Energy and Laughter Fill the Summer Season!
Florida Studio Theatre Announces Its 2010 Summerfest Season

An energizing trip down memory lane, a hilarious one-woman show and a whimsical comedy make up the 2010 Summerfest Season at FST that will keep Sarasota entertained all summer long! The Summerfest Season plays from June 2 through August 22 in the Keating and Gompertz Theatres. A Subscription to all 3 plays can be purchased for ½ off box office pricing! Packages range from $29-$42.

Artistic Director, Richard Hopkins stated, "FST's summer season is filled with great moments in theatre. Beehive, The 60s Musical offers memorable hits of the 60s with high energy and fervor. Family Secrets, the longest running one-woman show in Off-Broadway history, will expose hilarious family bonds, woes and triumphs. Sylvia returns to the FST stage with a comedic look at relationships and the pitfalls that occur and how the smallest things, in this case a dog, can turn everything on its ear."

Florida Studio Theatre kicks off its 2010 summer season with Beehive, The 60s Musical created by Larry Gallagher. The New York Times said Beehive is a "Hand-clapping, toe-tapping trip down memory lane." Over 35 exhilarating hit songs of the 60s that defined an era in music when women catapulted to the top of the Billboard charts. Relive some of the decade's most spirited and best known songs, including "My Boyfriend's Back," "One Fine Day," and "Downtown," as well as music from Tina Turner, Aretha Franklin and Janis Joplin. Beehive, The 60s Musical begins June 2^nd.

Director Fred Weiss will return to FST for Beehive, The 60s Musical, after most recently directing last summer's hit A Marvelous Party! The Noël Coward Celebration.

The one-woman sensation Family Secrets by Sherry Glaser and Gregory Howells begins June 30^th as the actress single-handedly brings to life her five Jewish family members, transplanted from the Bronx to Southern California. Both a hilarious and deeply moving portrait of the head of household father, the manic mother, the earth mother, a short-fused sister and Grandma Rose. Family Secrets is the longest running one-woman show in Off-Broadway history and received raved reviews, including "Utterly hilarious" by The New York Times.

The uproarious and larger than life Sylvia by A.R. Gurney begins July 28^th. A whimsical comedy about a captivating canine named Sylvia (played by an actress) and the hilarity that results when man's best friend comes between husband and wife. After 22 years of marriage and with an empty nest, Greg and Kate finally have time to work on their strained relationship, until Sylvia is brought home. Kate is willing to go to great lengths to rid their home of the dog, but she does not anticipate Sylvia's affection. "Beautiful, funny, touching and profound," raved NY Daily News.

The first and third show in the Summerfest Season - Beehive, The 60s Musical and Sylvia - will be presented at FST's Keating Theatre. The second show Family Secrets will be presented at the Gompertz Theatre. Single tickets range from $19 for previews to $29-34 for regular performances. A subscription to all 3 shows ranges from $29-42. Subscription tickets and single tickets may be purchased from the FST Box Office in person, by phone (941) 366-9000 or online at <www.floridastudiotheatre.org>

Energy and Laughter Fill the Summer Season!
Florida Studio Theatre Announces Its 2010 Summerfest Season

An energizing trip down memory lane, a hilarious one-woman show and a whimsical comedy make up the 2010 Summerfest Season at FST that will keep Sarasota entertained all summer long! The Summerfest Season plays from June 2 through August 22 in the Keating and Gompertz Theatres. A Subscription to all 3 plays can be purchased for ½ off box office pricing! Packages range from $29-$42.

Artistic Director, Richard Hopkins stated, "FST's summer season is filled with great moments in theatre. Beehive, The 60s Musical offers memorable hits of the 60s with high energy and fervor. Family Secrets, the longest running one-woman show in Off-Broadway history, will expose hilarious family bonds, woes and triumphs. Sylvia returns to the FST stage with a comedic look at relationships and the pitfalls that occur and how the smallest things, in this case a dog, can turn everything on its ear."

Florida Studio Theatre kicks off its 2010 summer season with Beehive, The 60s Musical created by Larry Gallagher. The New York Times said Beehive is a "Hand-clapping, toe-tapping trip down memory lane." Over 35 exhilarating hit songs of the 60s that defined an era in music when women catapulted to the top of the Billboard charts. Relive some of the decade's most spirited and best known songs, including "My Boyfriend's Back," "One Fine Day," and "Downtown," as well as music from Tina Turner, Aretha Franklin and Janis Joplin. Beehive, The 60s Musical begins June 2^nd.

