SunTrust now Truist understands that that the arts are essential to the quality of life in the communities we serve. The performing arts in particular have the power to inspire, entertain, inform, thrill and unite us in a communal experience. We value our ongoing partnership with DPAC, which has proven to be an extraordinary artistic and economic force in our region, forever setting a high bar on quality that it meets and exceeds season after season. Whether it’s enjoying our favorite Broadway shows or traveling the world, we all want to live our best lives. Helping people achieve financial confidence to live their best life is our purpose and passion.

W E L C O M E F RO M T H E M AYO R As Durham’s mayor, it is my pleasure to welcome you to the Durham Performing Arts Center as this nationally-renowned venue continues its twelfth season. My wife and I have been season ticket holders in DPAC’s Broadway series since it opened in 2008, and like DPAC’s more than 4.7 million guests, I continue to marvel at the caliber of performances showcased in our great city. Each year just gets better and better. For example, over 520,000 visitors walked the red carpet last year to attend award-winning musicals, such as Disney’s Aladdin, Dear Evan Hansen, and CATS, as well as sold-out concerts including Widespread Panic, Ringo Starr and His All Starr Band, and Gladys Knight. That’s not all. While providing entertainment that families can enjoy together is a top priority for DPAC, finding ways to involve those who may not otherwise enjoy all that the arts have to offer has become a special passion for this theater. Last year, DPAC implemented “DPAC for All,” a program that offers discounted tickets exclusively for Durham residents. No doubt, the arts contribute to Durham’s sense of community.Your attendance enables DPAC to support other nonprofit arts groups, such as the Durham Arts Council and the Hayti Heritage Center. DPAC also cultivates the arts in education by arranging visits from touring cast members to local schools through Heart of the Arts, and not to mention donating hundreds of tickets each year to schools and local charities to use for auctions and fundraising. DPAC is constantly working to ensure that the arts touch many areas of Durham and, indeed, the entire Triangle community. A visit to DPAC is an open invitation to experience Durham—from great awardwinning restaurants to shopping and culture. It’s as easy as parking and either walking, biking or taking the bus to downtown eateries, or taking a short drive to nearby malls, museums or historical sites. You should know that both Durham and DPAC have strong track records: The City recently celebrated 150 years of serving our growing, diverse population, while in November DPAC marked over a decade of showcasing award-winning entertainment. Thank you being a part of our history, present and future just by choosing DPAC and Durham. Now settle into your seats to enjoy your DPAC experience and an unforgettable show! Sincerely,
Mayor Steve Schewel

Now Offering the IB Diploma Program!
Visit msr.org today!
WELCOME FROM THE GENERAL MANAGER Welcome to DPAC! 2019 was a record-breaking year for us with 522,515 guests attending 239 events, the highest attendance for a calendar year since the center’s opening in 2008. With these new attendance figures, DPAC continues to be ranked among the top-five theaters in America by three leading national magazines that cover live entertainment events and venues. Operated under the direction of Nederlander and Professional Facilities Management (PFM), DPAC has welcomed more than 4.7 million guests to 2,200+ Broadway, concert, comedy and special events at DPAC since opening. None of this would be possible without you, our valued guests who are so supportive of the great variety of events that grace our stage. In addition to entertaining our many guests each year, DPAC also generates substantial economic impact by attracting thousands of guests to Durham from throughout the surrounding region and across the U.S. In our eleventh season, DPAC’s total economic impact was over $127 million, with visitors to DPAC contributing significantly to Durham’s continued renaissance and vitality. We love playing a role in helping to bring so many new visitors to Durham, to not only discover the great shows at DPAC that we host, but also to see all that Durham has to offer. Though it’s our top-five rankings that generate the headlines, what we’re proudest of is our guest experience. My greatest reward is seeing the smiles of our guests and hearing from the thousands each year that give us such great reviews and share so many nice compliments about our shows, our event staff and the overall guest experience of attending an event at DPAC. Before the performance begins, I invite you to review DPAC’s Guiding Principles which appear in this program on page 20. These principles guide everything we do. Thank you for your support and thank you for being here for this wonderful event. It’s my hope that this experience creates a brilliant new memory that lasts a lifetime. Sincerely,
Bob Klaus General Manager

Upcoming Broadway hits SIX and The Lehman Trilogy will open this spring at the Brooks Atkinson Theatre and the Nederlander Theatre, respectively.

