2010 Column Nominations!

I know I'm a little late in posting these, but when I was looking at my Google Analytics report for this blog, I noticed that a lot of traffic comes from keyword searches similar to "column awards" or "2010 column nominations," so I figured I'd do the folks a favor and post them HERE.

Musings on Show Boat, 1.0 and 2.0

"Beneath this mirthful mask burns a soul that has plumbed the depths!" Mandy Rausch as Ellie May Chipley (favorite costume and picture of me ever, by the way) - Show Boat 2004



"Life Upon the Wicked Stage" - Mandy Rausch as Ellie May Chipley, Show Boat 2004


The first time I did Show Boat was in the spring of 2004 with Denton Community Theatre. I was originally cast as Kim Ravenal and the understudy for Ellie May Chipley. Because of this, I was required at every rehearsal so that I could learn Ellie's role, but the directors didn't want me in ANY scenes until the very last one as Kim. Needless to say, this was a frustrating rehearsal process. My time was used very inefficiently, and it was one of the longest rehearsal processes known to community theatre (about 8 weeks).

Due to and in spite of a series of unfortunate events too melodramatic to go into here (ah, how young and self-righteous I was back then), I learned that I was to play Ellie...with about three weeks left until we opened the show. It was my first ever truly featured/supporting role in a show, and I was terrified. I had to make sure I had done my job well as an understudy and step in as off-book as possible, go to endless fittings at the costume shop to see which of the costumes pulled/built for the other actress would work for me, and cram my brain with lines and choreography.

It ended up being a pretty great experience...and definitely a memorable one if nothing else. It was one of my first shows with my husband (then boyfriend of course), who was playing Gaylord Ravenal. Yeah...originally I was cast as his daughter. Say it with me: Ew. It was my first time to meet and be in a show with some lovely and talented people who are still some of my favorite people in the entire world, as well.

Until recently, I had never done a show more than one time. My husband has had a couple of repeats (same role AND same show): Cabaret and Once Upon a Mattress. If you'd asked me which show would be the first I would repeat, I don't think my first guess would have been Show Boat.

If you'll recall, when I auditioned for the concert version at Lyric Stage, I wasn't too hopeful that I would get cast. Well, that's not the right word. Of course I was hopeful. I wasn't too confident. But, I suppose that Jay and Ann saw something or heard something they liked, and I was invited to be a part of this magical production.

In case you're wondering, I do realize how naive and goober-ish I sound when I gush about how glad I am to have gotten a toe into the door at Lyric Stage and work with some of DFW's finest singers and actors. Whatever; judge me if you want to. But I don't take things like this for granted. As much as it wore me (and my carpool buddies) out to go back and forth between Denton and Irving seven days a week for three weeks...I wouldn't trade it for anything. I had ab blast riding to and from the rehearsals and performances with Tyler and Heidi (there were some very interesting and very silly conversations on those drives...what do you expect after a 14-hour day of work and rehearsal?) and I met some wonderful people.

The amazingly talented Keron Jackson (Joe) and me backstage. This man has a true gift from God in that booming bass voice of his, and he's such a gracious and unpretentious soul.

It was a beautiful production (photos below taken by Steven Jones...one is slightly edited by me...see if you can see what I did!):


One night, during a particularly grueling musical cue-to-cue rehearsal, and while we were still allowed objects onstage to entertain us (iPhones, books, etc.), I wrote the following:

Sitting in Carpenter Hall at a musical cue-to-cue for Show Boat - still so amazed that I'm even here. Will anybody who doesn't already know me remember me when they leave? Maybe not. But will I remember this production? For the rest of my life, surely!

I know it sounds corny as hell, but it's true. This is my first time to ever pe a paid musical theatre performer. I announced this in the dressing room to two friends tonight , and they were very sweet in their surprise at this news. But, it's true. And I don't care if my check for such an occasion is $10 or $1,000 (ha!), I know I'll always remember it as being special because it was the first.

