THEATER: REBECCA OF SUNNYBROOK FARM Adapted from novel by Kate Wiggin and directed by Paula WujekMay 6-15, 2 p.m., 7:30 p.m.Price: $6-$18
The Firehouse Arts Center will host the Civic Arts Stage Company production of Kate Wiggin’s classic story. “Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm” is of local historical interest as the original Mary Pickford silent movie, which also featured a young Milton Berle, was filmed in Pleasanton and Niles, California, in 1917. In the play, Rebecca, a very creative, sometimes unruly young girl, alternately charms and horrifies the residents of Riverboro, Maine, where she comes to stay with her kind Aunt Jane and strict Aunt Miranda. Eventually, Miranda learns to open her heart and Rebecca learns to love her aunt despite their different natures. Over the course of the bittersweet tale, the themes of the importance of a good education, valuing differences between people, and the power of family love prevail.
See page 18 for more information.

Ruckatan is a group of musicians that came together from diverse backgrounds and found a common strength.

Ruckatan Latin Tribe is composed of seven players who have all contributed to the local Latin Rock scene in the Bay Area and internationally. Members hail from three different continents and infuse their culture into Ruckatan. The band includes Carlos Elizalde on vocals, Jose Angel Amador on vocals and keys, Blaine Hoopes on keys and various woodwinds, Derek Rolando on congas and timbales, Ernesto “Matute” Lopez on drums and percussions, Ray Uribes on bass, and Ed “Loveletter” Elizalde on guitar.

Laura Ellis brings Femme Fatale, a multimedia stage show combining song, dance and vintage Film Noir clips, to the Firehouse Theater. Using her smooth, sensual voice and stage presence to play the temptress, Ellis personifies the dangerously seductive woman seen in the Hollywood crime dramas of yesteryear. Remember the dark, menacing mood, two-bit gangsters, detectives who can’t pay the rent, and women who spell trouble? Alan Paul of The Manhattan Transfer produced Ellis’ first solo album, “Here Lies Love,” featuring mesmerizing tango-like music. He calls Femme Fatale “a wonderfully entertaining theatrical experience truly worth seeing.” Come see for yourself!

We know their concert will add a new level of interest to the Firehouse.

Their music is distinguished by its ability to showcase technical brilliance with a melodic warmth that pleases the ear and satisfies the heart. Then, join Ms. Chan Valerio in welcoming the yet-to-be-identified winner of a prestigious harp competition held a few weeks prior to this performance. Treat yourself — come witness the best of the best.

THEATER
REBECCA OF SUNNYBROOK FARM HISTORICAL CONNECTION TO PLEASANTON
The Firehouse Arts Center will host the Civic Arts Stage Company production of Kate Wiggin’s classic story. “Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm” is of local historical interest as the original Mary Pickford silent movie, which also featured a young Milton Berle, was filmed in Pleasanton and Niles, California, in 1917. Mary Pickford was one of the most famous Hollywood actresses of her time, and although originally a stage actress, she made a total of 52 films in her career. Pleasanton and Niles were known as the “Hollywood of the north” because so many silent films were made here. Many of the locations seen in the movie are still on our streets today.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Kate Douglas Wiggin was born in 1856 in Philadelphia and had a sister named Nora. When she was young, her father died, and her family moved to Maine, where “Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm” takes place. Her mother remarried and Kate had a baby brother named Philip. In those days, girls rarely had formal education (meaning they did not go to school); most were just taught at home in between household chores. Kate had more schooling than most girls her age, even though it was sporadic. She did graduate, however, and became a kindergarten teacher. She loved children and loved to write. A very interesting fact is that Kate started the very first kindergarten in San Francisco! It was in 1878, and it served very poor children. Kate and her sister also started a training school for kindergarten teachers. When Kate got married in 1881, she had to stop working because that was the custom. She remained devoted to children and raised money for children’s charities by writing. It wasn’t until after her first husband died, and she was married again and living in New York City, that she wrote “Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm,” an instant success. She went back to Maine often because she had a summer home there, and she opened a library around the corner from her house. She died of pneumonia in 1923 while traveling in England. Her ashes were scattered in the Saco River in Maine.

ABOUT THE BOOKThe book was written by Kate Douglas Wiggin and published in 1903. Although our play is much shorter than the book, which is 327 pages, it contains many, although not all of the events. The book goes into much more detail and sees Rebecca through her high school years and even to her first job and romance.
Of course we always recommend that you read the book from which our plays are based, but until you get the chance (maybe this summer?) here is a fun fact: Mr. Ladd bought both Rebecca and her best friend, Emma Jane, a banquet lamp as a present and as a thank you for helping the Simpson family raise money by selling soap.
ABOUT THE PLAY“Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm” was first produced as an American play on Broadway, in New York City, in 1909. Wiggin co-wrote the play with Charlotte Thompson. Before opening on Broadway, it toured Boston and New England where it was warmly received.