Director Fred Weiss will return to FST for Beehive, The 60s Musical, after most recently directing last summer's hit A Marvelous Party! The Noël Coward Celebration.

The one-woman sensation Family Secrets by Sherry Glaser and Gregory Howells begins June 30^th as the actress single-handedly brings to life her five Jewish family members, transplanted from the Bronx to Southern California. Both a hilarious and deeply moving portrait of the head of household father, the manic mother, the earth mother, a short-fused sister and Grandma Rose. Family Secrets is the longest running one-woman show in Off-Broadway history and received raved reviews, including "Utterly hilarious" by The New York Times.

The uproarious and larger than life Sylvia by A.R. Gurney begins July 28^th. A whimsical comedy about a captivating canine named Sylvia (played by an actress) and the hilarity that results when man's best friend comes between husband and wife. After 22 years of marriage and with an empty nest, Greg and Kate finally have time to work on their strained relationship, until Sylvia is brought home. Kate is willing to go to great lengths to rid their home of the dog, but she does not anticipate Sylvia's affection. "Beautiful, funny, touching and profound," raved NY Daily News.

The first and third show in the Summerfest Season - Beehive, The 60s Musical and Sylvia - will be presented at FST's Keating Theatre. The second show Family Secrets will be presented at the Gompertz Theatre. Single tickets range from $19 for previews to $29-34 for regular performances. A subscription to all 3 shows ranges from $29-42. Subscription tickets and single tickets may be purchased from the FST Box Office in person, by phone (941) 366-9000 or online at <www.floridastudiotheatre.org>

Energy and Laughter Fill the Summer Season!
Florida Studio Theatre Announces Its 2010 Summerfest Season

An energizing trip down memory lane, a hilarious one-woman show and a whimsical comedy make up the 2010 Summerfest Season at FST that will keep Sarasota entertained all summer long! The Summerfest Season plays from June 2 through August 22 in the Keating and Gompertz Theatres. A Subscription to all 3 plays can be purchased for ½ off box office pricing! Packages range from $29-$42.

Artistic Director, Richard Hopkins stated, "FST's summer season is filled with great moments in theatre. Beehive, The 60s Musical offers memorable hits of the 60s with high energy and fervor. Family Secrets, the longest running one-woman show in Off-Broadway history, will expose hilarious family bonds, woes and triumphs. Sylvia returns to the FST stage with a comedic look at relationships and the pitfalls that occur and how the smallest things, in this case a dog, can turn everything on its ear."

Florida Studio Theatre kicks off its 2010 summer season with Beehive, The 60s Musical created by Larry Gallagher. The New York Times said Beehive is a "Hand-clapping, toe-tapping trip down memory lane." Over 35 exhilarating hit songs of the 60s that defined an era in music when women catapulted to the top of the Billboard charts. Relive some of the decade's most spirited and best known songs, including "My Boyfriend's Back," "One Fine Day," and "Downtown," as well as music from Tina Turner, Aretha Franklin and Janis Joplin. Beehive, The 60s Musical begins June 2^nd.

Director Fred Weiss will return to FST for Beehive, The 60s Musical, after most recently directing last summer's hit A Marvelous Party! The Noël Coward Celebration.

The one-woman sensation Family Secrets by Sherry Glaser and Gregory Howells begins June 30^th as the actress single-handedly brings to life her five Jewish family members, transplanted from the Bronx to Southern California. Both a hilarious and deeply moving portrait of the head of household father, the manic mother, the earth mother, a short-fused sister and Grandma Rose. Family Secrets is the longest running one-woman show in Off-Broadway history and received raved reviews, including "Utterly hilarious" by The New York Times.

The uproarious and larger than life Sylvia by A.R. Gurney begins July 28^th. A whimsical comedy about a captivating canine named Sylvia (played by an actress) and the hilarity that results when man's best friend comes between husband and wife. After 22 years of marriage and with an empty nest, Greg and Kate finally have time to work on their strained relationship, until Sylvia is brought home. Kate is willing to go to great lengths to rid their home of the dog, but she does not anticipate Sylvia's affection. "Beautiful, funny, touching and profound," raved NY Daily News.

The first and third show in the Summerfest Season - Beehive, The 60s Musical and Sylvia - will be presented at FST's Keating Theatre. The second show Family Secrets will be presented at the Gompertz Theatre. Single tickets range from $19 for previews to $29-34 for regular performances.

