Band and Orchestra, 80 Pieces Chorus, 1000 Actors and Dancers, 2500 FOREWORD BLL OVER the United States, not to speak of countries across the seas, there is observance of the three hun- dredth anniversary of the year when Shakespeare laid down his pen — his work completed. It means little to the immortal and world-circling fame of the poet-dramatist that one more city is added to the list of those that pay him homage. But it means much to that city. When a whole community joins together to celebrate the genius of one whose children of fancy have become more widely known, more loved, more honored, more immortal, than even the great among the physical children of men, then is the un- seen put above the seen, the spiritual above the material, and the city is become richer in the riches that do not rust or melt away. Behind the children of the dreams, however, is he who dreamed. It is the dreamer himself whom Rochester honors most in its first dramatic Pageant. Most delicately, lovingly, and truthfully has Miss Eager, as Pageant Master, unfolded in the succeeding scenes the personality of Shakespeare. They who would find the key to the Rochester Pageant must observe its depiction, not only of the extent of Shakespeare's fame, but of the developing spirit of Shakespeare, the man — a human being like themselves. He, with his wise smile, would have said, One touch of nature makes the whole world kin, if we can think of him as looking over the gay multitude of our players and spectators. It is the triumph of our Rochester Pageant that, for the moment, it makes us the kin of Shake- speare ! C. M. R. HON. HIRAM H.

Southworth Rachel Taylor Lillian Wangman Dorothy Wellington Clare Wiley What the Pageant Means for Rochester i^vHE Rochester Shakespeare Pageant is a community enter- ^^^ prise that seeks through the medium of a great Com- munity Drama to accomplish several results that are essential to our highest civic development. It aims in the first place to bring the people of Rochester into the closest touch with the life, the personality and the works of the world's greatest dramatist in an attractive out-of- doors environment. It expects thereby to make the plays of Shakespeare a more actual and permanent part of our national culture. It seeks to pay to the memory of the poet the deserved tribute of a united city and to make an ineffaceable impression upon the imagination of the community. It aims in the second place to give to the people of Roches- ter their first introduction to one of the greatest dramatic move- ments in the world, community drama, a drama which the people themselves prepare, present and witness ; a drama where the people are the cast, the hero and the audience all in one, the life of the people expressing itself consciously and dramatically. It aims finally to bring into actual co-operation thousands of citizens representative of every activity in our city life and to center their efforts and interests upon one object. An un- equaled medium is thus created for developing a conscious solidarity throughout the whole community and providing it with a means for expressing itself effectively in song, dance, color and dramatic action. No community problem is to-day more pressing than the fostering of national unity and no solution is more efficacious than for the people to work together in some great community enterprise. M. D. G. 19 William Shakespeare was Born April 23, 1 564 at Stratford- on- Avon. In his 1 8th year he Married Anne Hathaway, of Shottery. At the age of 22 He betook himself to London The story runs that he had been on a nocturnal poaching expedition in the deer park of Sir Thomas Lucy ; that the keep- ers caught him and locked him up for the night; that, to get even, he amused himself by writing "a bitter ballad 1 ' in which he satirized Sir Thomas, and that the circulation of this ballad was the cause of his flight to London. At London, tradition goes, he first supported himself by holding the horses of the gentry at the theater door. Then he was permitted to perform some trivial task behind the scenes. Within five years of his arrival in the city he had attained to a great reputation. The later years of Shakespeare } s life were spent again in Stratford. There he died, April 23, 1616, on his fifty-third birthday, and was buried in the parish house. His work never died. 20 Book of the Pageant The Rochester Shakespeare Pageant Overture ... A Midsummer Night's Dream Chorus . . . . . . . Shakespeare Words by John R. Slater Music by Heinrich Jacobsen Prelude The Forest of Arden "Where Fancy Dwells." The green is set with trees. In the background a low hill rises and a winding path crosses a bridge which spans a narrow stream and leads up and over the hill. At the left of the