VISION 

Goodman Theatre is Chicago’s oldest and largest not-for-profit theater, internationally renowned for the quality of its productions, 

the depth and diversity of its artistic leadership, and for its many education and community programs. 

The vision of the Goodman is to become the premier cultural organization in Chicago through productions and community 

programs that make an essential contribution to the quality of life in our society. 

The Goodman has identified three institutional values that form the basis for the vision and objectives of Goodman Theatre, 

and serve as guiding pillars for our productions and programming. These values are: 

Quality 

Goodman Theatre believes that live theater illuminates the past, informs the present and 

imagines the future. We seek to provide our audiences with the definitive theater experience. 

We strive to give our artists the resources that enable them to do the best possible work with 

the highest standards of excellence. 

Diversity 

Goodman Theatre believes that respect for diversity is a cornerstone of our community and 

our society. Our work features a variety of aesthetics, cultures and modes of theatrical expression. 

We are committed to promoting creativity, collaboration, artistic risk-taking, freedom of 

expression and cultural diversity. 

Community 

Goodman Theatre believes that live theater plays a unique role in the educational, social and 

economic development of a community. For example, theater develops cognitive skills, emotional 

growth and moral awareness, particularly in young people. Since the Goodman is a part of 

the community, we believe that we have a responsibility to improve the quality of life through 

our productions and education programs.

Artistic Development 

As one of America’s leading professional theaters, the 

Goodman is committed to the development of new plays 

that may in time become tomorrow’s classics. The creation 

of new work is effected in a number of ways: new and established 

writers are commissioned; works in progress enjoy 

readings and workshops; and full productions are mounted. 

During the 2005/2006 Season, the New Work Development 

Committee, under the co-chairmanship of Trustees Eugene 

Zeffren and Cyndi Simon, provided ongoing support to these 

play development efforts. 

New play development activities during the Season included the following: 

Commissions 

A new work (tentatively titled Two Echoes) by playwright 

Noah Haidle, whose play Vigils received its world premiere 

at the Goodman in October 2006. Haidle’s other plays include 

Mr. Marmalade, Rag and Bone, Princess Marjorie and 

Persephone. His work has been produced at South Coast 

Repertory, Long Wharf Theatre, Roundabout Theatre and 

Huntington Theatre. 

A new work by playwright Rebecca Gilman, whose plays Spinning 

into Butter, Boy Gets Girl, Blue Surge and Dollhouse 

were each commissioned and premiered at the Goodman. 

Many of these have gone on to subsequent productions in 

New York, regionally and abroad. 

Commissions currently in development 

Under the auspices of the Joyce Awards (sponsored by The 

Joyce Foundation), a Goodman commission was awarded in 

2004 to playwright Naomi Iizuka for the creation of a new 

play titled Ghostwritten that deals with Southeast Asian refugees 

living in the Midwest. The author of such award-winning 

plays as 36 Views, Polaroid Stories and The Language of 

Angels, Iizuka conducted research through interviews with 

members of the South Asian community in Chicago, as well 

as through travel to Cambodia in 2005 and 2006. 

Playwright Lynn Nottage, in collaboration with director Kate 

Whoriskey, is developing a new play inspired by her travels 

to Africa. Nottage is the author of such plays as Crumbs 

from the Table of Joy (staged in the spring of 2006), Intimate 

Apparel and Fabulation, all of which have received 

numerous professional productions. 

Our Lady of the Underpass, a new play by Chicago-based 

playwright Tanya Saracho, was commissioned under the 

auspices of the Ofner Prize—an award granted biennially to 

a promising local playwright. Based on interviews and research 

surrounding the apparent image of the Virgin Mary on 

the Fullerton Avenue underpass in Chicago’s Logan Square 

neighborhood, the play received a public reading as part of 

the 2006 New Stages Series. 

Workshops 

In the summer of 2006, the Goodman hosted a week-long 

workshop of Vigils by Noah Haidle, in preparation for the 

production of the play during the 2006/2007 Owen Theatre 

Season. The workshop allowed the playwright to hone the 

script and to begin the collaboration with director Kate 

Whoriskey, members of the cast and the designers. 

