Dear Friends,

The 2007 Summer Season at the Globe is one of our most exciting and ambitiousyet. The centerpiece, of course, is the nationally-recognized Shakespeare Festival, now inits fourth year with a repertory company. The Globe has been one of the country’s pre-miere producers of Shakespeare since the Theatre’s inception in 1935, and this year weoffer three of the Bard’s most important works: Hamlet, The Two Gentlemen of Verona andMeasure for Measure. We are fortunate that our acclaimed director Darko Tresnjak, freshfrom a major success in New York and London, continues as Festival Artistic Director.

Noel Coward’s wickedly funny Hay Fever, directed by Robert Longbottom — one oftoday’s most sought-after directors — plays in the Old Globe Theatre, with the magicalcomedy Bell, Book and Candle, directed by Tresnjak, in the Cassius Carter Centre Stage.

This summer the Globe “campus” reaches beyond Balboa Park to downtown’s his-toric Spreckels Theatre, where we’ll be producing the west coast premiere (becoming thenational tour) of the Tony Award®-winning musical, Avenue Q. Still one of the biggestrecent hits on Broadway, Avenue Q is a hilarious show that’s perfectly suited to summerin San Diego!

We have much to look forward to as well — with the recently-announced 2007/08winter schedule, highlighted by four world-premieres: A Catered Affair, starring andwritten by the legendary Harvey Fierstein, a new stage version of the popular MGMmovie musical The Band Wagon, Hershey Felder’s world premiere, Beethoven, As I KnewHim, and In this Corner, a Globe commission about famed boxer Joe Louis.

This unprecedented slate of productions would not be possible without the supportof our donors and subscribers. We urge each and every one of you to support the Globein any way that you can during our $75 million campaign for the Theatre’s facilitiesneeds, education programs and endowment. Through this important campaign, as wellas through your continued annual support, the Globe will remain San Diego’s culturallandmark and continue to serve generations to come.

Welcome

Since 1935, The Old Globe has been an integral thread in thecultural fabric of San Diego, and with increasing attendance,balanced budgets and national recognition, The Old Globe is inone of the strongest positions in its history and is poised tosecure the theatre for generations to come.

The most critical long-term need at The Globe today is togrow its endowment. An endowment is a protected investmentfund that earns interest, which will provide the theatre with areliable income stream to supplement its annual ticket sales and donations.

As part of the current campaign – Securing a San DiegoLandmark – the Globe is actively seeking commitments to itsendowment through planned gifts, bequests and other estateplanning options.

The Old Globe would be pleased to meet with you todiscuss your goals for leaving a lasting gift to the Theatre. Ofcourse, you should also consult with your tax and legal advisers.We want this to be a “win/win” situation!

For more information, please contact Director ofDevelopment, Todd R. Schultz at (619)231-1941 x2310 or

[email protected].

The Need for EndowmentHelp Secure The Old Globe For Generations to Come

The following are examples of some of the many ways you canform partnerships with The Old Globe that are advantageous toyou as well as to the theatre:

MAKE AN OUTRIGHT GIFT – By making outright gifts of cash, appreciated securities and real estate you will receive immediate income tax deductions and recognition of your gift at the Globe.

DONATE FROM YOUR IRA – If you are age 70 or older, you can make cash gifts to the Globe and other charities totaling $100,000 a year from your IRA without incurring income tax on the withdrawal. Act fast to take advantage of this tax provision as it expires in 2007.

LEAVE A BEQUEST – In your will or trust, you can designate the Globe as a beneficiary and that amount will be deductible in determining your taxable estate.

CREATE A CHARITABLE TRUST – While helping the Globe, you and/or your heirs can benefit now or in the future by receiving income for life or for a period of years; you will receive an immediate charitable deduction on your income tax and will avoid capital gains taxes.

LOOK BACK IN AMUSEMENT

[The following article was taken largely from the transcripts of a 1992 episode of The South Bank Show. Additional material comes from various biographies of Noel Coward.]

When Noel Coward died in 1973, he left a legacy of morethan 50 plays, 400 songs, and several volumes of prose andverse, and he’d acted in over 20 films.

The quintessential English gentleman, Noel Coward was infact born just two weeks before 1900 into a lower-middle-classfamily in West London. Almost from the cradle, Noel’s ambi-tious mother saw star potential in her precocious son, wholanded his first payingacting job at the age of 10.“I was trained when I wasvery young as a show-off,and I’ve continued tri-umphantly until thismoment,” Cowardremarked in a 1969 inter-view.

