Buffalo, NY – University at Buffalo Department of Theatre and Dance presents Everybody, a finalist for the 2018 Pulitzer Prize in Drama, by Branden Jacobs-Jenkins. The show is directed by Assistant Professor Lindsay Brandon Hunter, Director of Undergraduate Studies and Director, BA in Theatre. Public performances will take place at UB Center for the Arts Black Box Theatre on UB’s North Campus on April 1 – 5, 2020.

Everybody was first produced off-Broadway by Signature Theatre, opening in February 2017. It is a contemporary take on one of the oldest plays in the English language, the 15th-century morality play Everyman.

In the original off-Broadway production, many of the roles were cast at random each night via a playful on-stage lottery. Although UB’s production will forgo this aspect, its spirit still informs the work. “The playwright makes clear that Everybody should be cast with a diverse group of performers, demonstrating the inclusivity its name implies,” offers Hunter. “Where the original play centered the experience of a white, Anglo man as universal, this contemporary work is a comedic, heartfelt exploration of morality that welcomes all kinds of players.”

The lead character is an individual – Everybody – who is called by Death to her final resting place. Everybody protests what she perceives as her random and unfair imminent demise. The 12-person student cast also includes allegorical figures like Friendship, Love, Beauty, Courtship, Kinship, Mind, and Stuff, representing material goods. A philosophically puzzled God is accompanied by Death. Time and Love round out the cast.

UB Theatre and Dance junior Emory Redfearn portrays Death. “Death is God’s assistant, but doesn’t quite know the answers to everything,” she explains. “My job is just to get them (Everybody) from point A to point B.”

“It’s both comedic and serious. All of us are playing ideas, not exactly people. The character Everybody is going around trying to find someone to bring with them to Death,” so as not to be alone when it occurs.

“It’s a journey. (Everybody is) grapsing at straws for something to save them,” Redfearn says. “But my idea of Death is very matter of fact. It’s not a scary or sad thing. It just happens.”

Ah, but how will Death appear? “I’m friends with the costume designer. I heard that I might have a sparkly cape!” says Redfearn excitedly.

Branden Jacobs-Jenkins is an American playwright born in 1984. He won the 2014 Obie Award for Best New American Play for his plays Appropriate and An Octoroon. His play Gloria was a finalist for the 2016 Pulitzer Prize for Drama, a year in which he was also was named a MacArthur Fellow.

“It’s a journey. (Everybody is) grapsing at straws for something to save them,” Redfearn says. “But my idea of Death is very matter of fact. It’s not a scary or sad thing. It just happens.”

Ah, but how will Death appear? “I’m friends with the costume designer. I heard that I might have a sparkly cape!” says Redfearn excitedly.

Buffalo, NY – University at Buffalo Department of Theatre and Dance presents Everybody, a finalist for the 2018 Pulitzer Prize in Drama, by Branden Jacobs-Jenkins. The show is directed by Assistant Professor Lindsay Brandon Hunter, Director of Undergraduate Studies and Director, BA in Theatre. Public performances will take place at UB Center for the Arts Black Box Theatre on UB’s North Campus on April 1 – 5, 2020.

Everybody was first produced off-Broadway by Signature Theatre, opening in February 2017. It is a contemporary take on one of the oldest plays in the English language, the 15th-century morality play Everyman.

In the original off-Broadway production, many of the roles were cast at random each night via a playful on-stage lottery. Although UB’s production will forgo this aspect, its spirit still informs the work. “The playwright makes clear that Everybody should be cast with a diverse group of performers, demonstrating the inclusivity its name implies,” offers Hunter. “Where the original play centered the experience of a white, Anglo man as universal, this contemporary work is a comedic, heartfelt exploration of morality that welcomes all kinds of players.”

The lead character is an individual – Everybody – who is called by Death to her final resting place. Everybody protests what she perceives as her random and unfair imminent demise. The 12-person student cast also includes allegorical figures like Friendship, Love, Beauty, Courtship, Kinship, Mind, and Stuff, representing material goods. A philosophically puzzled God is accompanied by Death. Time and Love round out the cast.

UB Theatre and Dance junior Emory Redfearn portrays Death. “Death is God’s assistant, but doesn’t quite know the answers to everything,” she explains. “My job is just to get them (Everybody) from point A to point B.”

“It’s both comedic and serious. All of us are playing ideas, not exactly people. The character Everybody is going around trying to find someone to bring with them to Death,” so as not to be alone when it occurs.

“It’s a journey. (Everybody is) grapsing at straws for something to save them,” Redfearn says. “But my idea of Death is very matter of fact. It’s not a scary or sad thing. It just happens.”

Ah, but how will Death appear? “I’m friends with the costume designer. I heard that I might have a sparkly cape!” says Redfearn excitedly.

Book: Talking to Strangers: What We Should Know about the People We Don’t Know, by Malcolm Gladwell

Discussed by: Robert Delprino Ph.D.- Professor and Assistant Dean for the School of Natural and Social Sciences, SUNY Buffalo State College

Book Summary: How did Fidel Castro fool the CIA for a generation? Why did Neville Chamberlain think he could trust Adolf Hitler? Why are campus sexual assaults on the rise? Do television sitcoms teach us something about the way we relate to each other that isn’t true?

While tackling these questions, Malcolm Gladwell was not solely writing a book for the page. He was also producing for the ear. In the audiobook version of Talking to Strangers, you’ll hear the voices of people he interviewed–scientists, criminologists, military psychologists. Court transcripts are brought to life with re-enactments. You actually hear the contentious arrest of Sandra Bland by the side of the road in Texas. As Gladwell revisits the deceptions of Bernie Madoff, the trial of Amanda Knox, and the suicide of Sylvia Plath, you hear directly from many of the players in these real-life tragedies. There’s even a theme song – Janelle Monae’s “Hell You Talmbout.”

Something is very wrong, Gladwell argues, with the tools and strategies we use to make sense of people we don’t know. And because we don’t know how to talk to strangers, we are inviting conflict and misunderstanding in ways that have a profound effect on our lives and our world