Energy and Laughter Fill the Summer Season!
Florida Studio Theatre Announces Its 2010 Summerfest Season

An energizing trip down memory lane, a hilarious one-woman show and a whimsical comedy make up the 2010 Summerfest Season at FST that will keep Sarasota entertained all summer long! The Summerfest Season plays from June 2 through August 22 in the Keating and Gompertz Theatres. A Subscription to all 3 plays can be purchased for ½ off box office pricing! Packages range from $29-$42.

Artistic Director, Richard Hopkins stated, "FST's summer season is filled with great moments in theatre. Beehive, The 60s Musical offers memorable hits of the 60s with high energy and fervor. Family Secrets, the longest running one-woman show in Off-Broadway history, will expose hilarious family bonds, woes and triumphs. Sylvia returns to the FST stage with a comedic look at relationships and the pitfalls that occur and how the smallest things, in this case a dog, can turn everything on its ear."

Florida Studio Theatre kicks off its 2010 summer season with Beehive, The 60s Musical created by Larry Gallagher. The New York Times said Beehive is a "Hand-clapping, toe-tapping trip down memory lane." Over 35 exhilarating hit songs of the 60s that defined an era in music when women catapulted to the top of the Billboard charts. Relive some of the decade's most spirited and best known songs, including "My Boyfriend's Back," "One Fine Day," and "Downtown," as well as music from Tina Turner, Aretha Franklin and Janis Joplin. Beehive, The 60s Musical begins June 2^nd.

Director Fred Weiss will return to FST for Beehive, The 60s Musical, after most recently directing last summer's hit A Marvelous Party! The Noël Coward Celebration.

The one-woman sensation Family Secrets by Sherry Glaser and Gregory Howells begins June 30^th as the actress single-handedly brings to life her five Jewish family members, transplanted from the Bronx to Southern California. Both a hilarious and deeply moving portrait of the head of household father, the manic mother, the earth mother, a short-fused sister and Grandma Rose. Family Secrets is the longest running one-woman show in Off-Broadway history and received raved reviews, including "Utterly hilarious" by The New York Times.

The uproarious and larger than life Sylvia by A.R. Gurney begins July 28^th. A whimsical comedy about a captivating canine named Sylvia (played by an actress) and the hilarity that results when man's best friend comes between husband and wife. After 22 years of marriage and with an empty nest, Greg and Kate finally have time to work on their strained relationship, until Sylvia is brought home. Kate is willing to go to great lengths to rid their home of the dog, but she does not anticipate Sylvia's affection. "Beautiful, funny, touching and profound," raved NY Daily News.

The first and third show in the Summerfest Season - Beehive, The 60s Musical and Sylvia - will be presented at FST's Keating Theatre. The second show Family Secrets will be presented at the Gompertz Theatre. Single tickets range from $19 for previews to $29-34 for regular performances. A subscription to all 3 shows ranges from $29-42.

SOUTH PACIFIC
August 19 - September 5, 2010

Music by Richard Rodgers
Lyrics by Oscar Hammerstein II
Book by Oscar Hammerstein II, Joshua Logan
Adapted from the Pulitzer Prize winning novel "Tales of the South Pacific" by James A. Michener

Set in an island paradise during World War II, two parallel love stories are threatened by the dangers of prejudice and war. Nellie, a spunky nurse from Arkansas, falls in love with a mature French planter, Emile. Nellie learns that the mother of his children was an island native and, unable to turn her back on the prejudices with which she was raised, refuses Emile's proposal of marriage. Meanwhile, the strapping Lt. Joe Cable denies himself the fulfillment of a future with an innocent Tonkinese girl with whom he's fallen in love out of the same fears that haunt Nellie. When Emile is recruited to accompany Joe on a dangerous mission that claims Joe's life, Nellie realizes that life is too short not to seize her own chance for happiness, thus confronting and conquering her prejudices.

"Few Broadway musicals can match the songs of SOUTH PACIFIC for their beguiling tunes and meaningful lyrics. Whether addressing such varied subjects as love at first sight, race prejudice or lost possibilities, they speak a rare yet simple language." - Los Angeles Times

Energy and Laughter Fill the Summer Season!
Florida Studio Theatre Announces Its 2010 Summerfest Season

An energizing trip down memory lane, a hilarious one-woman show and a whimsical comedy make up the 2010 Summerfest Season at FST that will keep Sarasota entertained all summer long! The Summerfest Season plays from June 2 through August 22 in the Keating and Gompertz Theatres. A Subscription to all 3 plays can be purchased for ½ off box office pricing! Packages range from $29-$42.

