AUTHOR’S NOTES
Way back in 1991, Michael Scheman asked me a simple question, “Are you a fan of Stephen
Schwartz’s work?” “Absolutely,” I answered. Then he asked, “Did you know there’s no official
revue of his work?” I couldn’t believe it. How was it possible that the man who brought us
Godspell and so many other fantastic musicals didn’t have a revue? Michael and I, being in our
early twenties, decided that we were the ones to fix this glaring omission.
I had just finished creating a revue that was basically a series of songs connected by light patter
– and I found it somewhat unsatisfying as a writer. There was no narrative connection between
songs. Each moment had to start from scratch, and there was no cumulative emotional effect
by the end of the evening. I wanted to do something more. If I was going to write another revue,
I wanted to string the songs together to tell a story – with characters and arcs and emotional
punch. And again, being in our twenties, Michael and I thought this was a grand idea. We had no
idea that no one had successfully pulled this off before. We were also naïve enough to think that
we could just look up Stephen Schwartz in the phonebook (yes, there were phonebooks back
then), tell him our idea, and he would say, “That’s great! Go for it!”
And then a crazy thing happened: we looked up Stephen Schwartz in the phonebook, told him
our idea, and he said, “That’s great! Go for it!” Only later did I learn that that’s pretty much what
he says to everybody. But being naïve young men, we took him at his word and started working.
Two years later, we presented the material at the Dramatists’ Guild, and Stephen decided to join
us in process. Two years after that we had a production, and realized that we had much more work
to do. Then, as so often happens, our careers took us in different directions, and we put the
project on hold. For decades.
Snapshots is a memory piece that covers a couple’s relationship from the moment they met as
children, to their present empty-nest lives. At the time we began working, I was in my twenties,
and Stephen was in his forties – and we brought our respective life experiences to the piece.
When we picked it up again, I was in my forties, and Stephen in his sixties – and while the break
wasn’t planned, it turned out to be vital. Through the passage of time, and our new life experiences,
we were finally able to finish the piece.
So here it is: Snapshots – a musical mosaic love story built from the songs of Stephen Schwartz.
It only took twenty years to get here, but as you will hopefully discover: you can live a lifetime
in a couple of hours.

THE MUSIC OF STEPHEN SCHWARTZ
GODSPELL (1971) Godspell began as a college
project performed by students at Carnegie Mellon
University before moving to LaMaMa Experimental
Theatre Club in Greenwich Village. Re-scored
before it opened Off-Broadway in 1971, the show
has become a long-running success with numerous
productions, including a Broadway revival in 2011
and 2012. Depicting a series of parables based on
the Gospels of Matthew and Luke and interspersed
with lyrics from traditional hymns set to modern
music, Godspell’s hit song “Day by Day” from the
original cast recording reached #13 on the Billboard
pop singles chart during the summer of 1972.
The Company of Broadway’s 2011 revival of Godspell.
PIPPIN (1972) Derived from the old Burlesque style of Faust, a mysterious performance
troupe relates the story of Pippin, a young Prince, and his father Charlemagne (based loosely
on real individuals from the Middle Ages) who seek a sense of meaning and significance in the
world. Pippin premiered at Broadway’s Imperial Theatre in 1972, before going on to the West
End and numerous other productions. The American Repertory Theatre’s 2013 Broadway revival
won the Tony Award for Best Musical Revival, and is currently on National Tour.
WORKING (1977) Based on the 1974 book
Working: People Talk About What They Do All Day
and How They Feel About What They Do by Studs
Terkel, the musical Working premiered at Chicago’s
Goodman Theatre in 1977. It enjoyed a very
brief stint on Broadway in 1978 before moving on
to numerous developmental productions around
the country, returning to Broadway in 2011 after
significant revisions. The musical depicts the
hopes, dreams, concerns, and joys of the average
working American, told through vivid vignettes
of people that the world often takes for granted.

THE MAGIC SHOW (1978) The Magic Show, originally developed under the title
Spellbound and starring master magician Doug Henning, opened at Broadway’s Cort Theatre
in 1978, receiving Tony Award nominations for Henning’s performance as Best Featured Actor
in a Musical and for Best Direction of a Musical by director Grover Dale. The show features
the grandiose performance of aging alcoholic magician Feldman the Magnificent as the seedy
nightclub venue known as the Top Hat attempts to replace him with a younger act.
PERSONALS (1985) Personals premiered at Broadway’s Minetta Lane Theatre in 1985, and
was revived Off-West End in 1998. The story describes the never-ending search for love in a
comedic collection of monologues, scenes, and songs about the content of personal ads, and the
myriad of potential responses.
RAGS (1986) Rags opened on Broadway in 1986 at the Mark
Hellinger Theatre, where it ran for only four performances but
was nominated for five Tony Awards, including Best Musical,
Best Original Score, and Best Book of a Musical. A significantly
revised version was produced at The American Jewish Theatre
in New York City in 1991, and was reworked again in the late
1990s. The story centers on a young immigrant mother, Rebecca
Hershkowitz, who escapes to New York’s Lower East Side after
a pogrom and begins a love affair with American labor organizer Saul, who is working to unionize the sweatshop at which
Rebecca works.
Marilyn Caskey and Jonathan Andrew Bleicher in
the revised Rags at Paper Mill Playhouse, 1999.
THE BAKER’S WIFE (1989) A stage musical adaptation of the 1938 French film La Femme
du Boulanger by Marcel Pagnol and Jean Giono, The Baker’s Wife premiered in London’s West
End in 1989 and has since developed a dedicated cult following. The story centers upon a small
bickering town in rural 1930s France; after being without a baker for seven weeks, the town rejoices to welcome baker Aimable and his young wife Genevieve. When Genevieve is seduced by
a handsome young gigolo, Aimable loses his passion for life and for baking, prompting the town
to pull together to reunite the young couple.