Latino Theatre Festival New Works Weekend 

In conjunction with the biennial Latino Theatre Festival, the 

Goodman hosted workshops of four new plays, as well as 

several panel discussions on topics related to new work by 

Latino playwrights. Taking place over the course of the first 

weekend of the festival, readings and performances included 

a new solo piece by nationally recognized playwright and 

performance artist Luis Alfaro entitled The Night Minnie 

Ripperton Saved My Life; a reading of Tanya Saracho’s Quita 

Mitos in conjunction with Teatro Luna; a reading of Migdalia 

Cruz’s play El Grito Del Bronx in conjunction with Teatro 

Vista; and a reading of Chicago-based playwright Carlos 

Murillo’s Dark Play, or Stories for Boys. The weekend was 

attended by a number of local and national theater artists 

and producers, both at the Goodman and the Palmer House 

Hilton, in conjunction with the annual Association for Theatre 

in Higher Education Conference.

New Work in Production 

During the 2005/2006 Season, the Goodman supported new 

work by emerging and established writers through its commissions 

and development programs and productions. New 

work produced on the Goodman stage during the 2005/2006 

Season included: 

Beyond Glory 

Adapted, directed and performed by Stephen Lang 

From the book by Larry Smith 

A stunning one-man tour-de-force, Beyond Glory featured 

the testimony of Medal of Honor recipients who served their 

country in World War II, Korea and Vietnam. Actor Stephen 

Lang embodied these men in his elegant and deeply moving 

adaptation of Larry Smith’s book, examining the defining moments 

in each veteran’s life—and exploring the true meaning 

of courage and humility. 

The Dreams of Sarah Breedlove 

Written and directed by Regina Taylor 

Commissioned and first produced by Alabama Shakespeare 

Festival, this second production of The Dreams of Sarah 

Breedlove offered Goodman Artistic Associate Regina Taylor 

the invaluable opportunity to continue work on her epic new 

play about African American icon Madam C.J. Walker, the 

daughter of slaves who became the country’s first self-made 

female millionaire and a key figure in the advancement of 

civil rights at the beginning of the 20th century. 

New Stages Series 

Established in 2004, the New Stages Series is an annual 

celebration of new work featuring free concert readings of 

outstanding work that is under consideration for production 

at Goodman Theatre. Two of the plays featured in the first 

New Stages Series, Mariela in the Desert and Floyd and 

Clea Under the Western Sky, were produced the following 

season; Vigils, by Noah Haidle, one of the plays featured in 

the 2005/2006 series, was produced in the fall of 2006. 

The plays featured in the 2005/2006 festival were: 

SIX Postcards

Crippled Sisters

Sam’s Coming

Palmer Park

Get What You Need

Vigils

Funding for the 2005/2006 New Stages Series was provided in part by a 

generous grant from the Elizabeth F. Cheney Foundation. 

Artistic research and development programs at Goodman Theatre were initiated 

in 1988 through a gift from The Lester and Hope Abelson Fund for Artistic 

Development. Ongoing funding for artistic development has been provided 

by Mrs. Abelson with additional support from the Illinois Art Council, a state 

agency; The Joyce Foundation; John S. and James L. Knight Foundation; Mc- 

Cormick Tribune Foundation; Andrew W. Mellon Foundation; and the National 

Endowment for the Arts.

From the Artistic Director 

From an exhilarating revival of a classic Broadway musical to a new play about one of America’s economic 

and cultural icons, the 2005/2006 Goodman Theatre Season featured a diverse blend of the old and the 

new, the contemporary and the classic—and festivals honoring the prolific career of David Mamet, our 

celebrated native son, and the best of Latino theater. 

The Albert season roared to exuberant life with Purlie, a galvanizing reworking by director Sheldon Epps 

of the 1970 musical based on Ossie Davis’s wicked satire of the Old South, co-produced with the Pasadena 

Playhouse. In January, Manilow Resident Director Mary Zimmerman’s incandescent reinvestigation 

of Pericles, one of Shakespeare’s most magical and moving works, came to the Albert stage direct from a 

triumphant run at Shakespeare Theatre Company in Washington, D.C. Another much-lauded young director, 

Jessica Thebus, made her Goodman debut with The Clean House, Sarah Ruhl’s quirky, funny, deeply 

affecting study of death, love and the saving force of humor. Artistic Associate Regina Taylor closed the 

Albert season with The Dreams of Sarah Breedlove, a moving portrait of the public successes and private 

heartbreak of Madam C. J. Walker, America’s first self-made female millionaire, a role that was vibrantly 

portrayed by L. Scott Caldwell. 

