Wade event that brought former Surgeon General Dr. Joycelyn Elders to Minneapolis. Our Minnesota Valley chapter organized V-Day Prior Lake featuring two performances of The Vagina Monologues which raised thousands of dollars for a local women s shelter. Our State Conference in April was sponsored by the Fergus Falls Area NOW chapter and brought together activists and historians to discuss the immigration issues that affect small communities.

For equality, Shannon Drury Minnesota NOW President
3 When we revive a play from decades past, we benefit from what has surfaced since then. Ironically, regarding a play about political underhandedness, today's theater can draw from all kinds of ugly recent examples to get creative juices flowing. On a brighter note, we can also draw from what we've learned about gender. When State of the Union was first produced in late 1945, it was four years before such seminal feminist works as Simone De Beauvoir's The Second Sex, 17 years before Doris Lessing's The Golden Notebook, and 18 before Betty Friedan's The Feminine Mystique. Though State of the Union was written by two men, it was with a definite sympathetic eye to protagonist, Mary Matthews. Remember that feminist icon Katherine Hepburn played Mary in the 1948 film version. Indeed, Mary exemplifies a socio-political consciousness that runs wider and deeper than any of the other characters in this predominantly male play. Spike McManus comes close and her husband Grant struggles toward the light, so to speak. But then, so does Mary. However, she does so with deliberate intentionality. She's imperfect but fiercely ethical. She seems to be semiconsciously tempering her tendency toward self-righteousness. Though she has not articulated it as a realized philosophy, Mary's extraordinary depth of understanding is right there in the 1946 Pulitzer Prize-winning text by Russel Crouse and Howard Lindsay. State of the Union is set is 1945, when divorce was rare and stigmatized and courts were prone to rule against women. So it's easy to see why Mary is so outraged and trapped by Grant's infidelity. The notion of an open, non-monogamous marriage was unthinkable or obscene then. Hence, Mary soldiers on in a hailstorm of white male privilege run amok, political ambition, and self-doubt. (The notion of a black or female President would have been laughed at.) It's also the year of troops returning from World War II and women from the factory. It's the dawn of modern Suburbia. Youthful hope, idealism, and exuberance are palpable. The Best Years of Our Lives would become the movie of The old liberal guard was waning, as is reflected in the play's harsh look at ruthless union boss, John Lewis. The beloved President Franklin Roosevelt had died that spring in his unprecedented fourth term. And but four months later, Harry Truman dropped A-bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Democrats had ruled for a generation. So there was anxiety in the air as well, if not some guilt and fear for the future. State of the Union also relates to now. Grant dares to ask that both unions and business open their books, just as today there are cries for private government-funded contractors like Blackwater and Halliburton to open their books. Not to mention foreign governments that have perennially received nontransparent U.S. military aid, like Israel and Egypt. When you hear Sam Parrish's lines, consider such contemporary parallels. One of the play's most salient moments is when Mary calls the voting public itself on the carpet. Sure, you can legitimately blame politicians and media, but it's individual voters who must take government into their own hands, no matter how tired or discouraged they may be. They must learn how government works and make time and effort to educate themselves about not just a few, but many complex issues. And reach out to others openly, even if it's outside one's comfort zone. Mary calls us to transcend our mediocrity, to be bigger people than we think we are. -John Townsend DIRECTOR S NOTES SUPPORT MINNESOTA NOW!

