A LETTER FROM THE ARTISTIC DIRECTOR STUPID FUCKING BIRD I have known Aaron Posner primarily as an adapter of other people’s writing.

By the time he reached out to share that he had adapted Ken Kesey’s sprawling, impossible novel, Sometimes a Great Notion, I already knew him as the adapter of Chaim Potok’s The Chosen, the artistic director of a theater in Philadelphia, and an inventive director of classics. His work as an adapter has tended to be faithful, vigorous, affectionate and muscular.

But Stupid Fucking Bird is different.

You could call it an adaptation of The Seagull, Anton Chekhov’s famous and infamous early play about a young actress and playwright falling in and out of love. But it wasn’t so much an adaptation as a diving board, a launching pad, a wild frenzy. In SFB we are beginning to hear the full power, range and comic verve of Aaron’s own sensibility. Okay, yes, he uses the fundamental thread of Chekhov’s plot and characters — but he’s really exploring something very much his own: the power of story, the relationship to audience, the relevance (or irrelevance) of live theater, and the grand difficulty of finding new forms of expression that connect to the present moment.

THE PIANIST OF WILLESDEN LANE As I sat watching Mona Golabek’s The Pianist of Willesden Lane last summer, I found myself riveted by her hands. She lures us into the story of her mother’s journey with the sound of her voice: simple, unadorned, hushed. But it’s when her hands touch the keys of the piano and the exquisite compositions that her mother fell in love with long ago begin to come to life that I found myself held in a hypnotic spell.

The piece is a memoir and a tribute to a woman who found her solace and salvation in the music her hands were able to bring to life during the travails of World War II. It is an honor to have Mona in Portland to share this story on our stage.

— Chris Coleman

This particular production also brings three of our favorite performers back to the PCS stage: Cody Nickell, first seen in Outrage in 2003, then The Merchant of Venice, The Pillowman and How To Disappear Completely and Never Be Found; Kate Eastwood Norris of How To Disappear, The North Plan and Bo-Nita fame; and, of course, Darius Pierce (The Beard of Avon, Frost/Nixon, Twelfth Night, How To Disappear, Cyrano, The Santaland Diaries and others).

P 2 | PORTLAND CENTER STAGE STUPID FUCKING BIRD

FROM THE DIRECTOR Stupid Fucking Bird is not a “translation” and hardly even an “adaptation” of Anton Chekhov’s 1895 classic, The Seagull. It is a wholly original work built on the bones of the older play. The cast of characters has been compressed from 14 to seven, the four acts have been reduced to three, most of the scenes have been invented from scratch, and the dialogue is irreverently contemporary. Yet the core remains: the struggle of an aspiring playwright, son of a famous actress, to fulfill his revolutionary dreams of art and love.

All the Russian social and historical context of The Seagull has been eliminated, but the story resonates because the theme is nearly universal — the clash between the dreams of our youth and the sharp realities of our adult lives.

The Seagull holds a special place in theater history. Its 1898 production at the Moscow Art Theatre launched a four-play collaboration between Chekhov and director Constantin Stanislavski, whose revolutionary ideas about acting would inspire a worldwide shift toward deeper “realism” on the stage. Chekhov’s focus on the details of character development, rather The proverbial “fourth wall” of than plot, provided the perfect theatrical realism is shattered platform for Stanislavski’s emphasis on the emotional from the very first line. “inner life” and unspoken “subtext” of the characters.

When the Moscow Art Theatre presented their work in New York in 1923, they inspired a whole generation of American theater makers.

To this day, Stanislavski’s ideas remain at the core of the curriculum in theater departments across the United States, and Chekhov’s four major plays (The Seagull, Uncle Vanya, Three Sisters and The Cherry Orchard) remain widely produced around the world.

With Stupid Fucking Bird, Aaron Posner undertakes his own revolutionary dialogue with Chekhov. He upends the famous Chekhovian subtext by allowing the characters to express their inner thoughts directly through songs, monologues and choral interludes.

And he draws out the latent meta-theatricality of the original — which is, after all, a play about a playwright — by allowing the characters to talk openly about the play itself, even to solicit advice from the audience. The proverbial “fourth wall” of theatrical realism is shattered from the very first line.

Misha Kachman’s scenic design adds to this dialogue with Chekhovian tradition. The first act, with its portraits of Chekhov, table with samovar and other intentional signposts, gives a wink to our most common contemporary expectations about Chekhovian design. The second act cheekily comments on so-called “kitchen sink realism.”

And the third act transports us to a purely theatrical landscape that reminds us of a rehearsal hall or backstage area. As Aaron’s script becomes increasingly self-referential, so does Misha’s scenery.