In the Owen, actor/playwright Stephen Lang mesmerized audiences with Beyond Glory, his one-man tour-de-force, bringing to 

life eight American heroes, all recipients of the Medal of Honor. In May, Resident Director Chuck Smith mounted a richly textured 

revival of Lynn Nottage’s Crumbs from the Table of Joy, a beautifully resonant coming-of-age story set in 1950s Harlem. 

And in the midst of all of this activity, we proudly honored Chicago’s own David Mamet with a six-week festival of his work, 

featuring the old (my own revival of A Life in the Theatre) and the new (Pam MacKinnon’s caustically hilarious rendering of 

Mamet’s most recent play, Romance), plus evenings of one-acts, special events (including a memorable interview with Mamet 

himself, conducted by retired Chicago Tribune chief theater critic Richard Christiansen) and even a show for children, The 

Revenge of the Space Pandas or Binky Rudich and the Two-Speed Clock. 

Special events included A Christmas Carol, celebrating its 28th birthday this season and once again featured the sparkling 

direction of Kate Buckley and the wonderfully resonant Scrooge of William Brown. And to cap it all off, the two-week Latino 

Theatre Festival, curated by Resident Artistic Associate Henry Godinez in August, was a feast for theatergoers from all communities, 

featuring return visits by performers Luis Alfaro and Marta Carrasco; Chicago premieres of productions by Spain’s fabled 

Comediants, Brazil’s Pia Fraus, and the New York-based Universes; readings of new works by the newest generation of Latino 

authors; and other noteworthy events, including a concert reading of Hugo Salcedo’s contemporary tragedy The Crossing, 

followed by a compelling discussion of America’s controversial immigration policies with noted local political luminaries. 

Of course, none of this activity would have been possible without the dedicated efforts of literally dozens of outstanding artists; 

our collective of resident artists, whose passions are at the core of our artistic mission; a talented staff, led by General Manager 

Katherine Murphy and Associate Producer Steve Scott; our distinguished boards, whose support forms the backbone of Goodman 

Theatre; and my producing partner of nearly two decades, Executive Director Roche Schulfer. And to our legions of supportive, 

discerning, dedicated audience members and donors I offer my most sincere thanks. As I’ve noted many times before, you are 

the lifeblood of our work.

From the Executive Director 

The 2005/2006 Season was filled with powerful playwrights, artists and productions that furthered 

the Goodman’s mission and embodied our continuing commitment to quality, diversity and the 

Chicago community. 

Artistic Director Robert Falls and the Artistic Collective created an amazing season of visually stunning and 

provocative works that increased the scope of the plays produced in the Albert Theatre, drew new patrons 

into the Owen Theatre and linked both of these spaces with two festivals of unprecedented proportion. 

Accomplishments of the 2005/2006 Season include: 

• The Goodman produced 22 plays, presentations, programs and special events for an audience 

of 300,000. 

• Attendance reached 90% for the second consecutive year, with more than 25,000 subscribers 

between the Albert and Owen Theatres. 

• The theater raised $500,000 in new annual support, including a record number of production 

sponsorships, and saw dramatic growth in the Scenemakers Council, an auxiliary group comprised of young, diverse professionals 

who aid audience development. 

• A major new branding campaign was launched, including a fully updated website featuring photos, interviews and 

behind-the-scenes footage for all Albert productions, that eases the process for purchasing tickets and subscriptions, and 

making on-line donations. 

This season, Trustee Lester N. Coney assumed the role of Board Chairman with the contagious enthusiasm and visionary 

leadership that inspires the work of his fellow Trustees. The dedication of our Board of Trustees and Women’s Board, combined 

with the tireless efforts of the Goodman staff under the leadership of General Manager Kathy Murphy, Associate Producer Steve 

Scott, Finance Director Peter Calibraro, Director of Management Deb Clapp, Director of Development Dorlisa Martin, Marketing 

and PR Director Lori Kleinerman, Production Manager Scott Conn and Publicity Director Denise Garrity, is the foundation of the 

Goodman’s success. 

Finally, I would like to thank our audiences, volunteers and more than 6,000 donors for your support this season and every 

season. It simply would not happen without you. If you would like more information about the Goodman, please do not hesitate 

to contact me at RocheSchulfer@GoodmanTheatre.org.

From the Chairman 

It gives me great pride to look back on my first year as Chairman during the Goodman’s 2005/2006 

Season. We continued to uphold our values of quality, diversity and community in all areas of our work. 

We reached diverse audiences with the grand scope of works on our stages, built upon the Goodman’s 

longstanding dedication to new work, and supported the work of the Goodman’s Artistic Collective, as 

well as some of America’s most influential theater artists. 

