The critically acclaimed production of I Do! I Do! by Actors' Summit, a
professional theater, will extend its run on Friday and Saturday evenings
through July 28 at 7:30 PM. The classic two person musical by Tom Jones and
Harvey Schmidt is filled with laughter and love. The run will continue at the
theater's temporary space -- the hardware store (the former Sherman
Hardware). The store is 1 1/2 miles south of Rt. 303 on Route 91 in Hudson.
"There are three reasons why we're extending," said Neil Thackaberry,
Artistic Director. "The audiences have been building wonderfully, the
audience response has been terrific with frequent standing ovations, and the
cast is just having so much fun."
The production has received rave notices, with Connie Blum of the Beacon
Journal stating it "should not be missed." and David Ritchie of the West Side
Leader proclaiming it "the perfect wedding party."
The Play
The play by the creative team responsible for the longest running musical in
history (The Fantasticks) opened on Broadway with Robert Preston and Mary
Martin. The musical is an intimate look at a marriage. It begins on the
wedding night of a young couple in the year 1900. The play concludes 50 years
later as the couple prepare to leave their home for a smaller apartment.
Based on the play The Fourposter, I Do, I Do is a feel-good musical filled
with laughter and love. From wedding night jitters, to the birth of children
and the strains experienced by every married couple, the play is a warm and
tuneful look at the American family and the changes that come with time and
love.
The Cast
The production features Wayne S. Turney and MaryJo Alexander.
Wayne S. Turney is well known to Northeast Ohio audiences from his years in
the
resident company of the Cleveland Play House and his long running hit
children's show "Hickory Hideout." Wayne founded the Cleveland Actor's
Theatre at the Hanna in downtown Cleveland and The Ohio New Play Festival at
Lorain County Community College's Stocker Center. He has appeared with Actors
Theatre of Louisville, Portland Opera, Michigan Opera Theater, Cleveland
Opera, and is a frequent guest artist with the Cleveland Institute of Music
Orchestra and The Cleveland Orchestra. He recently completed a six year
teaching assignment at Cleveland State University.
MaryJo Alexander is the associate artistic director of Actors'
Summit. She has appeared in The Gingerbread Lady and Otherwise Engaged for
Actors' Summit. MaryJo holds an MA from the University of New Orleans where
she was a member of the Resident Acting Company. MaryJo has also performed at
Ensemble Theatre, Cain Park, Porthouse Theatre and Shakespeare at Stan Hywet.
