1 – The Mountaintop

Now in its 59th season, Milwaukee Repertory Theater is dedicated to providing the highest level of professional theater to Milwaukee and Wisconsin in addition to offering a wide range of educational and community programs. Located in the heart of downtown Milwaukee in a cleverly converted power generation plant, the Patty and Jay Baker Theater Complex, Milwaukee Repertory Theater houses three theaters, the Quadracci Powerhouse (720 seats), the Stiemke Studio (205 seats) and the Stackner Cabaret (118 seats), which is also a full-service restaurant and bar. Together, these spaces offer a variety of staging options from compelling dramas, powerful classics, award-winning contemporary works to full-scale musicals and comedies. Milwaukee Repertory Theater is committed to creating plays that are meaningful and relevant to the society we live in – plays that are challenging, visceral and engage the community through the issues they explore. With the start of the 2012/13 Season, The Rep expanded its Artistic Family to 19 Associate Artists. This new creative initiative will build upon the indelible legacy of The Rep’s Acting Company and now will expand to include directors, writers, designers, musicians and actors. This group will help participate and advise in choosing plays The Rep produces as well as other initiatives. They will contribute to the work seen on all Rep stages, read scripts, engage in education projects, along with other duties as well as serve as advocates for The Rep in their home communities across the nation. The Rep has long been committed to a core group of artists and this new ensemble will continue The Rep’s commitment to giving voice to a broad spectrum of cultural, educational and community experiences that serve and reflect the diversity of perspectives found in this region.

DI R E C T O R ’ S N O T E S

It’s been roughly 44 years since Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., was assassinated on the balcony of the Lorraine Motel outside room 306. He has been gone longer from this world than he was on it, perishing at age 39.

As iterated in his last public speech, Dr. King knew that “we as a people would get to the promised land,” though he knew he would not get there with us. Forty-four years later, America is as insidiously

divided by class and race lines as it was in 1968, and I wonder what the opinionated Reverend might have to say about America today. What would he say about our first black President? The great divide between Red and Blue states? Our immigration policies? Our labor practices here and abroad? The overwhelming economic disparity? Gun control? Redistricting and voter disenfranchisement? Sadly, we will never know.

In my frustration at the current political climate and our stagnancy in fighting poverty and upholding civil rights, I pine for another perfect leader like Dr. King to pave the way for us. To lead us to the promised land. We seem to be rudderless without such a man.

But to raise him to sainthood is doing a great disservice to the “Preacher Kang.” Like each of us, he felt exhaustion, frustration, weariness and despair. He didn’t always know the answers; he proved himself vain at times. He sometimes ate too much, drank too much and stayed up too late. When he died, we erected statues, renamed street corners and honored him with a national holiday. We celebrate his heroism, his long list of achievements and his incomparable spirit. But by keeping him on a distant pedestal, we fail to realize that we can go and do likewise.

So to look to the next Dr. King, I might just as well look in the mirror, or hold a mirror up to any one of us. We all have the capacity to work towards a world of justice and equality. And when we fail, disappoint and fall short, we can imagine that Martin might say to us: “The dream may not be fulfilled, but it’s just good that you have a desire to bring it into reality.”

The Mountaintop is an invitation for us to march toward that promised land. It invites us to embrace that dream in our hearts and to walk willingly toward it every day. In the words of the blessed Reverend, “Let us rise up tonight with greater readiness. Let us stand with a greater determination. And let us move on in these powerful days, these days of challenge to make America what it ought to be. We have an opportunity to make America a better nation.”
