Letter from the<br />

Chairman<br />

Each season, the success of <strong>Roundabout</strong> can be measured in many ways: the accolades from<br />

subscribers for a play or musical they have discovered on one of our stages; the satisfaction of an artist<br />

being given the chance to experiment creatively; the enthusiasm of a student discovering theatre<br />

for the first time through our education programs. By these measures, our 41st Season was a rousing<br />

success. We owe a big debt of gratitude to those who made a wonderful season of theatre possible: our<br />

loyal subscribers, our generous donors, our incredible staff, our supremely talented artists and, of<br />

course, my fellow Board members.<br />

As New York’s largest not-for-profit theatre, we produce eight productions annually on three<br />

stages both on and Off-Broadway, more than any other theatre in the city. This wealth and depth<br />

of activity earned us a record number of subscribers this season–over 44,000—along with praise<br />

from audiences and critics alike. <strong>Roundabout</strong> is privileged to work with the best and brightest of the<br />

theatre world whose passion and talent ensures that each performance on our stage is a reflection of<br />

the highest level of artistry.<br />

Yet even with these successes, we faced new challenges this season: single ticket sales were below<br />

projections and production costs continued to soar. Thus, we realized an operating deficit for the first<br />

time in more than a decade. Always an innovator, <strong>Roundabout</strong> has already begun finding solutions<br />

to these challenges. We are rethinking how we can extend our tremendous success with subscribers<br />

to attract more single ticket buyers with new e-marketing initiatives and are unveiling a revamped,<br />

user-friendly website that will create more opportunities for our subscribers and audiences to engage<br />

with the work and the artists on our stages.<br />

Over our 41-year history, we have grown from a small theatre company to a major cultural institution.<br />

We are represented not only by the productions in our three theatrical homes, but also by the<br />

important behind-the-scenes programs that serve an ever-increasing community of artists and<br />

audiences. This includes our work in public schools, new play commissions, the Associate Artists<br />

program, and national tours. Our next steps are very important ones to our continued success:<br />

the completion of our capital improvements on our theatres, and the creation of an endowment for<br />

<strong>Roundabout</strong>. Just as our permanent theatres have allowed us to focus less on real estate and more<br />

on the work that happens on our stages, a strong endowment will allow <strong>Roundabout</strong> to take greater<br />

artistic risks while ensuring our continued financial stability.<br />

As <strong>Roundabout</strong> plans for our future, we are thrilled that you have chosen to join us. Thanks to our<br />

many donors, individual gifts increased this year to a record high. Also, our capital campaign is<br />

making major strides in meeting an ambitious financial goal that will help us prosper for years to<br />

come. By the measure of your ongoing support and generosity, <strong>Roundabout</strong> will continue to succeed<br />

in surprising and delighting audiences for seasons to come.<br />

Philip Bosco in Heartbreak House


Letter from the<br />

Artistic Director<br />

One of the greatest pleasures of my job as Artistic Director is creating a dynamic environment that<br />

artists at all points of their careers can call home. Whether it’s a young actor tackling his or her first<br />

Broadway role or a seasoned director taking on one of the most difficult plays in the dramatic canon, I<br />

hope they find that <strong>Roundabout</strong> is a place where they return throughout their careers to experiment and<br />

flourish as a member of our theatrical family. Our entire staff works hard to make sure our artists feel<br />

safe and welcome so they can stretch their abilities by taking on the challenging work we produce. In<br />

turn, this allows us to present our valued subscribers and audiences with the industry’s finest artists<br />

redefining great theatrical works. This is, and always will be, why <strong>Roundabout</strong> exists.<br />

In the 2006-2007 Season, we continued a proud tradition of theatrical excellence that audiences have<br />

come to expect, serving an eclectic mix of plays and musicals. We featured first-class revivals of two<br />

masterpieces (Heartbreak House, Suddenly Last Summer), a contemporary classic (Prelude to a Kiss), and<br />

a forgotten gem (Old Acquaintance). In addition, we produced the first Broadway revivals of two littleknown<br />

musicals (The Apple Tree, 110 in the Shade) and the New York premieres of two new plays (Howard<br />