green is a low tree in blossom. At the close of the vocal overture a call is heard and Spring- trips lightly over the hill scattering blossoms as she comes. She calls to the Water Nymphs who glide gracefully about bringing the flowers to life. She calls to the Wood Nymphs whose light touch turns the grass to a deeper green, and then to the Tree Sprites who run over the hill touching the low trees with their wands of green. The nymphs and sprites disport themselves and then gather about Spring as she throws herself upon a mossy bank. The Spirit of Vision appears, calling to Shakespeare, who follows her upon the green. Crossing to the low tree at the left he seats himself under its spreading branches and falls into a reverie. The chorus sings — "Hark ! hark ! the lark ! At heavens gate sings, And Phoebus gins arise His steeds to water at those springs On chaliced flowers that lies." while Vision calls to life the little creatures of his Fancy who people the forest. As the fairy music from Midsummer Night's Dream is played Fancy enters dancing gracefully, and Puck, Titania, Oberon and Fairies come through the trees and group upon the green. The golden fairies (good fairies) form a ring about Shake- speare seated upon the grass while they weave a wreath of wild flowers for his head. Puck throws himself upon the ground near the front of the green watching Shakespeare intently. Puck — ''There's nothing either good or bad, but thinking makes it so." 23 Puck runs lightly to the low tree and swings himself on to the branches, over Shakespeare's head, as Ariel glides through the air on the back of a bat and lands in the center of a large, crocus. As he swings back and forth he sings — "Where the Bee Sucks." while all the creatures of Fancy disport themselves. At the close of the song weird music is heard and all exit except Puck and Ariel. The green is flooded with a purple light and Witches lift a huge caldron over a fire and Imps and Beasts caper about it and Snakes curl themselves around the Imps. Puck throws a handful of dust into the pot and Ariel dances back and forth in the weird light. Imps sing — "Ye spotted snakes with double tongue, Thorny hedgehogs, be not seen, Newts and blind worms do no wrong, Come not near our fairy queen. Weaving spiders come not here, Hence, you long legged spinners, hence ! Beetles black, approach not near, Worm nor snail do no offence." Episode I At the finish of the song a hunter's horn is heard and the Witches, Beasts and Imps gather near Shakespeare, who rises as though awakening from a dream. A deer runs across the green followed by a group of villagers. Shakespeare siezes his bow and sends an arrow toward the deer, while the Imps caper about in glee and a band of Foresters crossing over the hill sing — "What shall he have that killed the deer?" The music changes to a stirring hunter's motif and Consta- bles and Game Keepers enter quickly while Sir Thomas Lucy and Hunters ride upon the green. Witches, Imps, etc., exit and Shakespeare is arrested by the Constable for shooting a deer belonging to Sir Thomas Lucy. Sir Thomas in pantomime con- vinces Shakespeare that it will be well for him to leave Strat- ford for a time because of his deer poaching proclivities and his fondness for writing satirical verses on his (Sir Thomas) gatepost. 24 The Game Keepers, Constables and Villagers leave the green, while Sir Thomas Lucy and his friends ride off through the trees. Puck (looking after them) — "What fools these mor- tals be !" Shakespeare seats himself disconsolately upon the ground. The Good Fairies gather about him and Vision approaches. Pointing upward and onward she awakens him to see golden possibilities for the future, and rising, Shakespeare turns in the direction toward which Vision points and follows the golden Fairies from the green while Ariel mounts his bat and flies off over the tree tops and the forest Nymphs disport themselves and then run lightly over the hill. Puck — "Fll put a girdle round the earth in forty seconds." Exit Puck. Interlude I Elizabethan Revels Scene: The green is set with trees as in the Prelude. Poles with flying streamers and pennants are placed at intervals about the green. An octagonal building representing the Theater stands at the right. As the choral music ceases, Heralds on horseback enter, followed by groups of Revelers, Fools, Tumblers, Morris Dancers, Rustic Dancers, Wheelwrights, Carpenters, Black- smiths, Hobby Horse Riders, Milkmaids and Shepherds in pro- cession. The Morris Dance. The Hobby Horse Group. The Shepherd Dance. Fools and Tumblers. Country Dance. Milkmaids. Maypole Dance. The Wheelwrights. The Rustic Players. A Herald announces the play and the group of players gather about the green. 