In addition to the productions in our subscription season, a number of special events graced the Goodman’s 

stages this year including the annual production of A Christmas Carol; the David Mamet Festival, a comprehensive 

look at the works of one of Chicago’s best-known playwrights; and the Latino Theatre Festival. 

During the 2005/2006 Season, the Goodman’s Education and Community Programs were a vital part 

of the theater’s programming with the 20th Anniversary of the Student Subscription Series; the summer 

Youth Drama Workshop, Yollocalli, in collaboration with the Mexican Fine Arts Center Museum; and The 

General Theater Studies program. The Student Subscription Series grew from 1,800 to 2,700 participants—the 

largest increase in the program’s history. 

The Goodman family, composed of artists and staff, the Board of Trustees, the Women’s Board, the Scenemakers Council, institutional 

and individual donors, and our patrons and subscribers, was incredibly generous this year in supporting the Goodman’s 

artistic excellence and vision. I am truly grateful for all they do to further our mission to become the premier cultural institution 

in Chicago. I am especially thankful for the leadership of Vice Chairs Shawn M. Donnelley and Peter I. Mason and President 

Vicki V. Hood, who are terrific partners in leading the charge of this amazing organization. 

There are many leaders in our community who have contributed unprecedented support to the Goodman this year: Katherine A. 

Abelson and Robert J. Cornell, American Airlines, American Family Insurance, Susan and James Annable, Aon Corporation, The 

Boeing Company, CNA Foundation, Chase, The Chicago Community Trust, Patricia Cox and Family, Gaylord and Dorothy Donnelley 

Foundation, Doris Duke Charitable Foundation, Julius Frankel Foundation, Albert Ivar Goodman and his late mother’s foundation the 

Edith-Marie Appleton Foundation, Harris Private Bank, Illinois Arts Council, The Joyce Foundation, Katten Muchin Rosenman LLP, Kraft 

Foods, LaSalle Bank, The John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation, Meg and Peter Mason, McCormick Tribune Foundation, Nancy 

Lauter McDougal and Alfred L. McDougal, Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, The Elizabeth Morse Charitable Trust, National Endowment for 

the Arts, Polk Bros. Foundation, The Renaissance Hotel, The Shubert Foundation, Wal-Mart and the Women’s Board of Goodman Theatre. 

It has been a pleasure serving as Chairman of the Board during this 2005/2006 Season, and I am thankful for having the 

finest artists, the hardest-working staff and the most engaged boards to help me represent the Goodman as one of the finest 

cultural organizations in Chicago.

From the Women’s Board 

The 2005/2006 Season proved to be very successful for the Women’s Board, raising more than $900,000 

for Goodman Theatre. A portion of these funds was allocated to sponsor the production of David Mamet’s 

A Life in the Theatre. 

Our major fundraiser, Goodman Theatre’s annual Gala, was held on May 6, 2006, and featured an 

outstanding performance by Tony Award-winning actress Kristin Chenoweth. I would like to acknowledge 

our Major Sponsors Katherine A. Abelson and Robert J. Cornell for their extraordinary generosity. And a 

very special thanks to our Sponsor Partners: Edith-Marie Appleton Foundation, Commercial Packaging/ 

Smurfit-Stone Container Corporation, CNA, Alice and John Sabl, and Richard and Sheryl Weisberg. We 

are also grateful to American Airlines, the Goodman’s exclusive airline, for its wonderful ongoing support 

of the Gala, raffle and auction. And cheers to our Gala Co-Chairs, Katherine A. Abelson and Richard 

Weisberg and Planning Chair Linda Robin, thank you for your exceptional leadership and tireless commitment—it 

was a spectacular evening! 

A host of additional fundraising activities took place throughout the season, including the Fame Fantasy Adventure Auction, 

Annual Appeal and Raffle. I would like to acknowledge the following Women’s Board members and Trustees for the leadership 

roles they played during the year: Ellen Gignilliat and Karen Pigott, Annual Appeal Co-Chairs; Denise Stefan and Leon Dreimann, 

Auction Co-Chairs; Kathy Fox, Décor Chair; Debbie Beitler and Karen Goodyear, Decor Committee; Rosemary Tourville, 

Favors Chair; Christine Branstad, Mary Ann Karris and Gwen Ritchie, Favors Committee; Sherry John, Invitation Chair; Kathy 

Fox and Danielle Zimmerman, Invitation Committee; Linda Curtis O’Bannon, Linda Robin and Linda Saranow, Menu Committee; 

Gloria Lehr, Linda Robin and Rosemary Tourville, Music Committee; Beverly Blettner and Pat Kaplan, Raffle Co-Chairs; 

Susan Wislow, Underwriting Chair; Sharon Angell, Marcia Cohn, Susan Downing, Cindy Levin, Alice Sabl and Carole David 

Stone, Underwriting Committee; Nancy Lauter McDougal and Gwendolyn Ritchie, Women’s Board representatives on the Community 

Arts in Education Committee. 