Katz, Beyond Glory). These productions featured some of the most extraordinary actors, writers, directors<br />

and designers currently working in the theatre.<br />

Our season drew 44,000 subscribers, showing that New York area audiences clearly have a hunger for<br />

the type of programming we provide and want to be a part of <strong>Roundabout</strong>. In order to continue meeting<br />

the needs of our subscribers and to reach new audiences, we must continue to grow and evolve. Yet our<br />

central purpose of reviving plays and musicals will remain unchanged. We have been an integral part of<br />

the New York theatre scene for 41 years and plan to be a permanent part of the landscape for many more<br />

years to come.<br />

Of course, each season we have invaluable help. Our Board of Directors provides incredible support<br />

under the leadership of Tom Tuft, our new Chairman of the Board, and it is truly a joy to work with this<br />

extraordinary group of people. Our generous donors continue to make our work possible. One donor<br />

in particular has continued to help us in new and unexpected ways: The Harold and Mimi Steinberg<br />

Charitable Trust. They helped launch our new play initiative back in 1995 and have been incredible<br />

supporters and friends ever since. We are so proud that our Off-Broadway theatre center bears their<br />

name. This year, they created the Steinberg Challenge Grant, a $250,000 matching grant, which many<br />

of you participated in to galvanize our fundraising efforts. I feel so lucky to have the Steinberg family as<br />

friends and supporters of <strong>Roundabout</strong>.<br />

In the following pages, you will read about all the work undertaken last season. Our mainstage<br />

productions will hopefully be familiar to you. The other work you may be less familiar with but is no less<br />

important to the lifeblood of our theatre and our community: a full slate of developmental readings and<br />

workshops to nurture plays and musicals for future seasons; our annual gala, in which artists give so<br />

freely of their time and talent to raise funds for <strong>Roundabout</strong>; and our city-wide education programs that<br />

represent our investment in the artists and audiences of tomorrow. I hope you enjoy reading about this<br />

work that your own investment in the future of <strong>Roundabout</strong> has made possible. And, of course, I hope to<br />

see you at one of our theatres very soon!<br />

Todd Haimes<br />

Artistic Director<br />

For 41 years, <strong>Roundabout</strong> <strong>Theatre</strong> <strong>Company</strong><br />

