Death of a Salesman: Most Ambitious Project in History
Arthur Miller’s Death of a
Salesman is considered by many to be the most inspiring
and evocative play produced in American dramatic literature
to date. At its
opening in 1949, audience’s were moved to pray in the
aisles and would often be stunned into silence and forget to
clap for up to four minutes after the show had ended.
Salesman went on to win the Pulitzer Prize
and the Drama Critics Circle Award for best play, etching
Miller into theatre history forever.
It is with this moving piece that
the Theatre Department at St. Ambrose University has mounted
its most ambitious project ever. Reuniting its alumni and
merging them with current students and faculty, Ambrose
hopes to create a piece of unforgettable artwork filled with
invaluable experience.
The production of Death of a Salesman will open Sept. 9th
and runs thru Sept. 12th, 2004, in the Galvin
Fine Arts Center’s Allaert Auditorium.
The alumni come from all over the country.
Director Matt Speak traveled from L.A. for the chance
to direct Salesman. “When I got the call to
direct, my answer was already decided,” Speak stated
plainly. “It’s great to see a lot of our alumni who have
gone onto professional work return to make a great American
classic come to life.
SAU
is proud to have its very own Michael Kennedy playing Willy
Loman, the tragic lead that is determined to find success,
or die trying. Kennedy,
a professor in communications and theatre at SAU for the
past thirty-five years, is delighted for the opportunity to
play this complex role.
“I am looking forward to the continued challenge
and the people at work around me.”
Kennedy also offered some wisdom when approaching the
show, as well as the character of Willy Loman. “In order
to do a tragedy, you can’t go into it already destroyed.
It’s how you go into the danger and let it destroy
you, one piece at a time.
Willy Loman is almost a hero, in spite of himself.”
The production of Death of a
Salesman started as a simple thought. For the past few years, Dr. Johnson and Kris Eitrheim,
technical director and chair of the theatre department at
SAU, have tossed around the idea of doing a production
starring Kennedy in the leading role.
Kennedy commented that Dr. Johnson walked in his
office one day and set the script down on his desk and said,
“You need to play this part.”
“Hell,” thought Kennedy,
“it’s the one they want to do and Arthur Miller may very
well be my favorite American playwright, why not?”
“He said as soon as you produce
it,” added Dr. Johnson. “So I did.”
If there is any doubt that a play
from the late 1940’s lacks in the ability to connect with
a modern audience, it was quickly dispelled by Speak. “Salesman
has to do with dreams.
It is a person coming to a time in his life and
realizing that all his dreams will not come true and facing
this reality. It
is a timeless idea.”
The professionalism of graduates
and current students from over the past 40 years has been
incredible. Kennedy
boasted, “The difference between professionals and
amateurs is not money, its attitude.
Salesman has proven that what we have been
trying to do here for years works.
And that’s turn out people who put the story before
themselves.” “It
confirms what an Ambrosian in theatre becomes after leaving
the department,” added Eitrhiem. “It is a hallmark of
this program and we are blessed by the students.”
With the show days away, the
actors will take their places and the lights will come up.
After four shows, they will take their final bows and
the lights will go down.
Don’t miss this amazing opportunity to see 40 years
of St. Ambrose University’s Theatre Department at work on Death
of a Salesman.

Alumni

Name:
Erick Clark Holloway
Hometown:
LeClaire, IA
Education:
BA in Theatre from SAU, 2000
Previous Productions
Include:
Theatre - Vince in Buried
Child, Pale in Burn
This, Nelson in We
Interrupt this Program, Phillip in The
Lion in Winter, and Damis in Tartuffe.

What are you
currently working on here at SAU?
“Right now I have the opportunity to come back and
play Happy in Death of
a Salesman.”
Why did you decide to
lend your talents with us this season?
“Michael Kennedy and Dr. Corinne Johnson (SAU
Theatre Faculty).”
How long have you
been in the profession?
“Well I was a jock in high school at PV and it was
a dare that led me to the audition of Biloxi
Blues, my junior year.
I was cast as Eugene and have been doing theatre and
film ever since.”
What compels you
about theatre? “The
difference I find between film and theatre is the sort of
Zen you experience from a stage performance.
I know that I had a good performance when I barely
remember having performed. You don’t get that on camera.”
When approaching a
project, how do you begin?
“I read the play about 4 or 5 times.
Then I usually research at the library and start to
consider important facts about the character.
The one thing I stay away from is seeing the
performance done by other actors on film or stage while I am
in the middle of the process.”
What makes an artist?
“I believe a true artist is found when they reach
the middle ground between “absolute entertainment” and
“absolute art.” It’s
an accomplishment to entertain an audience and truly
enlighten them at the same time.”
What is your favorite
memory of SAU? “Whenever
I had a struggle, be it with character or personal issues, I
could walk into Dr. J’s (Dr. Corinne Johnson, theatre
professor) office and talk.
I miss the ability to be able to do that anytime of
the week.”
Favorite project?
“I have three; Directing True
West, acting in Burn
This, and acting in Buried
Child.”
Favorite quote?
“You can never step in the same stream twice.”
-Heraclites
Favorite word?
“Cigarette.”
Least Favorite word?
“Bus.”
If Heaven exists,
what would you like God to say?
“Welcome to the jungle baby!”