From the age of 11onward, Noel was actingregularly, but only in minorand supporting roles.When he was 17 he made abrief appearance in D.W.Griffith’s silent film, Heartsof the World. He’d become a professional actor, and his confi-dence in his ability was already immense. Stardom continuedto elude him despite his many efforts, so he turned his hand towriting plays and revues featuring himself. In 1924, at age 24,he wrote his third play, The Vortex.

“My object in The Vortex was to write a good play, with awhacking good part in it for myself,” Coward said. “And I’mthankful to say, with a few modest reservations, that I think Isucceeded.” His character was the drug-addicted son of awoman who made herself look ridiculous by trying to appearyoung and taking lovers who were half her age. As Cowardlater observed, “It was an immediate success. It established meas a playwright and as an actor, which was very fortunate,because up until that time I had not proved myself to be so hotin either capacity.”

The Vortex was completely new. It dealt with taboo themes,it was emotionally powerful, and it attacked the shallowness ofupper-middle-class society, the very people who flocked to seeit. Coward played in it for the first 10 months of its run beforetaking it to Broadway.

Coward soon monopolized British theatre. In 1925 he hadfour plays running simultaneously in the West End, and hebought his first Rolls Royce at age 26. Coward had created astyle of theatre that was entirely his own. In the eight yearsfrom 1924 to 1932, he consolidated his style with plays like HayFever, Bittersweet, Private Lives, and Design for Living. Cowardstarred in all of them.

Biographer John Lahr said of Coward, “He was really thefirst English performer tolive in what we would seeas modern celebrity. Hesaid that he was theBeatles of his era, and hewasn’t wrong. He was aphenomenon.”

Coward’s mastery ofstage technique, along withthe parts he wrote forhimself, meant that by theend of the 1930s he’d per-fected his public image asthe sophisticated romanticlead – or, as biographerSheridan Morley punned,

“playboy of the West End world.”“Coward’s whole life was dedicated to projecting an image

of good manners,” Lahr observed. “Here was a man who wasill-educated and gay, and who was taking the whole society fora tumble – and making them imitate him. People were writingabout how he talked. He was inventing a style.”

By 1940 Noel Coward had written 32 plays and 150 songsas well. Enough of them were published to wallpaper a room,albeit his lavatory, which he rechristened The Music Room.

During World War II, Coward gave concerts for the troopsat Winston Churchill’s request; his sardonic song “Don’t Let’sBe Beastly to the Germans” earned him a place on the Nazideath list. Coward’s reputation as a frivolous playboy was cancelled out by his 1933 film Cavalcade, a cinematic phenome-non with a cast of hundreds. Based on Coward’s 1931 play,Cavalcade dealt with the fortunes of two families between theBoer and first World Wars. The extraordinary public response

NOEL COWARD AND GERTRUDE LAWRENCE IN PRIVATE LIVES.


NOEL COWARD, AS OTHERS SAW HIMChoice Words from Famous Friends

“He can get into two or three words, just dripped out, such awitty comment on the situation. He doesn’t waste words.”

– Dame Edith Evans

“My mother said if you ever bring that naughty boy here again,I’ll turn him out.”

— Hermione Gingold

“He is punctual, polite, precise and elegant; he became as popularand as much talked about as the Prince of Wales.”

— Sir John Gielgud

“I’m a great admirer of Noel’s. I think he’s the cleverest man ofour generation – a wonderful man, but he’s cruel. He’s cruel ashell, and I’m no good when people are cruel to me…“When Edith Evans was in Hay Fever I’d ask, ‘Well, how are yougetting on?’ And she would be in floods of tears. Yet if hewalked in here now he’d be so charming and we’d all adore him– me included – but he’s hell to work with, and I never wantto do anything else with him. I’d have to be starving.”

— Cicely Courtneidge

“Like all men of enormous talent or genius, he did not merelyecho the age he lived in as a youth, or as a very young man,but he helped to create it. If anyone was one of the creators ofwhat we call the 1920s nowadays, Noel was that man.”

— Michael MacLiammoir

“He’s a marvelous sick-visitor, Noel. Not that many people knowthat about him; what a kind man he is. I’m afraid I make itseem like a duty, whereas Noel always makes it seem a pleasure,and manages to make one feel better again.”

— Terence Rattigan

“Noel could play these nervous strange people, hysterical people,which is very rare…It’s only people who are hysterical who canplay hysterical parts. You see, he could scream!”

— Dame Sybil Thorndike

“Noel and I were in Paris once. Adjoining rooms, of course. Onenight, I felt mischievous, so I knocked on Noel’s door and heasked, “Who is it?” I lowered my voice and said, ‘Hotel detective.Have you got a gentleman in your room?’ He answered, ‘Just aminute, I’ll ask him.’”