Act II depicts the events of Noah and the flood.
The West End run of Children of Eden was cut somewhat short by the eruption of the Persian
Gulf War, and its subsequent negative effects on world tourism.
RELUCTANT PILGRIM (1997) A 1997 musical album recorded by Stephen Schwartz, loosely
based on his own life experiences and observations.
WICKED (2003) Based on Gregory Maguire’s
1995 novel Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked
Witch of the West, the musical depicts the lives
of the witches (Glinda the Good and the Wicked
Witch of the West) from L. Frank Baum’s classic
The Wonderful Wizard of Oz (1900) and the 1939
film adaptation The Wizard of Oz. Beginning prior
The Company of Broadway’s Wicked.
to and continuing through the arrival of Dorothy,
Wicked details the events that sent the two witches
down their respective paths of good and evil. Since its Broadway debut in 2003, Wicked has been
seen and broken box office records around the world. The name Elphaba, given to the Wicked
Witch of the West in Maguire’s novel, is an homage to L. Frank Baum, derived from the phonetic
sounds of his initials: LFB.
CAPTAIN LOUIE (2005) Adapted from the children’s book The Trip (1987) by Ezra Jack
Keats, Captain Louie premiered in the late 1980s and was revived Off-Broadway in 2005, before
going on to many other productions and a U.S. tour. Captain Louie tells the story of a young boy
from the city whose family relocates to a new neighborhood. Upset at leaving his friends behind,
Louie escapes into his own imagination on Halloween night to assuage his newfound loneliness.
ENCHANTED (2007) Disney’s 2007 live-action musical film starring Amy Adams, Patrick
Dempsey, James Marsden, Timothy Spall, Idina Menzel, Rachel Covey, and Susan Sarandon.

Now celebrating 49 years, Arizona Theatre Company (ATC) boasts the largest subscriber base of
any performing arts organization in Arizona, with more than 130,000 people each year attending
performances at the historic Temple of Music and Art in Tucson, and the elegant Herberger
Theater Center in downtown Phoenix. Each season of carefully selected productions reflects the
rich variety of world drama – from classic to contemporary plays, from musicals to new works,
as audiences enjoy a rich emotional experience that can only be captured through live theatre.
Touching lives through the power of theatre, ATC is the preeminent professional theatre in the
state of Arizona. Under the direction of Artistic Director David Ira Goldstein, ATC operates in
two cities – unlike any other League of Resident Theatres (LORT) company in the country.
ATC shares the passion of the theatre through a wide array of outreach programs, educational
opportunities, access initiatives and community events. Through the schools and summer programs,
ATC focuses on teaching Arizona’s youth about literacy, cultural development, performing arts,
specialty techniques used onstage, and opens their minds to the creative power of dramatic
literature. With approximately 450 Learning & Education activities annually, ATC reaches far
beyond the metropolitan areas of Tucson and Phoenix, enriching the theatre learning experience
for current and future audiences.
The mission of Arizona Theatre Company is to inspire, engage and entertain – one moment, one
production and one audience at a time.

T H E AT R E I N F O R M AT I O N
THE TEMPLE OF MUSIC AND ART
The Temple of Music and Art is a beautifully refurbished 1927 theatre, built in the Spanish
Colonial style that flavors so much of our city. ATC has identified the following services and
policies to ensure your comfort and enhance your experience at the theatre.
THEATRE POLICIES
Latecomers will be seated only at an appropriate and predetermined break in action. In order not
to disturb patrons who are already enjoying the performance, latecomers may be seated in
alternate locations until intermission. As a courtesy to our patrons and the actors, the use of
cameras and recording devices is not permitted within the theatre. Please restrict cellular phone
use to the courtyard only. Children under five are not permitted in the theatre during performances.
Emergency calls may also be made to the House Manager’s direct line: 520-884-4868.
Smoking is not permitted anywhere within the building. Designated smoking areas are located
in the front of the theatre only. In the event of smoking onstage, a sign will be posted in the lobby.
SPECIAL SERVICES
The theatre is equipped with an in-house infrared transmission system for use by patrons with
partial hearing loss or limited range of hearing. Complimentary assisted listening headsets are
available prior to every performance at the Box Office. Please be prepared to leave a driver’s
license or other form of identification while using your headset. Every production is available in
American Sign Language. For information on the dates of our ASL performances, please contact
the Box Office. An in-house FM broadcast system is used to provide a running audio description
of the movement and activities onstage for patrons with limited vision. Pre-show tactile tours of
the backstage area and a pre-show narration about our building, the performers, and interpretive
information about the play itself are available upon request. Contact the Box Office to make your
reservation for the audio described performances. Coordinated with the action onstage, those in
open-captioned seating will be able to read the play’s dialogue displayed in large green letters on
an LED screen. For open-captioned performance dates, contact the Box Office. Large print and
Braille playbills are available for all performances in the House Manager’s office in the lobby of
the theatre. Accessible seating is available via the Box Office for all performances. If you would
like seating assistance at the theatre, please contact the House Manager at 520-884-4868.