Surrounding me right now on this stage are some of the most talented actors in the DFW theatre community, and sometimes I feel like there was some mistake made and I don't deserve to be here. Thankfully, everyone I've met has been very gracious and kind and fun to be around. I know this isn't always the case, so I'm not taking it for granted. At. All. The talent level in this 68-member ensemble is truly tremendous. During the last week of rehearsals I was, quite unfortunately, recovering from an upper respiratory infection and completely unable to sing. Even so, there was a special silver lining during these rehearsals because all I could do was listen to the singing around me -- and that was just the ensemble. I'm fairly certain that everyone here has played lead or supporting roles before, and it shows in the dedication, quick learning and retention, and professionalism.

The leading principal characters are being sung by some of the biggest and purest voices I've had the pleasure of hearing -- and I married into an operatic community! It's like taking a voice lesson every night. Once I snapped out of the daze of just listening to the voices of people like Cecily [Ellis-Bills], Marty [Fox] and Laurie [Bulaoro], I started watching them. I watch their breath support and how their bodies handle such demanding roles night. after. night. It's also like an acting lesson. Andy [Baldwin] and Megan [Woodall] are so hysterical as Frank and Ellie, and you never know what they're going to do next. David [Coffee] and Lois [Sonnier Hart] as Cap'n Andy and Parthy -- I don't even know what to say about them except that they're amazing. I'm never all that confident in my abilities as an actress, so to watch such pros is a blessing to me.

....and that's when I got cut off. Rehearsal ended or I was needed to sing.

I'm so glad that I don't have to count on these experiences to make my living. As much as it exhausts me to have a full-time day job on top of my volunteer (or not!) theatre experiences, I think I enjoy these theatrical experiences so much more because I don't have to stress if I don't get into one in time to make rent or pay bills. I still enjoy going to the theatre to see productions I'm not in; it's not an extension of my work or my job like it probably gets to be for some.

Anyway...all that just to say that:

  • I had a great time and a wonderful learning experience,
  • I got a great opportunity to network and make some new friends, and
  • it was a great show for my first repeat, especially because it was so very different.

WOMEN AND WALLACE
REVIEWED BY Mandy Rausch
ASSOCIATE THEATER CRITIC for John Garcia's THE COLUMN

As we enter into the month of February, we find ourselves bombarded with accoutrements of "love" everywhere we look. "Show your love by buying her ______," the radio and television commercials tell us. Stores have set up blinding pink and red displays as you walk in, so as to make sure you can't miss the giant stuffed pink gorilla wearing a t-shirt that says "Wild Thing." It's enough to make a person sick.

Leave it to the innovative and edgy Sundown Collaborative Theatre, a grass-roots theatre company picking up a lot of steam in Denton, Texas, to take the cheesy Nicholas Sparks version of love and give it a swift kick in the rump. Love, ladies and gentleman, is nothing like The Notebook, and Sundown's first show of 2010, WOMEN AND WALLACE by Jonathan Marc Sherman, is here to show us just how difficult, heartbreaking, and sometimes agonizing finding love can be. But if you think this play is anti-love – think again.

With the clever use of a handful of set pieces (boxes and columns painted black) in the sparse, black box setting (the upstairs of a coffee shop); creative use of props and staging; a soundtrack of carefully picked tunes; and a great cast who isn't afraid of anything, WOMEN AND WALLACE shows us that, while the path towards finding love can be ugly and sometimes make us crazy, in the end the ugly and crazy journey can help us appreciate the destination so much more.

The story revolves around Wallace Kirkman at various stages of his life from second grade up until his college years. At six years old, Wallace comes home from school one day to find his mother has committed suicide. Because of this obviously traumatic incident, his relationships with women going forward are awkward, strained and usually doomed from the start. These relationships are presented in the form of vignettes, often narrated by Wallace himself through the use of his journal entries.

Travis Stuebing as Wallace gives a truly remarkable performance. He never leaves the stage, which is a feat in itself with this script. All his costume changes are done off to the side or as part of the action between scenes, and even at these times he remains in character and never loses focus. An actor could easily turn Wallace into an over the top and one-dimensional "traumatized male now hates women and is angry at the world" character, but Stuebing finds and presents all the layers of Wallace's personality and bares them to the audience with heart-breaking and poignant reality.

