WELCOME Dear Friends,

at Playhouse Square

n behalf of our artists, staff and Board of Trustees, welcome to Great Lakes Theater’s 57th season! Our mission, “to bring the pleasure, power and relevance of classic theater to the widest possible audience,” guides our mainstage productions as well as our educational programming, in the belief that theater holds the capacity to illuminate truth and enduring values, celebrate and challenge human nature and actions and provide our student audiences a glimpse of a broader world and the wellspring of learning made possible through the arts. We open this season with the smash hit, feel-good musical, Mamma Mia!. Following in the footsteps of GLT’s recent productions of The Hunchback of Notre Dame and My Fair Lady, director Victoria Bussert’s staging highlights the intimacy of the Hanna Theatre, enabling the story-telling magic of pop-hit songs and the enchanting tale of love to take center stage. Playing in rotating repertory with Mamma Mia!, Joseph Hanreddy’s inventive adaption and staging of Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice brings a world of irresistible romance and comedy to our Parker Hannifin Stage. I hope you will enjoy witnessing, as I do, our experienced and talented company of artists move seamlessly from a large-scale musical to an elegant classic. As the curtain rises on our 57th season, we offer special thanks to the Kulas Foundation, which has sponsored our musical productions for the last several years as part of the Kulas Musical Theater Series at Great Lakes Theater. This fall, we are also deeply grateful to John and Barbara Schubert as well as The John and Susan Lebold Family for their generous support of our production of Pride and Prejudice. And when you read through your program, you will see the names of many friends, partners, corporations and foundations whose generous support makes all of this possible. I encourage you to join these donors by becoming a member of the Great Lakes Theater family with your gift. We extend our sincere gratitude to all of our sponsors and annual members, with continued appreciation to our partners of more than 35 years at Playhouse Square, and the tireless efforts of our Board of Trustees, dedicated administrative staff, gifted artists and the tremendous generosity of this community. I hope to see you in our audience again soon.

ABOUT GREAT LAKES THEATER

he mission of Great Lakes Theater (GLT), through its mainstage productions and its education programs, is to bring the pleasure, power and relevance of classic theater to the widest possible audience. Since the company’s inception in 1962, programming has been rooted in Shakespeare, but GLT’s commitment to great plays spans the breadth of all cultures, forms of theater and time periods –– including the 20th century –– and provides for the occasional mounting of new works that complement the classical repertoire. Classic theater holds the capacity to illuminate truth and enduring values, celebrate and challenge human nature and actions, revel in eloquent language, and preserve the traditions of diverse cultures and generate communal spirit. On its mainstage and through its education programs, GLT seeks to create visceral, immediate experiences for participants, asserting theater’s historic role as a vehicle for advancing the common good and helping people make the joyful and meaningful connections between classic plays and their own lives.

The company’s commitment to classic theater is magnified in the educational programming that surround its productions. Since its inception, GLT has had a strong presence in area schools, bringing students to the theater for matinee performances and sending specially trained actor-teachers to the schools for weeklong residencies developed to explore classic drama from a theatrical point of view. GLT is equally dedicated to enhancing the theater experience for adult audiences. To this end, GLT regularly serves as the catalyst for community events and programs in the arts and humanities that illuminate the plays on its stage. Great Lakes Theater is one of only a handful of American theaters that have stayed the course as a classic theater. As GLT approaches a decade in its permanent home at the Hanna Theatre, the company reaffirms its belief in the power of partnership, its determination to make this community a better place in which to live, and its commitment to ensure the legacy of classic theater in Cleveland.

