Mint Theater Company produces worthwhile plays from the past that have been lost or forgotten. These neglected plays offer special and specific rewards; it is our mission to bring new vitality to these plays and to foster new life for them.

Under the leadership of Jonathan Bank as Producing Artistic Director, Mint has secured a place in the crowded theatrical landscape of New York City. We have received Special Obie and Drama Desk Awards recognizing the importance of our mission and our success in fulfilling it. The Wall Street Journal describes Mint as “one of the most consistently interesting companies in town.”

Our process of excavation, reclamation and preservation makes an important contribution to the art form and its enthusiasts. Scholars have the chance to come into contact with historically significant work that they’ve studied on the page but never experienced on the stage. Local theatergoers have the opportunity to see plays that would otherwise be unavailable to them, while theatergoers elsewhere may also have that opportunity in productions inspired by our success.

Important plays with valuable lessons to teach—plays that have been discarded or ignored—are now read, studied, performed, discussed, written about and enjoyed as a result of our work.

Educating our audience about the context in which a play was originally created and how it was first received is an essential part of what we do. Our “EnrichMINT Events” enhance the experience of our audience and help to foster an ongoing dialogue around a play. These post-performance discussions feature world class scholars discussing complex topics in an accessible way and are always free and open to the general public.

We not only produce lost plays, but we are also their advocates. We publish our work and distribute our books, free of charge to libraries, theaters and universities. Our catalog of books now includes an anthology of seven plays entitled Worthy but Neglected: Plays of the Mint Theater plus five volumes in our “Reclaimed” series, each featuring the work of a single author: Teresa Deevy, Harley Granville Barker, St. John Hankin and Arthur Schnitzler.

The conflict that I find in almost all of Teresa Deevy’s plays is between ambition and contentment, between striving and acceptance, pride and humility. “Only a fool is content when he could have better,” James Whelan argues. “What good is any man if he don’t outdo who’s living beside of him?” Min asks in Temporal Powers. Content? “That’s the worst we could be—” says Martin Shea in The Wild Goose. But in each of these plays, the argument for acceptance and humility is also stated with conviction. Rarely do her plays resolve the conflict.

I can imagine, given the fierce and even-handed struggle she depicts, that in her own youth Deevy herself was deeply ambitious and proud. She created so many vital young women, like Ellie Irwin of In Search of Valour who admires Shakespeare’s Coriolanus for his disdainful superiority: “He done things proper…tramplin’ on the lot of them to the end of his life.” And Annie Kinsella, who imagines herself the King of Spain’s Daughter, riding white ships. And like Katie Roche, a brave and spirited woman who is one of Deevy’s most ambitious characters. “I am done with humble,” she proclaims: “I was meant to be proud!” Deevy makes Katie’s ambition wonderfully attractive and compelling, so compelling that we may even want her to achieve the grandeur that she longs for, and we may resent anyone who stands in her way. But I wonder if that’s what Deevy was after.

Late in her career Deevy wrote a play for broadcast called One Look and What it Led To focused on another brave and spirited young woman, Mary Magdalene. Mary is transformed by one look. “She that was proud and haughty…now so humble—you’d love her for it…” Talking about her transformation later, one woman points out the struggle she may have faced, “You can’t tell what went on within her.” Whatever the struggle, Deevy herself seems to have “conquered”.

James Cheasty, a Waterford playwright who was her friend later in her life wrote an appreciation on the occasion of her death in 1963.

As a person Teresa Deevy was, first of all heroic. She did not allow herself to be oppressed by a severe physical handicap which would have daunted countless others of lesser courage. The fact that she achieved success as a writer in spite of this handicap was to say the least remarkable. But she was a remarkable woman in many ways. Her kindness and simplicity of manner were well known to all those who had the pleasure of knowing her. Truly it can be said of her that she had the humility of the great.

WIFE TO JAMES WHELANdirected by Jonathan BankJuly 29, 2010-October 3, 2010

A love story examining a conflict between ambition and contentment, WIFE TO JAMES WHELAN was originally shunned by Ireland’s Abbey Theater, despite their having already produced six of Deevy’s plays between 1930 and 1936. Our production, the play’s American premiere, marked the beginning of Mint’s ambitious Teresa Deevy Project.

