NOTES ON THE PLAY

By Dramaturg Alexandra Harbold

I

n a 2007 essay for the New Yorker, Paul Rudnick recounts how he came across a listing for “a medieval duplex” while apartment hunting in New York City in the late eighties. Upon seeing the apartment, he discovered that it had once been the rented residence of legendary actor John Barrymore.

Barrymore, “The Great Profile,” that “Olympian Hamlet, devastating seducer, and everyone’s favorite scoundrel,” had refashioned the fourth floor brownstone apartment as his own Gothic hideaway (replete with theatrical plaster and ironwork, wooden beams, and stained glass), christening it “The Alchemist’s Corner.”

Barrymore had hired a carpenter to build a staircase up to the tinned roof. He then stole the man’s tools, urging him to abjure his rules, square, and level as he made his measurements and calculations; Barrymore wanted the resulting

Redefining the best care possible We were the first in Utah to utilize a new technique that more precisely removes breast cancer.

We implanted one of the first wireless pacemakers in the nation. We created the world’s largest cardiovascular database used to study the genetics behind heart disease. And these are just a few of the many innovations happening at Intermountain Healthcare. We work hard to provide great care and just as hard to improve it.

NOTES ON THE PLAY architecture to be as rough-hewn and poetic as possible. He then turned to landscaping the roof, sans thought about drainage or the weight of the 35 tons of topsoil he had distributed onto the rooftop.

Barrymore planted wisteria, cherry trees, and grape vines, and installed a fountain, flagstone paths, and beehives, creating his very own penthouse estate.

Paul Rudnick, inspired by his habitation under Barrymore’s “bastard Jacobean roof ” began to dig into the actor’s history and discovered that Barrymore had resided in the brownstone just prior to his celebrated run of Hamlet. Rudnick began to write a novel about a young television star from LA who has moved into Barrymore’s former home just as he is about to play the Dane at Shakespeare in the Park. It quickly became apparent to Rudnick that the novel should be a play. Says the playwright, “Is my apartment haunted? Of course it is. The ghost wrote the play. If you dislike it, blame him. If you enjoy yourself, then by all means shower me with compliments, and I’ll be happy to pass them on.”

JOHN BARRYMORE

By Dramaturg Alexandra Harbold

(1882-1942) Born John Sydney Blythe, Barrymore was the youngest child of great comic actress Georgiana Drew Barrymore and British-born stage actor Maurice Barrymore (original name, Herbert Blythe). John and his siblings Ethel and Lionel were the next generation of “the Royal Family of the American Theatre.”

Barrymore resisted going on the stage, instead deciding to pursue a career as a painter. He attended King’s College, the New York’s Art Student League, and worked briefly as an illustrator but was ultimately drawn back to the stage, calling the theatre “the easiest place to earn a decent living.”

Barrymore became a matinee idol, playing rogues, madmen, and lovers in silent films, talkies, and on stage (and often seducing his leading ladies on screen and off). In 1922, he undertook Hamlet, the creative endeavor which would define his legacy.

12

For months, Barrymore studied intensively with voice coach Margaret Carrington; she advised Barrymore to disregard all precedents and to explore Shakespeare’s play as a modern script never before performed.

Barrymore described Hamlet as “a normal, healthy, lusty young fellow who simply got into a mess that was too thick for him…He was a great fencer, an athlete, a man who led an active, healthy life. How can you make a sickly half-wit out of a man like that? Can you imagine how this quick-witted young fencer made love to Ophelia in the Elsinore garden?

Polonius was a wise father, when he warned Ophelia to watch out for that fellow.” With typical irreverence, Barrymore told producer Arthur Hopkins, “I want him to be so male that when I come out on stage they can hear my balls clank.”

John Barrymore’s Hamlet ran for 101 performances, surpassing Edwin Booth’s record, and could have run much longer. The night of his farewell performance in New York, the theatre box office was forced to turn away over 1,000 people.

WHO’S WHO J. PAUL BOEHMER (Barrymore) attended his first Shakespearean play while in high school; he knew then that he was destined to become the classically trained actor he is today. Graduating with a Masters’ Degree, Paul was cast as Hamlet by the very stage actor who inspired his career path. A nod from the Universe he’d chosen right! Paul has worked on Broadway and extensively in regional theatre.

Coinciding with another of his passions, sci-fi, Paul has been cast in various roles in many episodes of Star Trek. Paul’s love of literature and learning led him to his work as a narrator for Books on Tape, his latest endeavor. This will be his third appearance at Pioneer Theatre Company. Paul is married to the love of his life, Offir, and they live in Los Angeles with their two midnight-rambling tomcats Dread & David.
