Phoenix isn't usually among those cities one thinks when one lists the nation's capitals of culture. This is in spite of the city's sheer size, which has it ranked as fourth biggest in the nation. As Arizonans increasingly partake of theatre Phoenix, the biggest city in the Southwest, begins to take its place among the more renowned culture centers.
Newer, Sunbelt cities, without deep histories compared to those North and East, have some real challenges in establishing themselves as true, whole, urban centers. Doing this is about a lot more than the egoistic goal of being as renowned as Boston or Philadelphia. These cities, so often first laid out as mere meshes of highways, need to become real communities, and developing live theatre is a great aid in building community.
Phoenix, AZ grew to maturity during the era of highways and television. Both of these features of modern life, in different but complementary ways, tended to act against the cultivation of a robust urban lifestyle. A highway based city lacks an older city's warm, human-scale pedestrian life, with its pleasure of walking from shop to shop, and neighbors gossiping on the corner.
If anything, television is even more debilitating to urban life, since it offers the ultimate convenience of being entertained in one's own home. We now have several generations who might be expert in the finest television drama, but who have no idea of the unique energy of a live performance before a packed house.
In response, the city has developed its downtown into a secret treasure and cultural corridor. Not just the venues, but the architecture itself is a delight to the eyes. The downtown is, in itself, the first course of an evening out that can include fine dining and strolling beneath the stars.
Some venues offer first-rate popular fare, all adding to the vibrancy of downtown Phoenix. The Orpheum is focused on familiar, well-loved popular musicals and other performances. The Comerica is a concert hall treating the public to major musical and comedic talents famous across the world.
Two treats of architecture are showcases for living drama. The Phoenix Theatre gives fresh dramas penned by the nation's best dramatists, as well as the most sophisticated new musicals. It provides classes in writing as well as acting for teenagers among a broad menu of community outreach projects to build a public appetite for drama.
The Arizona Theatre Company has its home in the lovely Herberger Theater Center, with another venue in Tucson. It too is committed to cultivating an appetite for drama, with outreach programs for school students and their teachers. Its program emphasizes popular but excellent fare, such as new thrillers and suspense drama, along with dramatic efforts from the finest of TV writers.
Perhaps it is time to retire the term "fly over country" completely, now that such sophisticated pleasures are available in such a sophisticated urban environment. Suddenly the desert is a desert only in the sense of its lack of water, for there is no lack of culture. More and more often, people are turning off the television and coming downtown to take in a show. One can always leave the DVR running, after all.