It has been an honor to work with the outstanding members of the Women’s Board. I am most grateful to all of them for their 

generous support during my term as president. I turn over the presidency to my very capable successor, Alice Young Sabl. I am 

sure she will experience the many great rewards I have had in working with this talented group of women.

Scenemakers Council 

Goodman Theatre Scenemakers Council is an auxiliary group 

comprised of diverse, young professionals who support and 

contribute to artistic creativity and excellence. The Scenemakers 

actively promote the mission of the Goodman by acting as 

ambassadors to raise awareness and philanthropic support 

for the theater and its exemplary productions and events. 

The Scenemakers celebrated their first fundraising event on 

August 10, 2006, with a performance of Las Mil y una Noches 

during the Goodman’s Latino Theatre Festival, followed by a 

post-show reception at Rumba Restaurant. Guests had the 

opportunity to experience creative and innovative theater from 

Spain and then danced the night away at the post-party to 

salsa and Latin music. 

In total, the Scenemakers increased their membership from 7 

to 41 members and contributed over $30,000 to the theater.

Education and Community Programs 

Goodman Theatre’s Education and Community Programs are 

models of excellence in arts integration for the City of Chicago 

and the national theater community. Providing year-round 

programs for learners of all ages through innovative partnerships 

with schools, teachers, students, audience members, 

Chicago-area cultural institutions and the community at large. 

Student Subscription Series 

For 20 consecutive seasons, the free Student Subscription 

Series has been offered to Chicago public high schools and 

continued to attract national and international attention. This 

season, through the addition of A Christmas Carol to the 

roster of productions available to the Series, we were able 

to increase the number of participating students and high 

schools by 50 percent. As a result, nearly 2,700 students 

and 69 teachers from 45 schools received free subscriptions

to attend weekday matinee performances of five productions 

in the Albert Theatre. Materials furnished to these educators 

and their students included scripts, student and teacher guides, 

OnStage magazine, and “Backstage at the Goodman” DVD 

documentaries. Supplementing these materials were seminars 

for teachers featuring pre-show dialogues with artists from the 

production along with a preview performance; discussions 

with cast members following each matinee; and classroom 

visits by cast members. Parents were offered free tickets to 

evening performances so that they could share the experience 

with their children. 

including Saturday seminars on teaching Shakespeare, the 

adaptation of actor training techniques for classroom use 

and a semester-long class helping teachers create curriculua 

for teaching dramatic literature. Participating teachers 

in both programs received “Lane Change” credit from the 

Chicago Public School system. 

Youth Drama Workshop 

It was another banner year for the Summer Youth Drama 

Workshop (YDW). In its ninth year, the Yollocalli YDW, in 

partnership with the Mexican Fine Arts Center Museum 

(MFACM), brought together a group of teenagers from the 

Pilsen neighborhood to collaborate on a production of Jungalbook, 

adapted from Rudyard Kipling. Under the artistic 

leadership of Resident Artistic Associate Henry Godinez and 

developed by teaching artists Maritza Cervantes and Tony 

Sancho, the students were guided through a series of writing 

and performance activities, as well as workshops in animal 

behavior and movement. They brought the world of the jungle 

to life for a full house of friends, family and community 

members. It was a privilege to continue the relationship with 

the MFACM and the Pilsen community. This year was made 

even more special by the continuation of Yollocalli YDW 

alumna Hilda Franco as a member of the teaching staff, after 

serving as an apprentice artist in the program for five years. 

General Theater Studies program 

In its second year, the General Theater Studies program 

brought 46 high school students from around the city together 

to collaborate in the Goodman’s rehearsal halls. Resident 

Director Chuck Smith served as program director—with lead 

teaching artist Reginald Lawrence and teaching artists Kevin 

Douglas and Larry Nance—and designed a curriculum which 

used the study of directing and set, costume, lighting and 

sound design as a basis for building reading and writing skills, 

teamwork and ensemble, and introducing students to theater 

basics. Though none of the participants had ever attempted 

to direct or design a play before, in five short weeks they had 

collaboratively created full design presentations and staged 

readings of selected scenes from Shepsu Aakhu’s play Fascia. 

