TPAC update Last summer, the TPAC took on our most ambitious inhouse production in history, presenting a professionallevel production of Fiddler on the Roof. In a nearly sold-out run, we were able to produce local musical theatre with a cast and crew of local Tulsa actors, designers and technicians, bringing home-grown quality and artistry to our community.

This summer, we are thrilled to have the opportunity to present Ragtime: The Musical in the same fashion. With an epic story that sweeps through decades, Tony AwardWinning orchestrations, script, and score, it is going to be quite an undertaking, but we are up for the challenge!

We’ve already begun the pre-production, casting and design processes. As the director of the production, I am thrilled to again work with the team of artists and technicians who work full-time here at the TPAC to bring this magical and engaging story to life. Working with some of the most experienced and talented theatre professionals in the region is one of the great joys of my job here at the performing arts center. We truly have the best of the best!

The process began last fall with initial planning meetings, discussing the scope of the aesthetics of the scenic design, visuals, the lighting capacity, the sound necessities and other elements that must be considered well before casting can begin. Our CEO and CFO, Mark and Jen, and I have focused on the scope of the music and choreography as well as the budget to determine how many artists we will be able to hire. Then, I create a matrix of exactly who and what talents are needed to cast the show. It is incredibly specific and detailed, as casting is essential to the show’s success.

Our team here at the TPAC works and meets regularly to make progress in ensuring that when that first rehearsal begins, all the other production elements are in place for a smooth process into tech-week. Opening August 8 for a three-week run, we will be ready to offer you an incredible theatrical experience that will take you on a journey through the story of Ragtime, one of American musical history’s greatest shows (13 Tony Nominations!!!). Don’t miss it!

Q&A with Dear Evan Hansen’s Alex Pharo

Alex Pharo plays the lead, Connor Murphy, in the current North American tour of Dear Evan Hansen, which means Tulsa audiences will be lucky enough to see him when the tour arrives next month. Get a taste of what Alex will be bringing to the stage and what the show means to him.

Q: Tell us about your background.

A: I grew up in Madison, Alabama. All I did was play sports until I was about 13 years old, and then, luckily, my brother got into theatre, and he inspired me to do it, to start acting and singing and all that. For a few years, I just did a lot of community and regional stuff, and this past year I was able to do a professional production in Indianapolis. I submitted for Dear Evan Hansen a couple months before that. Right in the middle of our shows, I found out about a callback.

Luckily, I had a couple of friends who were able to help me set up a virtual callback scenario, so I got to do that. A couple of days after the run was over, I found out about the final callback, which was so crazy. And, yeah, I got to go to New York and do that whole thing. It was such an incredible opportunity, and now here we are.

Q: What part of this story do you relate to?

A: I think the overarching message is that while it can seem you’re so 16

INTERMISSION FEBRUARY 2025

surrounded by people, you can feel so alone. I’ve felt many times where, yeah, I have all these friends and family around me, but I’ve felt so alone. And this show is a great reminder that you are not alone. And that as long as you have the power to reach out to somebody, you can always be found, and you are not alone.

You can be found no matter what. That’s a message I’ve carried with me ever since I first saw the show.

Q: Why do you think the story continues to resonate with today’s audiences?

A: I think it still resonates with audiences because of the final message it sends. You know, there are these really troubling concepts that we deal with, but the overall message is a message of hope, and everyone can find some sort of resonance in that. We’ve been talking about how it’s not for just a specific age of people; it is for many ranges of people.

It is for everybody. You can find so much familiarity in it. Everyone can find that message of hope in it, and that’s why I

think it has been able to capture so many audiences over the years.

Q: What are you looking forward to on tour?

A: Finding cool places to eat. Just the couple of places we have been, there have been some great spots. I’m really looking forward to meeting all the people who resonate with this show. Many of the people I’ve met afterward, I’m right where they are and how they felt about the show. So, I’m just excited to bring this show to people who maybe couldn’t have seen it before. I’m just so excited to start branching out with these people.

Q: Can you talk about what it means to you to be in this show?

A: This was the first musical that I ever listened to. It was what really got me into theatre as a whole. Over the past few weeks, it has been surreal, and I keep telling people I have to pinch myself

because we get to do this show that is not only remarkable but what pushed me to be doing what I’m doing right now. And to have this be my touring debut is just insane to me. This show has meant so much to me, and I never have words to describe how I feel doing this show and doing the role of Connor. It’s insane.

You can catch Alex in this incredible role next month!

Cristina Mittermeier

C

ristina Mittermeier is a marine biologist, a photographer and a storyteller. Her work has been published in many periodicals, and her photographs have been displayed in galleries around the world. Through this work and the nonprofit she helped to create, SeaLegacy, she hopes to rewild and protect the world’s oceans.

Mittermeier was born in the mountains of Mexico and grew up to be a National Geographic photographer, which is why she is constantly trying to inspire and show others that you can grow up to do whatever it is that they want to do. When she was young she stumbled upon Ikigai, the Japanese concept of finding the purpose of your life. “It really gave me a north star for my career,” she says, “It’s been what guides me through my art, through my advocacy work, through everything I do.”

20 INTERMISSION FEBRUARY 2025

Ikigai goes through four stages to help one find their path through life. These stages include finding what you love, finding what you’re good at, what you can be paid for doing, and what the world needs.

According to Mittermeier, we often stop at this last step, considering what the world needs. “If you find all four, you never have to get up to work again in your life,” she says and continues: “You just show up for your life purpose. It is so much fun.

So, I encourage people to look for theirs because I have found mine.”

Mittermeier started as a scientist, which came from her love of the natural world — a love she believes all young people have but get discouraged from pursuing because there is little money in it. She was lucky enough to become a marine biologist. She saw the world around her in trouble and wanted to help.

“Each and every one of us has to be invested in our own future. We don’t get to sit back and hope that somebody else is going to do something.”

However, Mittermeier soon found that many have a hard time grasping the sciences. Graphs and data are not emotional ways to convey ideas and facts. She stumbled upon photography as a way to better communicate those ideas and facts. She found it helped invite others in and to make them want to learn more.

“Science is a language that intimidates, and a lot of people don’t want to feel that they don’t understand, so they reject it. No one wants to feel stupid,” says Mittermeier. “But photography is a language we all speak, and when you show someone a photograph and catch their attention, they start asking questions,” she adds.

By getting others to ask those questions, she hopes to show the world how important it is to care for our planet, particularly the oceans.

“We are all sitting back and hoping someone else is taking care of the planet and keeping it alive.

... Nobody else is,” Mittermeier says. She continues: “Each and every one of us has to be invested in our own future. We don’t get to sit back and hope that somebody else is going to do something.”

Hear more about Mittermeier’s work and message of hope for the future of our world when she visits on March 21!
