San Francisco companies tend to charge more at the door, and city government exponentially outspends Oakland in art grants; in Oakland’s most recent budget process, arts funding \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/arts/13861153/its-criminal-cultural-funding-cuts-frustrate-oakland-artists\">even dipped\u003c/a>. Berkeley has several venues with resident companies supported by a wealthier, better-established audience. “We’re courting a different demographic,” Nzinga said. “We have a pricing scale, and we pass a hat at the end of each show—the joke is you have to pay at the door and then pay to leave.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Flight Deck’s monthly overhead, according to Shneiderman, is $20,000-$25,000. Rental rates, though subsidized by fundraising, make it difficult to fairly compensate performers while offering affordable tickets. TheatreFIRST, at Berkeley’s Live Oak Theater, this year replaced stipends with an hourly rate.

Relying on wealthy individual donors bends programming to a narrow demographic. “It begs the question of who’s being served,” she said. The arts nonprofit system entrenches instead of disperses social and economic standing, and donors receive tax advantages and burnished names without “rebalancing wealth or power in any significant way,” Shneiderman said, calling the model a form of “extractive capitalism.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For Shneiderman, this critique is the prelude to a pitch for what she’s calling the “Oakland Cultural Space Cooperative,” a network of extant spaces for rehearsal and performance with a centralized booking portal. She’s preparing to begin a year-long design process—supported by local and state philanthropies—in collaboration with several other organizations. “We want it to also have a pathway to ownership,” she added.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Before then, Ragged Wing Ensemble will present \u003cem>The Art of Leaving\u003c/em>, its final program at Flight Deck, on March 29, 2020. Shneiderman describes it as a “multi-layered, participatory project” to gather thoughts on leaving from attendees, celebrate resiliency and culminate with a raucous march along Broadway. Like Nzinga with Lower Bottom Playaz, Shneiderman anticipates Ragged Wing returning to presenting compact, tourable productions in nontraditional venues such as homes and outdoor spaces.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s sad,” she said. “But it’s precipitating something new.”\u003c/p>\n\n","blocks":[],"excerpt":"Anna Shneiderman of Flight Deck and Ragged Wing Ensemble believes the nonprofit arts system is broken beyond repair.","status":"publish","parent":0,"modified":1705021804,"stats":{"hasAudio":false,"hasVideo":false,"hasChartOrMap":false,"iframeSrcs":[],"hasGoogleForm":false,"hasGallery":false,"hasHearkenModule":false,"hasPolis":false,"paragraphCount":22,"wordCount":1270},"headData":{"title":"Flight Deck, Oakland’s Only Black Box Theater, to Close in March | KQED","description":"Anna Shneiderman of Flight Deck and Ragged Wing Ensemble believes the nonprofit arts system is broken beyond repair.","ogTitle":"","ogDescription":"","ogImgId":"","twTitle":"","twDescription":"","twImgId":"","schema":{"@context":"http://schema.org","@type":"Article","headline":"Flight Deck, Oakland’s Only Black Box Theater, to Close in March","datePublished":"2019-11-19T20:01:42.000Z","dateModified":"2024-01-12T01:10:04.000Z","image":"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/02/KQED-OG-Image@1x.png"}},"sticky":false,"templateType":"standard","featuredImageType":"standard","path":"/arts/13870004/flight-deck-oaklands-only-black-box-theater-to-close-in-march","audioTrackLength":null,"parsedContent":[{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Ragged Wing Ensemble announced Tuesday that \u003ca href=\"http://www.theflightdeck.org/\">Flight Deck\u003c/a>, Oakland’s only shared black-box theater, will close early next year in a serious loss for the East Bay’s performing arts landscape. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Anna Shneiderman, co-founder and executive director of \u003ca href=\"https://www.raggedwing.org/\">Ragged Wing Ensemble\u003c/a>, stood in the 99-seat theater at 1540 Broadway in downtown Oakland, a venue used for performance, rehearsal and administration by 70 artists and organizations annually, and described the building seven years ago. “The roof was caving in,” she said. “You could see through this floor to the dirt underneath.” \u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"aside","attributes":{"named":{"postid":"arts_13861153,arts_13866354,arts_13850988","label":""},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Shneiderman, who’d run Ragged Wing as a nomadic theater troupe with artistic director Amy Sass since 2004, raised $300,000 to create a 4,000-square-foot performing-arts hub within the dilapidated warehouse, immediately attracting resident companies such as \u003ca href=\"http://www.lowerbottomplayaz.com/\">Lower Bottom Playaz\u003c/a>. “With no marketing, people were banging on the door,” she said.

