AUDREY SKIRBALL KENIS THEATER AT THE GEFFEN PLAYHOUSE

IN & OF ITSELF

WELCOME TO DEREK DelGAUDIO’S WORLD PREMIERE show In & Of Itself. Normally, we create theater that inevitably has a

sense of illusion to it, but every so often, we like to shake things up and

program illusion infused with theater.

Derek, whom we welcome back after his stunning debut in Nothing to

Hide in 2012 at the Geffen, has helped us broaden the very nature of

theater we program in the Audrey Skirball Kenis Theater. Quite apart

from the astonishing illusion he creates for an audience, Derek maintains

a rapport and a narrative that incorporates not only magic but theater in

the truest sense of the word. Derek has taken this art form and crafted

a new type of multi-faceted performance art with illusion as the nexus

around which the show revolves.

To help mold Derek’s story is none other than Frank Oz. A masterful

director, storyteller and puppeteer, Frank is responsible for creating many

of the most beloved characters of our time, including Miss Piggy, Cookie

Monster and Yoda. His work in bringing the inanimate to roaring life

remains a glittering example of the marriage he creates between magic

and storytelling. Frank has shaped In & Of Itself with his signature sense

of wonder and, along with Derek, has guided an incredible team of artists

through a design process that not only serves the complicated needs of

an illusionist but also helps bring the story to life. Their collaboration has

led them to create an evening sure to blow your mind.

We are pleased once again to have the opportunity to share a brand new

show with you in our ongoing commitment to building a home for artists

to experiment and push boundaries. We believe that this artistic freedom

allows for the best of what is possible to emerge in the process.

Enjoy the show!

WELCOME TO IN & OF ITSELF IN THE AUDREY SKIRBALL Kenis Theater! I’d like to take this opportunity to thank you for being

a part of the Geffen Playhouse family this year — our 20th anniversary

season — whether you’re a long-time subscriber, donor or new to the

theater. As we reflect on the past 20 years and look toward a bright and

expanding future, it is with much enthusiasm and pride that I share with

you an important update on the future of the organization. This year, we

are launching the public phase of our Legacy Fund campaign, which will

ensure the stability and longevity of this theater. The Legacy Fund has

been made possible by extraordinary leadership gifts pledged during

the initial phase of the campaign this past year, along with a significant

challenge grant generously provided by David Geffen. Still, this is just

the beginning. To learn more about the Legacy Fund, please contact

Regina Miller, our Chief Development Officer, at 310.208.6500 ext. 112 or

[email protected].

Our dreams for the theater continue to grow, as does the critical need in

our community for the type of bold artistic work, innovative education

programming and long-term cultural impact we are committed to

providing. We look forward to expanding our artistic initiatives, building

new partnerships, deepening our community engagement and continuing

to develop new audiences for generations to come.

With sincere gratitude to all of you who have been, and continue to be,

an integral part of the Geffen Playhouse.