This script and this production had a year-long gestation at Woolly Mammoth Theatre Company throughout the 2012–2013 season, with the playwright, director, actors and designers all working together in a robust collaboration that drew out, I hope, the best in everyone. We are proud that Stupid Fucking Bird is now being tackled by many other theater artists across the country. But it is a special honor to bring our original production to audiences at two great theaters in Syracuse and Portland. On behalf of the entire company, we’re grateful for the opportunity to share and deepen our work.

–Howard Shalwitz PORTLAND CENTER STAGE STUPID FUCKING BIRD | P 3

BY MIRIAM WEISFELD, PRODUCTION DRAMATURG With STUPID FUCKING BIRD, Aaron Posner creates his own highly personal riff on one of the most influential plays of the Western canon: Chekhov’s The Seagull.

Chekhov’s protagonist, the young playwright Constantin Treplev, rebels against the artistic traditions of his mother, the famous actress Irina Arkadina, and cries out for new forms of love, life and art. For over a hundred years, The Seagull has provided a vehicle for theatrical revolution: generation after generation of directors, designers, actors, translators and adapters have seized Treplev’s story and sought new forms of their own invention with which to reinterpret it.

Chekhov preferred illustrating the quirks, futility and circularity of human behavior over traditional playwriting tools of tight plotlines and predictable dramatic conflicts.

This provided an ideal vehicle for Stanislavski’s early theories, which urged actors to live as their characters lived. When playing a rural character, Stanislavski theorized, shouldn’t the actor first live a rural life and bring the memory of those sights, sounds, smells and habits into the performance of the play? Similarly, The Seagull and Chekhov’s subsequent works inspired the set designer, Victor Andreevich Simov, to depart from the traditional 19th-century box set and create a rich environment of exterior and interior details, from the lake and shrubbery outside Arkadina’s house to the furniture within.

Simov’s sets established a tradition of Chekhovian design in Russian theater, characterized by birch trees, autumn leaves, tea sets, and the sounds of animals and the natural world.

Part of the significance of The Seagull is rooted in the play’s Moscow premiere. This 1898 production was not only Chekhov’s first critical success, but also his first play directed by Constantin Stanislavski and the first major success of Stanislavski’s new Moscow Art Theatre (MAT).

Stupid Fucking Bird provides its designers the opportunity to At the time of The Seagull’s Moscow create their own fresh responses to premiere, Chekhov was a thirty-eight- Look closely at Misha Kachman’s set for this tradition. Look closely at Misha year-old with no theatrical successes the first act: these icons of “Chekhoviana” Kachman’s set for the first act: these — the St. Petersburg premiere of the icons of “Chekhoviana” have been have been deconstructed into tongue-inplay had been panned by critics.

PERFORMER’S NOTE My mother, Lisa Jura, was my best friend. She taught my sister, Renee, and me to play the piano. We loved our piano lessons with her. They were more than piano lessons — they were lessons in life. They were filled with stories of a hostel in London and the people she knew there. Her stories were our folklore, bursting with bits and pieces of wonderful characters who bonded over her music. Sitting at the piano as a child, I would close my eyes and listen to her lilting voice and imagine her world. She always believed “each piece of music tells a story.” Her legacy has inspired my music and my life. I pass along her story in the hope that it may enrich the passion and music that lie in each of us.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS First and foremost, my heartfelt gratitude to the extraordinary British people who opened their hearts and souls and saved the lives of so many young refugees, including the “kinder” of 243 Willesden Lane.

HOW HATE BREEDS HEROISM

The events leading up to the Kindertransport

By Amy Levinson, Artistic Associate/Literary Director for Geffen Playhouse, where The Pianist of Willesden Lane had its world premiere in 2012.

Lisa Jura’s story as told by her daughter, Mona Golabek, is one story of thousands, many of which have never been heard. Although each story is entirely unique, as is each person who lived through these horrors, there is a commonality in having survived what led to the evacuation of 10,000 children to England, now known as the Kindertransport. The events leading up to the Kindertransport began with Nazi Propaganda Minister Joseph Goebbels, who instigated widespread pogroms (violent mob attacks against Jews) in Germany and other Germanoccupied areas in November of 1938. And although we could track violent anti-Semitism further back, for the purposes of contextualizing the Kindertransport, we begin with Joseph Goebbels and his propaganda machine.

When Herschel Grynszpan, a young Jewish Pole, received news that his parents, residents of Germany since 1911, had been expelled from Germany along with thousands of other Poles, he was despondent. When the Jews tried to return to Poland, they found they were not welcome there either, and were interned in a refugee camp to await a place to go.

Outraged by the treatment of his parents, Grynszpan sought revenge on the diplomatic official who had been assigned to help him and his family, and on November 7, 1938 he shot Ernst Vom Rath, who died two days later.

party sought to exile their Jewish populations, this singular event opened the eyes of many, most notably the British, who up until that point had resisted emigration en masse from Germany. The British government had recently denied the entrance of 10,000 children into Palestine, which was under British rule at that time, but in light of these blatant atrocities, Britain’s leadership felt a duty to change their position, and thus the Kindertransport began.

