1 THE CONDUCTOR Based on the novel "The Conductor" by Sarah Quigley Adaptation by Mark Wallington and Jared McNeill Music Daniel Wallington Directed by Jared McNeill With Joe Skelton and Deborah Wastell PRESS KIT Photograph : Bettmann/Corbis

2 STATEMENT OF INTENT In 1941, Nazi troops surround the city of Leningrad, in what will come to be known as the Leningrad Blockade, a siege of more than 2 years, and one that will claim more than 1,000,000 lives. In the midst of this devastation, composer Dmitri Shostakovich works tirelessly to complete his 7th Symphony, a symphony for the people. The symphony is played across the front lines of the Russian resistance, and today serves as the sound that lifted an entire city in their darkest hour, instilling renewed faith in our willful capabilities as individuals, as well as the dignity and power that art may serve. It is essentially told, and intimately, between the music and two performers. This is not so much a war, as it is a story hope, and of enduring faith. Shostakovich says of his work : This is how I hear war. And it is there, in his music, in the discord, and in the moments of beauty springing out from chaos, sometimes rigid, and other times flowing so free. In a world very much engaged in a similar conversation, I think it is still there in the music, as well as the story behind. Jared McNeill

3 EXTRACTS 1. Listen. He's working on something new. A requiem, I think. The people say his music knows their pain. The work of a visionary. Dear Shostakovich. My adversary. My inspiration. What it must be to bear the burden of genius. I hate him. Of course I have no heart. I gave my heart to Shostakovich years ago. 2. The people will love it. The party too. Shostakovich This is how I hear war. It's why you re staying in Leningrad, isn t it? What better way to capture the essence of battle, than to sit right in the middle of it. Then you must stay. You must finish it. 3. Apparently there may be trains to transport the elderly out of Leningrad as soon as next week. The situation is becoming more dangerous by the day.

4 MOTHER I won t go. It s for the best, mother, surely you can see that. MOTHER I refuse to leave you. Mother, please-- MOTHER I won t go. I refuse to be evacuated like a refugee. This is our home. We are all we have. Nothing but this. Maybe they will keep us safe.

5 BIOGRAPHIES JARED MCNEILL director Jared McNeill trained at Fordham University at Lincoln Center in New York City where he graduated with a degree in Theater and Visual Arts.