25 Gregory (a jester) — "A joke! a joke! I've a merry joke to tell thee. Phylis — "We've heard thy witinesses." Phoebe — "Many and many a time have we heard them." Peggy — "Thy jokes are wrinkled with age." Gregory — "And so shalt thou be and then shall the fool laugh at thee." Peggy — "But none shall laugh with thee thou poor, sad fool." All— "A poor, sad fool, Go pull a long face with the parson's wife, Go sharpen your wits on the carving knife, Did you ever see such a fool in your life? A poor, sad fool !" All the women dance about him and then run to the back of the green. Gregory (seating himself upon the ground) — "Ah! sad fool thou art poor Gregory ! Yon magpies have more wit in their chatter than I can find in a whole day's seeking ! Natural wit saith" — Peggy approaches. Gregory — "Ah ! good morrow, Mistress Peggy, thou art a queen indeed, the queen of my heart." Peggy — "Out upon thee ! I'll have none of thee !" Gregory — "Ah ! Mistress ! thou know'st that I love thee and if thou say me nay I'll e'en join the great players in the play house yonder !" Peggy — "Out upon thee ! Get thee to the Buffoons and if thou come'st back with hair upon thy head why then" — Gregory — "When then?" — Peggy — "Thou may'st have the combing of it !" Gregory — "And thou the pulling of it. Promise me that, Mistress." Peggy — "I'll give thee a token." Old song — "Come Lasses and Lads" (with dance in which all the revelers join). Some of the revelers exit. Episode II Sheakespeare's Arrival in London. Scene: Same as Interlude I. Burbage and his friends enter from the theater as Shake- speare rides in on horseback. Shakespeare dismounts and sells his horse to one of the Buffoons. He crosses the green and Burbage engages him to take care of the horses that the patrons of the theater ride in upon. Groups of people enter on foot and on horseback. A trumpeter announces that the play is about to begin and the people enter the playhouse. Most of the revelers leave the green and Shakespeare stands watching the vanishing crowd. Shakespeare — "All the world's a stage and all the men and women merely players. They have their exits and their en- trances and each man in his turn plays many parts." A musical call interrupts the soliloquy and Vision comes softly through the trees. Touching Shakespeare upon the shoul- der she points to the creatures of his fancy who dance lightly toward him, Puck, Ariel, Titania, Oberon and the Fairies. Shakespeare starts toward them but turns at the touch of Vision and faces the theater where Tragedy and Comedy stand beckoning to him from the doorway. Vision leads him toward them and he enters the theater. Exit all but Puck. Singers cross the green singing a good night song. NOTE : When Shakespeare went to London about the year 158(5 there were but two play houses in existence. One called The Theater and the other The Curtain. The first was at Shorditeh near the famous Pleasure Grounds on the outskirts of London. The Theater was owned by James Burbage who belonged to the Earl of Leicester's players. Burbage combined the activities of Inn keeper, livery man and actor with those of theatrical manager, and it is thought, made each of these helpful to the others. It was doubtless at this theater that Shakespeare was engaged to hold the horses of the gentry who rode out from London to the play house. Shakespeare may also have sold the horse upon which he rode to London, to Burbage the livery man. This tradition that he was first a stableman then a scene shifter is a very plausible one, as it is known that Shakes- peare became acquainted with Burbage and also with the theater very soon after his arrival in London. During the reign of Queen Elizabeth, pageants, processions, revels, and dances were a popular form of amusement. These were held some- times upon the streets, sometimes in inn-yards, but more often upon the pleasure grounds on the outskirts of the toAvn. 27 Interlude II Classical Poetry Driven Out by Romanticism. Scene: Same as Interlude I. A procession of Greeks enter bearing baskets of fruit and flowers. A group of young girls with cymbals and tambourines skip across the green, followed by youths drawing a chariot in which Classical Poetry is seated. The procession halts before the theater and offerings are laid at the feet of the Spirit of Drama who comes forward from the doorway. Class- ical Poetry steps from the chariot and begins to dance while Greek maidens come from many directions and glide forward and backward in graceful lines and finally follow her as she seats herself at the feet of the Spirit of Drama. Boats in which rustic lovers are seated are poled along the stream at the back of the green. They sing — It was a lover and his lass. while young Venetian men enter with guitars, each calling to his lady