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 />

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 />

“ 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 />