has pursued its core mission of teaming<br />

great theatrical works with the industry’s<br />

finest artists and creating world-class productions<br />

both on and off-Broadway. In our 2005-2006<br />

season, as <strong>Roundabout</strong> celebrated its 40th<br />

anniversary, the company took the opportunity<br />

to look back at its accomplishments and take<br />

stock of its incredible growth. For much of that<br />

time, real estate was a constant and pressing<br />

issue. But after moving through eight theatres<br />

in seven locations, <strong>Roundabout</strong> now has three<br />

permanent theatrical homes. In the process, it<br />

has developed a sterling reputation, won a host<br />

of awards, and become the largest not-for-profit<br />

theatre company in the nation.<br />

“ [<strong>Roundabout</strong>] has done so much to ensure that<br />

New York’s vibrant cultural community—one of<br />

4<br />

The year in review<br />

our proudest defining features—remains strong<br />

and growing.”<br />

—Michael R. Bloomberg, Mayor<br />

This newfound security is allowing <strong>Roundabout</strong><br />

to focus fully on the theatre’s long-term future.<br />

In its 2006-2007 season, the company was<br />

decidedly looking forward. Having managed such<br />

incredible growth in its first 40 years, what new<br />

ways could it continue to meet the changing<br />

needs of the community while remaining true to<br />

its mission during the next 40 years? There has<br />

never been a more challenging time to produce<br />

theatre in America. Costs continue to skyrocket<br />

far beyond the rate of inflation. As Times Square<br />

increasingly becomes a family-oriented tourist<br />

destination, much of Broadway and the touring<br />

market is dominated by productions that appeal<br />

to family audiences. Yet <strong>Roundabout</strong> remains<br />

steadfast in its belief that there is a place for<br />

serious theatre for mature audiences. To create<br />

these top-notch productions, <strong>Roundabout</strong> enlists<br />

the best artists working in the industry and<br />

provides them with the materials and confidence<br />

with which to create theatre magic. The resulting<br />

collaborations are the foundation of its theatrical<br />

programming and the core of all that<br />

<strong>Roundabout</strong> does.<br />

For instance, the first production of the season<br />

was Heartbreak House, a revival of one of George<br />

Bernard Shaw’s most complex and difficult<br />

plays. In it, Shaw introduces a wealthy group<br />

of Brits who spend a weekend at a country<br />

manor obliviously obsessing over their love lives<br />

while the world around them dissolves into<br />

chaos. Although Shaw wrote it as a scathing<br />

indictment of upper class society before World<br />

War I, it seemed like his myopic characters<br />

could resonate with audiences today. Heartbreak<br />

House was one of the few of Shaw’s plays that<br />

<strong>Roundabout</strong> had never produced and hadn’t<br />

been seen on Broadway in over 20 years. In<br />

addition, Captain Shotover was<br />

a role that longtime <strong>Roundabout</strong><br />

favorite and acclaimed Shavian<br />

interpreter Philip Bosco longed<br />

to play. To tackle this behemoth,<br />

<strong>Roundabout</strong> put together one of<br />

the most impressive ensembles<br />

on Broadway: Bosco was joined<br />

by two other longtime friends<br />

of <strong>Roundabout</strong>, Byron Jennings<br />

and Swoosie Kurtz, along with<br />

exciting artists making their <strong>Roundabout</strong> debuts<br />

such as Laila Robins, Lily Rabe and director<br />

Robin Lefevre. This was a classic <strong>Roundabout</strong><br />

production in many ways: a crack ensemble<br />

weaving an intricate, large-scale play into an<br />

engaging and thought-provoking evening that<br />

audiences eagerly devoured.<br />

On each production, <strong>Roundabout</strong> always works<br />

diligently to pair the right artist with the right<br />

project. With the amount of time, effort and<br />

expense that goes into mounting a play or<br />

musical, we want to know that we have given<br />

the production the biggest chance of success<br />

possible by bringing together artists that will each<br />

bring something unique to the process. In turn,<br />

this allows <strong>Roundabout</strong> audiences to see these<br />

works in a new, illuminating light. <strong>Roundabout</strong><br />

would rather wait for the right artists—even if<br />

that means postponing a show we’ve already<br />

announced—rather than rush a production onto


the stage. Thus, sometimes putting together a<br />

theatrical dream team requires both patience and<br />

perseverance.<br />

A case in point this past season was Patrick<br />

Marber’s new play Howard Katz. Artistic Director<br />

Todd Haimes first read this ferocious play about<br />

the unraveling of a theatrical agent’s life in<br />

2004. With a cast of nine and many different<br />

settings, this would be the largest play produced<br />

in the intimate Laura Pels <strong>Theatre</strong> and it was<br />

important that the production was anchored<br />

with just the right actor in the central role.<br />

Immediately, Haimes knew the actor that could<br />

breathe fierce yet human light into this complex<br />

character: Alfred Molina. After doing a reading<br />

of the play with Molina, everyone agreed it was<br />

a perfect match. But Molina had many stage<br />

and film commitments, so <strong>Roundabout</strong> waited<br />

three years for his schedule to free up so the<br />

production could move forward. Yet it is exactly<br />

this type of ambitious, uncompromising work that<br />

<strong>Roundabout</strong> is dedicated to producing, no matter<br />

how long the wait.<br />

A similar story played out with our revival of 110<br />