— Bea Lillie

“Sarcastic or sentimental, bitchy or sweet, there has never beenanyone quite like him.”

— John Kander

to Cavalcade led Coward to attempt a navyversion in 1942, and to star in it himself. Theresult was In Which We Serve, possibly his mostsuccessful film. Coward co-directed the picturewith a young film editor, David Lean, whohandled the technical details while Cowardworked with the actors. Further pictures fol-lowed. Another collaboration with Lean turnedCoward’s one-act play Still Life into BriefEncounter (1945).

By 1956 Coward had moved to Bermuda intax exile, but he was never completely contentaway from England.

He went to Las Vegas in 1955 to launch upon the gamblers his idiosyncraticbrand of cabaret. It was like entertaining the troops again, except that here hewas an unqualified success. At $35,000 per week, he was getting more than LasVegas had ever paid to an entertainer, with the single exception of Liberace.Hollywood flocked to Coward’s Vegas revue. The opening night audience includ-ed Frank Sinatra, Judy Garland, and other stars; the next day, Sinatra said on theradio, “If you want to hear how a song should be sung, go to the Desert Inn andsee Noel Coward.”

At retirement age, Noel Coward, the mythical figure, made a comeback. Hereceived an enormous boost in 1964 when Laurence Olivier invited him to directa revival of his 1924 play Hay Fever at the National Theatre. The revival (whichstarred Edith Evans, Maggie Smith, and Lynn Redgrave) was an instant successand transformed his fortunes again; the press and public seemed surprised atjust how good a writer he was. More of his early plays were revived, and Cowardfound himself a fashionable celebrity once again.

In 1969 the Savoy hosted an extravagant 70th birthday party for him, and anumber of illustrious colleagues and friends turned out to pay tribute. Furtherhonors followed; he was finally knighted in 1970, and four months later he wasgiven a special Tony Award®. But his health was already beginning to fail, and

he had a succession of ill-nesses. He went back toJamaica to die, and in1973 he suffered a fatalheart attack. In 1984, astone was unveiled inWestminster Abbey’sPoet’s Corner commemo-rating his life. Inscribedon the stone is a frag-ment of a lyric from oneof Coward’s many songs:“A Talent to Amuse.”

SUE DAWES IN BLITHE SPIRIT

JUDI DENCH IN HAY FEVER


P r o g r a m N o t e s c o n t i n u e d

LAHR ON COWARD’S HAY FEVER. . . In Hay Fever, the first and thefinest of his major plays, he gives malice and bad manners an outing. In sodoing, the play not only chronicles a new caste in English life but a shift inbehaviour. In the years to come, the Blisses’ manners would prevail. ‘Let[Coward] spare us more of these silly children,’ pleaded the Sunday Times. Butthese silly children were the next generation of the well-to-do – a generationfor whom Coward was both a spokesman and a myth. ‘There is no one nowwriting who has more obviously a gift for the theatre than Mr. Noël Coward,nor more influence with young writers,’ wrote Somerset Maugham in 1929, inan American volume of Coward’s plays that included Hay Fever. ‘It is probably his inclination and practice that will be responsible for the manner in whichplays will be written during the next thirty years!

LAHR ON COWARDJohn Lahr, the son of actor Bert, isone of the theatre’s leading essay-ists and critics. What follows areexcerpts from his book, Cowardthe Playwright, published byMethuen London Ltd., 1982.

A star is his owngreatest invention. NoelCoward’s plays andsongs were primarilyvehicles to launch hiselegant persona on theworld. In his clipped,bright, confident style,Coward irresistibly com-bined reserve and highcamp…

Coward was not athinker. His genius was for style. When his plays aspired toseriousness, the result was always slick, and when he wrotehimself into the role of ardent heterosexual lover or ordinaryworking class bloke, the characterization is wooden. The masterof comic throw-away becomes too loquacious when he getsserious, and his fine words ring false. Only when Coward is friv-olous does he become in any sense profound.

Frivolity, as Coward embodied it, was an act of freedom, ofdisenchantment. He had been among the first popular enter-tainers to give a shape to his generation’s sense of absence. Hisfrivolity celebrates a metaphysical stalemate, calling it quits withmeanings and certainties. ‘We none of us ever mean anything,’says Sorel Bliss amid the put-ons at the Bliss house-party in HayFever (1925). The homosexual sense of the capriciousness of life

is matched by a capricious style. This high-camp style, of whichCoward was the theatrical master, worked as a kind of sympa-thetic magic to dispel both self-hatred and public scorn….Thebattle in Coward’s best comedies is not between license andcontrol but between gravity and high spirits…

…Coward’s best work follows, more or less, this recipe forchaos. His reputation as a playwright rests on Hay Fever, PrivateLives, Design for Living (1932), Present Laughter (1942), Blithe Spirit(1941) and the brilliant cameo Hands Across the Sea (1936). In allthese comedies of bad manners, the characters are grown-upadolescents. There is no family life to speak of, no children, nocommitment except to pleasure. The characters do no real work;and money, in a time of world depression, hunger marches andwar, is taken for granted. Monsters of vanity and selfishness,they appeal to the audience because their frivolity has a kind ofstoic dignity.