In one moment, Wallace has the audience laughing (albeit a bit uncomfortably) in the reenactment of a dream, and in the very next moment he is poised at the edge of the stage (and likely at the edge of his own reason) pitifully crying out for want of his mother there with him. His facial expressions and total commitment to the character help him to take the audience along on Wallace's roller coaster ride through relationships. You'll laugh, you'll cry…and you'll probably cringe more than a few times. I cannot say enough good things about Travis Stuebing.

The women of Wallace's life are played by Samantha Labrada, Whitnie Wood, Jenna Holley and Danielle Trudeau. Labrada's characters have the fewest lines, but she still manages to say a lot as Wallace's mother and psychiatrist. Wood gets several laughs as the grandmother who seems to have a morbid obsession with framed photographs of people days before their deaths.

Holley and Trudeau each play two different love interests of Wallace's at various stages in his journey. Each relationship fails, but each also reinforces Wallace's idea that all women will eventually desert him. In addition to their named roles, this talented quartet acts as both a run crew changing around set pieces and handing Wallace his props as needed, as well as a miniature Greek chorus, aiding Wallace in the vignettes of his life and the transitions in between.

Vera Brumley plays Nina; the one woman who challenges all of Wallace's preconceived notions about women. It is entirely necessary that the character of Nina should stand out from the rest of the women in Wallace's life, so Brumley is dressed differently from the other girls in a very obvious way, and does not participate in any of the aforementioned action of the other four women. She gives a solid, mature performance, and it is no wonder that Wallace should eventually be stopped in his tracks by her.

One of the reasons (besides the talent of the actors of course) that this production is so effective is the script itself. It is funny and poignant without being pretentious at all. Any of the obvious references and symbols one might draw from the content are put into the script itself and addressed (i.e. Freud, Oedipus complexes, etc.) candidly.

The other reason is the team behind this production. Director Cody Lucas deserves high praise for his unique and fun (and often funny) staging and use of the female ensemble and the boxy set pieces.

There is constant action and entertainment even during the
scene changes and, while nobody is credited for the sound
design, I'm willing to venture a guess that he had a lot to
do with the soundtrack to this production, which I enjoyed very much.

In his Director's Notes, Lucas mentions that he felt an instant connection with Sherman's script the first time he read it. Lucas's understanding of the material is very clear in his directorial choices. Everything has a purpose, the action is fast-paced and energetic, and there seems to be symbolism ingrained in every piece of staging, every song choice, every movement made onstage.

The themes created and chosen by Lucas are carried throughout the design elements of the show. The oversized and cartoonish props made out of cardboard (designed by Tiffany Hillan and Lucas) seem indicative of the child in Wallace that remains prevalent in the years following his mother's death.

The costume and makeup design by Candace Cockerham is simple and effective: the members of the female ensemble wear all black when they are not playing a specific character, and pieces are added to these basic costumes as they take on the roles of specific women.

Nina's character, by contrast, is dressed primarily in white. She does wear black leggings, tying her in with the female ensemble, but with pink accessories that accentuate her sweetness and set her apart from all the rest. Wallace is dressed in jeans, but changes shirts to indicate the progression through his life and his mental state at the time – from cartoony pajamas at age six to a bare chest and jeans when he is at his most vulnerable.

Perhaps my very favorite element of the production, however, is the scenic artistry of Andrew K. Currey. I mentioned before that the set pieces are utilitarian blocks and columns painted black, but this is only upon first glance. As the vignettes of Wallace's life are presented and the scenery is shifted for each, snippets of color and bits of phrases are shown as these set pieces are turned at different times. One might think that these little bits of color and words shown in specific scenes are arbitrary, but I would put money on there being a purpose and reason for each piece shown at any given time. Lucas doesn't appear to have done anything accidentally in this production.

I won't give away the final statement and picture shown (it is much better in person anyway), but it truly is a beautiful piece of art punctuating Wallace's final realization in the last scene of the play.

I give major kudos to Sundown Collaborative Theatre for being, in this critic's opinion, the epitome of what an upstart theatre company should be. They choose edgy and thought-provoking material and present it in a creative and compelling manner on a low budget. This company knows exactly who they are and what they want to accomplish, and it seems they are doing just that.

So, instead of going to see your run-of-the-mill, sappy romantic movie for Valentine's Day, take a walk on the cynical and realistic side and go see WOMEN AND WALLACE while you still can.