in the Shade. Part of <strong>Roundabout</strong>’s mission is to<br />

mount revivals of musicals that normally wouldn’t<br />

receive a commercial production, allowing<br />

these works to be seen by a new generation of<br />

theatregoers. 110 in the Shade was perfectly in<br />

keeping with this mission. This little-known 1964<br />

musical by Tom Jones and Harvey Schmidt,<br />

based on N. Richard Nash’s play The Rainmaker,<br />

was eclipsed during its initial run by two other<br />

shows that debuted that season with iconic roles<br />

for women: Funny Girl and Hello, Dolly! To revive<br />

this show for a modern audience, it was essential<br />

to find the perfect actress to play Lizzie Curry.<br />

Director Lonny Price suggested Audra McDonald,<br />

one of the finest actresses working on Broadway<br />

whom Haimes had been eager to feature on a<br />

<strong>Roundabout</strong> stage. The company quickly put<br />

together a workshop to try out the idea and it was<br />

a match. Even with great excitement from the<br />

workshop, it would be two years before this indemand<br />

actress fulfilled her many commitments<br />

to other projects. During this time, <strong>Roundabout</strong><br />

held a second workshop where the material was<br />

further honed towards its ultimate production.<br />

John Mahoney in Prelude to a Kiss<br />

The result was an impassioned performance by<br />

McDonald and the entire company that breathed<br />

thrilling new life into this wonderful gem of a<br />

musical that hadn’t been seen on Broadway in<br />

43 years.<br />

Readings and workshops are invaluable<br />

opportunities to hear a play read by top actors,<br />

or to see a production on its feet in rehearsal<br />

conditions. Last year, <strong>Roundabout</strong> held 33<br />

readings and workshops over the course of the<br />

season. For <strong>Roundabout</strong>, it’s a chance to work<br />

on plays or musicals that are under consideration<br />

for a future season. One of the readings was of<br />

Christopher Durang’s The Marriage of Bette and<br />

Boo, which was staged as part of the Friends of<br />

<strong>Roundabout</strong> Playreading Series. This complex<br />

dark comedy hit such a chord with the audience<br />

that a second, private reading was held to further<br />

explore the material with both Mr. Durang and<br />

director Walter Bobbie. Through these two<br />

readings, a successful collaboration was born and<br />

<strong>Roundabout</strong> is proudly presenting this play as<br />

part of the 2007–2008 season.<br />

This season also saw <strong>Roundabout</strong> hit the road<br />

with its first self-produced national tour. Twelve<br />

Angry Men was unanimously acclaimed by both<br />

audiences and critics when it made its Broadway<br />

premiere at <strong>Roundabout</strong> in 2004 under the<br />

inspired direction of Scott Ellis. Although very<br />

few plays tour, especially one with a 13-member<br />

5


cast, this seemed the perfect opportunity to bring<br />

a <strong>Roundabout</strong> production on the road. The result,<br />

featuring Richard Thomas as Juror #8, was again<br />

met with unanimous raves everywhere it played.<br />

More importantly, it gave <strong>Roundabout</strong> a national<br />

presence. As Twelve Angry Men has been seen<br />

across the country in 21 cities over 34 weeks, it<br />

has brought the unique <strong>Roundabout</strong> experience<br />

to audiences that never venture to New York City:<br />

a world-class production of an ambitious play<br />

never before performed professionally in America.<br />

It also brought its intensive Education programs<br />

to audiences around the country, reaching<br />

students and teachers in every city in which<br />

it performed. Such was the success of Twelve<br />

Angry Men that it is going out for a second year<br />

on tour—unheard of for a straight play—and a<br />

London production is in the works.<br />

6<br />

VOICES students take a bow<br />

Last season, <strong>Roundabout</strong> produced five Broadway<br />

productions, three Off-Broadway productions,<br />

and one national tour. In the process, these<br />

productions played to over 800,000 audience<br />

members around the country, served 44,000<br />

subscribers, hired over 1,200 artists and<br />

technicians, and reached almost 7,000 students<br />

in New York City alone. But even with such<br />

success, <strong>Roundabout</strong>’s faced a financial shortfall<br />

for the first time since moving to Broadway. This<br />

has made the need for financial security all the<br />

more urgent.<br />

<strong>Roundabout</strong> is actively implementing a financial<br />

plan that will secure the company’s future<br />

through good times and bad, successes and<br />

disappointments. A large part of this plan is<br />

the creation of a permanent endowment to<br />

secure <strong>Roundabout</strong>’s financial future. Once<br />

established, the endowment would provide a<br />

steady, predictable flow of income over time<br />

while the principal continues to grow. This would<br />

be a permanent safeguard against unforeseeable<br />

circumstances that might arise in today’s<br />

turbulent world while allowing <strong>Roundabout</strong> to<br />

take advantage of future opportunities for growth<br />

and achievement.<br />

While continuing its rich artistic tradition of topquality<br />

theatre productions, <strong>Roundabout</strong> will<br />

continue to look forward: scaling new heights,<br />

reaching new audiences, and thriving in the world<br />

of professional theatre. What will undoubtedly<br />

result will be a strong organization that will serve<br />

its artists and audiences. By looking forward,<br />

<strong>Roundabout</strong> is committed to maintaining the vital<br />

presence of not-for-profit theatre on both the<br />

Broadway and the American stage for years<br />

to come.

