2 Supporting the arts, locally. Each year, through various donations and sponsorships, we are committed to helping our local communities. We re proud to be the 2018/2019 season sponsor of the Grand Theatre.
3 Last season we brought Rebecca Northan s brilliant production of Blind Date to our Spriet Stage. Now, Rebecca returns to the Grand with An Undiscovered Shakespeare and we get to experience a true work in progress. This production, in an exciting early phase of its development, comes to life as part of our compass New Play Development program, which is dedicated to supporting the creation of new works on our stages. What better place to explore and play than our own McManus Stage? As an active participant in this development, we invite you to watch and enjoy as this team of artists explores all the opportunities to improvise a play in the style of William Shakespeare. It is my sincere belief that this project will keep on developing over the years, finding its path, as Rebecca and her team continue to experiment and play. How wonderful that the Grand Theatre, compass, and our partner on this workshop production, the Stratford Festival, will play a part in the creation of An Undiscovered Shakespeare. You can say you were among the first to participate. Bask in the creative risk, the challenge, and the joy of An Undiscovered Shakespeare. Welcome. dennis garnhum artistic director

7 DIRECTOR S NOTES The first time we got up on our feet to attempt speaking off the cuff, in iambic pentameter, I was shocked to find myself too afraid to speak. With 30 years of improv experience under my belt, that level of discomfort was something I assumed was far behind me. It was, of course, a deep fear of getting it wrong, crashing and burning, and looking like a failure. I had to remind myself of what my improv teacher, Keith Johnstone, would tell us over and over, You should fail as quickly as possible it s the only way to learn something new, and get any good at it. I am happy to say that after four summers of kicking this idea around, I am now able to open my mouth and have words come out. Sometimes, they are in iambic pentameter! When this happens, I mentally congratulate myself, and feel quite chuffed which is exactly the point that the verse line falls apart and I m failing all over the place. The only option is to breathe, practise instant forgiveness, and then attempt to climb back on board. What a humbling and useful discovery. The spontaneous striving for absolute structure demands nothing less than total presence. Shakespeare is teaching me to be a better (and more humble) improviser! More importantly though, our goal of elevating an average person s love story to Shakespearian heights has been truly moving. Some very generous volunteers have shared romantic details with us that could have come from the Bard himself highlighting the enduring quality of his work, and proving our theory that every life is Shakespearian. We ve told the tale of a British Nurse, kidnapped by a Pirate King, being rescued by her brother. An Amazonian Princess had a thrilling affair with a tortured soul who could not outrun his own demons. And the ghost of a woman s one-true-love appeared to give her the tender goodbye they never got in real life. We are reaching for something big, poetic, truthful, and dangerous here. You will see us careening between success and failure in any given moment. Things will fall apart. We will make thrilling discoveries. If we re very calm, and a little bit lucky, we might manage some beautiful imagery. We hope it will be a delicious train wreck. If you re sitting in a good spot, be sure to peek at the face of the person whose love story ends up on stage the light that you see there is the reason we keep risking falling down. rebecca northan

10 shakespeare every life is There s something of a cottage industry that has grown up around the topic of Shakespeare the Man. Over centuries, there have been speculations that Shakespeare poached a deer, owned a dog, practised Catholicism, fell in love with a man in London, fell in love with a woman in London. Scholars and artists have pored over the second-best bed he willed his wife, pondered possible connections between the writing of Hamlet in 1600 and the death of a son, Hamnet, four years earlier, and they ve made the pilgrimage to Stratford-upon-Avon where they scratch their names on a window in the house in which Shakespeare was born. Poems, plays, paintings, films, and biographies of Shakespeare abound. This enduring fascination with the biography we ve lost is sparked by the body of work that has been left behind. What kind of imagination could turn with such fertility from Julius Caesar to Hamlet to Twelfth Night, bringing life to characters as various as Rosalind, Othello, and Portia? Did arresting metaphors such as life s but a walking shadow and let slip the dogs of war flow effortlessly from his pen, or did he sometimes struggle, like the rest of us, to get an idea across? The sheer scope of his achievement is perhaps what drives conspiracy theorists to insist that Shakespeare, the glover s son from Stratford-upon-Avon, simply couldn t have written the canon we now ascribe to him. But somehow he did write those plays and poems, and we still wonder quite how. What was that process like? Shakespeare in Love first a film, and now also a stage play picks up on this modern curiosity about the creative artist behind the poetry. Upsetting notions of the solitary genius whose works spring fully formed from his mind, Shakespeare in Love gives us a writer who collects ideas for plots, speeches, and even character names from everyday exchanges and encounters as they unfold around him. The supposed magic behind Shakespeare s creativity, at least in this telling of it, comes to seem more imaginable, more grounded in ordinary lives. What then if one of our own lives could inspire a play by Shakespeare? Those amateur collaborators in An Undiscovered Shakespeare who cross from the auditorium to the stage provide the kind of raw material that perhaps once led Shakespeare to imagine a bereaved Viola, a swaggering Petruchio, a witty Beatrice, or a tragically stupid Leontes. My father had a daughter loved a man, Cesario (really Viola in disguise as a boy) tells the man he/she secretly loves.
11 an LUKE HUMPHREY (CENTRE) AS WILL SHAKESPEARE WITH MEMBERS OF THE COMPANY IN THE STRATFORD FESTIVAL S PRODUCTION OF SHAKESPEARE IN LOVE, PHOTO BY DAVID HOU. And what s her history? Orsino replies. A blank, my lord. She never told her love. Telling her story, my story, our stories. It s a desire, possibly even a need, that s probably as old as theatre itself. Telling stories that might otherwise be lost to time. Collaborating across time in iambic pentameter, An Undiscovered Shakespeare stages some of the stories from our own age comic? tragic? tragical-comical-historical-pastoral? that Shakespeare never had the chance to stage. And therein lies the rub. Iambic pentameter. The verse form that strikes fear in many an undergraduate s heart. The everyday rhythm of spoken English. The rhythm of your heartbeat. Actors often claim that the drive of the verse helps them to learn and remember their lines, and even to improvise their way out of sticky spots in live performance when things go wrong. But an entire play improvised in iambic pentameter? Live theatre, at its best, is something of a tightrope act. A word or line can be forgotten, a piece of machinery might fail, an actor might suddenly get the giggles. Performers and their audience are in it together, mutually creating the energy that arcs like electricity from the stage to the auditorium and back again. Improvisation offers something like a virtuoso display of talent and creativity as spectators and possibly sometimes even the actors wonder and watch art take shape where previously there had been a blank history. This is maybe a little bit like the way Shakespeare once worked. Maybe something like a Shakespearean life in art, made new every night. margaret jane kidnie western university