love, who joins him and all gather about Romanticism, who dances with them to the feet of Drama. As they approach her the Classical group move to the back of the green and Romanticism follows and drives them off through the various entrances until they disappear from sight. Romanticism returns to the feet of Drama and the rustic lovers come forward singing. As they sing Shakespeare's lovers, led by Vision, cross the green. Shakespeare watches them from the doorway of the theater. A weird call is heard and the stage is bathed in a purple Hght as Tragedy beckons to the Romanticism group, who follow her slowly and solemnly into the theater. At this point the Spirit of Comedy enters driving a crowd of his followers in cap and bells upon the green. They dance a merry dance while he laughing throws himself at the feet of the Spirit of Drama. At the close of the dance Drama leads them into the the- ater. 28 Episode III Shakespeare and His Friends Attend a Performance of Henry V. An Elizabethan Audience. Scene: Background of foliage. Falcon Tavern on the left of the green. Benches for the audience on the right. Heralds enter and pages plant standards on either side of the green. Groups of people come from the Tavern and seat them- selves upon the benches while Sedan chairs in which grand ladies are seated are carried in by lackeys. The ladies are as- sisted to alight by courtiers who lead them to their seats and with trumpet calls and mounted escort the Earl and Countess of Leicester ride upon the scene. As they take their places Shakespeare and his friends come from the tavern and seat themselves about the table near the porch. Shakespeare rises and speaks the opening lines of the play. Shakespeare — "O for a muse of fire that would ascend The brightest heaven of invention A kingdom for a stage, princes to act And monarchs to behold the swelling scene. Then should the warlike Henry like himself Assume the part of Mars and at his heels Leashed like hounds should famine, sword and fire Crouch for employment. * * * Piece out our imperfections with your thoughts Into a thousand parts divide one man And make imaginary puissance For its your thoughts that now must deck our kings, Carry them here and there, jumping o'er times Turning the accomplishment of many years Into an hour glass ; for which supply Admit me to this history Who, prologue like, your humble patience pray Gently to hear, kindly to judge our play." The play of Henry V. Act III. Scene I. Alarms are sounded. Enter King Henry, Exeter, Bedford, Gloucester and soldiers. (The entire scene is given.) Act V. of Henry V. Latter part of Scene II. Peace between France and England. The Betrothal of King Henry and Katherine. 29 Enter the French King and Queen, Burgundy, Gloucester, Bedford, Exeter, Westmoreland and other lords. At the close of the scene all the players exit. Full chorus sings "O, by Rivers." Shakespeare and his friends mingle with the audience. Some of the people enter the tavern. A group of Courtiers dance a Pavane in the center of the green and another group sings Ben Johnson's ballad, "Drink to me only with thine eyes," followed by applause from those upon the green. All go off through the several entrances. During the reign of Elizabeth, plays were sometimes given in the inns, but more often in the Inn yards. Episode IV Shakespeare at Stratford. The Wedding of Robert Harvard* to Katherine Rogers Scene : A street in Stratford. Porch of the church on the right. Chorus of women sing— "Come unto these yellow sands." A group of villagers cross the green. Chimes are heard and the wedding procession comes from the church. Shakespeare with his daughters, Susannah and Judith, leave the company and advance to the front of the green, watch- ing the bride and groom as they mount their horses. As they ride away the group of people go off in different directions leaving Shakespeare and his daughters upon the green. The symbolic figure of Time approaches through the trees. Shakespeare, soliloquizing — "Devouring Time, blunt thou the lion's paws, And make the earth devour her own sweet brood Pluck the keen teeth from the fierce tiger's jaws, And burn the long-lived phoenix in her blood Make glad and sorry seasons, as thou fleet'st And do whate'er thou wilt, swift footed Time, But I forbid thee one most heinous crime O carve not with thy hours my lov's fair brow, Nor draw no lines there with thine antique pen Him in thy course untainted do allow, For beauty's pattern to succeeding men." * Robert Harvard, a friend of Shakespeare, was the father of John Harvard, the founder of Harvard College. Judith and Susannah run lightly across the green and dis- appear among the trees. Shakespeare, continuing his solilo- quy as he leans upon an old sun dial — "Yet do