At our annual Spring Gala on March 19,<br />

2007, over 500 Board members, donors,<br />

patrons, and guests of <strong>Roundabout</strong><br />

gathered for an extraordinary evening celebrating<br />

the 30th anniversary of the opening of the<br />

legendary Studio 54. For one unforgettable<br />

night, guests were granted VIP access to an<br />

incredible moment in New York City history when<br />

disco reigned and people lined up on West 54th<br />

Street for the chance to get Beyond the Velvet<br />

Rope. Led by Gala Chairs Lois Robbins-Zaro and<br />

Steven Schroko, the event raised nearly $1.2<br />

million for <strong>Roundabout</strong>’s Musical <strong>Theatre</strong> Fund.<br />

These important funds will help ensure that<br />

<strong>Roundabout</strong>’s rich musical productions such as<br />

this past season’s The Apple Tree and 110 in the<br />

Shade can be enjoyed by today’s audiences.<br />

The building that became Studio 54 has had a<br />

long, storied history. Built in 1927 as an opera<br />

16<br />

Jane Krakowski<br />

New York City Coucil member Dominic Recchia Jr., Audra<br />

McDonald, Gala Co-Chairs Lois Robbins-Zaro and Steve Schroko<br />

Beyond the<br />

house, its use shifted from opera to theatre<br />

to dinner club to CBS television studio. But it<br />

was in 1977 that it became a legend when it<br />

transformed into New York City’s most famous–<br />

and infamous–hotspot, Studio 54: part nightclub,<br />

part circus, part concert…but all fabulous!<br />

To celebrate this extraordinary history,<br />

<strong>Roundabout</strong> created a one-night-only musical<br />

celebration featuring Broadway’s hottest stars<br />

singing the unforgettable music of Studio<br />

54’s heyday. Directed by Tony Award ® winner<br />

Kathleen Marshall, the original revue featured<br />

unforgettable performances of the music of the<br />

Bee Gees, Elton John, Styx, Stevie Wonder,<br />

Donna Summer, and many more. Among the<br />

impressive talent who entertained the audience<br />

were: Jane Krawkoski, Raúl Esparza, Kelli<br />

O’Hara, Mark Kudish, Mario Cantone, Megan<br />

Lawrence, Alex Gemignani and Roz Ryan. Also,<br />

in a live auction led by Sotheby’s amazing<br />

Hugh Hildesly, guests had the opportunity to<br />

Roz Ryan performing “Last Dance” with Roxane Barlow, Bridget Berger,<br />

Marielys Molina, Jordan Cable, Justin Greer and Spencer Liff


VelVet Rope<br />

bid on unique entertainment packages such an<br />

afternoon on the set of “30 Rock” with Alec<br />

Baldwin and Jane Krakowski, and tickets to the<br />

“American Idol” semi-final in Hollywood.<br />

We also celebrated Studio 54’s return to<br />

Broadway. Beginning with our landmark production<br />

of Cabaret, Studio 54 became a legitimate<br />

Broadway house for the first time in 50 years. We<br />

soon purchased the building, making it our home<br />

for musicals and large-scale productions such as<br />

A Streetcar Named Desire and Assassins. For their<br />

invaluable support that made the purchase and<br />

subsequent renovations possible, we honored<br />

Mayor Michael Bloomberg and the City of New<br />

York, and Speaker Christine Quinn and the New<br />

York City Council with the Jason Robards Award<br />

for Excellence in <strong>Theatre</strong>. Accepting on their<br />

behalf were Commissioner of the New York City<br />

Department of Cultural Affairs, Kate Levin and<br />

City Council member Domenic M. Recchia, Jr.,<br />

who spoke eloquently about the importance of<br />

the arts to the life of New York City.<br />

The 2007 Gala was a remarkable tribute to<br />

Studio 54’s extraordinary contribution to the<br />

rich history of New York City. Now, under<br />

<strong>Roundabout</strong>’s stewardship, Studio 54 will remain<br />

at the forefront of the cultural community for<br />

years to come.<br />

is committed to cultivating new plays and musicals as well as re-working classics. artistic<br />

workshops provide an intensive forum in which playwrights, composers, lyricists, and directors<br />

can test works in front of a small group of their peers. friends playreadings both provide these artists<br />

with the opportunity to have their work performed in front of an enthusiastic audience and give<br />

