DEAR FRIENDS,
The moment I read Neville’s Island, I thought it would be a great fit for us. It’s silly, fun, and
more than a bit dark. But I have to admit, a big part of the reason I included it in the season is
the set. I often write in these letters about how important variety is to us and how much we
strive to make sure that every time you come to Stoneham Theatre is different from the last
time. Usually, that’s about the plays and musicals themselves, but sometimes it’s about variety
in other ways: like using actors that haven’t been on our stage before (and, by the way, we have
three of them in this show) or the scenery. In 15 seasons, we’ve never built a set like this. The
challenge of creating an island on our stage, complete with water and a climbable tree, was
just too tempting (and fun) to pass up.

We build our sets in our shop about a mile from the theatre. Jason, our Technical Director, Tito,
our Master Carpenter, and Brendan, our Carpenter, are the team that takes the plans provided
by the designer (in this case, Chris Ostrom, who has designed lights and/or scenery for many
of our shows) and turns them into the sets you see on our stage. From the beginning, we knew
this one was a bit different from our typical sets, and Jason and Tito brought mock-ups of rock
and tree treatments to our initial production meetings so that Chris and I could see what our
options were. In addition to trying to make it all look as realistic as possible, we tested the
treatments to see which would best withstand four actors climbing all over them.
And then when we started rehearsing, we realized that re-creating the feeling of all the trees,
rocks, and water in a rehearsal hall was also tricky. But through a combination of chairs, table,
cubes, and imagination, we did our best until we were able to play with the real thing.
There’s no doubt, this play presented all of us with a unique challenge. Hats off to our whole
team for all their hard work in rising to that challenge. We think it really paid off. Enjoy the
show!

We are proud to announce the creation of the Kilty Encore
Legacy Society at Stoneham Theatre. The Society recognizes
those individuals who have made a planned gift (a financial
gift to the theatre which will come at the end of their life) to
leave a supportive legacy so professional theatre in Stoneham
can be enjoyed by patrons for many years to come.
The Society has been named in honor of Patricia A. Kilty,
dedicated supporter and a Guild founder, whose commitment
to Stoneham and the theatre has spanned decades. Pat has
indicated that she has remembered the theatre in her estate
planning and is proud to share that fact with theatre donors,
in hope that her participation will inspire others to make a
pledge to support the future of Stoneham Theatre.

Just as directors, designers, and actors play a role in
a theatre, so do our donors. The role of the donor is
the first to be played before a show can be created.
Thank you to the following donors for being part of the
creative process. While space does not allow us to list
the many gifts received under $100, we are grateful to
every patron who donates and plays an important role
in the making of theatre.
*Members of the Marquee Society enjoy special
privileges, including invitations to cast parties,
special events, and behind-the-scenes opportunities.

The Guild at Stoneham Theatre is a volunteer

usher at over 225 performances each year, plus its
members assist with hospitality for guest artists,
fundraising events, and housing for visiting actors
and directors.
Members of the Guild provide countless hours of
service without which we would not be able to
offer the quality theatre-going experience you’ve
come to expect from Stoneham Theatre.
