Directed by Malcolm Tulip

Nora Helmer has been a feminist icon since her first appearance in 1879 as the lead character in Henrik Ibsen’s then-controversial A Doll’s House. 140 years later, Olivier Award-winning playwright Stef Smith has reshaped Nora’s singular struggle for financial and emotional independence into three characters, setting three Noras on parallel paths in different time periods. As their stories unfold, shifting cultural expectations exert their pressure on each Nora as what it means to be a feminist changes.

Nora: A Doll’s House received its premiere at Citizen’s Theatre in Glasgow in 2019 before moving to the Young Vic in early 2020.

Department of Theatre & Drama

Written by Jaclyn Backhaus
Directed by Emily Lyon (BFA ‵13, directing)

In 1869, a team of 10 men led by naturalist John Wesley Powell set out on an expedition to catalogue the Colorado River through the Grand Canyon—the first white settlers to do so. In 2015, playwright Jaclyn Backhaus set out to satirize the expedition and its bold yet arrogant explorers in a comedic tour-de-force that Time Out New York called a “thrilling, gender-flipped slice of manifest destiny.”

With a cast made up entirely of women, Men on Boats pokes fun at what New York Magazine calls the explorers’ “cockiness and cluelessness” in their attempts to exert their control on an unfamiliar (and already populated) environment. “The tone is comic, but never cute or camp,” says the New York Times. “And ultimately, you feel, the play respects its bold if fallible pioneers, in all their natural bravery and fearfulness.”

In 2015, playwright Jaclyn Backhaus set out to satirize the expedition and its bold yet arrogant explorers in a comedic tour-de-force that Time Out New York called a “thrilling, gender-flipped slice of manifest destiny.”

With a cast made up entirely of women, Men on Boats pokes fun at what New York Magazine calls the explorers’ “cockiness and cluelessness” in their attempts to exert their control on an unfamiliar (and already populated) environment. “The tone is comic, but never cute or camp,” says the New York Times. “And ultimately, you feel, the play respects its bold if fallible pioneers, in all their natural bravery and fearfulness.”

Written by William Shakespeare
Directed by Vince Cardinal

There is much mischief to be had in Shakespeare's most popular comedy when lovers defy authority and flee the court, only to find themselves caught in a zany web of illusion, romance, and magic in the Athenian woods. Featuring fairies, love potions, mixed-up lovers, magic spells, and a pompous rustic sporting a donkey's head, A Midsummer Night's Dream promises to bring laughter and a healthy dose of enchantment.

“A Journey from Afar” from Mother Emanuel: Charleston Karen Walwyn

Karen Walwyn, Concert Pianist, Composer, an Albany Recording Artist and a Florence Price Scholar is the first female African American pianist/ composer to receive the Steinway Artist Award.
A native of New York, Concert Pianist Karen Walwyn made her New York solo piano debut at Merkin Hall as a follow-up to her 2-CD series for Albany Records entitled Dark Fires, offering premiere recordings of works by American composers of African descent. Bill Faucett from The American Record Guide said “ Walwyn’s pianism is superb”, and Peter Burwasser from Fanfare Magazine said “Walwyn gets through this technically demanding program with aplomb. Her rhythmic nimbleness is especially notable.”

Dark Fires’ first volume includes composers Dolores White, Lettie Beckon Alston, Tania León, Hale Smith, Roger Dickerson, Jeffrey Mumford, and Adolphus Hailstork.

Dark Fires’ second album includes composers Ellis Marsalis, David Baker, Alvin Singleton, Adolphus Hailstork and Coleridge-Taylor Perkinson.
As a Composer, she received the Global Award: Gold Medal -Award of Excellence for her recording of her composition entitled Reflections on 9/11. Robert Schulslaper of Fanfare Magazine wrote: “Imaginatively conceived and executed, it both disturbingly transposes the catastrophe into appropriately cataclysmic sound and artistically suggests the aftermath’s lingering sense of numbing devastation.” The demand for concerts of this seven-movement ‘tour de force’ continuously carries her across the nation for command performances, which was first premiered in full at the Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C.

As a Mellon Faculty Fellow at the John Hope Franklin Institute, Duke University, Walwyn composed her debut choral work entitled Of Dance & Struggle: A Musical Tribute on the Life of Nelson Mandela, (Choir/Solo Piano/African Percussion) commissioned and performed by the Elon University Chorale under the direction of Dr. Gerald Knight.

Scored for a 100+choir, African Drums, Dancers, it is a multi-movement multimedia work, the premiere performance included choreographer Jason Aryeh.

Of Dance and Struggle was heralded by the South African Embassy in Washington, D.C. as “a monumental work for our beloved president, Nelson Mandela.”

As a Florence Price Scholar, Dr. Walwyn remains active in the research and work towards recordings of new music by Florence Price. She was invited by deputy director Morris Phibbs of the Center of Black Music Research of Chicago to perform and record the premiere recording of the Florence Price Concerto for Piano with the New Black Music Repertory Ensemble conducted by Leslie B Dunner of Chicago on Albany Records. “Walwyn provides a magnificent account of the concerto displaying her considerable technical skills”, reviewed by Bob McQuiston at NPR. Shortly after this release, she was invited as a guest artist on the documentary by Dr. James Greeson for his Emmy nominated film entitled The Caged Bird: The Life and Music of Florence B. Price which features Walwyn as one of the pioneering soloists of the music of Florence Price.

On her trip to Arkansas to visit the former homes of Ms. Price in Little Rock, and to review the precious letters at Special Collections at the University of Arkansas in Fayetteville, Dr. Walwyn had the opportunity to discover important history not yet told about which she shares in her many interviews and workshops on Florence Price. Learn more about Florence B. Price on Dr. Walwyn’s florenceprice.org here.

