5 ABOUT THE HYPOCRITES The Hypocrites are an ensemble theatre company based in Chicago, Il. Founded by Artistic Director Sean Graney in 1997, the acclaimed theatre company believes that there is no deeper reason to live than being with other people; laughing, sharing stories, helping friends through personal pain, exchanging ideas. In service of this mission, The Hypocrites focus on the audience-actor relationship through their use of promenade theatre: they invite the audience to move around the performance space and even sit on stage during the show! The company produces work both old and new, with a penchant for putting a contemporary spin on classic shows. With a repertoire that spans more than 50 productions, The Hypocrites have won many awards, including the 2013 National Theatre Company Award from the American Theatre Wing, along with 23 Joseph Jefferson Awards (Chicago s version of the Tony Awards). The Hypocrites work has been seen at Steppenwolf Garage, Goodman Theatre, and many other venues around Chicago. They have also toured America with their hit production of The Pirates of Penzance, which appeared at Actors Theatre during the Season. 5
6 Arthur Sullivan W.S. Gilbert ABOUT THE PLAYWRIGHTS Librettist W.S. Gilbert and composer Arthur Sullivan collaboratively penned fourteen comic operas between 1871 and 1896, which enjoyed enormous popularity in their own time and continue to be performed throughout the English-speaking world today. The pair was first brought together to produce a Christmas entertainment, Thespis, at London s Gaiety Theatre in Producer Richard D Oyly Carte became their most important champion; he built the Savoy Theatre in 1881 to present their collaborations, which came to be known as Savoy Operas, and the D Oyly Carte Opera Company dedicated itself to staging their work for more than a century. Famous for their topsy-turvy plots and tunefully memorable melodies, Gilbert and Sullivan s best-loved operettas include H.M.S. Pinafore, The Pirates of Penzance, Iolanthe, and The Mikado, among many others. Their body of work made a significant impact on the development of musical theatre as a form in the 20 th century, and its popular appeal and cultural influence in literature, film, and television remains pervasive to this day. 6
7 WRITING PORTFOLIO NARRATIVE: CCRA.W.3 H.M.S. Pinafore, like much of Gilbert and Sullivan s work, critiques the British class system and British society s reliance on class and rank to dictate relationships. A repeated refrain in the play is Love levels all ranks, meaning that love can defy social status. Write about a relationship (friendship or romance) in your life that challenged the status quo. Maybe you befriended someone much older or younger than you, or you know someone who fell in love with a person from a different social background. How did this relationship come about and how did the outside world respond to it? Reflect on this in an essay contemplating how the external world can influence relationships. ARGUMENTATIVE: CCRA.W.1 The Hypocrites production of H.M.S. Pinafore genderswaps most of the roles in this play; women play roles traditionally performed by men and vice-versa. What themes or ideas from the original play do you think are highlighted by this shift in casting? How do you think the change in gender of the characters in this performance will impact an audience s understanding of the play? What benefits or drawbacks do you think might occur from this swap? INFORMATIVE: CCRA.W.2 Write a review of the performance of H.M.S. Pinafore that you saw at Actors Theatre of Louisville. What parts of the play (the actors performances, the set, props, costumes, lighting and sound design, etc.) were your favorites and why? How effective were these elements in telling the story? Back up your claims with evidence and details from your experience of watching the performance. Then make a copy and send it to the education department at Actors Theatre of Louisville c/o Jane B. Jones 316 West Main Street Louisville, Kentucky We will share your thoughts with the creative team. The poster illustration from the original 1878 production of H.M.S. Pinafore 7
8 BRIDGEWORK AT YOUR DESK 1. A key plot point in two of Gilbert and Sullivan s most famous works, H.M.S. Pinafore and The Pirates of Penzance, is the mixing up of the main characters social status when they were very young. In both plays, characters that are thought to be very poor or to have low social status are revealed to be rich or royal. How many other stories that use a similar plot device can your class brainstorm? 2. Gilbert and Sullivan wrote and composed over a dozen comic operas together. In partners, work together to write a short comic song and set it to a tune, or adapt the lyrics of a popular song in the style of Gilbert and Sullivan. Perform the song for your classmates, if you dare! AWAY FROM YOUR DESK 1. Have you ever heard the phrase triple threat to describe someone who can act, sing, and dance at the same time? The members of The Hypocrites are all QUADRUPLE threats; not only do they act, sing, and dance, but they also play all of their own instruments. If someone described you as a quadruple threat, what skills would they be referring to? Maybe you can blow the perfect bubble, walk on your hands, or sing the alphabet backwards? As a class, share some of your special skills. If your class were to put on a show, what skills would you feature? 2. When H.M.S. Pinafore first premiered in 1878, the silly turns of phrase featured in the songs quickly entered the popular vernacular in London, England. This set of lyrics from the Captain s song, My Gallant Crew, Good Morning, were particularly widespread: A: What, never? B: No, never! A: What, never? B: Well, hardly ever! Form two lines, line A and line B. The first person in line B enters the scene and starts performing an action, such as pretending to mop the floor, brush their teeth or defuse a bomb (anything you can think of, really). Once the action is established, the first person from line A enters the scene and begins the dialogue using the above lines. The duo must continue the scene, making the dialogue work in their performance. A teacher or another appointed person can clap their hands, ending the scene and prompting the next students in each line to start a new scene. 8
9 DISCUSSION QUESTIONS PRE-SHOW QUESTIONS 1. In this production, several audience members will sit on the stage, a style of performance called promenade theatre. How do you think having audience members in the middle of the action will affect the performance? Would you want to sit in one of those seats? Why or why not? 2. The Hypocrites production of H.M.S. Pinafore puts a playful, modern spin on this classic Gilbert and Sullivan comic opera from How do you think the contemporary setting and costumes will impact an audience s understanding of the play? What benefits or drawbacks do you think might occur from setting the play in a different time period than it was originally written? POST-SHOW QUESTIONS 1. How did having audience members on stage affect the performance? Did seeing other audience members seated on stage add to the experience? Was it ever distracting? How do you think the performance would have been different if those seats had been empty? 2. The popular refrain in the play, Love levels all Ranks, is flipped on its tail when Buttercup reveals that she accidentally switched Ralphina and the Captain as babies. This revelation automatically elevates Ralphina s status and lowers the Captain s, enabling both to be with the one they love. If love truly levels all ranks, why does there need to be a twist ending like this? What do you think Gilbert and Sullivan intended by leveling the social statuses of the lovers? Can love really level all ranks? 9
