Jeffrey HerrmannManaging DirectorIn May 2014, Jeffrey Herrmann was appointed as the third Managing Director in Seattle Rep’s 55-year history. In this role, Jeff oversees all the administrative functions of this nearly $13 million, nationally-recognized, not-for-profit performing arts organization, including development, finance, marketing, operations, and Board relations. Since his arrival—which coincided, to the day, with Braden Abraham’s appointment as Artistic Director—activity, attendance, fundraising, and the budget have all shown marked increases. Under Jeff’s management, the theatre also recently completed a significant renovation of the PONCHO Forum, the first major capital project undertaken by the Rep since the construction of the Leo K. Theatre in 1995; saw its world premiere of Come From Away open on Broadway, in Canada, and on national tour; reconfigured the Bagley Wright Theatre in order to produce David Byrne’s groundbreaking, immersive musical Here Lies Love, which now stands as the highest-grossing show in the Rep’s history; has committed to an initiative to increase equity, diversity, and inclusion at every level of the theatre; and completed its first strategic plan in more than a decade. Prior to his arrival in Seattle, Jeff served as Managing Director of Washington D.C.’s Woolly Mammoth Theatre Company for seven seasons. Before that, Jeff served as Producing Director at Perseverance Theatre in Juneau, AK for eight seasons. Jeff started his career in arts administration with the Albany Berkshire Ballet in Pittsfield, MA, where he served as Managing Director for three years. Born in upstate NY and raised in West Hartford, CT, Jeff received his B.A. in English at Vassar College and his M.F.A. in Theatre Management at the Yale School of Drama.

A L L I S O N G R E G O RY

I’ve never interviewed a playwright, or my husband, before. This is going to be fun—or the end of our marriage. So, you set out to write a play about male friendship, and then along the way the Vietnam War got involved. How intentional was that?

ST E V E N D I E T Z

The notion of McNamara preceded the notion of friendship. I had been obsessed with McNamara for a while—just as a history lover and news junkie—so I had all this information about him, but I didn’t know how to tell McNamara’s story. I must have been looking for a sort of portal for it. And then I had a commission from San Jose Repertory Theatre to write a new play for them, and the only stipulation is that it had to have something to do with California—it had to be regional somehow. So, I thought, well, I want to write my McNamara play, he had some CA ties, I’ll just set it in the Great Central Valley. And when I set it in the Great Central Valley, then the notion of this Vietnam vet living in a trailer off the grid came in, and that somehow freed me from writing a “McNamara” play. Suddenly I had a loner in a trailer—and then that man’s best friend came —and suddenly the friendship came into the play. I’ve long thought that this play is not “about” Vietnam any more than my play Lonely Planet is about HIV/AIDS. Those are external events used to pressurize the friendships and relationships inside the plays.

AG In this play, how much do the characters reflect people you know...or are currently living with? Because all the characters come in with really strong personalities and needs.

S D I don’t have a one-on-one point of contact between specific people I know or we know and those characters. However, I can see them as almost uber-types of certain friends I know. The character of Jeeter—this crazy shamanic dude—has parallels to a dear friend of mine, but it’s not his story. Lorraine, the angry Vietnam widow; I don’t know that woman, but I know women adjacent to her, in a sense. I also suspect the very naturalistic feel of the play made me a little nervous (it had been a long time since I’d written a “realistic,” “real time” play), and so I wanted to heighten the people. Take their fears or obsessions and put them into overdrive.

AG How do you view your male friendships versus how you view my female friendships?

S D Oh, this is dangerous territory! I think you and your friends have way more fireworks, and we have, like, big slow tectonic plates shifting. They’re not earthquakes. The best description I ever came up with for the end of a male friendship... is, like, you walk down to the basement to get something and the basement’s just not there. It’s a quiet thing.

I think we like to make fun of male friendships; there are jokes in this play about male friendships. But the fact that we jokingly diminish male friendship means we also diminish how it feels when it ends. I’ve seen how complicated it is when a friendship of yours ends. I think male friendship tends to be quieter, but I believe it can be extraordinarily deep. Something I respect about male friendship is that it is seldom effervescent. It survives time. I also think men don’t know how to end them. In my life when a male friendship

ends, it doesn’t end with a bang; it ends with a whimper. Of course, it has to end with some kind of bang in Last of the Boys because it’s a play—but I hope the play maintains the ghost quality of male friendship. I’m not always in the same city as my close circle of male friends...but I feel that they “ghost” in my life in a powerful way. In a play that is also a ghost story, that seems right to me.

AG Here’s the first sentence of the play—the stage description: “You might wonder who lives here. An old rusted trailer; a dirt and gravel yard, old trees forming a canopy behind. You got lost out here you’d need directions.” To me it sounded like your dad, the brevity and sort of straightforwardness.

The legacy of fathers haunts this play. And I know you were deeply close to yourdad. Your dad was alive when you wrote this play, but you lost him shortly after it premiered at the McCarter Theatre in 2004. Can you talk about how, and if, his absence impacts the way you experience this story?