“The Mint Theater is certainly making an elegant case that the Abbey Theater in Dublin missed an opportunity almost 70 years ago when it declined to produce WIFE TO JAMES WHELAN… never less than compelling.”

Neil Genzlinger, The New York Times

“Deevy’s dialogue, colloquially simple and straightforward, seems artless at first. But on closer inspection, it turns out to gleam, like rich ore, with glints of subtext’s precious metal. Hearing-impaired or not, she listened acutely.”

TEMPORAL POWERSdirected by Jonathan BankAugust 3, 2011- October 9, 2011

The Mint continued The Deevy Project with a production of TEMPORAL POWERS. Teresa Deevy’s explosive love story won first-prize in the new play competition held in 1932 by Ireland’s world-famous Abbey Theatre. It was revived once by the Abbey in 1937, and then almost vanished forever until the Mint finally gave the play its American Premiere.

“A couple struggling mightily with poverty and each other find a sack of cash wedged in the eave of the ruined hovel they’re living in, having been evicted the day before. She wants to keep it; he wants to turn it over to the church. What unfolds is a rich and richly troubling portrait of a marriage, and a community, struggling in the vast, disaster-pocked no-man’s-land between comforting moral absolutes and total exigency. ”

Scott Brown, New York Magazine

“Unfailingly perceptive, poetic, and moving.”

edited by Jonathan Bank, John P. Harrington, and Christopher Morash

“Deevy’s work should, and hopefully will, be known to a wider audience. This edition of her three act plays, the first of two planned volumes, could do much to help that hope. The play scripts and play introductions provide a real resource for teaching, as well as greatly aiding researchers and theatre historians. Ultimately, what the Mint Theater productions and this edition of her plays show, is that Deevy is a writer for right now, not a figure to be relegated to the dusty past of theatre history.”

Emilie Pine, University College, Dublin Canadian Journal of Irish Studies

“Deevy surely belongs in the canon of the Irish playwrights we return to from the first half of the 20th century, not far behind the greats like Synge and O’Casey. Her prime turf is the small town hinterland, conveying a distinctive Irish sensibility and ambiance, moral and social; but her subject is the rocky field of intimate human relations. She creates characters who are neither types nor symbols, but mixed, difficult, quirky, needy, stubborn, self-wounding and occasionally self-transcending, like the rest of us. Her language is eloquent as action and interaction, original, seeming plain and unpretentious and true to character, and marvelously effective on the stage.” Martin Meisel, Brander Matthews Professor Emeritus of

TERESA DEEVY ABOUT THE PLAYWRIGHT

TERESA DEEVY (1894-1963)

Teresa Deevy was born on January 21, 1894 at Landscape, her family’s home in Waterford. Nicknamed Tessa, she was the youngest of 13 children. Her father died when she was two, so Tessa formed an especially close bond with her mother. Mrs. Deevy fostered young Tessa’s imagination, encouraging her to make up stories about the people and things she saw about the house. Details were important- the way light fell across a door frame, the difference between an August morning and an October afternoon—all these made a difference. This stayed with Tessa throughout her writing life.

In 1913, Tessa enrolled at University College, Dublin. She wanted to become a teacher, but after a few months she was struck by a mysterious illness. Her ears rang; she would suddenly get so dizzy so couldn’t stand up; her head throbbed. Doctors eventually diagnosed her with Meniere’s disease, an incurable condition caused by fluid imbalance in the inner ear. Meniere’s can cause deafness, and by 1914, at the age of 20, Tessa had completely lost her hearing.

She was sent to London to study lip-reading. To practice, she went to the theater. Night after night, she sat in the front row, entranced. The plays of Shaw and Chekhov were her favorite. She admired their richly drawn characters, finely crafted dialogue, and serious themes. Long ago, her mother had encouraged her to write stories. Now Tessa knew how she wanted to tell them. She decided to become a playwright.

