THE KENTUCKY CYCLE
Director Patricia Ansuini
Biography

I have been working in theatre and opera for approximately 25 years as an AEA, AGMA stage manager, director and teacher in theatres in Michigan, the Midwest and Southwest. Nine years ago, I co-designed the MFA in stage management offered at the Wayne State University theatre department where I continue to teach and mentor the MFA stage management candidates. In the intervening years I have added an undergraduate stage management lab to the program.

My professional work as a director has included Sand Mountain for which, in the1989/90 season, I was chosen as best director by the Detroit News and Detroit Free Press. In the years following, my direction of Spunk, Antigone, The Stillborn Lover, Dancing at Lughnasa and The Laramie Project earned me best director nominations. For the 2003-04 season I was chosen as best co-director for The Kentucky Cycle by the Oakland Press which also named it best play. The Detroit Free Press also nominated my work as co-director along with a nomination for best play.

I have worked with new playwrights, directed innumerable staged readings and conducted workshops and seminars in directing and stage management. I am currently studying to obtain a Master of Arts in theatre in pursuit of an eventual Ph.D.

I believe that the art of theatre offers a paradigm for life. The cooperative dynamics of theatre production allow for and require the greatest investment of each individual toward achieving the common goal of art. Theatre demonstrates, to those creating it and the audiences that attend the performances, the efficacy, joy and fulfillment of collaborative effort. That is what I try to exemplify, encourage and reward when I direct.