6 AMERICAN POLITICS IN THE 1940s The play, State of the Union, opened in New York in November 1945 at a time of great excitement and change in the United States. The wars in Europe and the Pacific had ended earlier that year. Franklin Roosevelt, who had been President since 1933, died in April 1945 raising the very untested and folksy Harry Truman to the Presidency. Howard Lindsay and Russel Crouse wrote State of the Union knowing that the audience members of the day would easily understand the references, jokes, and allusions made by the political insiders and activists in the play. To help audiences of 2008 understand a few of those many references, here are a few quick summaries: William Jennings Bryan Bryan was a lawyer, congressman, and the Democratic Party candidate for President in 1896, 1900, and 1904, but lost each time. He was famous during his lifetime as a gifted speaker especially when speaking against alcohol, imperialism, and Darwinism. His Cross of Gold speech during the 1896 Democratic National Convention is often included in the list of great American speeches. Bill Green Green was president of the American Federation of Labor from 1924 to Frank Hague Hague was the Democratic mayor of Jersey City, New Jersey from 1917 to His administration had a reputation for strong political organization, but also corruption and bribery. John L. Lewis Lewis was the president of the United Mine Workers of America from 1920 to He was one of the leaders in starting the Congress of Industrial Organizations. Lewis was considered a powerful speaker and was offered (though he declined the offer) the position of Secretary of Labor in the Calvin Coolidge administration. Walter Lippmann Lippmann was a writer, columnist, and presidential advisor for much of the 20th century until his death in He helped found the New Republic Magazine and wrote the nationally syndicated newspaper column, Today and Tomorrow for the New York Herald-Tribune for decades often on political themes and opposition to Communism. His column eventually won for him two Pulitzer prizes. Phil Murray Murray was the first president of the United Steelworkers of America and the longestserving president of the Congress of Industrial Organizations. He was especially active during World War II with business and government leaders to ensure that unions helped with the increased production demands due to the war. After the war, Murray took the lead on several high profile strikes. Drew Pearson Pearson was a Washington-based investigative reporting columnist whose column Washington Merry-Go-Round" was nationally syndicated. His column took on many of the country s most powerful individuals, including General George Patton and Senator Joseph McCarthy. Westbrook Pegler Pegler was a nationally syndicated newspaper columnist for much of the first half of the 20th century. Born in Minneapolis, he moved to Chicago writing for the Tribune. In 1941, he won a Pulitzer Prize for exposing corruption in the Hollywood labor unions. Walter Reuther Reuther was a labor union leader for the United Auto Workers and later for the Congress of Industrial Organizations. He led major successful strikes for union recognition against General Motors in 1940 and Ford in (Continued on next page) STATE OF THE UNION PAGE 6 JUNE 2008
7 Harold Stassen Stassen was Governor of Minnesota from 1939 to In 1940, being viewed as a rising star in the Republican Party, he delivered the keynote address at the 1940 Republican National Convention. Stassen remained active in the Republican party for decades and ran for many political offices, including the Presidency nine times. Herbert Bayard Swope Swope was a reporter during World War I and later editor of the New York World. He was the first recipient of the Pulitzer Prize for Reporting in Wendell Wilkie Wilkie was the Republican s truly dark-horse candidate for President in Going into the June convention Robert Taft, Arthur Vandenberg, and Thomas E. Dewey were the three front runners, but none of them had enough delegates to get the nomination. Wilkie was an industrialist who had never before run for public office, but had gained national attention by his opposition to some of Roosevelt s New Deal programs which he felt were unfairly competing against private companies. At the Philadelphia convention, there erupted a sudden ground-swell of support including from Minnesota s Harold Stassen for Wilkie, who got the nomination. Wilkie, despite getting the most votes up to that time for a Republican, lost the Presidential election as Roosevelt got his third term. American Federation of Labor and Congress of Industrial Organizations The American Federation of Labor (AFL), founded in 1886, was one of the first federations of labor unions in the United States. The Congress of Industrial Organizations (CIO) started as some unions within the AFL in 1935 as the Committee for Industrial Organization whose mission was to encourage the AFL, which focused on craft-based unions, to organize unions in mass production industries. In 1938, these unions split acrimoniously from the AFL to form a separate rival organization, the CIO. The two organizations fought bitterly until they decided to come together again in 1955 as the combined AFL-CIO. America First Committee The America First Committee was an organization formed in 1940 promoting defending America and opposing entering into World War II. It was a loosely run and highly decentralized organization whose goals attracted a number of businessmen, political figures, and celebrities most notably Charles Lindberg. People active in the organization were often referred to as Isolationists or America Firsters. Book-Cadillac Hotel The Book-Cadillac Hotel, designed by architect Louis Kamper, has long been cited as one of the architectural gems in Detroit. When it opened in 1924, it was the tallest hotel in the world. The hotel fell victim to the Great Depression, changed ownership in the 1930s, and underwent several remodeling projects in hopes of keeping it profitable. Foreign Policy Association The Foreign Policy Association (FPA) is an organization founded in 1923 and is dedicated to inspiring the American public to learn more about the world.. In the 1940s, the FPA begin a series of talks and speeches broadcast over the radio on topics of international affairs. Hatch Act of 1939 The Hatch Act, named for its chief sponsor Senator Carl Hatch of New Mexico, primarily focused on restricting the political activities of Federal employees. The Act was passed to address allegations that Federal employees had misused Works Progress Administration funds during election seasons during the 1930s. An 1940 amendment to the Act set an annual ceiling of $3 million for political parties' campaign expenditures and $5,000 for individual campaign contributions. Information Please Information Please was a radio quiz show that was broadcast from 1938 to On the show listeners would submit questions to be answered by a panel of celebrities. If the panel was stumped, the listener would win money. One frequent panelist was John Kieran, a sports writer for the New York Times, who was noted for his wit and extensive knowledge in many subject areas. Taft-Hartley Act The legislative act, named for its sponsors, Senator Robert Taft and Representative Fred A. Hartley, Jr., and passed in 1947, greatly restricted the activities of labor unions. The act restricted union strikes and added a list of unfair labor practices on the part of unions. The bill was passed in the environment of a large number of long labor strikes in the 1940s.

Most recently, he and his son Jack performed together in the IHM-St. Luke's production of Beauty and the Beast. Stuart is chair of the St. Paul DFL, which has made the role of Grant Matthews particularly challenging.

Previously, she has appeared in three Lex-Ham productions, as a narrator in Beakers, as Maria in The Memorandum and as Anna Paulanski in There's Talk in Town.

Jennifer would like to thank John Munger for sharing his wisdom in dance, director John Townsend for his generous spirit, infinite knowledge and patience, and her husband for helping her conduct hands-on research on the many drinks mentioned in State of the Union. Frank Blomgren (James Conover) This is the fourth time around at Lex-Ham for Frank, as he circles the bases. He has also appeared with Lakeshore Players, Heritage, Corcoran Park, The Chameleon Theatre Circle, and Sweet Charities. Special thanks to the ever gracious Jen for putting up with his back-to-back shows, and to his daughter, Vanessa, the die hard Democrat for putting up with his Republican characters of late.
