to their elders past and present. Please take a moment to consider the many legacies of displacement, migration, violence, and settlement that bring us together here today.
This land acknowledgment was created in collaboration with Scott Shoemaker, PhD (Miami Tribe of Oklahoma). Portions of this acknowledgment come from the U.S. Department of Arts and Culture (usdac.us).
ACKNOWLEDGING OUR BUILDING’S HISTORY
The Indiana Repertory Theatre moved to its current site on Washington Street in 1980, renovating and reopening a building that had been shuttered for nearly a decade.
The historic Indiana Theatre was built in 1927, a time when the shameful practice of racial segregation was the standard in movie theatres and public buildings across the United States. The Indiana Theatre building was originally segregated and at some point in its history this practice ceased. Many Indiana residents and their families’ heritage stories recall being treated as less than equal citizens in this building, with some even being barred from entering. We cannot erase this history.
We honor and respect all those who have faced discrimination and harm in this building. We strive every day to make the IRT a place that welcomes all people.
INDIANA REPERTORY THEATRE:
Welcoming the whole community
We strive to celebrate and serve the diverse people and cultures that make up our whole community. The IRT is committed to creating and maintaining a theatre that is inclusive, safe, respectful, and accessible.
Whether you have been coming for years or are here for the first time—welcome to your Theatre!
VALUES
• It is our responsibility as a community resource to open our doors wide, eliminate historical barriers, and welcome all to our high-quality, relevant art.
• To be an inclusive organization, we must increase cultural awareness of different backgrounds and experiences.
• IRT thrives when diverse voices and peoples gather to make, watch, learn from, and support live theatre.
COMMITMENTS
• We will represent and engage the diverse people, experiences, cultures, and communities of central Indiana.
• We will focus on inclusive hiring practices and foster a culture of Belonging for artists, staff, board, and vendors.
• We will continue and deepen our commitment to Belonging through training for all board and staff.
• We will be accessible to all audiences, inviting those who have been unheard or unseen in the past.

Dear Audiences,
As we open the curtain on our 2025–2026 Season, I find myself marveling at the power of theatre to gather us once again, to quicken our hearts, and to remind us of our shared humanity. Each season is a journey—and this one invites us to laugh, to sing, to wrestle with history, and to glimpse the extraordinary within the everyday.
We begin with a madcap dash through mystery and mayhem in Alfred Hitchcock’s The 39 Steps, a delicious whirl of suspense, romance, and comedy. Music then lifts us into the soulful world of two icons with Marie and Rosetta, celebrating the women who changed the sound of America forever. Winter brings the return of our beloved holiday tradition, Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol, a story whose light never fades.
In the New Year, we bring you the great American playwright August Wilson’s Joe Turner’s Come and Gone, a play of migration, memory, and the search for belonging. Next up is the Pulitzer Prize-winning English, a contemporary masterpiece that explores language, identity, and the courage to speak one’s truth. And we close with the soaring, heart-stirring musical ComeFromAway, a true story of generosity and grace when the world stood still.
Together, these six works form a season that is as exhilarating as it is profound—stories that invite us to laugh heartily, feel deeply, and to imagine more boldly the world we share.
To our longtime audiences, who have walked with us through many seasons: thank you for your steadfast belief in the power of live theatre. To those new to the IRT: welcome—we are so glad you’ve joined us, and we hope you will find meaning and pleasure in your time with us. To our extraordinary Board of Directors and Community Ambassadors, whose devotion connects this work to every corner of our city and state: we celebrate you, and we are humbled by your commitment. And to our remarkable donors—individuals, corporations, and philanthropic partners—your generosity fuels this work and ensures that these stories can be told with artistry, excellence, and heart. We could not do this without you.
This season, may you laugh, cry, reflect, and rejoice with us. May the stories on our stage remind you of the stories within your own life, and may we continue to build a more connected, compassionate community—together.
Warmly,
BENJAMIN HANNA, MARGOT LACY ECCLES ARTISTIC DIRECTOR

