CALENDAR OF EVENTS

November – December 2017

EVENT:

“Spamilton”

Created, Written and Directed by Gerard Alessandrini

West Coast Premiere.

DESCRIPTION:

“Spamilton” celebrates and satirizes the Broadway blockbuster with a versatile cast of five. Marilyn Stasio of Variety mused, “Hip-hop, Broadway showtunes, Viennese waltzes — is there anything this guy can’t write? No, not ‘Hamilton’ creator Lin-Manuel Miranda, but Gerard Alessandrini, whose ingenious parody ‘Spamilton’ simultaneously salutes and sends up Miranda and his signature musical.” And Ben Brantley said “This smart, silly and often convulsively funny thesis, performed by a motor-mouthed cast that is fluent in many tongues, is the work of that eminent specialist in Broadway anatomy, pathology and gossip, Gerard Alessandrini.”

'Head of Passes' Opens Sunday, September 24 at the Taper

Center Theatre Group — Mon, 18 Sep 2017 15:25:00 -0700

Tarell Alvin McCraney's 'Head of passes' Opens Sun., Sept. 24 at the Taper

Performances of the Award-Winning Playwright's New Play Continue Through October 22

Academy Award winner and playwright Tarell Alvin McCraney’s Head of Passes opens Sunday, September 24 at 7 p.m. at the Mark Taper Forum. Directed by Tina Landau, the poetic and powerful new play, which is part of Center Theatre Group’s 50^th anniversary season at the Taper, continues through October 22, 2017.

The cast of Head of Passes includes, in alphabetical order, Alana Arenas, Francois Battiste, Kyle Beltran, J. Bernard Calloway, James Carpenter, John Earl Jelks, Phylicia Rashad and Jacqueline Williams.

Family and friends are gathering to celebrate Shelah’s (portrayed by Rashad) birthday under the leaky roof of her home at the mouth of the Mississippi River. But an unwanted birthday party and unrelenting rains are only the first challenges in this contemporary parable inspired by the Book of Job in which unexpected events turn the reunion into the ultimate test of faith and love. As her world seems to collapse around her, Shelah must fight to survive the rising flood of life’s greatest challenges in this poetic and piercing new play.

When Head of Passes was presented at The Public Theater, Ben Brantley of The New York Times said, …in her remarkable, pull-out-all-the-stops performance in Tarell Alvin McCraney’s ‘Head of Passes,’ Ms. Rashad gives the impression that she could definitely hold her own on Shakespeare’s blasted heath. Portraying a sorely tested Southern matriarch, she can be found railing against God and the elements with a harrowingly Lear- like rage. Linda Winer of Newsday observed, If Phylicia Rashad had not already taken us on formidable journeys through the world of August Wilson and so many other formidable dramas, it would be tempting to call Shelah, the matriarch in ‘Head of Passes,’ the role of a lifetime.

The creative team for Head of Passes includes scenic design by G.W. Mercier, costume design by Toni-Leslie James, lighting design by Jeff Croiter and sound design by Rob Milburn and Michael Bodeen. The production stage manager is David S. Franklin.

Tarell Alvin McCraney co-wrote the Academy Award-winning film Moonlight, which is based on his play In Moonlight Black Boys Look Blue. The film earned him an Oscar for Best Adapted Screenplay. McCraney is an ensemble member at Steppenwolf Theatre Company and founding member of Teo Castellanos/D-Projects. In addition to the MacArthur Genius Grant, he has received the Doris Duke Artist Award, Whiting Award, Steinberg Playwright Award, Evening Standard Award for Most Promising Playwright, The New York Times Outstanding Playwright Award, the Paula Vogel Playwriting Award and the Windham Campbell Award. He was International Writer in Residence for the Royal Shakespeare Company (2009 to 2011) where he remains an associate artist. McCraney is the Artistic Director of the Youth Arts Leadership Summer Program. His Public Theater productions include Head of Passes, The Brother/Sister Plays and an edit of Antony and Cleopatra.The Brothers Size was a part of the Under the Radar Festival and other credits include Choir Boy and Wig Out. McCraney is the chair of the Department of Playwriting at the Yale School of Drama. He is developing a new TV series for the Oprah Winfrey Network.