Dr. Walwyn, Area Coordinator of Keyboard Studies at Howard University, is in constant concert demand nationally and internationally for both her repertoire from Frédéric Chopin to Florence Price, as well as for performances of her own works for solo piano, choir and instrumental ensemble. And as a composer, she remains exceedingly busy with the completion of and performance of her commissions.

Pre-covid, some recent concerts include appearances in Johannesburg, South Africa; Barcelona, Spain; Tenerife, Canary Islands; Salzburg, Austria; London, England; and Nice, France. Nationally, Walwyn has performed throughout the contiguous United States, Hawaii, West Indies and the Virgin Islands.
Dr. Karen’s hobby is creating music therapy for pets! Her favorite pup, Miles, who was once a beautiful German Shepherd, taught her a lot about music affected him and after much research, she created her on line of albums for pets: Allegro Paws.

Making her compositional debut recently at the Kennedy Center, Dr. Walwyn received a tremendous standing ovation for her work for solo piano entitled “Reflections on 9/11”. “Imaginatively conceived and executed, it both disturbingly transposes the catastrophe into appropriately cataclysmic sound and artistically suggests the aftermath’s lingering sense of numbing devastation.” reviewed by Robert Schulslaper of Fanfare Magazine. The demand for concerts of this seven-movement ‘tour de force’ work continuously takes her across the nation for command performances.

He has been featured as a Guest Artist at the Texas State International Piano Festival and Brevard Summer Music Festival. Jonathan has performed with the Eastman Philharmonic Orchestra, Korean Philharmonic Orchestra of New Zealand, University of Auckland Symphony Orchestra, Auckland Youth Orchestra, and Chattanooga Symphony Orchestra. Jonathan received prizes in Kerikeri Piano Competition, Eastman Concerto Competition, Kapiti Coast National Piano Competition, and Christchurch National Piano Concerto Competition. His solo recitals and concerto performances have been recorded and broadcasted by Radio New Zealand, World TV, and WSMC-FM.

Jonathan completed a Master of Music Degree and Bachelor of Music (Honours) Degree with First Class at the University of Auckland, New Zealand. In 2009, he received an invitation to study in the USA to complete a Doctor of Musical Arts Degree, Master of Arts in Theory Pedagogy Degree, and Master of Music Degree at the Eastman School of Music. His academic mentors include Barry Snyder, Rae de Lisle, Read Gainsford, Douglas Humpherys, Thomas Schumacher, Steven Laitz, Elizabeth Marvin, Katherine Ciesinski, David Temperley, and Matthew Brown.

Jonathan has a passion for collecting rare historical music recordings of the early twentieth century. He is now combining this passion with his academic interest: music theory and music analysis. Jonathan’s current research is on tempo rubato—an in depth comparative study between nineteenth- and twentieth century pianists’ interpretations. His thesis, titled “Structural Hearing of Rubato,” is a pedagogical study of tempo fluctuation in music performance, focusing on motives, counterpoint, and harmonization. Jonathan has presented his theoretical work at the MTNA and College Music Society conferences.

“And then I realized that the deep darkness inside me had vanished. Suddenly. As suddenly as it has come. I raised myself from the sand and, without bothering either to take off my shoes or roll up my cuffs, walked into the surf to let the waves lap at my ankles.” What does it mean to tell a story? Who is the storyteller, who is listening? What real geography is surrounding us and what landscape do we imagine in our stories?

Devised Dance/Theatre piece inspired by short stories by Haruki Murakami and many more
 
Directed by: Tzveta Kassabova with the cast

“And then I realized that the deep darkness inside me had vanished. Suddenly. As suddenly as it has come. I raised myself from the sand and, without bothering either to take off my shoes or roll up my cuffs, walked into the surf to let the waves lap at my ankles.” What does it mean to tell a story? Who is the storyteller, who is listening? What real geography is surrounding us and what landscape do we imagine in our stories?

PlayFest is a festival of new works of students who were selected from a number of applicant submissions. Those selected developed their work with the assistance of their directors and dramaturg. The festival is a way for playwrights to assess their work and where they stand, in terms of the progress of the play, and doing so in front of a live audience. The hope is that this festival helps them get closer to their goal of completing a final draft.

Gustave Rosseels Endowed Prize for String Quartet
In 1984, Department of String Professor Emeritus Gustave Rosseels and his wife, Jacqueline Rosseels, established the expendable Gustave Rosseels Scholarship Fund to provide an annual award to four student players of an outstanding string quartet at the School of Music, Theatre & Dance. In 2021, generous donors, including an SMTD alumnus who studied with Professor Rosseels, endowed the fund to support students participating in string quartets and to recognize Professor Rosseels’ contributions to the art form in perpetuity.

Music from Auschwitz (May 17, 2022 8:00pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/91255 91255-21677607@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Tuesday, May 17, 2022 8:00pm
Location: Walgreen Drama Center
Organized By: School of Music, Theatre & Dance

In 2017, University of Michigan music theory professor Patricia Hall traveled to the Auschwitz-Birkenau State Museum to conduct research on manuscripts in their collection. This concert will feature ten short pieces arranged by Polish political prisoners who were members of the Auschwitz I men’s orchestra. Using popular German hits of the 1930s and 40s, they arranged and orchestrated these tangos, waltzes, and foxtrots for a dance band that played Sunday concerts for the Auschwitz garrison near the camp commandant’s villa.
 
Led by conductor Oriol Sans, an SMTD student ensemble will perform the pieces interspersed with lines spoken by the singers, from testimonies and interviews with members of the Auschwitz I men’s orchestra after the war. Silent for more than seventy years, the voices and arrangements of these Auschwitz prisoners will be brought to life.

Registration encouraged: https://myumi.ch/G1D65