ALFRED HITCHCOCK, MASTER OF SUSPENSE
by Richard J Roberts, Resident Dramaturg
In a career spanning more than half a century and some 54 feature films, director Alfred Hitchcock created psychological thrillers that blended humor and romance with thrills and chills. Born in London in 1899, he did not remember his childhood as a particularly happy one. His father once punished his young son by sending him to the police station to be locked in a cell for ten minutes; the theme of being unjustly accused is one of the most pervasive in his films (including The 39 Steps). Alfred’s strained relationship with his mother is also echoed in his films, where the protagonist is often dominated by his mother in a relationship
that is either excessively combative or disturbingly indulgent—or both.
After studying engineering and navigation, Hitchcock became a draftsman and advertising artist. Fascinated by photography, he got a job as a designer of title cards for silent movies; five years later, at the age of 23, he was directing his first film. Success did not come until The Lodger (1927), an expressionistic study of murder in foggy London. In 1929 he directed Blackmail, the first British talkie. His best British films were The39Steps (1935) and TheLady Vanishes (1938). In 1939 he signed a 7-year contract with Hollywood producer David O. Selznick and moved to California.
Hitchcock’s first Hollywood film was a Gothic blend of mystery and romance set in a cliff-side English manor house. Rebecca (1940) turned out to be Hitchcock’s only Best Picture Academy Award winner. (Hitchcock himself would be nominated as Best Director five times, but he never won.) Over the next thirty years, Hitchcock developed a distinctive style through such films as Foreign Correspondent (1940), Suspicion (1941), Shadow of a Doubt (1943, his personal favorite of all his films), Spellbound (1945), Notorious (1946), Strangers on a Train (1951), Rear Window (1954), To Catch a Thief (1955), Vertigo (1958, considered by many to be his masterpiece), and NorthbyNorthwest (1959). Even today his name evokes a particular combination of humor, suspense, and romance that has never been equaled. Late in his career, Psycho (1960) and The Birds (1963) were unique pioneers in the horror genre, evoking great terror while showing very little actual violence.
Like Walt Disney, Hitchcock was one of the first filmmakers to understand the power of television. From 1955 to 1965, he hosted Alfred Hitchcock Presents, an anthology series that evoked the same amusingly creepy tone as his feature films. While his cameo appearances in most of his own films had made his face and rotund figure well known, his eccentric delivery of droll yet macabre introductions to this series’ episodes made him not only a celebrity, but a cultural icon. He died in 1980.
Hitchcock’s films draw the viewer in; we feel complicit in the action. The camera moves as the eye moves, casting the filmgoer as a kind of voyeur. Unique angles, framing, and editing techniques are designed to heighten our anxiety and empathy. Themes are frequently drawn from the realm of psychoanalysis, and many situations
are rife with strong sexual undertones. Hitchcock’s plots often feature innocent fugitives on the run from the law, ordinary men who find themselves in extraordinary circumstances. He had a penchant for blonde leading ladies, including Joan Fontaine, Grace Kelly (three films), Eva Marie Sainte, Doris Day, Kim Novak, Janet Leigh, and Tippi Hedren, as well as Madeleine Carroll in The 39 Steps. Other frequent collaborators include Ingrid Bergman (three films), Cary Grant and Jimmy Stewart (four films each), composer Bernard Hermann (eight films), and costume designer Edith Head (eleven films). Today Alfred Hitchcock is considered one of the most influential filmmakers of all time.

THE AUTHORS
JOHN
BUCHAN, NOVELIST
John Buchan (1875–1940) was a Scottish novelist, historian, journalist, and politician. After attending Glasgow and Oxford universities, he practiced as a barrister in London, served as a private secretary to the Governor of Cape Colony in Africa, and later went into publishing. During World War I, he was British Director of Information and Head of Intelligence. After several years as a member of Parliament, he was appointed Governor General of Canada, serving from 1935 to his death. King George V raised him to the peerage as Baron Tweedsmuir. Buchan published his first novel in 1895 and went on to write more than a hundred books, of which the best known is The ThirtyNineSteps (1915). The first of five novels featuring action hero Richard Hannay, The Thirty-Nine Steps is one of the earliest examples of the “man on the run” thriller, a genre that would become very popular with both writers and filmmakers, particularly Alfred Hitchcock.
PATRICK BARLOW, PLAYWRIGHT
Patrick Barlow is a British actor, comedian, and playwright. He was born in Leicester, England, in 1947. His comedic alter ego, Desmond Olivier Dingle, is the founder, artistic director, and chief executive of the National Theatre of Brent, a two-man mock theatre troupe that has performed on stage, television, and radio. (Other performers in the troupe have included Jim Broadbent.) Barlow has written and performed in many National Theatre of Brent productions, including All the World’s a Globe (1987), Desmond Olivier Dingle’s Complete Life and Works of William Shakespeare (1995), and The Arts and How They Was Done (2007). He has had cameo roles in such films as ShakespeareinLove, Notting Hill, Bridget Jones’s Diary, and Nanny McPhee, and has appeared on such diverse television shows as Absolutely Fabulous and Midsomer Murders. Barlow’s stage adaptation of The39Steps premiered in 2005 and has enjoyed long runs in London, on Broadway, and around the world.