<strong>Roundabout</strong> donors the unique experience of seeing theatre in the early stages of the development<br />

“ Since it (Bronx <strong>Theatre</strong> High School)<br />

opened, the school has made very<br />

good progress. under the authoritative<br />

leadership of the principal it has a<br />

clear, well-constructed philosophy. Its<br />

academic program is set well to the<br />

fore, with a coherent and powerful<br />

theatrical and artistic dimension. The<br />

teachers skillfully weave both aspects<br />

together. This approach is making<br />

strong contributions to the students’<br />

personal and social development and<br />

to their academic process.”<br />

—NYC Department of Education<br />

2006–07 Quality Review


“ Teaching for more than twenty years can often take its toll on<br />

one’s energy level. But at <strong>Roundabout</strong>’s four-day professional<br />

development workshop in summer 2000, I was sufficiently<br />

invigorated to approach the school year with a level of enthusiasm<br />

I hadn’t felt in years. In fact, I was so taken with the workshop<br />

that I decided to involve one of my classes in <strong>Roundabout</strong>’s Page<br />

to Stage (classroom-partnership) program.”<br />

—Mark Lord, Teacher, Robert F. Kennedy High School<br />

“ I’ve noticed a drastic change in John’s self confidence. He has<br />

gotten to know himself better and has shown much more maturity,<br />

ambition, drive and self-love. VOICES gives him a positive and<br />

safe place to be. Most importantly, I know he is doing something<br />

constructive with his time.”<br />

<strong>Theatre</strong> High School GraduationJazzland, an original play about Hurricane Katrina<br />

On June 26, 2007, a small crowd<br />

gathered outside the historic Studio<br />

54. The famed venue has witnessed<br />

the gathering of many diverse crowds during<br />

its 90-year history. However, this group of<br />

people was there to attend a first in the<br />

history of Studio 54: a high school graduation.<br />

As parents, siblings, friends, and teachers<br />

waited for the doors to open there was an<br />

understandable buzz and excitement in<br />

the air. For this was not only the first such<br />

ceremony to be held at Studio 54, it was the<br />

very first graduation for the Bronx <strong>Theatre</strong><br />

High School (BTHS), established in 2003.<br />

This early summer day would serve as a<br />

pinnacle moment in the lives of 64 ecstatic<br />

students and in the history of <strong>Roundabout</strong><br />

<strong>Theatre</strong> <strong>Company</strong>’s 11-year-old Education<br />

Program. The graduation was a culmination<br />

of one bold idea, two years of intensive<br />

planning, and four years of hard work and<br />

groundbreaking innovations in arts education<br />

by countless teachers, administrators, and<br />

theatre professionals.<br />

In 2001, then Education Director Margaret<br />

Salvante-McCann approached <strong>Roundabout</strong>’s<br />

leadership with the seemingly bold idea that<br />

<strong>Roundabout</strong> should explore applying to a new<br />

initiative begun by New Visions to support<br />

the creation of small, effective high schools,<br />

in which students could meet high standards<br />

of both academic and personal success. At<br />

first the idea to start its own school seemed<br />

bold for an Education Program that was<br />

formalized only five years earlier. However,<br />

both Todd Haimes and Julia Levy knew<br />

the profound impact <strong>Roundabout</strong>’s unique<br />

approach to education could have in a fullyintegrated<br />

setting. Two years later, after a<br />

competitive application process and intense<br />

planning with administrators, teachers, and<br />

parents, <strong>Roundabout</strong>’s first New Century<br />

High School, the Bronx <strong>Theatre</strong> High School,<br />

opened its doors. The school was located in<br />

one small wing in the larger John F. Kennedy<br />

High School. The challenges were plenty,<br />

but students and teachers alike, under the<br />

leadership of Principal Debi Effinger, were<br />

determined to make their small school work.<br />

The students and teachers began to integrate<br />

the process of theatre into every facet of the<br />

classroom and soon had a framework within<br />

which they could both explore their artistic<br />

talents and, at the same time, employ those<br />

talents to further their general academic and<br />

personal success.<br />

Four exciting years later, over 75% of the<br />

BTHS’s original freshman class gathered<br />

as seniors in the front three rows at Studio<br />

54 to be recognized by their peers. It was<br />

a truly emotional experience for all, as the<br />

students reflected on their experiences at<br />

BTHS through word and song. The morning<br />

got off to an inspirational start with speeches<br />

from Manhattan’s Deputy Borough President,<br />

Rosemonde Pierre-Louis, actress Portia, and<br />

director Scott Ellis. Then the audience heard<br />

from the students themselves. Salutatorian<br />

Zuleyka Polanco and Valedictorian Julia Rivera<br />

spoke passionately and emotionally about the<br />

impact their experience at BTHS has had on<br />

their own lives and the lives of their fellow<br />

students.


