Based on Edmond Rostand’s 1894 play, Les Romanesques, The Fantasticks, the world’s longest-running, Tony Award-winning musical, is a captivating and simple romantic comedy about a boy named Matt, a girl named Luisa, two parents and a wall. The audience uses its imagination to follow the mischievously charming narrator, El Gallo, as he creates a world of moonlight and magic, and then pain and disillusionment, until the boy and girl find their way back to one other. The score, which includes Try to Remember, They Were You, and Soon It’s Gonna Rain, is as timeless as the story itself.

This American, classical farce tells the uproarious story of Sheridan Whiteside – critic, lecturer, radio orator, and friend of the great and near great. Having dined at the home of the prominent Stanley family in an Ohio small town, Whiteside slips on their doorstep and injures his hip. A tumultuous six weeks of convalescence follows and hilarity ensues. Written by the same talented duo of You Can’t Take it With You and Once in a Lifetime, this Broadway classic is a perfect blend of high comedy and low farce, populated by an extravagant array of eccentric but lovable characters.

Using his own life, Tennessee Williams created this exquisite memory play. Amanda Wingfield is a fading southern belle who is determined to hold her family together in any way she can. Her son, Tom, struggles to escape both his present and his past, but his love for his wounded sister, Laura, keeps him bound…forever compelled to tell the story of the night she met her gentleman caller. Filled with the heartbreaking beauty that marks Williams’ best work, The Glass Menagerie remains a compelling and timeless piece of theatre.

Rodgers & Hammerstein’s first collaboration remains, in many ways, their most innovative, having set the standards and established the rules of musical theatre still being followed today. Set in a Western Indian territory just after the turn of the century, the high-spirited rivalry between the local farmers and cowboys provides the colorful background against which Curly, a handsome cowboy, and Laurey, a winsome farm girl, play out their love story. Although the road to true love never runs smooth, with these two headstrong romantics holding the reins, love’s journey is as bumpy as a surrey ride down a country road. That they will succeed in making a new life together we have no doubt, and that this new life will begin in a brand-new state provides the ultimate climax to the triumphant OKLAHOMA!

SHOWCASE OF TALENT sponsored by The Jim Click Automotive Team - January 18, 2014
For three years in a row, the Showcase of Talent, a by-invitation-only event, and one of the few programs of its kind in the U.S., has been fully sponsored by the Jim Click Automotive Team, providing senior Acting and Musical Theatre majors an opportunity to audition for, and interview with, industry professionals (agents, directors, managers, producers and others) from around the country. The Design & Technology Division also brings professionals from theatre, film and television to meet our D/T juniors and seniors, share career advice, and provide intensive reviews of selected student portfolios. While some of our students secure employment through this process, all receive the invaluable experience of interacting with working professionals – and this couldn’t have happened without the sponsorship support of the Jim Click Automotive Team and gifts from community members! We are tremendously grateful to the Jim Click Automotive Team for funding the Showcase of Talent event for 2012, 2013 & 2014. We are also grateful to the kind and generous donors of this program. Thank you! The Theatre Program Advisory Board extensively supports the annual Showcase of Talent event through its fundraising efforts. You can help support this unique program with a donation to the Showcase of Talent Endowment Fund by calling (520) 626-2686 or visiting uafoundation.org/give/fund/SOTEndowment Your gift qualifies as a tax-deductible donation.

Adventure Matinees
The School of Theatre, Film & Television Studio Series is dedicated to supporting the original and contemporary pieces of performance through a ‘bare essentials’ production format that draws primary focus to the artistic and intellectual labor of theatre students. Its community-centered, people-generated approach to performance provides creative learning opportunities for student artists, thought-provoking experiences for audiences, and occasions for productive dialogue about topics relevant to student populations and the broader Tucson community.
See tomorrow’s stars today! New Faces introduces some of the newest members of the School of Theatre, Film & Television – our freshman and sophomore BFA Acting and Musical Theatre students. These performances provide a venue for the students to share their talents with an audience early in their theatre training.
Our special school-time matinees are a great way to introduce high school students to the excitement of live theatre and to provide learning experiences that are relevant to classroom activities. All performances are at 10am. One complimentary chaperone ticket is provided for every 10 paid student tickets.
General Admission: all seats $7

Book Encore! for Your Group or Special Event by Anton Chekhov, translated by Paul Schmidt directed by David Morden Featuring The Proposal, The Wedding Reception & The Festivities These three one-acts all begin with seemingly normal situations that lead to complete, comedic chaos. Situational irony is what binds these fun tales together and makes them relevant even today. Feb 27 – Mar 1 at 8pm and Mar 2 at 2pm Harold Dixon Directing Studio, Drama Bldg. (Rm. 116)
Each year, Encore! presents a lively revue from the best of Broadway and musical theatre. This is excellent entertainment for your organization’s special event, social program, or celebration. Performances run approximately 60 minutes. Bookings are available January, 2014 through April, 2014. Patrons interested in attending the December, on-campus performance of Encore! should call the Fine Arts Box Office at (520) 621-1162. Groups interested in booking Encore! to perform on location for their organization should contact Charles Cannon at (520) 621-3363 or ccannon@email.arizona.edu.
Encountering Chekhov & Act One by Noah Haidle directed by Matt Bowdren Mr. Marmalade is 4-year-old Lucy’s imaginary friend – an amalgamation of her mother’s boyfriends and TV actors she has watched – but this is not a story for children. Billed as a dark comedy that’s also shocking at times, this story possesses a humorous and biting commentary on how children are raised nowadays, unwittingly subjected to topics like cocaine addiction, personal assistant abuse and child pregnancy. Apr 24-26 at 8pm and Apr 27 at 2pm Harold Dixon Directing Studio, Drama Bldg. (Rm. 116)
Check signage in the Drama Building lobby for discussion location. SCHOOL OF THEATRE, FILM & TELEVISION
Each year on the final day of the Spring semester, sophomore BFA Acting and Musical Theatre majors perform scenes from the works of Anton Chekhov.

We do not offer Adventure Matinees for our musicals, but if you are interested in bringing a group, special rates are available. Call (520) 621-3363 for more information.
