Drama and mayhem:
the Book Club ecosystem
director MEREdITH McdonouGH joins us at dTC to
direct our first show of 2015, The Book Club Play,
playwright Karen Zacarías' smart comedy about
books and the people who love them. Before
rehearsals began, Meredith took a moment to
share a bit about what the play means for her.
I’ve never been in a book club. Reading has always
been a private activity for me—journeying alone
into new lands, meeting new people through
someone else’s eyes. I love the fantasy and the
endless personal imagination of it all. So when I
first encountered The Book Club Play, I was intrigued by the window that Karen
gave me into this unknown world. Even with all of the drama and mayhem
that these characters encounter and make for themselves, I have to say, now I’m
jealous. Of the community these groups create. They are their own ecosystem,
and in many ways, their own family. Each of the characters we meet in this play
is trying to figure out their own path, and each are fighting their own loneliness
in this public way. I’m fascinated by the juxtaposition the play presents as the
character’s innermost interpretations are displayed through the public eye of this
documentary filmmaker. How suddenly the act of “performing” ones thoughts
changes them. I certainly understand the desire to somehow find intimacy in
such clinical and observed situations, and find the plight of these characters truly
funny in their base humanity. I think we might all behave just as badly under the
manipulative microscope of Lars Knudsen…
I hope you can find a bit (or maybe more than a bit) of yourself in this world.
I’m sure you’ll recognize your own book club’s politics at play (or if you’re like
me, and book club-less, just substitute your favorite group of friends). We come
together in the theater to laugh together, to celebrate the live-ness of sharing
someone else’s struggles and victories. Take a bit of this book club into the
community that you’ve created and bring it a bit of new life!

KAREN ZACARÍAS
The Clan of
the Book Club
A Conversation with the Playwright
no ordinary playwright could come up with the book-club-within-a-documentary-within-a-play
that is The Book Club Play, and Karen Zacarías is certainly anything but ordinary. dTc’s own
Travis Ballenger sat down with Karen to learn more about this very unique piece of theater.
TB: What led you to writing The Book Club Play?
KZ: I’m in a book club—in fact, I’m going to it tonight! And there was a period of time in our lives when
we first started book club in our twenties… it was after college, and we were missing talking about
great works and hanging out with friends, and it was so great drinking wine and debating the mystery
of life. Then my husband was getting his hair cut by a former FBI agent who had been in a book club for
thirty years, and he said, “You think it all is great now, but there will come a time when you’ll have to be
ruthless—absolutely ruthless—if you want to protect your book club.”
TB: Oh wow.
16
Da l l a s The ater Ce nter
KZ: And we thought that was the weirdest thing we’d ever heard. And sure enough, about a month or
so later, somebody brought someone to our book club who was so annoying. (Laughs.) It brought out so
many funny, strong emotions. It was like we had become a clan, and this strange person had come in,
and he didn’t read the books, and he made fun of us… He was a lovely person, he really was, but, you
know, people stopped going, and the book club split in two and people got into fights. It was like high
school, it was completely like high school. And then I found out that this is not unique to our book club.
That any club that’s together for a long time gets tested. I would tell people on the metro or on the plane,
“Oh, I’m in a book club and I’m writing a play about book clubs.” And people would say, “Oh! My mother
was in a book club, and they decided that they could no longer serve wine and everything went to hell
in a handbasket.” Everybody had a story about their own book club. The other interesting thing is that
many more people are in book clubs than you suspect. It’s actually one of the biggest social constructs
of modern times—a way of people getting together, it’s like a salon. If you ask around your theater,
around your office, you’d be surprised how many people are a member of a book club
TB: I just started one!
KZ: There you go! I was also interested in why, in this day and age, how the antiquated art of reading
is becoming such an important way to building community.
TB: All of the characters in Book Club Play are so very diverse. They’re very different characters. You
seem to write diversity into your plays—that seems to be something that is important to you. Let me
know if I’m speaking out of turn.
KZ: Oh no, you’re totally correct.

impact creativity is an urgent call to action to save theatre
education programs in 19 of our largest cities. Impact
Creativity brings together theatres, arts education experts and
individuals to help over 500,000 children and youth, most of
them disadvantaged, succeed through the arts by sustaining
the theatre arts education programs threatened by today’s
fiscal climate. For more information on how “theatre education