The British government agreed to permit an unspecified number of children (citizens under the age of 17) to come to the When the news of this British Isles for the period in reached Nazi Propaganda which the crisis in Germany Minister Goebbels, he and the occupied countries positioned the event as a continued. Parents or conspiracy of the Jews, guardians were not permitted when all evidence pointed to accompany their children, December, 1938 The British Cabinet allows 10,000 unacto the fact that it was simply and they were required to one young man in desperate post a £50 bond for each companied Jewish children into Britain in an action called the straits to save his parents. child. It was understood Kindertransport.

The Propaganda Minister that these children were on assured the German people temporary travel visas and that if they were to take would be returned to their mob action against the Jews, steps would not be taken to stop families when it was thought safe to do so. The bond was to or punish their actions. The statement from Munich, where be used for their travel expenses home. the Nazi leadership convened read: “Demonstrations should not be prepared or organized by the Party, but insofar as they The effort to organize these transports was painstaking work, erupt spontaneously, they are not to be hampered.” and numerous organizations and individual British citizens answered the call.

It arrived in Harwich from the Hook of Holland, systematically attacked Jewish populations throughout carrying 200 children, all of them orphans, who had left Germany and the occupied territories.

The event came to be known as Kristallnacht, The Kindertransport was a remarkable humanitarian translated to “the night of broken glass.” While the signs endeavor as approximately 10,000 children were rescued had been evident to the outside world all along that the Nazi between December 1938 and September 1939. As violence

continued to escalate, it became more and more difficult to remove the children. In September of 1939, the Germans ceased the issue of travel visas for Germany and the annexed countries, ending the opportunity for Britain to offer a safe haven to more children.

The events are described in great detail on kindertransport.org:

Children of the Kindertransport were dispersed to many parts of the British Isles. About half lived with foster families, the others in hostels, group homes and farms in England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. Those older than 14, unless they were fortunate enough to be sponsored by individuals and sent to boarding schools or taken into foster care, were frequently absorbed into the country’s labor force after a few weeks of training, mainly in agriculture or domestic service. Many families, Jewish and non-Jewish, opened their homes to take in these children.

Many of the children were well-treated, developing close bonds with their British hosts; however, others were mistreated or abused. A number of the older children joined the British or Australian armed forces as soon as they reached 18 years of age and joined the fight against the Nazis. Most of the children never saw their parents again.

June 9, 1938 Nazis destroy the Munich Synagogue by burning it to the ground.

July 6-14, 1938 An international

conference is called

by U.S. President Franklin Roosevelt to deal with the Jewish refugee problem. The 32 nations attending decide that they will not permit large numbers of Jews to enter their countries.

It should be noted that many individuals and organizations are recognized for their assistance in implementing the Kindertransport. The story of Mona Golabek’s mother, Lisa Jura, helps us to understand how many acts of valor are required to save only one life, and here tens of thousands were saved. In 1989, a group of Kinder, as they are now known, convened to create the Kindertransport Association (KTA) in order to reunite the people who had shared this experience, to revisit an often horrific past that was frequently unspoken by those who had survived it, and to create a written history so their families and the world outside might understand what it meant to be part of this rescue effort.

Mona Golabek is a living beneficiary of what the Kindertransport did for generations of Jews. Her grandmother, who wanted so much to preserve the gift of music in the Jura family, has certainly lived on in Mona’s extraordinary talent.

All of us must endure some terrible affliction in our lives. Some of us even have the misfortune to suffer an emotional holocaust. A story like Lisa Jura’s, as embodied by her daughter Mona Golabek, can lend us a new ear with which to hear our suffering — our terror, our loss, our loneliness and our despair. Lisa’s story can also help us hear, even in our darkest places, the melody of hope, inspiration, and healing. When the lights go out, when the bombs are descending, when the end of our world seems near, it is a pair of passionate hands upon a piano, moved by a heart that has known more of life than it ever wanted to know, that can carry us into a brighter realm beyond the darkness. This is the kind of healing that theater can offer us, and this is why I am proud to sponsor Portland Center Stage’s production of The Pianist of Willesden Lane.

HELEN & JERRY STERN We are delighted to be able to help Portland Center Stage bring this production and important story of The Pianist of Willesden Lane to the Portland community.

Join us July 28-30, 2016 For two weeks every summer, Portland Center Stage bursts at the seams with new play energy. JAW (short for Just Add Water) fills the Armory with playwrights, actors, directors, dramaturgs, stage managers, production assistants, and sometimes even dogs and babies. Rehearsals fill up every nook and cranny of the building while the copy machine whirs day and night with new pages and fresh scripts churning back into the rehearsal rooms.

The two-week blur of activity ends with staged readings that are free and open to the public, July 28-30, with a smorgasbord of performances throughout the Armory from local theater and arts ensembles.
