Wednesday, April 18, 2007 The Acting Company's Jane Eyre
Fisher Center, Sosnoff Theater The Acting Company Presents Charlotte Bronte's JANE EYREAdapted by Polly Teale Directed by Davis McCallum Recognized as a masterpiece when it was published in 1847, Jane Eyre remains a startlingly modern blend of passion, romance and suspense. "Jane Eyre, to me, is a story of containment and release, as Jane struggles from the imprisonment of her childhood toward an almost unthinkable goal of mature freedom," says director McCallum. "I think this is what led Polly Teale to twin Jane and Bertha [Mr. Rochester's mad wife] in her adaptation. In effect, Jane is two people. One is composed, quiet, appropriate, conventional, frozen; the other is wild, violent, rebellious, engulfed in flame. Jane is always fighting to control this devouring force within her, because she's afraid if she unleashes it, it may destroy her." Polly Teale's adaptation of Jane Eyre was originally performed in 1997 by Shared Experience Theatre Company at the Wolsey Theatre in Ipswich, England. Hannah Cabell appears as Jane Eyre and Christopher Oden as Mr. Rochester and John Reed. The cast includes Jeffrey M. Bender as Mr. Brocklehurst, Mr. Rochester's Horse, and Richard Mason; Kelley Curran as Abigail, Helen Burns, Adele, and Mary Rivers; Mina Friedman as Cellist; Carie Kawa as Bertha; Amy Landon as Bessie, Grace Poole, Ingram, and Woman; Liv Rooth as Mrs. Reed, Mrs. Fairfax, Diana Rivers; and Matt Steiner as Pilot the Dog, Lord Ingram, St. John Rivers. The production team includes Neil Patel, scenic design; Christal Weatherly, costume design; Michael Chybowski, lighting design; Michael Freeman and Fitz Patton, music and sound. Founded by John Houseman and Margot Harley in 1972, The Acting Company has been honored by the TONYs for Excellence in Theater and has won an Obie Award, Los Angeles Drama Critics Circle Award, Citibank's Excellence in Education Award, and two Audelco Awards. Hundreds of extraordinary actors–including Kevin Kline, Frances Conroy, Jesse L. Martin, Patti LuPone, David Ogden Stiers, Harriet Harris, David Schramm, Jeffrey Wright, Tom Hewett, Henry Stram, Keith David, and Rainn Wilsonï–began their careers touring with The Acting Company, which has brought 127 productions to millions of people in 48 states and nine foreign countries. |
