by Michael Friedman and Alan Timbers
directed by Matthew Byron Cassi

November 8 - December 1, 2013
Tickets at www.woodlawntheatre.org or by calling the box office at 210-267-8388. Show times are Friday and Saturday at 8 pm and Sundays 2:30 pm. Tickets cost $15 - $23 with discounts for students, military and SATCO members

History gets all sexy punk in this alternate universe with parallels to today's political landscape in Bloody Bloody Andrew Jackson, which opens November 8 in the Woodlawn Theatre’s Black Box. The show runs through December 1.

Directed by Matthew Byron Cassi with musical direction by Jaime Ramirez of Bombasta, Bloody Bloody Andrew Jackson tells the story of America's first political maverick (played by San Antonio’s award-winning actor Anthony Cortino) who kicked British butt, shafted the Indians and smacked down the Spaniards all in the name of these United States – who cares if he didn't have permission? An exhilarating and white-knuckled look at one of our nation's founding rock stars, the show recreates and reinvents the life of "Old Hickory," from his humble beginnings on the Tennessee frontier to his days as Commander-in-Chief. It also asks the question: Is wanting to have a beer with someone reason enough to elect him? What if he's really, really hot?

The Woodlawn Theatre is San Antonio’s historic community theatre, located in the heart of the Deco District at 1920 Fredericksburg Road, just south of Hildebrand. Free parking with security patrol is available.

Interview with Matthew Cassi, Director of Bloody Bloody Andrew Jackson at the Woodlawn Theatre, San Antonio, Playing November 8 - Dember 1, 2013

Interview with Matthew Cassi, director of Bloody Bloody Andrew Jackson

by Hannah Wood October 30, 2013

Recently, I had the privilege of interviewing Matthew Cassi, director of Bloody Bloody Andrew Jackson. It’s coming out November 8th in the Black Box and it sounds like tons of fun. You know how people tend to get really bright-eyed and excited when you ask them about something they like to talk about? That’s Matthew Cassi personified. Thus, he was an extremely fun person to interview.

HW: How long have you been working here at the Woodlawn?

MC: This is the second production that I have directed. Last season, I directed a play called Eurydice here in this small Black Box space as well. I’ve worked with Greg Hinojosa, the artistic director of the Woodlawn a few times at other theatres, so we’ve had a working relationship for four or five years. But this’ll be my second production here at the Woodlawn.

HW: What is Bloody Bloody Andrew Jackson about to you?

MC: Bloody Bloody Andrew Jackson is an comedic, punk rock view into politics of the 19th century, including the eradication of the Native Americans. It looks at the president like a celebrity and it looks at him – you know today’s perspective of how we look at celebrities and how celebrities act? It looks at the presidency of the seventh president from that perspective and reveals things that correlate it to today, politically and socially as well.

HW: How does this show measure up to others that you’ve directed? Is it more difficult or less difficult? Why? And why do you think so?

MC: I’m kind of known, and I say that unpretentiously – if there’s a way – I’m kind of known for directing comedies and dramas. [. . .] I’m originally from Seattle and I’ve been here about seven years. I went to school in Seattle and worked as an actor and director for several years before I went here. So, in this town, I’m more known for farces and over-the-top comedies and dramatic plays. People don’t know me as a director of musical theatre. It can be pretty challenging. I wouldn’t say it’s any more challenging than any other production I’ve directed. Every production has some challenges. Comedies are hard, dramas are hard, musicals are just as hard. 

Some of the elements in this show are harder because I have 13 cast members and each of them has about five or six different characters they play. So, multiply 13 by five or six and that’s the number of costume pieces that I have to coordinate with props and all of that. That can be pretty complicated. So, some of the elements in this production consume more time for me as a director and for the actors as well. 

It can get pretty tiring and cumbersome. But, I don’t look at my productions as harder than the rest. I look at every one as just as challenging as the last. And, the way I approach things, I don’t want to do things I can do in my sleep. I want to be challenged and this is just as challenging as the last four or five that I’ve done. With each show, I have to examine the complexities of it and set a game plan. I do a lot of preparation and research even before I get into the rehearsals for a production. And that’s just me. For me, I look at every production from the same lens. And I just have to adjust accordingly based on the complexities or requirements of the things within the show. . . . Does that make sense?

IT’S ALIVE! From the creators of the record-breaking Broadway sensation The Producers comes this monster new musical comedy.

A wickedly inspired re-imagining of the Frankenstein legend based on Mel Brooks’ classic comedy masterpiece, the story follows bright young Dr. Frankenstein (that’s Fronkensteen) as he attempts to complete his grandfather’s masterwork and bring a corpse to life. Together with his oddly shaped and endearing helper Igor (that’s Eye-gor), his curvaceous lab assistant Inga, and in spite of his incredibly self-involved madcap fiancé Elizabeth, Frankenstein succeeds in creating a monster — but not without scary and quite often hilarious complications.

With such memorable tunes as “The Transylvania Mania,” “He Vas My Boyfriend” and “Puttin’ On The Ritz,” The New MEL BROOKS Musical YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN is scientifically-proven, monstrously good entertainment…and the only place you’ll witness a singing and dancing laboratory experiment in the largest tuxedo ever made.

Igor – Ben Scharff
Inga – Kate Miller
Monster – Michael Benson
Frau – Melissa Gonzalez
Inspector/Hermit – Barry Goettl

San Antonio's Classic Theatre Relocating to Woodlawn Theatre

It’s official: Classic Moving to Woodlawn

By Deborah Martin : Friday, June 28, 2013

Classic Theatre and the Woodlawn Theatre have formally announced that the former will be moving into the latter in January.
Classic will stay at the Sterling Houston Theater at Jump-Start for the rest of the year. Then it will be running the Woodlawn’s black box space.

Classic’s current home is leased by Jump-Start Performance Co. Jump-Start’s lease was not renewed; it will be moving in January, as well, and is looking for a new home.

In Classic’s press release about the move, Woodlawn Executive Director Kurt Wehner says, “We are very excited about this new collaboration with the Classic Theatre. We love the universal themes of unity and understanding that are celebrated through their work and are delighted to join forces with them in bringing even more quality theatre into the Deco District.”