Full Cast Joins Previously Announced Carmen Cusack in Moving New Musical That Runs October 11 through November 19, 2017

Rehearsals have begun and the full cast is set for “Bright Star” at the Ahmanson Theatre. Presented by Center Theatre Group, the Tony Award-nominated Best Musical, with music, lyrics and story by Grammy, Emmy and Oscar winner Steve Martin and Grammy winner Edie Brickell, will be directed by Tony Award winner Walter Bobbie and choreographed by Josh Rhodes. It begins previews October 11, opens October 20 and runs through November 19, 2017.

Joining the previously announced Carmen Cusack, the cast includes Stephen Lee Anderson, David Atkinson, Jeff Austin, Maddie Shea Baldwin, Jeff Blumenkrantz, Allison Briner-Dardenne, Patrick Cummings, Kaitlyn Davidson, A.J. Shively, Devin Archer, Kelly Baker, Audrey Cardwell, Max Chernin, Robin De Lano, Richard Gatta, David Kirk Grant, Donna Louden, Kevin McMahon, Alessa Neeck, Robert Pieranunzi and Michael Starr.

Inspired by a real event, this original musical tells a sweeping tale of love and redemption set against the rich backdrop of the American South in the 1920s and ‘40s. Propelled by an ensemble of onstage musicians and dancers, the story unfolds as a rich tapestry of deep emotion, beautiful melodies and enthralling performances. Marc Snetiker of Entertainment Weekly called “Bright Star,” “A genuinely delightful show bolstered by an incredible debut from Carmen Cusack.”

“Bright Star” won the 2016 Outer Critics Circle Awards for Best Musical and Best Score and the Drama Desk Award for Outstanding Music. It also received five 2016 Tony Award nominations including Best Musical, Best Score, Best Book, Best Lead Actress in a Musical and Best Orchestrations.

Carmen Cusack made her Broadway debut last year in “Bright Star,” for which she received a Tony Award nomination for Best Actress in a Musical. She was featured last fall in New York City Center’s gala concert of “Sunday in the Park with George” and in Los Angeles in “For The Record – Scorsese: American Crime Requiem.” Other credits include “The First Wives Club: The Musical” (Chicago’s Oriental Theatre), “Sunday in the Park with George” (Chicago Shakespeare Theater), “Carrie” (MCC), “South Pacific” (Lincoln Center Theater and national tour at the Ahmanson) and “Wicked” (first U.S. tour and Melbourne, AU).

This year, Carmen starred in the world premiere of Karen Siff Exhorn’s “Do This,” a one-woman play at Gulfshore Playhouse in Naples, FL. She recently released the Live at 54 Below album, “If You Knew My Story,” and she sold out eight shows at Feinstein’s/54 Below in NYC. This summer, she starred in “Sondheim on Sondheim” with the Boston Pops in Tanglewood, Boston and at the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles.

