SCOTT ELLIS (Director) is the Associate Artistic Director of Roundabout Theatre Company. For Roundabout, he recently directed Entertaining Mr. Sloane with Alec Baldwin.

Mr. Ellis will direct the new Kander and Ebb musical Curtains starring David Hyde Pierce opening at the Ahmanson Theatre this August. REGINALD ROSE (Playwright) Reginald Rose was one of the premiere playwrights to emerge from the "Golden Age" of the television drama anthology series. Like his acclaimed contemporaries, Rose holds a place in history at the top of the craft of television writing. In addition to other accolades, Rose was nominated for six Emmy awards during his career, and won three. Although most of Rose's fame derives from his teleplays like "Twelve Angry Men," he also wrote a number of successful screen and stage plays, and went on to create and write scripts for "The Defenders," and to win recognition for the revived CBS Playhouse in the late 1960s. Rose's first teleplay to be broadcast was "The Bus to Nowhere," which appeared in 1951 on CBS's drama anthology series Studio One. It was the 1954-55 season that gave Rose his credentials as a top writer: that year has been referred to as "the Reginald Rose season" at Studio One. His contributions included the noted plays "12:32 a.m.," "An Almanac of Liberty," "Crime in the Streets" and his most well-known work, "Twelve Angry Men." In addition to winning numerous awards and undergoing transformation into a feature film, "Twelve Angry Men" established Rose's reputation as one of the most prolific writers of drama for television. What distinguished Rose's teleplays from those of his colleagues was their direct preoccupation with social and political issues. Rose tackled controversial social issues head-on. Although Rose kept his sights directed at the scrutiny of social institutions and mechanisms, his characters were as finely drawn as those writers who focused on domestic struggles. The tension created by exhausting deliberations within the confined closeness of the jury room in which Twelve Angry Men occurs is exemplary in this regard. The remake of this powerful drama into a successful feature film marked the breakthrough of the television drama aesthetic into Hollywood cinema. This gritty realism that became known as the "slice of life" school of television drama was for a time the staple of the anthology shows and reshaped the look of both television and American cinema. ROUNDABOUT THEATRE COMPANY (Todd Haimes, Artistic Director) was founded in 1965 and has grown from a small 150-seat theatre in a converted supermarket basement to become one of America's most significant producers of theatre. This not-for-profit company, with more than 44,000 season subscribers, is committed to producing definitive productions of classic plays and musicals alongside new plays by today's writers, ensuring that audiences and artists alike have access to high-quality, professional stagings of important works of world literature. With three distinctive homes, the American Airlines Theatre, Studio 54 and the Harold and Miriam Steinberg Center for Theatre/Laura Pels Theatre, Roundabout has the unique opportunity to showcase these works in a venue perfectly suited to enhance the production. Production highlights include Anna Christie (Tony®, Drama Desk and Outer Critics Circle Awards for Best Revival), She Loves Me (Outer Critics Circle, Drama Desk and Olivier Awards for Best Revival of a Musical), Nine (Tony®, Drama Desk and Outer Critics Circle Awards for Best Revival of a Musical), Assassins (Tony® and Drama Desk Awards for Best Revival of a Musical), Intimate Apparel (Outer Critics Circle and Audelco Awards for Best Off-Broadway Play), Twelve Angry Men (Drama Desk and Outer Critic's Circle Awards for Outstanding Revival of a Play) and Cabaret (Tony®, Drama Desk and Outer Critics Circle Awards for Best Revival of a Musical). With more than 2,300 performances, Cabaret was one of the longest-running musical revivals in Broadway history. Most recently, the company's sold-out production of The Pajama Game won the 2006 Tony® Award for Best Revival of a Musical. Since 1995, when Roundabout expanded its repertoire to include premieres of new plays, the company has produced works by such talented writers as Brian Friel, Paula Vogel, Richard Greenberg, Lynn Nottage, Beth Henley, Harold Pinter and Jon Robin Baitz. The Man Who Came to Dinner, the first production at the American Airlines Theatre on 42nd Street in 2000 and the star-studded production of The Women in June 2002 have been seen on TV, on channel Thirteen/WNET and other PBS stations nationally. Since moving to Broadway in 1991, Roundabout productions have received 122 Tony® nominations, 115 Drama Desk nominations and 128 Outer Critics Circle nominations. Beyond the work on stage, Roundabout is recognized as a national leader in audience development and offers a comprehensive program of initiatives including the Social Series, the Early Curtain Series, the Wine Series, the Gay and Lesbian Series and related humanities events and publications. The year 2002 marked the inaugural Jason Robards Award, created by Roundabout to recognize excellence in theatre. The first award was presented to Christopher Plummer at the company's spring Gala. Subsequent Jason Robards Awards have been presented to John Kander and Fred Ebb (2004) and Stephen Sondheim (2005). In addition, through arts education programs, Roundabout reaches more than 7,000 New York City public high school students and their teachers each year. With a focus on in-depth programming, these activities range from partnerships with three New Century High Schools (a NYC Department of Education Initiative) and professional development for teachers to in-school year-long residencies and student matinees at its Broadway and Off-Broadway theatres. Through national tours, live broadcasts, education and outreach programs and its work on three stages, Roundabout touches the lives of millions of theatregoers, students and artists across the country. www.roundabouttheatre.org |