SUMMER
WORK SUCCESS
This summer,
students involved with the St. Ambrose Theatre Department
enthused audiences on the stage.
A few dazzled patrons in the Quad Cities, while
others stretched their acting legs at theatres around the
country.
Junior Scott Peake
ventured to Kutztown, Pennsylvania, where he performed in a
4-week production of Annie
at Blatt’s Dinner Theatre.
Peake was called about the opportunity in the second
week of May. “I
didn’t decide to take the job right away,” Peake
explained. “I
am glad I decided to go.”
He enjoyed the performances, and says, “doing a
long run lets you make up the mistakes that happen in the
beginning. It
was a lot of fun.”
Five SAU students
went north for the summer to work at Theatre L’Homme Dieu
in Alexandria, Minnesota.
While recent graduate Jessica Rairdin-Hale spent her
days managing the theatre’s box office, four others were
members of the student company. Senior Matt Erkel, Dan Rairdin-Hale (’04), Senior Daniel
Sheridan, and Junior Jenny Stodd worked building sets,
hanging lights, and working backstage when they weren’t
performing in Grease and “Alice In Wonderland.”
“The greatest part of theatre besides performing is
the people you meet,” Stodd commented.
“I learned so much just from being around other
actors from other universities.”
Sheridan claimed that “working at L’Homme Dieu
was one of the most intense processes I’ve ever been
through.” Though
the days were long, it was a great experience for them.
Senior Jodi
Leonard, Junior Dan McGinn, and Junior Sean Pankuch stayed
in the Quad Cities to perform at Quad City Music Guild.
McGinn and Pankuch suited up for the game in Damn Yankees, while McGinn joined Leonard in the ensemble of Jekyll
and Hyde. Of
her experience, Leonard says, “Jekyll
and Hyde is one of my favorite musicals, and it was
awesome to be in it and watch it come to life.”
Although she explained that the music was challenging
and the mood of the play was tricky, the play was a success.
Many other students
had the opportunity to perform and work in theatre this
summer. Recent
graduate Brian “Pitt” Strohm worked technically at
Countryside Community Theatre in Eldridge, IA on A
Chorus Line and Do Black Patent Leather Shoes Really Reflect Up?
“Pitt” is now putting in long hours as technical
director of Death of A
Salesman (which, if you haven’t heard, opens this
Thursday!) at SAU. Senior
Allison Costello had a role in A
Chorus Line, and costume shop manager Dianne Dye
designed costumes for Do
Black Patent Leather Shoes… and
A Chorus Line.
Although these St.
Ambrose students had a great time away from their own
playing field, they are excited to be back on their home
turf. Stodd claims, “I was so excited to come back and tell Kris
(Eitrheim) that I can build stuff now!”
It just goes to show how much they knew before they
even left. Congrats
to these students on all their success!
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
NO
ANTS AT THIS PICNIC
The school year and
the theatre department started with a bang on August 30th
with the annual Theatre Department Picnic held on the
Allaert Auditorium Mainstage.
The students and guests also were able to hear about
the events planned for the year at Galvin. The subscription events were announced and travel abroad
opportunities were discussed.
The directors for this year’s season also gave a
synopsis of the show they are directing and how to get
involved. One
of the more noted announcements made at the Picnic was the
arrival of a special guest to the St. Ambrose campus.
On April 8th, playwright Edward Albee will
be visiting the SAU campus for a question and answer session
along with a workshop.
The visit is sponsored by Quad City Arts and Ambrose
is working in conjunction with Augustana College on this
endeavor. The
SAU Theatre Newsletter will have more to come on this story
as the date approaches.
The SAU call board
was also elected for this upcoming year.
The call board, consisting generally of one member
from each class, serves as a liaison between the students
and the faculty. Due
to unusual circumstances, this year there will be not four,
but rather six call board members to better serve the
students. Therefore,
your 2004-2005 call board representatives are:
Senior
Class: Sue Brandt
Junior
Class: Jamie Booher and Scott Peake
Sophomore
Class: Kathryn Hale and Jacob Kendall
Freshman
Class: Sean Tweedale
There are still
plenty of opportunities to become involved in this year’s
season. If you
would like more information on how to become involved,
please contact Theatre Department Chair Kris Eitrheim at
333-6255.