Steve Martin is one of the most well-known and pervasive talents in entertainment and one of the most diversified performers in the industry today, a successful author, playwright, producer, actor, screenwriter and comedian for more than three decades. His work has earned him an Academy Award, five Grammy Awards (two for comedy, three for music), the Mark Twain Award and the Kennedy Center Honor. Martin’s films are widely popular successes, such as “The Jerk” (1979, also screenplay); “Planes, Trains, & Automobiles” (1987); “Roxanne” (1987, also screenplay); “Parenthood” (1989); “L.A. Story” (1991, also screenplay); “Father of the Bride” (1991); and “Bowfinger” (1999, also screenplay). As an author, Martin’s work includes the plays “Picasso at the Lupin Agile” and “The Underpants;” the best-selling novella, “Shopgirl;” and his memoir, “Born Standing Up.” Steve Martin is also an accomplished Grammy Award-winning, boundary-pushing bluegrass banjoist and composer. In 2013, Martin released his third full-length album called “Love Has Come For You,” a unique collaboration with songwriter Edie Brickell. “Love Has Come For You,” won a Grammy for “Best American Roots Song” for the title track and inspired their musical “Bright Star,” which opened on Broadway in March 2016 and received five Tony Award nominations and seven Drama Desk Award nominations, winning for Outstanding Music. “Bright Star” also won Outstanding New Broadway Musical and Outstanding New Score at the Outer Critics Circle Awards. Martin and Brickell’s second album together, “So Familiar,” was released on Rounder Records and featured 12 remarkable songs that bought the acclaimed duo’s musical collaboration into fresh creative territory. Steve Martin and The Steep Canyon Rangers will release their newest collaboration “The Long-Awaited Album” on Rounder Records on September 22, 2017.

Edie Brickell released the debut multi-platinum album “Shooting Rubber Bands At The Stars” with New Bohemians in 1988. Her more recent works include a 13-track collaboration with Steve Martin titled “Love Has Come For You,” which earned a Grammy for “Best American Roots Song.” In 2015, the duo released a second album titled “So Familiar,” which featured 12 new bluegrass songs that bring the duo’s musical collaboration into fresh creative territory.

Walter Bobbie most recently directed the world premiere of “Big Night” by Paul Rudnick at Center Theatre Group’s Kirk Douglas Theatre. He also directed the New York productions of “Bright Star,” “Venus in Fur,” “The Landing,” “Golden Age,” “School for Lies,” “Irving Berlin’s White Christmas,” “Chicago,” “The Submission, Cabin Pressure,” “The Savannah Disputation,” “New Jerusalem,” “High Fidelity,” “The Other Woman,” “The Marriage of Bette and Boo,” “Sweet Charity,” “Twentieth Century,” “Footloose,” “Durang Durang,” “For Whom the Southern Belle Tolls” and “A Grand Night for Singing.” He was Artistic Director of City Center Encores! where he also directed “Fiorello!,” “Chicago,” “Tenderloin,” “Golden Boy,” “No, No, Nanette” and “Zorba,” as well as the Carnegie Hall concerts of “South Pacific” and “Carousel.” Bobbie serves on the Board of the Stage Directors and Choreographers Society. He is a recipient of the Drama Desk, Outer Critics Circle and Tony Awards.

Center Theatre Group — Tue, 12 Sep 2017 15:40:00 -0700

“BIG NIGHT” OPENS AT THE CENTER THEATRE GROUP’S KIRK DOUGLAS THEATRE SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 16

The world premiere of Paul Rudnick’s new play “Big Night” opens Saturday, September 16 at 8 p.m. at Center Theatre Group’s Kirk Douglas Theatre in Culver City.

It is the night of the Oscars and a working actor turned Oscar nominee knows that his life is about to change—he just doesn’t know how profoundly. His transgender nephew has plans for his speech, his young agent has plans for his future, his unstoppable mother has plans for the catering and his partner is nowhere to be found. Master satirist Paul Rudnick blends a deep humanity with a honed sense of hilarity in this powerful and funny play about family and fame, the personal and the political, and the drive to stand up and speak out.

Paul Rudnick is a playwright, novelist, essayist and screenwriter, whom The New York Times has called “one of our pre-eminent humorists.” His plays have been produced both on and Off-Broadway and include “I Hate Hamlet,” “Jeffrey,” “The Most Fabulous Story Ever Told,” “Regrets Only” and “The New Century.” He’s won an Obie Award, two Outer Critics Circle Awards and the John Gassner Playwriting Award. Rudnick’s novels include “Social Disease” and “I’ll Take It,” both from Knopf. He’s a regular contributor to The New Yorker and his articles and essays have appeared in Vanity Fair, Esquire, Vogue and The New York Times. HarperCollins published his “Collected Plays” and a book of essays entitled “I Shudder.” He’s rumored to be quite close to Premiere magazine’s film critic, Libby Gelman-Waxner, whose collected columns were published under the title “If You Ask Me.” His screenplays include “Addams Family Values,” the screen adaptation of “Jeffrey” and “In & Out.”

