Applause magazine is funded in part by

at the acrobatic feats choreographed by Gypsy Snider of Les 7 doigts de la main, the creative force behind our sold-out 2011 run of Traces. The opening of Pippin makes this the third major Broadway touring premiere in the past three years, proving that Denver is not just a hub but the hub for the best theatre in the West.

But why stop at two revivals if you can be — as we call it in theatre — a triple threat. The DCPA has been revived, refreshed and reinvigorated as well. In buying your ticket and reading this issue of Applause, you can see a visible change — an all-new website, an updated logo and a recommitment to you, our most valuable member.

You remain the focus of our work. Your experience defines our success. And your active participation — especially through shared experiences at Molly Brown, Pippin or any of the 30+ shows we will offer this season — is what inspires us every day. Thank you for giving us purpose.

When a revived take on The Unsinkable Molly Brown was read at our 2009 Colorado New Play Summit, a packed crowd of theatre leaders from across the nation collectively sat up and took notice. Five years, four entirely new songs and many revisions later, we’re delighted that you are the first audience to witness theatre history in the making.

Directed by three-time Tony Award-winning choreographer Kathleen Marshall with an allnew (and more factual) book by Dick Scanlan, our creative team has 27 Tony nominations and six wins among them. And we’re glad to welcome back Beth Malone and Burke Moses — both of whom are returning to the Theatre Company as Molly and J.J. Brown. We’ve pulled out all the stops and have high hopes that this story of Denver’s own rags-to-riches heroine will set sail for adventures far beyond our own landlocked state.

Just across the way in The Buell, we’re launching an equally anticipated debut — the 2013 Tony Award winner for Best Musical Revival, Pippin. Big names headline this big show including Lucie Arnaz, John Rubinstein (who starred as the title character when it originated on Broadway in 1972), Kyle Selig and Sasha Allen, a finalist on “The Voice.” You’ll be amazed

Molly brown The Rags-to-Riches Story of Denver’s Heroine

Illustration by Kyle Malone

by John Moore

“C

“This is not a documentary.

This is a historical fiction. This is the journey of Molly Brown, and part of that is her journey as a woman, and her marriage.“ — Kathleen Marshall, director

10

“Colorado, My Home!” Molly Brown sings out in the Denver Center for the Performing Arts’ highly anticipated new staging of The Unsinkable Molly Brown.

It’s true of the title character. It’s true of the actor singing it. And, thanks to many forces coming together at just the right time, it’s also true of the musical itself.

The Unsinkable Molly Brown is coming back to life as a fully staged production right here in the Titanic survivor’s adopted home state. And it even stars Colorado native Beth Malone in the title role.

That the public’s first look at the new Molly Brown is happening here in Denver, three-time Tony Award-winning Director Kathleen Marshall said, is perfect.

“To do this story about one of the most famous residents in Denver history in what became her hometown?” she said.

“There’s no better word for it.”

Molly Brown tells the story of perhaps the most colorful woman in Colorado history. The original 1960 Broadway musical was beloved by some but was also problematic, and it has since drifted amiably toward the musical horizon.

Enter writer Dick Scanlan, a three-time Tony nominee and a devotee of both

composer Meredith Willson (The Music Man) and book writer Richard Morris (Thoroughly Modern Millie). Scanlan got the idea to revisit The Unsinkable Molly Brown in 2006 and ultimately earned permission from Willson’s widow to revisit both her husband’s score and Morris’ book.

“Dick has kept the songs you love… and hopefully he’s gotten rid of the ones you don’t,” Producing Artistic Director Kent Thompson said. And, in perhaps the most intriguing twist of all, Rosemary Willson also allowed Scanlan to add four previously unpublished Willson songs, making for a theatrical presentation that is at once old…and new again.

The creators have been gifted with a life story of near-mythic proportions.

Molly Brown was a factory girl who transformed herself from a teenage illiterate into American royalty. She was a human-rights activist and philanthropist who famously survived the sinking of the Titanic. She and husband J.J. Brown moved to Denver after striking it rich when they discovered gold in one of Leadville’s silver mines. How rich?

Try $20 million rich. Though snubbed

by high society, Molly Brown raised money for children’s causes, fought for workers’ rights at her husband’s own mines, and twice ran for Senate before women even had the right to vote.

In Molly Brown’s 1932 obituary, The Denver Post’s Jack Carberry wrote: “She was a pot rustler who, shamed by her ignorance, mastered music, literature and the arts to storm the portals and pass the barriers of society.”

But while Scanlan promises audiences will see a much deeper Molly Brown than they did in the 1960 original, The Unsinkable Molly Brown remains very much a musical. And a musical comedy at that.