Students at a Postcard production workshop.<br />

The graduation was truly a memorable event<br />

and a testament to the success and impact of<br />

the Bronx <strong>Theatre</strong> High School. This success<br />

is evident in the statistics of this graduating<br />

class:<br />

• The senior class had a graduation rate of<br />

76.6%, in comparison to 50% City-wide.<br />

• The attendance rate was consistently at<br />

90%, compared to 82% in other City<br />

schools.<br />

• Regents test scores averaged above 85%,<br />

compared to 50% City-wide.<br />

In other Education Department activities during the 2006-2007 school year, <strong>Roundabout</strong>’s<br />

diverse programming from school-wide to classroom partnerships to professional development<br />

continued at a steady pace. This past year, <strong>Roundabout</strong>’s multi-faceted after-school program<br />

completed its first full cycle with 50 students from 9 participating schools. <strong>Roundabout</strong>’s<br />

arts-education curriculum also gained a national presence with the tour of Twelve Angry<br />

Men. In each of the 35 tour stops, <strong>Roundabout</strong> offered online curriculum materials, discount<br />

student tickets, and even workshops run by the actors themselves who had formally trained as<br />

teaching artists.<br />

Dear Friends,<br />

our suPPorTers<br />

With the ending of a season, we are reminded that our success is truly the collective effort of so many<br />

friends. Our 41st season was filled with compelling works that represented the human condition and you<br />

were there to support it. Thank you for recognizing the need for and value of <strong>Roundabout</strong>’s work and being<br />

the reason it flourishes on our stages. We want you involved with us for a very long time.<br />

Once again, your valuable feedback through our popular Playreading Series helped drive some of our<br />

artistic decisions for the current season. The reading of Christopher Durang’s dark comedy, The Marriage<br />

of Bette and Boo, which included a stellar cast of theatre veterans, was such a success that it will receive a<br />

full production at the Harold and Miriam Steinberg Center for <strong>Theatre</strong>/Laura Pels <strong>Theatre</strong> in Summer<br />

2008. Our donors are important to us every step of the way, and we’re always working to keep you close to<br />

<strong>Roundabout</strong>’s artistic process.<br />

All of us here are thrilled with the overwhelming response we received for the Harold and Mimi Steinberg<br />

Charitable Trust Challenge. <strong>Roundabout</strong> secured nearly $800,000 in new and increased funds in two<br />

months due to this extraordinary effort. From Board members to new friends, the Steinberg Challenge<br />

galvanized our fundraising efforts for this fiscal year. We could not have met the challenge without our<br />

strong leadership. Our Board and Leadership Council raised a third of the funds towards the Challenge.<br />

In particular, special thanks go to Board member Carole Krumland and her fellow trustees of the Harold<br />

and Mimi Steinberg Charitable Trust. They were the force behind creating this special challenge, and our<br />

friends, like you, made it a success.<br />

You are an important stakeholder in <strong>Roundabout</strong>’s mission to revitalize great theatrical works with<br />

the industry’s finest artists. Looking to the future, we hope you’ll continue to be with us. To secure our<br />

long-term financial security, we’re establishing our first true endowment driven by our current capital<br />

campaign, Building Partnerships for Artistic Excellence: A Campaign for <strong>Roundabout</strong> <strong>Theatre</strong> <strong>Company</strong>.<br />

You’ll be hearing more about this in the coming months as we reach out to our long-time supporters to help<br />

us in this endeavor.<br />

We are ever inspired by your generosity and we thank you so much for your investment in <strong>Roundabout</strong>. The<br />

work you see on our stages is only possible because you have been there for us, and we are all so grateful for<br />

your loyalty and commitment.<br />

Warm regards,<br />