Artistic Director, Richard Hopkins stated, "FST's summer season is filled with great moments in theatre. Beehive, The 60s Musical offers memorable hits of the 60s with high energy and fervor. Family Secrets, the longest running one-woman show in Off-Broadway history, will expose hilarious family bonds, woes and triumphs. Sylvia returns to the FST stage with a comedic look at relationships and the pitfalls that occur and how the smallest things, in this case a dog, can turn everything on its ear."

Florida Studio Theatre kicks off its 2010 summer season with Beehive, The 60s Musical created by Larry Gallagher. The New York Times said Beehive is a "Hand-clapping, toe-tapping trip down memory lane." Over 35 exhilarating hit songs of the 60s that defined an era in music when women catapulted to the top of the Billboard charts. Relive some of the decade's most spirited and best known songs, including "My Boyfriend's Back," "One Fine Day," and "Downtown," as well as music from Tina Turner, Aretha Franklin and Janis Joplin. Beehive, The 60s Musical begins June 2^nd.

Director Fred Weiss will return to FST for Beehive, The 60s Musical, after most recently directing last summer's hit A Marvelous Party! The Noël Coward Celebration.

The one-woman sensation Family Secrets by Sherry Glaser and Gregory Howells begins June 30^th as the actress single-handedly brings to life her five Jewish family members, transplanted from the Bronx to Southern California. Both a hilarious and deeply moving portrait of the head of household father, the manic mother, the earth mother, a short-fused sister and Grandma Rose. Family Secrets is the longest running one-woman show in Off-Broadway history and received raved reviews, including "Utterly hilarious" by The New York Times.

The uproarious and larger than life Sylvia by A.R. Gurney begins July 28^th. A whimsical comedy about a captivating canine named Sylvia (played by an actress) and the hilarity that results when man's best friend comes between husband and wife. After 22 years of marriage and with an empty nest, Greg and Kate finally have time to work on their strained relationship, until Sylvia is brought home. Kate is willing to go to great lengths to rid their home of the dog, but she does not anticipate Sylvia's affection. "Beautiful, funny, touching and profound," raved NY Daily News.

The first and third show in the Summerfest Season - Beehive, The 60s Musical and Sylvia - will be presented at FST's Keating Theatre. The second show Family Secrets will be presented at the Gompertz Theatre. Single tickets range from $19 for previews to $29-34 for regular performances. A subscription to all 3 shows ranges from $29-42. Subscription tickets and single tickets may be purchased from the FST Box Office in person, by phone (941) 366-9000 or online at <www.floridastudiotheatre.org>

SOUTH PACIFIC
August 19 - September 5, 2010

Music by Richard Rodgers
Lyrics by Oscar Hammerstein II
Book by Oscar Hammerstein II, Joshua Logan
Adapted from the Pulitzer Prize winning novel "Tales of the South Pacific" by James A. Michener

Set in an island paradise during World War II, two parallel love stories are threatened by the dangers of prejudice and war. Nellie, a spunky nurse from Arkansas, falls in love with a mature French planter, Emile. Nellie learns that the mother of his children was an island native and, unable to turn her back on the prejudices with which she was raised, refuses Emile's proposal of marriage. Meanwhile, the strapping Lt. Joe Cable denies himself the fulfillment of a future with an innocent Tonkinese girl with whom he's fallen in love out of the same fears that haunt Nellie. When Emile is recruited to accompany Joe on a dangerous mission that claims Joe's life, Nellie realizes that life is too short not to seize her own chance for happiness, thus confronting and conquering her prejudices.

"Few Broadway musicals can match the songs of SOUTH PACIFIC for their beguiling tunes and meaningful lyrics. Whether addressing such varied subjects as love at first sight, race prejudice or lost possibilities, they speak a rare yet simple language." - Los Angeles Times

Yinka Shonibare MBE: Mother and Father Worked Hard So I Can Play
Organized by the Brooklyn Museum
Yinka Shonibare is best known for reinterpreting scenes taken from English Grand Manner painting through the use of headless mannequins dressed in 18^th-century styles. The costumes, however are constructed from contemporary Dutch wax fabric produced in Europe for an African market. Through blending historical styles with "African" visual motifs, Shonibare confronts issues of African identity and European colonialism in an, at times, playful manner.