“This is not a documentary,” Marshall added. “This is a historical fiction. This is the journey of Molly Brown as a woman, and her marriage.”

That means this is also a romance.

“Oh it is very much a romance,” Scanlan said.

Though Molly and J.J. signed a separation agreement after two children and 23 years of marriage, they continued to care for each other until J.J.’s death.

“These are two people who can’t live with each other and can’t live without each other,” Marshall said. “They are both single-minded and pig-headed.

That’s what thrills them about each other, but it also causes enormous problems between them.”

Experts say the Browns never divorced only because the Catholic Church would never have allowed it,

KATHLEEN MARSHALL Hometown: Pittsburgh First Broadway musical attended: Gypsy, starring Angela Lansbury, 1974 Favorite Broadway star: “Certainly Gwen Verdon and Chita Rivera are pretty high up there.”

but Marshall thinks anyone who has been in a long-term relationship can identify with the bond that continued throughout the Brown’s lives.

“I think that’s recognizable to audiences, and I think that’s human,” Marshall said.

If we know anything about theatre audiences, we know this: They love strong women, they love stories they already know, and, more than anything: Audiences love love.

In all three of those areas, Marshall said, this new Molly Brown should be smooth sailing.

“I love the fact that we have a strong female character at the center of it driving the narrative,” she said. “The score is Americana at its best. It’s big and strong and openhearted and optimistic. Those are the same qualities this show has, and Molly Brown has.”

Marshall hopes she has created something “that entertains and delights and amuses audiences…and perhaps moves them as well.”

Judi Wolf’s Costume Column Five-time Tony-nominated costume designer Paul Tazewell sees a little bit of Molly Brown in Kim Kardashian.

Wait, what?

Well…Brown was a Missouri factory worker by age 13 who rose to international celebrity after a sensational ocean disaster. And Kardashian achieved notoriety after a sensational sex tape. Both then struggled to fit in within the day’s fashion standards.

“It was lovely what Kim had on at the Emmys,” Tazewell said. “She was trying, but it was a little too tight and a little bright. She didn’t get it quite right for what was appropriate.”

Meet Molly Brown.

Molly made her own dresses and

some of her choices were questionable when poor taste was unforgivable. In designing The Unsinkable Molly Brown, the challenge is to communicate Brown’s relationship to any community — Leadville to Paris — through her fashion choices.

“The other women’s clothes will always set the appropriate tone,” Tazewell said. “And when Molly comes in, you’ll be able to see what she didn’t get right.”

While the actresses will wear corsets, petticoats, layers “and all kinds of underwear,” Tazewell said, the real fun “will be showing Molly’s evolution. Over time, within her idea of what tasteful is, she becomes more tasteful.”

Reimagined 40 Years Later

by John Moore

S

Stephen Schwartz likes to joke that somewhere, “Bob Fosse is surely looking up and laughing.”

He kids about the direction. But not the director. Fosse was Schwartz’s legendary collaborator on the musical Pippin, which in post-war 1972 brought a surreal collision of violence, innocence and sexuality to the Broadway stage.

Fosse, known for his provocative choreography and fiery temper, died in 1987. Last year, a significantly reimagined Pippin won the Tony Award for Best Musical Revival, and its new national touring production is currently launching in Denver.

“I think Bob would be thrilled with this,” said Schwartz, the composer who 42 years ago openly questioned the darkness and overindulgence that Fosse brought to Schwartz’s sweet story of a naïve boy searching for meaning in his life.

“There were specific choices Bob made that I honestly thought were heavy-handed and crude, and not in a good way,” Schwartz said. But now at age 66, Schwartz added, “I joke that I have ironically become the defender of Bob’s vision.”

Pippin began as a 17-year-old Schwartz’s spin-off of The Lion in Winter, a play about the foibles of King Henry II in 1183. Over the next seven years, the Pippin project came to reflect Schwartz’s own journey as a young man in his 20s.

Fosse, then 47, agreed to direct and choreograph Pippin

20

if allowed to make the story more dark and sophisticated.

Fosse brought in Ben Vereen, fresh off his electric performance in Jesus Christ Superstar, to play the Leading Player, a narrator of sorts who leads Pippin down many dangerous roads.

Some see Pippin as the story of Fosse as the Leading Player, and young Schwartz as the restless prince.

“I think that’s accurate, particularly in talking about me at age 24,” Schwartz said. “Bob’s was the more worldly-wise point of view. And [book writer] Roger Hirson, who was in his 40s when we opened, may have been the Charlemagne character.”

