FROM THE MAYOR
CITY OF NEW BEDFORD JONATHAN F. MITCHELL, MAYOR
Welcome to the Zeiterion Theatre, one of the premiere performing arts centers in New England, located in the heart of the Seaport Cultural District. It is fitting that the Z would chose to make this season all about stories. We are a city of stories and a storied city-the center of the American whaling industry that left behind a tapestry of stories that continue to fascinate us today. Today we are nationally known as the top commercial fishing port in America and as a national leader in renewable energy. New Bedford is also home to a vibrant arts and culture scene, a national park, a preeminent arts college, and numerous galleries, shops, and restaurants. It's no wonder that the Atlantic Monthly named New Bedford one of the "most artistic" cities in America. The Z is at the center of it all. Here, visitors can experience the unique arts, history, and culture that New Bedford residents enjoy year-round. This season promises a wide variety of performances by world-class artists, entertainers, and story tellers. Get ready to be inspired! Sincerely,
Jon Mitchell

HISTORY OF ZEITERION THEATER
O
n April 2, 1923, New Bedford opened its last new theatre in the city’s downtown area – THE ZEITERION. Built for the “live performance of vaudeville”, it opened with “Troubles of 1922” starring and written by George Jessel. Barney Zeitz and his brothers built the $800,000 Zeiterion with the intention it be the biggest and best theatre in New Bedford. The two story tapestry brick building, designed by Frank Leary and Frank Walker, is an adaption of the Georgian Revival style. Inside, the decorative shield with the family’s “Z” logo and marble columned walls dominated the lobby. The Morning Mercury described the auditorium as “Impressive in its beauty.” The color scheme was ivory and old rose; silk tapestry on the walls, a frieze of gold leaf Grecian dancing figures; a large oval sunset scene on the ceiling, an orchestra rail of solid gum wood, and a $7,000 cut glass Czechoslovakian chandelier. The theatre did not meet with immediate success and by September 1923 it had closed briefly and reopened that month as the STATE, a silent movie house. Its first film was the New England premiere of D. W. Griffith’s, “The White Rose”. From this point on the STATE would feature only occasional live performances. Five world premieres were held at the STATE. The most important premiere was the 1956 opening of “Moby Dick” complete with Gregory Peck in attendance, a Time magazine souvenir issue and a white whale that terrified audiences everywhere. The STATE was modernized in 1971. Marble walls were covered with wood paneling, chandeliers in the lobby were removed, contemporary rocking seats replaced original leather and black paint replaced ivory and old rose. On December 31, 1981, the Penler Brothers of Paragon Travel donated the theatre portion of the building to the Waterfront Historic Area League (WHALE) who provided $200,000 for the first phase of restoration and commissioned a feasibility study. Once one of 17 operating theatres in New Bedford, the Zeiterion has been restored to its original grandeur. It is reborn as the symbol of an age when theatres were truly palaces for the people. The ZEITERION held it’s gala-reopening on September 25, 1982 starring Shirley Jones in Concert. To become eligible for major state funding for restoration, WHALE transferred title of the theatre to the City of New Bedford. The building is now managed and maintained by The Zeiterion Theatre, Inc. 34

COLIN
QUINN
BASED ON THE HIT OFF-BROADWAY SHOW ‘THE NEW YORK STORY’
SATURDAY, OCTOBER 10, 8PM Wise-cracking comedian Colin Quinn comes to New Bedford fresh from his critically acclaimed tour-de-force one-man Broadway show “New York Story” directed by Jerry Seinfeld, and on the heels of a co-starring role in the Amy Schumer film “Trainwreck.” A native of Brooklyn, he began his stand-up career in New York as a regular on the comedy club circuit. On television, his affable perspective and everyman appeal won him a devoted following through his shows - MTV’s “Remote Control,” Saturday Night Live’s “Weekend Update,” and cult talk show “Tough Crowd with Colin Quinn.” In addition to his television work, he’s appeared in many films, including “A Night at the Roxbury,” “Comedian,” and Adam Sandler’s “Grown Ups.” NY1 praised this articulate comic as “infused with plenty of witty insights…even wisdom,” while the New York Times declared Quinn has a “knack for reducing the world’s intractable macro problems to matters of micro-egoism and macho one-upmanship.” ZEITERION.ORG / 508-994-2900

SATURDAY, OCTOBER 31, 6:30PM Nosferatu, the first-ever vampire movie, with its hideous-looking Count and ample creepiness, delivers the kind of spine-chilling moment that Halloween fans love. Watch it on the big screen at The Z, if you dare, while organist Bernie Anderson and The Z’s Mighty Wurlitzer Organ provide the seat-shaking soundtrack to this wildly scary 1923 silent movie.

FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 13, 8PM Arlo Guthrie recorded “Alice’s Restaurant” in 1965, recounting the fateful Thanksgiving day when he got arrested for littering. The song has become a Thanksgiving tradition played annually on public radio stations across the country, but Arlo dropped it from his tour set lists in 1975. He made a vow to play it only on special, 10-year anniversary events. “I didn’t actually think I would live long enough to have to do the 50th anniversary tour.” Arlo Guthrie is alive and well, and together with an ensemble of world class musicians including Terry Hall (drums), Bobby Sweet (guitar, vocals), Darren Todd (guitar), and his son, Abe Guthrie (keyboards), he’ll perform career spanning work in this multi-media concert and, of course the full-length “Alice’s Restaurant”!

FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 5, 8PM Starring the award-winning actress, singer, and dancer Jasmine Guy, and the acclaimed Avery Sharpe Jazz Trio, Raisin’ Cane celebrates and honors the legendary voices of the Harlem Renaissance through text, song, music, movement, and imagery. The words and thoughts of Langston Hughes, Countee Cullen, Zora Neale Hurston, W.E.B. Du Bois and many others, became the voice of a new generation of African-Americans looking forward but still struggling with the past and present. These thoughts, songs, and images are woven into a panoramic experience that spans this extraordinary outpouring of artistic endeavor that encapsulated the essence of 1920’s Harlem. Raisin’ Cane is a window to this critical point in American history, and its lasting impact on modern hearts and minds. ZEITERION.ORG / 508-994-2900

SUNDAY, FEBRUARY 7, 2PM Set sail for a whale of a tale with young sailor Ishmael, first mate Starbuck and Captain Ahab as they voyage across the seven seas in search of the legendary white whale, Moby Dick! In this stunning adaptation, Herman Melville’s classic tale is reimagined by three actors, using their bodies, props, and a variety of musical instruments to create the sounds and sensations of life aboard the Pequod. Watch as a double bass and cello personify everything from the creaking of the oars to the moaning of the hull, to the elusive whale himself. Brimming over with music, wit and imagination, Theatre Triebwerk’s adaptation of this beloved classic has been hailed by the New York Times as ‘a luminous and engrossing’ theatrical event.

FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 26, 8PM A Night with Janis Joplin is a musical journey celebrating Janis and her biggest musical influences - trailblazers like Aretha Franklin, Etta James, Odetta, Nina Simone and Bessie Smith, who inspired one of Rock ‘n’ Roll’s greatest legends. Like a comet that burns far too brightly to last, Janis Joplin exploded onto the music scene in 1967 and, almost overnight, became the Queen of Rock ‘n’ Roll. The unmistakable voice filled with raw emotion and tinged with Southern Comfort made her a must-see headliner from Monterey to Woodstock. Featuring Joplin’s favorites, including “Summertime,” “Piece of My Heart,” “Cry Baby,” and “Me and Bobby McGee,” – this show is a must-see! GENEROUSLY SPONSORED BY:

OUT OF BOUNDS WEDNESDAY, MARCH 9, 7PM What happens when you can’t protect your own child from the cruelty of her friends? Allison is a single mother who spends a whole school year trying to fight her daughter’s bullies while being haunted by memories of her own experiences growing up. Humorous, thoughtful and honest, Out of Bounds weaves together video, comic books and interviews to tell the stories of kids stuck on the outside and the adults who feel powerless to help them. This production is the parent’s version of the program shown earlier in the day to students throughout the region as part of The Z’s Schooltime Series and is intended to be a shared experience for families with children from ages 12 and up.

This year’s St. Patrick’s Day Celtic Sojourn with Brian O’Donovan will feature traditional instrumentalists, dancers, singers and more than a few surprises.

PAUL RISHELL & ANNIE RAINES WITH MOJO ROSEO THURSDAY, MAY 5, 7:30PM Guitarist Paul Rishell and harmonica player Annie Raines are among the most earnest and entertaining blues artists active today. You’re in for a treat as Paul, Annie and their band Mojo Rodeo perform acoustic gems and slow burning rockers in a wide range of blues styles, from the syncopated acoustic guitar wizardry of Blind Lemon Jefferson to Chicagoan “Little” Walter’s swinging amplified harmonica. “W.C. Handy Award-winners Rishell & Raines are rousing interpreters of country blues, the original acoustic style that gave birth to electric blues, R&B, and rock. While their guitar, harmonica, and vocals are roiling, muscular, and masterful, their shows are down home-friendly and fun-loving.” – Scott Alarik, BOSTON GLOBE