Nederlander, the Nederlanders have built a national network of theaters including nine Broadway venues in New York: The Palace, The Brooks Atkinson, The Gershwin, The LuntFontanne, The Marquis, The Minskoff, The Nederlander, The Richard Rodgers, and The Neil Simon Theatres. Outside of New York, their venues include Broadway In Chicago at The CIBC Theatre, The James M.

PROFESSIONAL FACILITIES MANAGEMENT, INC. (PFM) PFM is a wholly-owned for-profit subsidiary of Providence Performing Arts Center (PPAC), incorporated in 1988 in response to a growing need for objective evaluation and management of small-to-medium-sized performing arts facilities in geographically-diverse locations. One of the first companies of its kind, PFM’s business is focused on what we know and do best – performing arts “product.” PFM was founded by a group of dedicated business and entertainment industry professionals who had been invited to consult and advise on a number of venue related projects in New England. They saw a need for a company that could act quickly, responsively, and decisively to both public and private facility management needs, programming needs, marketing support, and fiduciary responsibilities. Their corporate mission – to bring a wide variety of programming to the broadest audience while maintaining financial responsibility and sensitivity to local constituency needs – has guided PFM to past successes and promises future growth. PFM is governed by a Board of Directors who contribute successful business experience, entrepreneurial spirit, and a bottom-line focus. Presently, PFM holds management/booking contracts in thirteen facilities located in nine states.

Synopsis ACT ONE PROLOGUE: 1815, DIGNE After 19 years on the chain gang, Jean Valjean finds that the ticket-of-leave he must display condemns him to be an outcast. Only the Bishop of Digne treats him kindly and Valjean, embittered by years of hardship, repays him by stealing some silver. Valjean is caught and brought back by the police and is astonished when the Bishop lies to the police to save him. Valjean decides to start his life anew. 1823, MONTREUIL-SUR-MER Eight years have passed and Valjean, having broken his parole and changed his name to Monsieur Madeleine, has become a factory owner and Mayor. One of his workers, Fantine, has a secret illegitimate child. When the other women discover this, they demand her dismissal. Desperate for money to pay for medicines for her daughter, Fantine sells her locket, her hair, and then joins the whores in selling herself. Utterly degraded, she gets into a fight with a prospective customer and is about to be taken to prison by Javert when the ‘Mayor’ arrives and demands she be taken to the hospital instead. The Mayor then rescues a man pinned beneath a cart. Javert is reminded of the abnormal strength of convict 24601 Jean Valjean, who, he says, has just been recaptured. Valjean, unable to see an innocent man go to prison, confesses that he is prisoner 24601. At the hospital, Valjean promises the dying Fantine to find and look after her daughter Cosette. Javert arrives to arrest him, but Valjean escapes. 1823, MONTFERMEIL Cosette has been lodged with the Thénardiers, who horribly abuse her while indulging their own daughter, Éponine. Valjean pays the Thénardiers to let him take her away to Paris. 1832, PARIS Nine years later, there is unrest in the city because of the likely demise of the popular leader General Lamarque, the only man left in the government who shows any feeling for the poor. A street gang led by Thénardier and his wife sets upon Jean Valjean and Cosette. They are rescued by Javert, who does not recognise Valjean until he has gone.
36-D
The Thénardiers’ daughter Éponine, who is secretly in love with the student Marius, reluctantly agrees to help him find Cosette, with whom he has fallen in love. News of General Lamarque’s death circulates in the city and a group of politically-minded students stream out into the streets to whip up support for a revolution. Cosette is consumed by thoughts of Marius, with whom she has fallen in love. Éponine brings Marius to Cosette and then prevents an attempt by her father’s gang to rob Valjean’s house. Valjean, convinced it was Javert lurking outside his house, tells Cosette they must prepare to flee the country. ACT TWO The students prepare to build the barricade. Marius, noticing that Éponine has joined the insurrection, sends her away with a letter to Cosette, which is intercepted by Valjean. Éponine decides to rejoin her love at the barricade. The barricade is built and the revolutionaries defy an army warning to give up or die. Javert is exposed as a police spy. In trying to return to the barricade, Éponine is killed. Valjean arrives at the barricade in search of Marius. He is given the chance to kill Javert but instead lets him go. The students settle down for a night on the barricade and, in the quiet of the night, Valjean prays to God to save Marius. The next day the rebels are all killed. Valjean escapes into the sewers with the unconscious Marius. After meeting Thénardier, who is robbing the corpses of the rebels, he comes across Javert once more. He pleads for time to deliver the young man to the hospital. Javert lets Valjean go and, his unbending principles of justice having been shattered by Valjean’s own mercy, he kills himself. Unaware of the identity of his rescuer, Marius recovers in Cosette’s care. Valjean confesses the truth of his past to Marius and insists he must go away. At Marius and Cosette’s wedding, the Thénardiers try to blackmail Marius. Thénardier says Cosette’s ‘father’ is a murderer and as proof produces a ring which he stole from the corpse the night the barricade fell. It is Marius’s own ring and he realizes it was Valjean who rescued him that night. He and Cosette go to Valjean where Cosette learns for the first time of her own history before the old man dies.