Schwartz would be the first to admit that Pippin, with its signature Fosse look and feel, was a quintessential theatrical time capsule for the mid-1970s. “So much of Pippin was of its time,” Schwartz said. But over the next 40 years, the lid on the time capsule was never closed.

Schwartz and Hirson were approached dozens of times by artists wanting to revisit Pippin. But they always said no.

“Frankly, I think merely reproducing the original, if that were even possible, would have felt quite dated,” Schwartz said. “And none of the new approaches made much sense to us.”

There would be big challenges. “The Fosse choreography is so iconic, and the performance of Ben Vereen was so indelible, even to people who didn’t actually see it,”

“ How far are we willing to go to be extraordinary in our lives?

That question is at the heart of Pippin’s journey.”

— Diane Paulus, director Schwartz said. “So it really needed a concept that was going to overcome all that without obliterating the show.

And that was quite difficult to come by.”

Enter Diane Paulus, the groundbreaking director who brought the Vietnam musical Hair back to explosive life on Broadway in 2009.

Her idea? The mysterious troupe of performers would now be a circus family. She approached Les 7 doigts de la main, the same Canadian circus troupe that brought Traces to Denver in 2011. Now the young prince’s quest for meaning would be a deathdefying one, set against live and often breathtaking acrobatics.

And it was no gimmick.

“It wasn’t about layering something on that didn’t need to be there,” Paulus said. “It was about the theme of the story: How far are we willing to go to be extraordinary in our lives? That question is at the heart of Pippin’s journey. And that question is at the heart of every circus performer’s life. And it’s literal: How far will I go? Will I jump and land upside down on someone’s hand? Will I leap through a hoop on fire? How far can I push my human body to aspire to be extraordinary?”

And working live circus into Pippin makes the theme of the story a concrete experience for the audience, Paulus said. “Because those acrobatic tricks you see are real, every night.

With every performance, those are real, extraordinary achievements happening on that stage.”

Schwartz and Hinson were trepidatious at first. “But I think I can speak for Roger when I say we have been totally won over,” Schwartz said. “Frankly, I think Diane is a better director of scenes and actors than Bob Fosse was. And consequently, I think the story is better told.”

This new Pippin is different from the 1972 original in two other significant ways. The Leading Player is now played by a woman, and the story has a very different ending.

“Ben Vereen’s performance was so iconic that I think just the memory of it was a huge problem for us to overcome,” Schwartz said. So when Diane said, ‘Well, what if the Leading Player is a woman?’ that made us all think, ‘Well, then you can’t be sitting there saying, ‘It’s not Ben Vereen.’

And that is a criticism I think any male performer would have encountered.”

In fact, the Leading Player in the revival now has such a specific female sensibility that Schwartz has a tough time imagining the character played by a male again.

As for the ending, Schwartz will only say, “This is so clearly the right ending for the show. And it’s something I think Bob Fosse would have been happy with if we were smart enough to think about it then.”

Next up from Broadway:

Kinky Boots Cyndi Lauper wrote the music for the 2013 Tony-winning best musical, Kinky Boots (Oct 29 – Nov 9). Here are excerpts from her exclusive interview with John Moore. Read the full interview at denvercenter.org.

Q: In this era of safe Broadway musicals based on existing titles, why do you think Kinky Boots broke through?

A: Because the show has a huge heart.

It’s a story about love and acceptance and friendship and overcoming obstacles, and everyone can relate to that.

Q: Why does Kinky Boots appeal so strongly to younger adult audiences?

A: Before radio, Broadway music was Top 40 music, and I really tried hard to honor that tradition with Kinky Boots by writing songs that people would want to listen to at home after leaving the theater, or without even seeing the show.

Q: Can you name other rock artists you would most love to see write for Broadway?

A: I am thrilled to see two of my favorites — David Byrne and Carole King — with shows on Broadway. I would love to see Cher, Prince and Joni Mitchell with shows on Broadway.

Q: Your song, “True Colors,” has become a lasting anthem of hope.

What does that song mean to you?

A: ... A very good friend of mine was dying from AIDS. He had a horrific childhood. He had been abused [mainly] because he was gay. When he was dying, he asked me to record a song so that he would not be forgotten. So I sang the song for Gregory and for everyone who has been rejected for being who they are or for anyone who feels unloved. If we all could just accept each other for who we are the world would be a beautiful place!

By the way, that’s also the message of Kinky Boots!

Q: What do you want audiences to know about what they are in for?