Written fast and in full, confident flow (Hay Fever – five days;Private Lives – four days; Present Laughter and Blithe Spirit – sixdays), Coward’s best work has the aggressive edge of his highspirits. And when, in the fifties, his plays no longer foundfavour, he took frivolity’s message to the public in person as acabaret turn, brilliantly mocking his audiences’ appetite foranxiety with such impish songs as ‘Why must the show go on?’and ‘There are bad times just around the corner.’

…It was not the situations of English life (except for BlitheSpirit his comedies have no substantial plots) but the sound ofit, that interested Coward. When, in Hay Fever, Simon Blissadmits to his mother that he hasn’t washed, Judith says: ‘Youshould darling, really. It’s so bad for your skin to leave thingsabout on it.’ Coward loves such fluting vagueness and he hasleft modern theatre a number of cunning pen portraits of thisendangered species…

It is the frivolity in his plays which has proved timeless. Thereason is simple. Frivolity acknowledges the futility of life whileadding flavour to it.

COWARD ON HAY FEVER. . .The idea came to me suddenly in the garden,and I finished it in about three days, a fact which later on, when I had becomenews value, seemed to excite gossip-writers inordinately, although why the publicshould care whether a play takes three days or three years to write I shall neverunderstand. Perhaps they don’t. However, when I had finished it and had itneatly typed and bound up, I read it through and was rather unimpressed withit. This was an odd sensation for me, as in those days I was almost alwaysenchanted with everything I wrote. I knew certain scenes were good, especiallythe breakfast scene in the last act, and the dialogue between the giggling flapperand the diplomat in the first act, but apart from these it seemed to me a littletedious. I think that the reason for this was that I was passing through a tran-sition stage as a writer; my dialogue was becoming more natural and less elabo-rate, and I was beginning to concentrate more on the comedy values of the situ-ation rather than the comedy values of actual lines. I expect that when I readthrough Hay Fever for the first time, I was subconsciously bemoaning its lack ofsnappy epigrams.

Leadership Gifts to The Old Globe “There are so many opportunities to helpmake a positive difference in San Diego,”says Kathryn Hattox, “but nothing gets meas emotionally involved as the arts do;specifically The Old Globe.” Mrs. Hattox isa native San Diegan and the Chair of theBoard of Directors at The Old Globe.Although she is an incredibly activemember of the Globe’s leadership, this isjust the current focus in a life dedicated tosupporting her community.

“I think that people who have been fortunate enough to accumulate assets thatthey don’t need for ordinary living should

share them with the public,” says Mrs. Hattox. “That’s my theory.” As a supporterof a number of local charitable organizations, Mrs. Hattox puts that theory towork everyday.

In addition to her efforts at The OldGlobe, Mrs. Hattox is a long-time supporter of many of the cultural institutions in Balboa Park. She is particularly fond of the San Diego Zoo.In fact, the hippopotamus exhibit at theZoo is named after her late husband.“Every time family members visit theZoo, we always stop to take a look atGrandpa’s hippo pool.”

When asked about her work in the community, she puts things succinctly, “It ismeaningful to see the people in the community enjoy the things to which one hasdonated their time and money.” And at a time when many people can’t seem to find enough time to help others, Mrs. Hattox has renewed her dedication tocharitable giving.

“I’ve decided to accelerate my giving because it is nice to see the gifts in action.There’s not much point in waiting until you’re dead when you can’t see anything.I’ve been donating gifts in this community for quite a while because I’ve been veryfortunate financially. But recently I realized that I should start giving more now.I’m hoping that people will be inspired by all of the amazing things that are goingon at the Globe. I’ve been coming to the Globe for fifty years, and I hope that I canhelp to ensure that others will have that same wonderful experience.”

Mrs. Hattox exemplifies the kind of community spirit that makes San DiegoAmerica’s finest city. The Old Globe is proud to recognize Kathryn Hattox as a volunteer, a donor and a friend.

“I’ve been coming to theGlobe for fifty years, and

I hope that I can help to ensure that others will have that same

wonderful experience.”