Relying on wealthy individual donors bends programming to a narrow demographic. “It begs the question of who’s being served,” she said. The arts nonprofit system entrenches instead of disperses social and economic standing, and donors receive tax advantages and burnished names without “rebalancing wealth or power in any significant way,” Shneiderman said, calling the model a form of “extractive capitalism.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For Shneiderman, this critique is the prelude to a pitch for what she’s calling the “Oakland Cultural Space Cooperative,” a network of extant spaces for rehearsal and performance with a centralized booking portal. She’s preparing to begin a year-long design process—supported by local and state philanthropies—in collaboration with several other organizations. “We want it to also have a pathway to ownership,” she added.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Before then, Ragged Wing Ensemble will present \u003cem>The Art of Leaving\u003c/em>, its final program at Flight Deck, on March 29, 2020. Shneiderman describes it as a “multi-layered, participatory project” to gather thoughts on leaving from attendees, celebrate resiliency and culminate with a raucous march along Broadway. Like Nzinga with Lower Bottom Playaz, Shneiderman anticipates Ragged Wing returning to presenting compact, tourable productions in nontraditional venues such as homes and outdoor spaces.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"floatright"},"numeric":["floatright"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s sad,” she said. “But it’s precipitating something new.”\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}}],"link":"/arts/13870004/flight-deck-oaklands-only-black-box-theater-to-close-in-march","authors":["11091"],"categories":["arts_1","arts_835","arts_235","arts_967"],"tags":["arts_3560","arts_2552","arts_7624","arts_5914","arts_1118","arts_746","arts_596","arts_1143","arts_1072","arts_3879"],"featImg":"arts_13870006","label":"arts"},"arts_13855139":{"type":"posts","id":"arts_13855139","meta":{"index":"posts_1591205157","site":"arts","id":"13855139","score":null,"sort":[1555625495000]},"guestAuthors":[],"slug":"in-new-play-down-here-below-the-audience-becomes-one-with-a-homeless-camp","title":"In New Play 'Down Here Below,' the Audience Becomes One With a Homeless Camp","publishDate":1555625495,"format":"standard","headTitle":"In New Play ‘Down Here Below,’ the Audience Becomes One With a Homeless Camp | KQED","labelTerm":{"term":140,"site":"arts"},"content":"\u003cp>For a show that didn’t have a confirmed venue until a couple weeks before opening night, it’s somewhat appropriate that the world-premiere production of \u003cem>Down Here Below\u003c/em>, from Oakland’s Ubuntu Theater Project, is set in a homeless encampment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In Ubuntu’s production, situated in the loading zone of the Oakland branch of FLAX artist supply store, the cast occupies an ephemeral camp called the “Village of Radical Acceptance.” It’s a bare-bones suggestion of a camp, really, created from a few tarps and chairs, scattered milk crates, a refrigerator box, and graffiti-covered walls.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>By serendipitous coincidence, Ubuntu’s run of \u003cem>Down Here Below—\u003c/em>an adaptation of Maxim Gorky’s \u003cem>The Lower Depths\u003c/em> by Ubuntu associate artist, Lisa Ramirez—coincides with that of \u003cem>The Jungle\u003c/em>, across the Bay at the Curran Theatre in San Francisco.

A vision in which it’s understood that no one person will ever know the whole of another’s life, but that within the context of a certain place and time, they can be a part of each other’s stories.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_13855142\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-13855142\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2019/04/DownHereBelow_Champagne-Hughes-Abbey_credit_Jose-Manuel-Moctezuma-800x534.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"534\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2019/04/DownHereBelow_Champagne-Hughes-Abbey_credit_Jose-Manuel-Moctezuma-800x534.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2019/04/DownHereBelow_Champagne-Hughes-Abbey_credit_Jose-Manuel-Moctezuma-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2019/04/DownHereBelow_Champagne-Hughes-Abbey_credit_Jose-Manuel-Moctezuma-768x512.jpg 768w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2019/04/DownHereBelow_Champagne-Hughes-Abbey_credit_Jose-Manuel-Moctezuma.jpg 1000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Champagne Hughes as Abbey visits her sister Blue in the Village of Radical Acceptance. \u003ccite>(Jose Manuel Monteczuma)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Directed by Michael French, \u003cem>Down Here Below\u003c/em> is a naturalistic doorway into an everyday milieu that’s disproportionately ignored by both our playwrights and politicians.

However, he’s given what may be the most poignant speech of the play at its end, and it’s satisfying to witness his completed transformation into the man he was perhaps always destined to become.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_13827616\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/03/Dance_1042-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"Halili Knox (Viola) and Berwick Haynes (Oscar) in 'Dance of the Holy Ghosts.' \" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-13827616\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/03/Dance_1042-800x533.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/03/Dance_1042-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/03/Dance_1042-768x512.jpg 768w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/03/Dance_1042-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/03/Dance_1042.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/03/Dance_1042-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/03/Dance_1042-960x640.jpg 960w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/03/Dance_1042-240x160.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/03/Dance_1042-375x250.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/03/Dance_1042-520x347.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Halili Knox (Viola) and Berwick Haynes (Oscar) in ‘Dance of the Holy Ghosts.’ \u003ccite>(Simone Finney)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Where the play fails to satisfy are in some of the more superfluous storylines, particularly those set in young Marcus’ fourth-grade Catholic school classroom, despite Halili Knox’ dual-role as the gamin-cute “new girl,” Marcus’ first crush, and the humorously ineffectual Father Michael (Anthone Jackson). As droll as many of these vignettes are, they distract from the already expansive, non-linear retelling of a history long on detail and short on pith. In all, the play runs close to the three-hour mark, with all the same discomforts and rewards as a church service of the same length might offer: hard pews, inadequate heating, a shot at transcendence.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For congregants who take pleasure in the rewards of opening themselves to a shared experience with fellow truth-seekers, this show offers a real opportunity to abandon oneself to the singular melody of Marcus Gardley’s ode to his childhood home.