“ At United, we take our role as a community partner and corporate citizen seriously, and we are proud to support the DCPA.” — Michelle Baden, Managing Director of Corporate and Government Affairs

As the world’s leading airline, United does more than connect passengers through safe, convenient air travel; it forges strong relationships with the people and communities it serves.

United is pleased to serve as the official airline for the Denver Center for the Performing Arts (DCPA) and proudly supports its remarkable contributions to the performing arts community in Denver and beyond. Together with the DCPA, United celebrates the energy that artists, performers and dancers bring to Denver and the global stage.

“At United, we take our role as a community partner and corporate citizen seriously, and we are proud to support the DCPA. With more than 75 years of service to the Mile High City, we are also proud of our long-standing commitment to the Denver community that thousands of co-workers and customers call home,” said Michelle Baden, Managing Director of Corporate and Government Affairs.

In addition to the DCPA, United is honored to support several Colorado organizations including the Colorado Symphony Orchestra, Denver Botanic Gardens, Denver Public Schools Foundation, Latin American Educational Foundation, and Starlight Children’s Foundation of Colorado.

United co-workers also have donated more than 5,000 hours of service to various local partner initiatives, such as the Food Bank of the Rockies, and proceeds from its Pink Program have gone to the Denver Health Foundation Women’s Mobile Clinic to make cervical and breast cancer screens more readily available.

We, at United, are sponsoring more than 400 children at a student matinee performance of Lord of the Flies to share the thrill of a live theatrical performance — and we love bringing smiles to hundreds of local children undergoing medical treatment through the annual holiday “Fantasy Flights” trip to the North Pole and teddy bear deliveries to Rocky Mountain Hospital for Children and Children’s Hospital Colorado.

“Our economy thrives on the generation of ideas, not just the manufacturing of goods and products,” says Vectra Bank Colorado President and CEO Bruce Alexander. “Learning to think both critically and creatively about solutions enables us to successfully navigate an increasingly complex world.”

Established in 1988, Vectra has maintained its commitment to efforts and organizations that advance communities through revitalization, economic development, affordable housing—and the arts—around the state. Vectra employees volunteer for and support numerous arts institutions throughout Colorado as part of Vectra’s mission to support community, innovation and discussion.

“One of Vectra’s goals is to be an active listener and observer of business and economic trends, and to share that information with our clients, so they can anticipate and plan for the future,” says Alexander. “Not only do arts provide those critical experiences that can open minds and hearts to an entirely different way of thinking, but they are part of our economy and a key component of why Colorado continues to be a great place to live and do business.

“We are honored to partner with organizations that give so generously to enable communities to flourish,” he continues. “We are privileged to be part of the Denver Center for the Performing Arts whose caliber is undeniable, from the performances it showcases to the experiences it delivers, to its educational outreach.”

As part of Zions Bancorporation, Vectra, with 40 locations throughout the state, has the personal feel of community banks and the reach and resources of larger institutions. Its bankers focus on all stages of life and cycles of a business with a proactive approach to help advance clients’ financial goals.

Whether the customer is the manager of a growing Colorado company, an individual consumer or someone looking for support in wealth management planning, all will find at Vectra Bank an innovative banking organization eager to surpass their expectations.

Lord of the Flies,

It is inaccurate to call William Golding’s Lord of the Flies a dysptopian novel. It was conceived, consciously or not, as a fiction about a dystopian society.

Written in 1954, the story is about a group of boys who become stranded on a desert island. With no adults around, they rejoice at their freedom, but their good intentions take some disturbing turns that finally become disastrous. It is this layer of complexity that gave the book its notoriety.

Call it a fable or an allegory about the dangers of dysfunction, but that train left the station long ago. The times we live in have overtaken the turmoil Golding cautioned us about.

We now look at Lord of the Flies not through the prism of fantasy so much as that of fully realized self-knowledge.

In John Carey’s biography of Golding, he explains the book’s origins.

Golding and his wife read bedtime stories to their children, including a book popular at the time called The Coral Island. Golding, who went on to win a Nobel Prize in 1983, began to see these tales as unrealistic and chose to write “a book about children on an island…who behave in the way children really would behave.” Little did he know that it would result in such a life-changing novel.

An Unintended Prophecy b y S y lv i e D r a k e

“ Respect and love for others is what’s needed.

That’s what the play points to.

So, yeah, that is certainly what I’m going to try to get out of it.”

— Anthony Powell, director Why, 60 years later, has the Theatre Company chosen this adaptation for middle and high school students?