The students performed their staged readings and presented 

their designs to their family and friends and Goodman staff 

and supporters. 

In addition to these activities, the Goodman offered several 

special programs for Chicago public high school teachers,

AUDIENCE EDUCATION 

Internship Program 

During the 2005/2006 Season, Goodman Theatre’s Internship 

Program provided career training for 35 qualified undergraduate 

and graduate students and early-career professionals in 

a variety of areas. Each year the Goodman welcomes interns 

to work in every area of theater, from artistic administration, 

education and technical production to stage management, 

marketing and fundraising. Chosen from a highly competitive 

pool of applicants, interns receive a small stipend for their 

work and qualified participants may be eligible to receive 

college credit and/or Equity membership points. 

An adjunct to this program, the Maggio Directing Fellowship 

provides an early-career, Chicago-based director with a 

season-long experience at the Goodman. Created to honor 

the memory of former Associate Artistic Director Michael 

Maggio—who was a dynamic educator and mentor to young 

directors—the fellowship provides its recipient a stipend, 

the opportunity to assist a Goodman director on a production, 

and a variety of additional experiences as part of the 

Goodman’s artistic staff. The 2005/2006 Maggio Fellow 

was Dado, a director and an actor in Chicago for more than 

10 years. She is the director of education for Emerald City 

Theatre Company (ECTC), as well as an artistic associate. 

Audience Education 

The Stage Door Series is designed to provide an insider’s 

view of the world of theater through lectures, discussions and 

performances that focus on selected Goodman productions. 

Presented under the auspices of Goodman’s Theatre Arts 

Committee, Stage Door presentations in 2005/2006 included: 

The Healing Power of Laughter 

In The Clean House, playwright Sarah Ruhl tackles two 

subjects that are rarely found in the same sentence: comedy 

and cancer. This discussion explored why those two topics do 

belong together, addressing research and anecdotal evidence 

about the healing power of laughter. Speakers included Dr. Ed 

Dunkenblau, past president of the Association of Applied and 

Therapeutic Humor, director of the Institute for Emotionally 

Intelligent Learning and a clinical psychologist in private 

practice; Cartoonist Nicole Hollander, creator of the nationally 

syndicated comic strip Sylvia; and a representative from 

Gilda’s Club, a national network of support communities for 

men, women and children living with cancer named for the 

late comedienne Gilda Radner. 

slaves, Walker (née Breedlove) built an empire by manufacturing 

and selling hair goods and preparations. She went on 

to become an important philanthropist and tireless advocate 

for civil rights. This discussion focused on Madame Walker’s 

legacy as a powerful role model for women and African 

Americans, gathering together some of Chicago’s top female 

and African American entrepreneurs to reflect on her example, 

and to assess what progress has been made since her time 

and what obstacles to success continue to exist. 

The Crossing: Reading and PANEL DISCUSSION 

As part of the 2006 Latino Theatre Festival, Resident Artistic 

Associate and Festival Curator Henry Godinez directed a staged 

reading of Hugo Salcedo’s provocative and timely play The 

Crossing, dealing with the tragic deaths of eighteen Mexican 

workers attempting entry into the United States. This performance 

was followed by a discussion of the many controversies 

surrounding current American immigration policies led by 

Antonio Mora, anchorman for CBS-2’s nightly newscast.The 

panel included U.S. Representative Jesse Jackson, Jr.; playwright 

Luis Alfaro; Susan Gzesh, Senior Lecturer and Director 

of the Human Rights Program at the University of Chicago; Fr. 

Bruce Willems of Holy Cross/Immaculate Heart of Mary Parish 

in the Back of the Yards neighborhood; and Jose Artemio 

Arreola, local community activist and co-leader of Chicago’s 

historic immigration demonstration on March 10, 2006. 

Noon Salons at the Goodman 

Each season, the Goodman provides the Noon Salon series, 

noontime discussions of selected Goodman productions. Hosted 

by members of the artistic staff and featuring guest scholars 

(in partnership with the Graham School of Continuing Education 

at the University of Chicago), these events provide historical 

and literary background for the production, while also providing 

a forum for the discussion of artistic, social and political 

issues surrounding the play. 

The Goodman is pleased to recognize the following donors who have 

provided significant support to our Education and Community programs