It was an unusual ambition. Tessa had no theatrical connections. As a woman and as a person who was deaf, she didn’t fit the then-typical image of a playwright. But she was undaunted. Tessa had a quiet genius for understanding the intricacies of the human heart. Her plays would show not only a distinct gift for dialogue, but an uncanny appreciation for meaning hidden between the lines. Years after her death, Tessa’s nephew Jack would recall her striking ability to read people’s thoughts even before they spoke them—a sixth sense perhaps heightened by her deafness.

In 1925, at age 31, Tessa finally felt ready to send her plays to the Abbey, Ireland’s national theater. They were rejected, but one reader had been particularly impressed. This was Lennox Robinson, the Abbey’s managing director and a playwright himself. (Mint audiences may remember his Is Life Worth Living? from 2009). He encouraged Tessa to keep writing.

In 1930, at Robinson’s urging, the Abbey accepted Tessa’s Reapers, a sweeping family epic set in a rural “big house.” In 1932, Tessa won first prize in the Abbey’s new play contest with Temporal Powers (seen at the Mint in 2011). After seeing Temporal Powers, author Frank O’Connor sent Tessa this note: “When I saw Reapers, I knew something was happening. When I saw your new play, I realized it had happened with a vengeance.”

The years from 1930 to 1936 were among the happiest in Tessa’s life. She moved to

Gradually, as the years passed, people forgot Tessa. Many Waterford townsfolk weren’t aware she was a playwright. To them, she was a sweet old lady on a bicycle who wore mismatched socks. Poet Sean Dunn recalled her eccentric reputation:

In the Fifties, she was a thin woman on a bicycle, her gray hair tucked under one of an assortment of strange hats. She rode through the streets of Waterford and those who knew her tensed as she passed in case a car might hit her. She heard nothing and just cycled on with the nonchalance of a girl cycling along a country lane. Her clothes never seemed to match. She was seen wearing sandals or runners even in the middle of winter. Some people thought she’d once written plays. Others knew it, but it was a long time ago.

In her final years, Tessa’s vertigo—a recurrent symptom of Meniere’s—worsened. Hardly able to stand on her own, and losing her eyesight, she was moved to Maypark Nursing Home. She died there on January 19, 1963. James Cheasty, a poet and one of Tessa’s protégés, wrote in her obituary for the Irish Independent:

Teresa Deevy is dead, but she will not be forgotten. Those of us who were her friends can never forget her kindness and her great humanity. For remembrance among the general public she has left behind her work, which is monumental.

TERESA DEEVY ABOUT PLAYWRIGHT

Dublin with her sister, Nell, who served as a companion and interpreter. She had six plays produced at the Abbey and was considered one of Ireland’s most promising playwrights. Her most popular play, Katie Roche (1936), about an illegitimate servant girl who longs to achieve greatness, was produced in Dublin and London and was included in the Abbey’s 1937 American tour. It was also published in Victor Gollancz’s influential anthology “Famous Plays”.

Then, in the 1940’s, the Abbey mysteriously turned down Tessa’s next play, Wife to James Whelan (seen at the Mint in 2010). Tessa’s career at the Abbey was effectively over, though they continued to revive some of her older work (Katie Roche was revived five times during her lifetime) and they produced her one act Light Falling at their experimental space, the Peacock, in 1948. (Light Falling was read at the Mint’s benefit in 2010). Deevy eventually managed to find other venues for her new work: Wife to James Whelan was produced at Dublin’s tiny Studio Theatre in 1956, Light Falling was the curtain-raiser for Jack McGowran’s production of Shadow of A Gunman at London’s Lyric Theatre, Hammersmith in 1957. Meanwhile, to support herself, Tessa turned her attention to the burgeoning field of radio. Between 1938 and 1946, she wrote over a dozen plays for the B.B.C. and Radio Éireann, as well as adapted her stage plays for broadcast. She supervised rehearsals by reading the actors’ lips and amazed everyone with her precise orchestration of sound.

Teresa’s beloved sister Nell died in February 1954. Without Nell as her interpreter, Tessa could not survive in Dublin. Heartbroken, she returned home to Landscape. Tessa was now removed from the center of Ireland’s artistic life, but she was not yet forgotten. In October 1954, she was elected to the Irish Academy of Letters, Ireland’s highest literary honor, though without Nell the triumph was bittersweet.