“It’s a cracking good yarn,” says director Anthony Powell. “I read the book in seventh or eighth grade. It was the book for guys of my generation that brought you from juvenile

reading to adult reading. Golding loved The Coral Island,” from which he even plucked some of his own book’s character names. “The evil in Coral Island,” says Powell, “is cannibals; Golding places the evil within us.”

Lord of the Flies was not a hit out of the gate and even encountered pushback — something Powell finds astonishing.

“When I look at computer games and what kids are doing these days, I’m shocked. I’m amazed that some parents get bent by Lord of the Flies.

It’s still on some challenged and banned books lists. Well, you can get hung up on the moral under it and you can, if you wish, pull the Christian values out of it — you know, imperfectible man and original sin and all that. But despite the irony, despite the cynicism, it ends by offering a glimpse of redemption. There is a pay-off.

“The older I get, the less interested I am in ‘life’s a bitch and then you die.’ That concept is interesting when you’re 26. Respect and love for others is what’s needed. That’s what the play points to. So, yeah, that is certainly what I’m going to try to get out of it.”

In short, we are not only what we eat, but also what we do. Is the evil really in us already?

“I won’t be answering that one,” Powell replies. “If Western Civilization hasn’t been able to grapple with that, I don’t think I can. What scares me, as I look at what goes on in the world, is the absence of empathy. Maybe not everyone, maybe not all the time, because, sure, we’re all capable of anything, yet if empathy can be part of one’s education, then there’s hope.

That’s what disturbs me about the technological world. The isolation and all the machines. Empathy melts away.

It’s just not valued.”

Busloads of middle and high schoolers will attend the production and it’s debatable who’ll get the most out of it. You want to say high schoolers because they’re older but, says Powell, “Middle schoolers may be more important because, in my memory, seventh and eighth graders were the Lords of the Flies. I remember wanton cruelty, because everyone’s changing so fast and no one knows what the heck is going on inside them. In high school at least you find your group. In my case it was a group of interesting freaks.”

On a more practical level, what are the plans for creating the island setting?

“It’s complicated, especially in the round,” notes the director. “Jim

Kronzer, the designer, is a real gift. He knows the round and knows how not to be literal all of the time. We’ll have sand on stage; it’s the right way to go. We’re also using Charlie Miller and some of his magic with digital projections.

“I was a bit shy about going there,” he adds. “Will it tell the story? One of the images that recurs in the novel is of the island as this living ‘thing,’ almost breathing sometimes. And at night. You know the kinds of hallucinations kids have. I call it the Ghostbusters School. When the lights go out, what’s that moving? Should we be worried whether there is a beast there or not…?”

Which brings up an interesting point.

“We live in a time of war and terrorism, when we are constantly manipulated by fear,” Powell says. “That’s also what happens on the island. One doesn’t trust anything anymore. I can only imagine that kids coming up feel the same way and I hope we can get some of that out of the play too — how fear gets used and what we can do to resist it.”

Student matinees imagination takes flight

More than 7,300 middle and high school students will swarm one of 17 Student Matinees at Lord of the Flies.

These students represent 65 schools from 15 counties and nearly one-third will attend on scholarship.

Expanding upon the success of the popular Student Matinee program, Producing Artistic Director Kent Thompson carefully selects one title each season that appeals to school groups. According to Thompson, “Lord of the Flies is universal in its appeal—I read it, my son read it, and children read it today in school. It’s terrifying and captivating, showing the best and worst of humanity.”

For some students, it’s an extension of the classroom. For others it is the first time they experience a live performance. The effect can be life changing. “You all touched my heart and inspired me in many ways,” said middle school student Malie Sanchez-Valdez.

“I enjoyed watching you guys live your dream, thinking that someday I will too!”

Lord of the Flies is made possible because of generous education sponsors: Corley Legacy Foundation, Keith & Kathie Finger, Alan & Katie Fox, Thomas D. Lookabaugh Foundation, Walter S. Rosenberry, III Charitable Trust, Alison & Jim Shetter and June Travis.

TO EVERYONE AT THE Denver Center for the

Performing Arts

THANKS

FOR REMINDING US WHAT IT MEANS TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE.

For more than 18 years, we have proudly partnered with the Denver Center for the Performing Arts (DCPA), one of the largest performing arts organizations in the nation right here in our community.

At HealthONE, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve seen first-hand the positive impacts the arts have on our health and well-being: The soothing effect of music on people in pain; the regaining of muscle strength through drawing or painting; the stress-relieving enjoyment of live performances after a hard or emotional day.

Without the venues and resources the DCPA provides, we would not be able to enjoy incredible performances. We are proud to sponsor this and many other productions, and we hope you take time to appreciate the benefits these great shows bring to your own life.