Minimalism Brings Down Barriers In ‘THE COLOR PURPLE’ by Pia Catton
In the current revival of “The Color Purple,” rural Georgia meets spare minimalism. The action takes place on a plain wooden stage. Props are few: a cluster of well-worn chairs, woven baskets, some fabric, a Bible. Even less would be effective, said director John Doyle, who designed the set himself, as long the audience is willing to pitch in and activate their imagination. “We have Easter dinner at a table that doesn’t exist,” he said. “We put a circle of chairs together, and it makes a prison. But it only makes a prison if the audience is prepared to invest in the image.” Minimalism might seem an odd pairing with Alice Walker’s vivid, heartbreaking 1982 novel about racism, abuse and redemption in the American south. And this revival is a major contrast to the 2005 original Broadway production, which had detailed costumes and makeup that aged the characters over a half century. But Mr. Doyle, a seasoned director with four prior Broadway shows to his credit…, wanted to eliminate any barriers between the

audience and the emotional lives of the characters. Even deeper was an urge to plug the audience into the interactions onstage, just as a reader would absorb Ms. Walker’s voice via the printed page, he said. And if that requires viewers to do more than show up, that’s the plan. “I not only like it, I insist upon it,” he said gently. “If theater is going to continue to survive and grow, it has to do stuff that other art forms can’t do.” Producer Scott Sanders agrees: “In many cases, we spoon-feed audiences so much.” Mr. Doyle has developed a reputation for the style… and sees more of a connection between his most recent Broadway production, “The Visit” (2015), which was set in a rundown town, and “The Color Purple,” with its jagged, crumbling backdrop. “They both happen in broken worlds. I think we live in a broken world,” he said. “So that’s probably my way of asking the world to look at itself.”

Don’t purchase tickets from Internet scalpers! At DPAC, we’re tired of seeing unauthorized ticket brokers take advantage of DPAC ticket buyers. Don’t be fooled by online websites who mimic DPAC’s name or website and offer tickets they might not even have. You will always pay more, will rarely get the seats they advertise, and you may even receive counterfeit tickets.
•
Go directly to DPACnc.com or to Ticketmaster.com; type it in yourself, rather than using an online search. These are the only OFFICIAL ONLINE TICKETING PROVIDERS for events at DPAC.
•
If you do use a search engine, look for the official DPAC website www.DPACnc.com. Only our authentic venue site is allowed to be labeled as “official.”
•
“Speculative Listing” is when unofficial sellers list tickets for sale even though they do not actually have those tickets. They are betting they can trick you into buying tickets, often in seat locations you may not really want and at a price much higher than what others are paying for the same seats. For more information about speculative ticketing, visit this warning from Ticketmaster: https://insider.ticketmaster.com/spec-ticketing/
Avoid unsecured purchases from fraudulent and misleading online ticket brokers. Don’t overpay for your tickets. For the best prices and best selection, always go directly to DPACnc.com or Ticketmaster.com and BUY DIRECT!