S D Yes, it can’t not, right? John Victor Dietz must be right in the center of this play, somehow. I think of it in terms of gaps. I felt very close to my father, and loved by him, but I also felt a gap. A gap of secrets my dad had (including his service in WWII) or parts of myself that I didn’t share with him. And those are regrets now, but I suspect I’m not the only son who feels this way about his father. And was he aware of this? Did he feel a gap between himself and me? I’ll never know... Also, sitting here across the table from you, I’m aware that the first few productions of this play happened exactly between my dad’s death and the year we adopted our son, Abraham. In some ways this play is a bridge in time that connects my father and my son, who never met each other.

AG Okay, so you just left teaching at the University of Texas after 12 years. And in that time, you somehow managed to write, like, 17 plays.

S D Yeah. Sorry, America.

AG How does teaching inform your creative impulses?

S D The great thing about full-time teaching was that it made me come up with language for what my plays do and how they do it. I had never had to do that before. And I believe that, in turn, sharpened my craft. A lot of Last of the Boys was written by instinct (or so I thought)... but now after 12 years of full-time teaching, I can hear a scene read and think: “Okay, yes, that’s a Turn, that’s a Reversal, that’s a shift in Status, that’s a Story Point I can complicate later,” etc. What I thought was instinct was likely craft, but 12 years ago, I did not have language for it.

AG This is an important play for you. It must feel great to have it finally find a theatrical home in Seattle, a city we love, after all these years.

S D It’s a very powerful feeling. I’m so grateful. When I think about how long I wanted to write a play that became this play, and then to have Braden Abraham say to me that he had heard a reading of it here, maybe back around 2003? And that he had been looking for a chance to do it? That made my day. I didn’t expect anything after that, it just made me so happy that someone was still thinking about this play of mine. Then a year ago he said, “No, I’m not kidding, I’m gonna find a way to do it.” And now he has. It’s so meaningful.

AG 2003? That would’ve been during Go Dog Go!.

S D Few people are aware that they are companion plays.

Can I say one thing about my pal Joe Sedlachek? So now I had a trailer and some guys, and McNamara is gonna figure in this, somehow. And it was

just all false starts. I couldn’t start it. I kept listening to my 60s music, and I couldn’t start it. So instead, one night I just started the play as a letter to Joe, who is a Vietnam vet. And I sent it to him. So, Joe alone has a version of Last of the Boys where the opening stage direction is “Hi Joe. I’m stuck. I’m trying to write a play about these guys, and I know you were there. And I’m trying to write a play about friendship, and you’re my friend. I hope I can find a way to do this.” And it was me trying to find a connection—thinking that if I talked to Joe, a dear pal of mine who was over there, who the play is dedicated to, it might give me some traction. And it did. It got me into the first scene.

AG It got you a connection.

S D A big connection. And then Joe worked as an advisor at the premiere of the play at the McCarter Theatre—and on other productions after that, at theatres where I was not even involved with the play. And now—fittingly—Joe and his family live here in Seattle, so he’s working on the show here at the Rep, getting to be around and talk to the cast and Braden and everyone. And again, when you asked what the connections are between people I know and this play—Last of the Boys is not Joe’s story. But Joe is a spirit guide for this story.

AG That seems apropos for a play like this.

S D I think so.

AG Well, Steven Dietz, it’s been a real pleasure. Anything else?

S D I love you.

AG I don’t know if I can put that in.

I’m trying to write a play about friendship, and you’re my friend. I hope I can find a way to do this.

A L L I S O N G R E G O RY

I’ve never interviewed a playwright, or my husband, before. This is going to be fun—or the end of our marriage. So, you set out to write a play about male friendship, and then along the way the Vietnam War got involved. How intentional was that?

ST E V E N D I E T Z

The notion of McNamara preceded the notion of friendship. I had been obsessed with McNamara for a while—just as a history lover and news junkie—so I had all this information about him, but I didn’t know how to tell McNamara’s story. I must have been looking for a sort of portal for it. And then I had a commission from San Jose Repertory Theatre to write a new play for them, and the only stipulation is that it had to have something to do with California—it had to be regional somehow. So, I thought, well, I want to write my McNamara play, he had some CA ties, I’ll just set it in the Great Central Valley. And when I set it in the Great Central Valley, then the notion of this Vietnam vet living in a trailer off the grid came in, and that somehow freed me from writing a “McNamara” play. Suddenly I had a loner in a trailer—and then that man’s best friend came —and suddenly the friendship came into the play. I’ve long thought that this play is not “about” Vietnam any more than my play Lonely Planet is about HIV/AIDS. Those are external events used to pressurize the friendships and relationships inside the plays.

AG In this play, how much do the characters reflect people you know...or are currently living with? Because all the characters come in with really strong personalities and needs.

