MIRACLE ON 34TH STREET 3 STC 2014.2015 SEASON

CALEB MARSHALL, ARTISTIC DIRECTOR

We hope this family favourite renews your sense of awe and wonder, and fills you with Christmas cheer.Welcome back to the magic of theatre, Made all the more magic at this special time of year.

This Play is very near and dear to my heart – not only as one of my favourite Christmas classics but one I brought to the stage in a new adaptation last year which was so successful it is being produced by two theatre companies this year.

The experience premiering this production was so positive I am thrilled to say almost all of the original cast and creative team jumped at a chance to re-visit it and make it our Christmas gift to you. This is a holiday experience all your friends and family can enjoy, whether you are reliving it again or discovering it for the very first time – this is a new take on a nostalgic and familiar favourite.

This will be one of the biggest and most ambitious holiday productions in recent memory at STC and the entire staff has gone above and beyond to make sure we create a lasting memory that will set you in the holiday spirit. We’d like to thank and wish the happiest of holidays to our funders, sponsors and you our patrons.

You might consider STC for a dramatic holiday gift; our colourful season includes something for all ages. If you and your young family enjoy Miracle on 34th Street you might consider Charlie and the Chocolate Factory or There’s a Mouse in My House, or for the adults on your list we have A Brimful of Asha, Red and In Piazza San Domenico. Share the experience of live theatre this Christmas.

In January we are pleased to bring you a powerful Canadian play, Mourning Dove, which asks the question “how far would you go for your child?” inspired by the true life of Robert Latimer and his family, this play touches the soul and challenges our perception of the difference between life and living.

Miracle on 34th Street is about the growing importance of keeping holiday spirit alive in our increasingly busy modern world. From the heartfelt story, to the wonderfully talented cast, to the beautiful original music and the inspired design we think it may do just that.

STC believes in the power of generosity,In the spirit of goodwill and fighting for a cause.STC believes Christmas is more than just a day,Most of all, we believe in Santa Claus.

A WORD FROM THE DIRECTOR

CALEB MARSHALL

I believe that the holidays should be a time full of nostalgia that reminds us of our childhood sense of awe and wonder. Through the stories from our youth – the stories that have become holiday traditions, shared over generations – we can capture that feeling, especially with the stories seen through the eyes of a child.

However when it comes to beloved classic Christmas titles, there are really only a handful of great ones to choose from, and perhaps even fewer great scripts to stage. How then do we give our audience what they are looking for – how do we kick off the holiday season and set a tone for the most magical times of year? Programming at Christmas is something many theatre producers struggle with and sometimes the best solution is to create it yourself. This was a daunting undertaking, but one I knew our exceptional creative team could tackle – to bring a Christmas gift that was not only full of nostalgia, but had themes as relevant and timely now as they ever were. We began, not with the classic film script, but rather with a Lux radio dramatization of the story by Valentine Davis, which is in the public domain, as the base source material for the script. I began by roughly transferring the work to the stage, filling in some gaps in the writing and – perhaps my hardest task – hammering out how to double the characters, turning a huge cast into a tight ensemble that could still represent a cross section of society and span generations. Then began a back and forth with Dramaturge Erin Keating that saw re-writes, tough questions, problem solving and additional writing that filled out the story and added more humour and heart. We took this adaptation from just transferring a story to the stage to one written specifically for the stage. Michael Eagan is one of the country’s best set and costume designers and this script put him to the test. There are numerous locations and we both wanted to preserve the magic of theatre – the ‘miracle’ of the script – and never see any furniture being set up or struck, but rather just appear. We arrived at a trompe l’oeil and perspective approach for the visuals, techniques that nowadays are considered old-fashioned but seemed appropriate for imagining the heightened reality of the adult world of Macy’s Department Store and a New York courtroom as seen through the eyes of a little girl in an almost storybook-like fashion.

