DRAMATURG’S NOTES “The woman is usually stronger than the man because he always says yes to her.” ~ Gloria Marc Camoletti likes to make a mess. His world in Boeing Boeing is spun on an axis of conflicts; personalities, nationalities, sexualities all clash together faster than the jet-powered engines that Camoletti uses to name his sexy romp. The Boeing 707 aircraft introduces the initial conflict that spins the play’s world out of control. These sleek, new jets would also conflict with a sky that was still dominated by propellers; the airline industry would soon have to adopt the mantra, “out with the old, in with the new,” in order to keep up with the changing times. The stewardesses being carried in these bigger, faster aircraft were beginning to experience a shift of their own: a shift of power. Since the inception of the stewardess profession in the 1930s, the role was always intended to be subordinate to the male pilots and would eventually become discriminatory. Strict age, height, and weight limits went unchecked up until the passage of the Civil Rights Act in 1965, which would prohibit corporations from setting such degrading regulations. Shaking off their constricting girdles and slipping on the empowered spirit of the 1960s, stewardesses (like those of Camoletti’s farce) created a new gender dynamic that could potentially threaten their male counterparts. The revelation of Bernard’s scheme is what grants the women of this play their power. The revolving-door presence of the three stewardesses reduces the two men to frantic chickens trying to keep the scheme under wraps. This reversal of fortune is a central ingredient for the commedia dell-arte style of comedy, which this production fully embraces. Commedia chooses to embrace exaggerated, stock characters for the sake of being able to freely experiment with them. “We laugh because we’re watching the ‘known’ character contend with an ‘unknown’ situation.” - Laura A. Ewald The chauvinistic, sexually-driven man is an archetype as old as time, but an apartment full of powerful women is the unknown territory that makes things messy. A successful farce has no time for character study; it’s only if they move quickly enough that a grain of truth can spill out of the high intensity. These high-flying stewardesses test Bernard’s limits, up to the point where they unintentionally reform the once one-dimensional man. Despite how humorous Boeing Boeing may be, its ridiculous situations trigger a journey that illustrates the American man’s fluctuating opinion of quiet domesticity.
- Kevin Reagan, Dramaturg

he goal of our Take Your Seat! campaign is to raise funds for the Showcase of Talent Endowment. The annual Showcase of Talent provides an opportunity for senior Acting and Musical Theatre majors to audition for, and interview with, industry professionals for theatre, film and television across the country. These potential employers also interview and review portfolios of junior and senior Design/Technology and Dramaturgy majors, as well as present valuable workshops to help students transition into the professional world.
S
ome of our students secure employment as a result of the Showcase of Talent, and all receive the priceless experience of interacting with working professionals. So, Please...Take Your Seat!