S D I don’t have a one-on-one point of contact between specific people I know or we know and those characters. However, I can see them as almost uber-types of certain friends I know.

HEN YOU LOOK BACK OVER THE PAST TO WORK OUT THE “STORY” OF A CIVILIZATION OR SOCIETY, OR EVEN YOUR OWN LIFE, YOUfind that some periods and events are more significant than others. That there are times of fundamental,

disruptive, and revolutionary change—what’s sometimes called a “paradigm shift”—that marks a sharp break with what came before and shapes all that comes after. These are not necessarily happy times even when the changes represent progress. New ways of living and thinking rarely emerge without the old ways resisting, without schisms and wounds emerging that can haunt later generations.

This comes to mind in part because November was the centenary of the end of World War I, aka The Great War; to my knowledge, the most radical and sudden “disruption” in human history. The four-year and three-month conflict left some nine million soldiers dead and six empires collapsed or fatally weakened. History is mostly a chronicle of carnage and the fall of kings, and it’s rare for either to produce fundamental change. However, in The Great

War, the destruction was so senseless that it destroyed something far more enduring than any empire: the legitimacy of centuries-old, even millennia-old elites, social structures, value systems, and cultural norms. After such a cataclysm, some embrace radical, even fantastical new ideas, while others fight to restore the old ways. It’s easy to see the last century as an ongoing struggle over the trauma of 1918.

The other reason I’m thinking on this subject is that I’ve been directing Last of the Boys, Steven Dietz’s devastating, comic, poignant, sometimes surreal 2004 drama about the lingering ghosts of the Vietnam War. The 1960s is also an era of “paradigm shift,” one which shapes our America far more than any era since. The Vietnam War was one of the challenges to the status quo that define the 60s “revolution”—the Civil Rights movement, the Sexual Revolution, the “counter-culture,” the women’s liberation movement, etc.—but they all seemed to merge in the protest over

the immorality of the war, which became the challenge most broadly and bitterly felt by the nation, and the one which most severely discredited cherished myths Americans had about their leaders, their country, and themselves. Last of the Boys examines what came after. Set at the end of the century, the play reveals an America stuck in its anger, perplexity, and shame over what was lost and unable to really accept the loss—because then what would be left?

It has been commonplace almost since the decade’s end to hear that America is “over” some aspect of the 60s; in effect, that we’ve learned and moved on from that tumultuous time period. The 1991 Persian Gulf War was hailed as a sign we were “over” Vietnam. Feminism has been declared “over” because the battle was “won.” Obama’s election in 2008 was celebrated as proof the Civil Rights struggle of the 60s was “over.” But a decade after the first Gulf War, America became bogged down in Afghanistan and Iraq. #MeToo revealed that the battle for women’s equality was never won, and now the fight against abuse is fiercer than ever. A decade after Obama’s election, racism and white supremacy have emerged to a degree unseen since, well, the 1960s.

Last of the Boys makes no reference to these schisms, but I think they and much more about the state of our Union are profoundly illuminated by Steven’s portrait of two Vietnam vets three decades after the war. These old friends are united by their shared 1960s ordeal, but also increasingly divided and estranged by how they carry the legacy of their fathers, and by their very different, deeply embedded responses to losing the old paradigms of manhood and American exceptionalism.

The play reveals an America stuck in its anger, perplexity, and shame over what was lost

A writer’s imagination distills from history, whether it’s personal or national; essential insights we could not otherwise experience. That’s the magic, the alchemy of the art, and why we need it. Steven and Last of the Boys join Tim O’Brien, Michael Herr, Bao Ninh, and more recently playwright Qui Nguyen—whose brilliant

Vietgone was seen on our stage a few seasons ago—and Viet Thanh Nguyen on the short list of writers and works that have fundamentally influenced my understanding of the Vietnam War and its legacy. And I feel a personal connection to Last of the Boys. The play is set in rural Northern California, a landscape and world I knew well growing up. Drive today through California’s Central Valley or down the two-lane highways of our state, and you’ll find tucked away places like the one to which the play’s Vietnam vet Benjamin Lee Holloway has retreated, hidden in plain view.

Steven dedicated this play to a real Vietnam vet, his close friend Joe Sedlachek, who lives in the Puget Sound area and I would like to extend that dedication to all our brothers and sisters who served in Vietnam and their families that make their home here. Thank you for joining us.

Nancy’s and Dottie’s passion for the arts and years of service at the theatre were profound, and their dedication to the Rep continues to

have an impact that will carry on for generations to come. Join us in celebrating their generous spirits. This season is for them.

It’s the intricate details that set Seattle Rep apart from other regional theatres across the country. The Last of the Boys set showcases

a unique blend of this ingenuity with a real trailer onstage, alongside a hand-painted backdrop and a world of lovingly detailed set

pieces.

When you make a gift to the theatre, you

help ensure that our creative teams have the resources necessary to put extraordinary art

on stage, season after season.