Michael Doherty is a wonderful composer but is perhaps at his best when writing for Christmas – the various themes he devised help to focus the journey of our key characters and capture a busy, bustling New York City during the holidays, as well as highlight some of the darker more sinister moments in the story. All of this is sculpted and punctuated by Tristan Tidswell’s imaginative lighting. However, when all is said and done – acting is what makes theatre work. I am thrilled to have such a wonderfully diverse and talented ensemble that span from 10 to 76 years of age – all of them capturing the spirit everyone remembers from the film, but each bringing their own take to the characters, filling them with heart and humour. Miracle on 34th Street, a Christmas classic for more than 65 years, pits the idea of faith and believing against our realistic contemporary world. What if Santa Claus made himself known today? Would he be dismissed as crazy? Would he have to maneuver the legal system to prove his identity? Is it even possible to prove “joy and love and all the other intangibles?” This story of triumph of faith over greed and goodwill over commercialism is as relevant and meaningful now as is ever was. Thank you to the cast, creative team, production and administrative staff for making it possible to take a beloved story and make it fresh and new for the holidays. Our gift to you.

SETTING & TIMENew York City, Thanksgiving day to Christmas day, 1948

There will be one 15-minute interval.

This adaptation of Miracle on 34th Street was first produced by Theatre New Brunswick (TNB) and premiered at The Fredericton Playhouse December 5, 2013 with the following cast: (left to right) Robert Clarke, Pascal Morimanno, Amanda Barker, Daniel Roberts,Kevin Hare, Walter Learning, Sofie Mais, Emily Bartlett, J. Sean Elliott, Richard Alan Campbell.

ABOUT MIRACLE ON 34TH STREETInitially unpublished, Valentine Davies’ story Miracle on 34th Street was simultaneously adapted and released as a film script and novella in 1947. Set in New York City, the story follows Kris Kringle, a nice old man hired to be Santa Claus by Macy’s Department store. When he claims to be the real thing, he challenges not only the public courts, but the belief of a young girl and her disillusioned mother. This holiday classic follows the subsequent trial and examines the value of the holiday spirit. The film won Academy Awards for Best Actor in a Supporting Role (Edmund Gwenn as Kris Kringle), Best Writing–Original Story (Valentine Davies), and Best Writing–Screenplay, and was nominated for Best Picture. It has since been remade four times, as made-for-TV-movies and one feature film. In 1963 it was made into a Broadway musical entitled Here’s Love. Miracle on 34th Street is considered to be one of the top five Christmas stories of all time and its message of faith and hope still resonates today.

FRED: But faith is believing in things when common sense tells you not to.Don’t you see – It’s not just Kris that’s on trial here. It’s everything he stands for.It’s human kindness, and joy and love, and all the other intangibles... someday you’re going to find out that your way of facing this world just doesn’t work.When you do, don’t overlook those lovely intangibles. You’ll discover they’re the only things in your realistic world that are worthwhile.

THE CREATIVE TEAM


LOBBY ARTIST CINDY O’NEIL

Artist, puzzler, songwriter and all round silly soul, Cindy O’Neil loves creating. Curiosity splashed with colour is a hallmark of her works.

Cindy’s journey in visual arts began in 2007 with her Butterfly series. A photo she took in her living room morphed in her mind’s eye into a dreamlike sight that begged to be given life. So she sat down at her computer, working for eight hours to translate her vision into the photo.

Initially her focus was creating graphic art for her websites, songs and poetry. It wasn’t long before she started experimenting in mixed media to tell stories in pictures. Her book Healing Circle Puzzles – Word Searches Beyond Words, features two works that she created specifically for the project.

When it comes to style, her works are as varied as they are colourful. From her Divinity inspired Entry Wings to the camp(ish) La La Land, there are many perspectives to Cindy’s pictures.

This STC exhibit is the third official showing of her works. In 2012 Cindy participated in the Galerie du Nouvel-Ontario annual Nouveau Louvre event, and in 2013 was a featured artist at Maison Vale Hospice.

Hidden Elemental Beauty is the name of Cindy’s enchanting STC exhibit.

Traveling the gamut from playful to heartbreaking, Mourning Dove touches the soul and challenges the mind. Inspired by the true story of Saskatchewan farmer Robert Latimer, both sides of a life-and-death issue are passionately represented.