thy worst, old Time : Despite thy wrong My love shall in my verse ever live long." As Time approaches Shakespeare, Vision steps before him and stops his progress. The green is enveloped in darkness for a moment, then a single white light discloses the figure of Im- mortality. Vision leads Immortality towards Shakespeare and all the beloved characters of his plays come from many direc- tions and gather about him. As they group at the back of the green, large screens of evergreen close together, shutting them from view. Interlude III The Dramatic Events in Our Own Country from 1620 to 1776 Interlude III— A The Pilgrims in Ameraca Historical Note Soon after the death of Shakespeare the Pilgrim Fathers set sail from Southampton for the provinces. They landed in Plymouth Bay and founded their little colony there. The first winter was a trying one for them and they endured many hardships. There was also great fear of Indian attacks. Indians cross the green, skulking through the trees and hiding from sight behind bushes. The Pilgrims come from the back of the green, gazing about as though in some fear. The men carry guns and the women hymn books. They are on their way to meeting. As the little procession crosses the green the chorus sings "The Same Tides Flow." Interlude III-B The Beginning of the War for Independence. The Midnight Ride of Paul Revere. Historical Note On the 19th of April, General Gag^ dispatched eight hun- dred men to sieze the stores which the provincials had gathered at Concord and there followed an instant rising of the country. 31 Riders had sped through the country side during the long night which preceded this movement to give warning. Fore- most among them was Paul Revere, who crossed the Charles River and waited for a signal light to appear in the tower of the Old North Church, which would announce the departure of the troops from Boston. On, on sped the intrepid rider from town to town and "be- fore the troops could finish their errand armed men beset them at almost every turn of the run, firing upon them from hedge, fence, corner and village street as if they were outlaws running the gauntlet." The return of the British to Boston quickened to a verita- ble rout and they left many of their comrades dead, wounded or prisoners behind them ere they reached the cover of their lines again. Scene: Same as Interlude III-A. A boat is paddled across the stream at the back of the green and Paul Revere steps from it upon the bank. As a light is seen high up against the sky he runs quickly toward a group of trees and returns on horseback. Leaning forward in the saddle the rider urges his horse across the green calling as he goes, "To arms ! to arms ! !" Armed men appear from many directions. They hide behind the bushes and as the British soldiers cross the green, fire into their midst. Upon reaching the bridge on the opposite side the British are met with such a volley that they are forced to turn back and recross the green in disorder. The villagers follow them, firing through the trees as they go until all disappear. Interlude III— C Benedict Arnold's Mad Dash Which Brought the Battle of Saratoga to a Finish and Led to the Surrender of Burgoyne. Historical Note Arnold, who had been told by Gates that he must not enter the battle, broke through all restraint and rode headlong into the thick of the fight. Here and there he rode, encouraging the men, until in the supreme moment he led Learned's brigade in a desperate assault on the great redoubt on Breyman's hill. The 32 redoubt was won and rased, and the whole British camp was open to the Americans. Scene: Same as Interlude III-A. As the firing of guns is heard groups of horsemen ride in from many directions and a single horseman dashes upon the scene calling them quickly about him. He gives a few hurried directions and continues his dash across the green while all follow him. Interlude III-D The Surrender of Burgoyne October 17, 1777. Historical Note Burgoyne, all hope lost, as the American militia had been pouring in from all sides since the battle at Saratoga, decided to surrender. Terms were agreed upon and on the morning of October 17th the British army left its camp. It proceeded toward the American camp, Burgoyne and his officers riding ahead. Gates received them with courtesy and introduced his leading officers. The British and their Indian allies, having reluctantly thrown down their arms, passed between the lines of the American army drawn up on either side of the road. The American flag for the first time unfurled at any military engagement, was carried at the head of the British column. The pipers played Yankee Doodle. In the presence of both armies Burgoyne surrendered his sword to Gates and a day famous in the annals of American history was closed. Scene: Same as Interlude III-A. The action of the scene follows closely the historical note. The Entrance of the United States. At the close of the surrender, while the two armies are drawn up on either side of the green, the symbolic figure of the United States appears upon an elevation in the center with the Army on one side and the Navy upon the other. The entire audience and chorus sing " Columbia the Gem of the Ocean." 