Tickets for “Big Night” are available by calling (213) 628-2772, online at www.CenterTheatreGroup.org, at the Center Theatre Group Box Office at the Ahmanson Theatre or at the Kirk Douglas Theatre Box Office two hours prior to performance.

CENTER THEATRE GROUP HOSTS CHISME Y QUESO EVENTS AT EASTSIDE LUV WINE BAR IN BOYLE HEIGHTS ON SELECT SUNDAYS IN SEPTEMBER, OCTOBER AND NOVEMBER

Event Series is Part of a Two-Year Community Initiative Funded by the Doris Duke Charitable Foundation

Center Theatre Group will host the second season of Chisme y Queso with six community events at Eastside Luv Wine Bar in Boyle Heights, located at 1835 E. First St, Los Angeles, CA 90033. Patrons and artists alike are invited to gather and anonymously share their chisme (“gossip” in Spanish) and have it performed onstage by local actors. Alongside the improvisation based on audience chisme, the actors will also perform in short sketches written by up-and-coming Angeleno playwrights. At the end of the night, the best chisme is awarded a block of queso fresco and tickets to a Center Theatre Group show.

The events are free and will be held on September 10 and 24, October 8 and 22, and November 5 and 12. Each event will take place from 6 to 7:30 p.m. with doors at 5 p.m. Patrons must be 21 and older to attend.

The sketches are written by Anthony Aguilar, Diana Burbano, Juan E. Carrillo, Manuel Marron, Marisol Torres and Vilma Villela in writers’ room sessions led by Center Theatre Group resident artist Naomi Iizuka and Center Theatre Group Literary Manager Joy Meads. The Chisme y Queso actors are Melinna Bobadilla and Eddie Vona, who are directed by Alejandra Cisneros. Community Liaison Alexis de la Rocha serves as MC and DJ JessFunk provides the music each evening.

Chisme y Queso is part of a two-year community initiative funded by the Doris Duke Charitable Foundation Building Demand for the Arts grant, which was awarded to Center Theatre Group in 2016 to help build on the community programs started by the organization in 2013. The goal of the grant is to drive public demand for jazz, theatre and/or contemporary dance by supporting partnerships that are focused on using the performing arts in unique ways to develop meaningful connections with audiences.

Through Chisme y Queso, Center Theatre Group hopes to tap into the existing arts-inclined Boyle Heights population as well as foster new playwriting voices within the L.A. community. It will serve as an outlet for those in the Boyle Heights and beyond to converse, create and collaborate in a familiar place.

“Even in the midst of our protesting and voicing our ongoing frustrations, Chisme y Queso allows us to come together as a community to share stories and laughter, to respond to our current climate with political sketches, satirical anecdotes and full force comedy, and to recharge our spirit so we can continue standing up for our rights,” said Center Theatre Group Community Partnerships Director Jesus A. Reyes.

Center Theatre Group, a non-profit organization, is one of the largest and most active theatre companies in the nation, programming subscription seasons year-round at the 736-seat Mark Taper Forum and the 1,600 to 2,000-seat Ahmanson Theatre at the Music Center of Los Angeles, and the 317-seat Kirk Douglas Theatre in Culver City. In addition to providing theatre of the highest caliber to the diverse communities of Southern California and beyond, Center Theatre Group supports a significant number of play development and arts education initiatives.

The first season of Chisme y Queso was held in the spring of 2017. More information about the upcoming events can be found at www.centertheatregroup.org/tickets/around-la/2017/chisme-y-queso/.