D I S C OV E R B ROA DWAY Donate your tickets and give area students the chance to experience their first Broadway show ever!
DPAC’s Discover Broadway offers SunTrust Broadway members a way to donate their tickets so their valuable seats do not go unused.
During the 2018 / 2019 season, DPAC saw a 60% growth in Discover Broadway donations. Thanks to the generosity of DPAC’s Season Seat Members, over 200 seats were donated to deserving individuals including students from Durham Public Schools and Partners for Youth Opportunity plus seniors living in Durham public housing. For many, these seats provided opportunities to experience their first Broadway show ever. For the 2019 / 2020 season, DPAC’s Discover Broadway will be partnering with Durham Public Schools and North Carolina Central University to reach students in the performing arts who would otherwise be unable to attend a hit Broadway show at DPAC. By generously donating tickets you cannot use, Durham students will receive the chance to experience the magic of a hit Broadway show. These donated tickets provide the opportunity of a lifetime.
It’s easy to help: • If you know in advance that you cannot attend a show, or even if one member of your party will not be joining you, simply contact DPAC at :
DiscoverBroadway@dpacnc.com
• You will receive an acknowledgment from DPAC that your unused tickets will be reprinted for donation to an area student. • You, then, discard your original tickets and DPAC will handle all other details. * Please note: ticket donations must be made at least 72 hours prior to your scheduled performance date.

D PAC A M B A S S A D O R S In 2019, DPAC launched its second year of Performing Arts Ambassadors, a program for high school students offering a behind-the-scenes look at the live entertainment and performing arts industry. 24 students were selected from over 100 applicants, and each is able to see the diversity offered by DPAC and acquire a behind-the-scenes look at the events presented by one of the top-five theaters in America. These up-close experiences not only help students realize the importance of the arts, but also allow them first-hand experiences that may assist them one-day if they choose a career path in performing arts management. And just as important, DPAC’s Performing Arts Ambassadors are able to share their insights and experiences with other teens throughout the region via social media.

An Authentic Theater Experience
A Week-long Theater Intensive Taught by Broadway Professionals! July 27-31, 2020 at DPAC
Limited to 100 participants only ages 10-17
Next Stop Broadway® is a week-long performing arts program consisting of classes, workshops, and rehearsals focused on classic Broadway shows. The staff of Broadway professionals teaches participants songs and choreography from two hit shows from the “Golden Age of Broadway” and cast members create their own presentations based on shows in the upcoming DPAC season and other hit musicals. In addition to dance and vocal training, the program includes a mid-week “edu-tainment” segment, highlighted with film clips of Broadway shows. The week culminates with an “Opening Night” performance for family and friends on Friday afternoon followed by a cast party! Paid registrations are limited to 80 participants ages 10-17 and are accepted on a first-come, first-served basis. Twenty additional scholarships will be awarded to participants with financial need and interest in the performing arts. No theater experience needed.

H E A RT O F T H E A RT S Community Engagement — Sharing the Magic of Live Entertainment Since 2008, DPAC’s community outreach programs have been making connections between the shows DPAC presents and local students and non-profit arts organizations. Each season, DPAC coordinates educational workshops led by touring Broadway cast and crew members for Durham students interested in the performing arts. Students and their teachers have told us that DPAC’s educational outreach events are among their school year’s highlights.The chance to interact with Broadway theater professionals is inspiring; they provide real-world insights and offer students a oncein-a-lifetime experience. DPAC For All, a program started in 2018, offers reserved select balcony seating for $20 (plus taxes) per ticket exclusively for residents of Durham for most Broadway shows.This program provides an opportunity for many to experience their first-ever Broadway musical at a savings of 20% to 75%. Residents can purchase these specially discounted tickets in-person at the Blue Cross of NC - Ticket Center at DPAC. New this year, is DPAC’s Inclusion Project. The objective is to provide a DPAC VIP experience to the most deserving community members, those who make a difference for others in everyday life here in the Triangle. It’s our hope that recipients, many of whom might be first-time DPAC guests, have the opportunity to enjoy the magic of live entertainment at DPAC, as a small reward for their service in our communities. Want to nominate someone? Visit DPACnc.com/community/dpac-inclusion-project for more information.