SPOTLIGHT ON MAMMA MIA!

hirty-six years after breaking up, the Swedish rock band ABBA remains one of the most popular bands in the history of pop music. Recognized for their subversive music, their simple, direct, and sometimes solemn lyrics were masked in a bright, cheery fashion with a beat that is irresistible. The band catapulted to success in 1974 but wasn’t accepted by club DJ’s until the mid-’80s at a time when AIDS was horribly destroying a community. Several of ABBA’s songs became anthems for forlorn people trying to keep their humor amid unbearable grief.

at Playhouse Square

Ten years after the group disbanded and following their resurgence in the club scene, ABBA Gold, a greatest hits compilation, was released in 1992. The album became the second-largest-selling album in the UK, surpassed only by The Beatles, and marked the revitalization of ABBA in the collective conscience. Seven years later, Mamma Mia! exploded. Referred to as a jukebox musical — a show that features popular songs from a particular artist or variety of artists — Mamma Mia! left an undeniable impact on modern musical theater history. Between the 1970s and its debut in 1999, there were only 17 shows that fell into the category of jukebox musical. Post its meteoric splash, there have been more than 70 jukebox musicals created: Jersey Boys, We Will Rock You, Rock of Ages, Beautiful and Escape to Margaritaville, to name a few. Mamma Mia! trail-blazed an entire genre into popularity and elevated a style that currently dominates Broadway. Spanning over 440 cities and countries — including London, New York, Australia, Germany, Russia and China — Mamma Mia! has brought more than 60 million people into theaters across the globe to indulge in an evening of joy and nostalgia. From a movement perspective, the most engaging thing to watch is the authentic expression of self. Musicals don’t typically give you that. Often you’re met with a glorious synchronicity of stylized dancers. Not to say that those artists aren’t genuine within the confines of what they’re doing — they are. Yet this art form can sometimes lack the sense of spontaneity and individual representation one only finds at weddings, parties and clubs — prime outlets for anyone to jump up and live in their own self-expression. With ABBA’s infectious music, Mamma Mia! offers the opportunity to embrace the freedom of being on an open dance floor while celebrating the enormous influence the group has had on pop culture and honoring the spirit of abandonment they imbued in their fans all over the world. Jaclyn Miller Choreographer, Mamma Mia!

Original screenplays: Rag Doll and Where’s Willy? (HTV) and Sin Bin (BBC), the series Love in the 21st Century (Channel 4) and Dappers (BBC3). Awards: Catherine has won the Bristol Old Vic/HTV Playwrighting Award, Thames Television’s Writer-in-Residence Award and Thames Television’s Best Play

Award and was nominated in 2002 for a Tony Award for Best Musical Book for Mamma Mia! Film: Catherine wrote the screenplay for the Mamma Mia! movie released July 2008. Björn Ulvaeus Björn Ulvaeus was born in 1945 in Gothenberg on the west coast of Sweden. After a successful local career in Sweden with a folk group in the mid-1960s, he started his collaboration with Benny Andersson. They then went on to form ABBA with Agnetha Faltskog and Anni-Frid Lyngstad. Even during the ABBA years, the idea of writing a musical seemed appealing and, in 1981, Björn and Benny met Tim Rice and co-wrote Chess with him, which opened in the West End in 1986. In 1995, Björn and Benny opened a new musical Kristina Från Duvemåla, which played for three years in Sweden. Their most recent musical is the Stockholm production Hjälp sökes, which opened in 2013. Bjorn is one of the producers for Mamma Mia! The Party, which opened in Stockholm in January 2016.

STRATEGIC ALLIANCE In 2002, Great Lakes Theater (Cleveland, Ohio) and Idaho Shakespeare Festival (Boise, Idaho) conceived a unique, strategic producing alliance designed to maximize return on organizational investments, increase production efficiencies, create long term work opportunities for artists and share best practices. In 2010, Lake Tahoe Shakespeare Festival (Incline Village, Nevada) joined the collaborative — further contributing to the momentum of the revolutionary producing prototype's success. The long term results have been remarkable. The alliance's three independent, 501c3 regional theaters have shared over 50 jointly-created productions — each featuring long term, multi-city employment opportunities for artistic company members. This revolutionary producing model has realized its vision and exceeded expectations while simultaneously resulting in notable audience growth for each company.