33 Episode V The Drama in the United States. A performance of the "Contrast," written by Royall Tyler. The first play produced in this country written by an American given at the John Street Theater, New York City, in 1787. Scene: General background the same as in Interlude III. Large screens of evergreens are withdrawn to show the stage of the John Street Theater. Men and women in Colonial dress enter from the sides and chat in groups while pages place benches in rows along the green facing the screens.

At the close of the dance all gather at the left of the green. The Finale . 1 1 1 All People of the Past and Present Pay Tribute to the Great Genius of Shakespeare. Ili'lfll 'M ': ■ I ■ !. .11 «.!<<' ■ Out from the various entrances come groups of people representing every nation and clime during the past three cen- turies. These encircle the green, each pausing a moment as they reach the center where, upon an elevation, all the charac- ters of Shakespeare's plays are gathered. As the procession forms into one great semi-circle the characters come forward, led by the Midsummer Night Group of Fairies, who, after dancing to the front of the green, pause to listen. A call is heard and The Spirit of Vision comes slowly down the center, pointing to the figure of Shakespeare standing upon the elevation with Immortality by his side. The entire cast, chorus and audience sing "The Ode to Shakespeare." At the sound of a stirring trumpet call the United States rides down through the center, followed by the army of the past and present, while the music changes to "The Star Span- gled Banner." Pointing onward and upward Vision leads the entire com- pany from the green. 35 "1616-1916" FAREWELL, Shakespeare ! You have winged your way into the starry firmament, like the leader of a seraphic host, attended by the immortal creatures of your compelling- dream — great conquerors and glorious queens, proud lords and lovely ladies, the long line of England's kings, Romeo and sweet Juliet with interlocking wings, demure Viola and arch Rosalind with Beatrice, the passionate misguided Moor and spotless Desdemona, the heart-broken Prince of Denmark, Lear with the lightning in his eyes, fierce Macbeth and his fiercer lady with the blood-stained hands, the various Egyptian queens, Cordelia and Imogen and Perdita, Coriolanus and Caesar, and the wise Prospero. You and your aspiring retinue old London can not hold, nor England, "set in the silver sea." In your strong flight you pass all bounds of time and place, all lands, all seas, all alien tongues and peoples. Europe and the two x^mericas bow to your right divine. Over battlefields and fallen empires you and your deathless company pass unscathed. You circle the earth like sunlight and the free air, and all the world is full of your glory. For the moment the groans and tears of war have been forgotten. We have seen you, above the smoke-drift and the cloud-drift, in the serene cloudless ether, shining as a ship of stars, with still planetary motion, steer your clear course for eternity. We follow your flight. We lift our hearts and voices in salutation. The vision that led you shall lead us also. Through your magic the fancies of us all take wing !' — Adapted from "Shakespeare: 1616-1916," by Stuart P. Sherman. 36 Shakespeare the Immortal Written for the Tercentenary Pageant by John R. Slater To an Air from Beethoven's Ninth Symphony Voice of silent generations, Light and eyes for all the blind, Well belov'd of many nations, Guide and helper of mankind, Shakespeare, in thy year we hail thee, Poet, prophet, singer, friend, Never shall our music fail thee, Never shall thy music end. Thou hast fathomed all our dreaming, Thou hast read the hearts of kings. In thy world, tho' evil seeming, "Always, ever, something sings." Shakespeare, heart of youth aspiring, Heart of peace within all war ; Heart of love in music choiring, Heart of joy forever more. We, the people, vast and groping, We, the toilers, bond and free, We, the seekers, fearing, hoping, Lift our hearts to hearts like thee. We, the actors, raise our chorus To the master of the play. Thro' the future dawns before us Shakespeare's everlasting day. The audience is requested to join the chorus and cast in singing the ode. 37 The Cast Characters in the Prelude and Episode I Spring .