ALL
ABOARD, MATEE
Composers
Gilbert and Sullivan are well known for their operettas and
this November St. Ambrose will be welcoming their work to
the stage with the production of H.M.S. Pinafore.
Operetta is a new style for St. Ambrose, but one that
the music and theatre departments are anxiously awaiting.
Dimitri Toscas from Los Angeles will be the guest
director for this operetta, and will be guided by music
director Dr. Keith Haan and assistant director Sue Brandt.
According to Haan, “operetta is a major musical
theatre genre that many Ambrose students need more
experience in. Although
it is a much different style than most musical theatre
pieces, the show is full of tongue in cheek comedy and
parody with a little melodrama thrown into the mix.”
This will surely be a show not to miss. The cast

################################################################
Players @ Dawn Awaken for another Year
As the sun
rises across the Galvin parking lot, a small group of St.
Ambrose Theatre Students head in the back door to the Studio
Theatre. Well before the first church bell sounds on campus, they wipe
their dry eyes and do some warm-up exercises before spending
the next two hours expanding their understanding of theatre.
This small group of dedicated individuals is known as
the SAU Players @ Dawn
(P@D).
P@D
is an extracurricular theatre group founded last year by
senior Daniel Sheridan and sophomore Andrew Harvey.
The intent of the small group of players is,
according to the doctrine, “to grow in the art of theatre
through experimentation with different workshops, methods
and approaches, while honing the skills necessary for a
successful and rewarding life in the arts.”
Last year, P@D spent the spring semester studying the Sanford Meisner approach
to acting through a workshop book by Larry Silverberg.
Meeting on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday from 6:45am
till 8:45am, the group came away with knowledge not offered
in traditional SAU courses.
“I learned a lot about discipline and clearing your
mind onstage,” remarked Sheridan.
“It was great to get up early with extremely
dedicated people to study theatre.”
Though the group
this year will only meet twice a week from 7:00am till
8:45am, the opportunity will far from lessen.
“The design for the workshop allows for a little
more sleep,” chuckled Harvey, P@D’s
group leader for this year.
“What we are hoping to enhance are players’
knowledge of dramatic literature and the chance to improve
the skill of cold readings.”
This semester, the
players will be reading and discussing twelve plays from the
SAU Theatre Department’s reading list (a list of plays
required to be read by all theatre majors and minors).
On the first meeting of each week, the group will
read a play out loud and then discuss the show at the
following meeting.
While the group has
already been selected for this semester, there is a chance
for late entry. Members
of the group are not required to be theatre majors or minors
to participate. People
in the community may also apply.
Applications are required and are considered by the
SAU Theatre Department’s Callboard, a group of students,
one from each class, that are elected to represent the
department in monthly meetings.
If you are interested in being a player, please
contact Andrew Harvey at (536) 322 – 1045. Deadline for late applications will be Wednesday the 8th
at noon.
“Last year I
learned to be open to others opinions and truly listen to my
peers,” added Harvey.
“Players @ Dawn is really a unique opportunity and I hope people get
on board.”

SO
LONG, FAREWELL
Two people
very devoted to the St. Ambrose Theatre Department will be
away from us this fall, only to better their knowledge of
theatre around the world.
Dr. Cory Johnson, Professor of Theatre, will be on
sabbatical this semester in Los Angeles, California, while
Junior Daniel D.P. Sheridan will study abroad in London,
England.
Dr. Johnson, who
will be leaving the week after she finishes portraying Linda
Loman in Death of a
Salesman here at SAU and returning by Christmas, is
looking forward to her trip. “I
know very little about film and TV acting,” she explained,
“and I feel that to better serve our students I should
step up to the bat and learn a bit first hand.” Dr. Johnson is hoping to “learn the ropes” of the camera
vs. the stage, and to better advise and prepare students who
desire a career in TV or film.
She will not only observe—she will be a student
herself. Dr.
Johnson is planning to take two acting classes with casting
directors, and also meet and shadow actors and agents in the
area. Don’t
worry—although Dr. Johnson’s time will be greatly
devoted to work, she plans to catch some sun by the ocean as
well!
Daniel Sheridan,
who is flying out to London on September 12th and
returning home on December 20th, has wanted to
study abroad for awhile now.
He picked London as his destination because he wanted
“the opportunity to immerse myself in a culture that has a
long history in theatre.
It’s a chance to see professional
theatre—London’s West End is a great place to take in
straight plays, both dramatic and comedic.
I learn so much from watching and find myself with
little time to do that at SAU.”
Sheridan is excited to come face to face with
London’s culture and theatre, as well as a chance to
really be on his own. He
will not only be a regular patron to the arts while in
London, but he will also be a student.
Sheridan is currently enrolled at Queen Mary
University of London, and will study “Final Year Acting
Shakespeare” and “Architecture in London”, as well as
two other undecided courses.
As far as anxiety is concerned, Sheridan is keeping
himself busy until the moment he departs.
He, like Dr. Johnson, is working on Death
of a Salesman, not as an actor, but as Assistant
Director. “If
I wasn’t working on that show, I would be really antsy,”
he confessed.
The St. Ambrose
University Theatre Department wishes a fond farewell and
safe travels to both!
