The Players Guild Theatre
Announces its
2004-2005 Season!

Canton, Ohio, May 28, 2004 -
Movie theatre seats will grow
lonely this year when patrons
discover the excitement of
experiencing theatre…live!
The 2004-2005 Season at The
Players Guild Theatre is sure
to be one of the best to date!
Filled with Broadway
favorites, literary classics
and new discoveries, this
upcoming season will prove
that theatre really is better
when experienced live!

The Main Stage erupts in the
new season with energetic
choreography and an
Oscar-nominated musical score
in the electrifying musical,
FOOTLOOSE!  Fancy footwork
ensues when the teens of a
small town passionately fight
an anti-dance law.

Due to public demand, the
intergalactic and bizarre
phenomenon of THE ROCKY HORROR
SHOW returns!  Audience
participation is required as
this interactive show
transforms the Players Guild
auditorium into an explosion
of fun and laughter.  The
Rocky Horror Show has been
described by Dan Kane of The
Canton Repository as “rolls of
toilet paper soaring
overhead…The Players Guild
400-seat auditorium never felt
more intimate or alive.”

A CHRISTMAS CAROL captures the
spirit of the holiday season
with the transformation of
mean-spirited Scrooge as he is
visited by the ghosts of
Christmas Past, Present and
Future.  With dazzling special
effects and flying ghosts,
this has become a seasonal
favorite.

The Players Guild is
partnering with the
professional Ohio Shakespeare
Festival in Shakespeare’s
powerful account of OTHELLO.
Terry Burgler, founder of the
Ohio Shakespeare Festival and
director of Les Misérables in
2002 and Titanic: A New
Musical in 2004, will once
again lend his expertise to
The Players Guild stage and
revive the power of
Shakespeare’s legendary pen.

Elegantly closing out the
season on the Main Stage is
CHILDREN OF EDEN, the
critically acclaimed musical
from the creator of Godspell
and the new Broadway smash
hit, Wicked!  Children of Eden
takes a refreshingly humorous
look at family conflict dating
all the way back before “The
Passion” to the beginning of
the Bible.

The Studio Theatre becomes
deliciously appealing with the
quirky cult hit, BAT BOY: The
Musical, about a charismatic
but bloodthirsty freak of
nature who longs to be a
normal boy.  Following Bat
Boy: The Musical is movie
icon, Mae West and her adoring
fans in DIRTY BLONDE.  This
charming new play takes a
multilayered look at the
nature of stardom through the
eyes of the American public.

Family Theatre is taking a new
glance at children’s classics
with a delightful rendition of
CINDERELLA.  Literature’s
favorite story of the
servant-girl turned princess
discovers refreshing comedy
and charm, making this version
of Cinderella the funniest
yet.  Family Theatre also
presents HONK: A Musical Tale
of The Ugly Duckling.  The
delightful children’s fable of
The Ugly Duckling is
rediscovered in this lively
musical bursting with new
twists and creative family
fun.

The Players Guild Theatre is
one of the oldest continually
producing community theatres
in the nation.  Located in the
Cultural Center for the Arts
in downtown Canton, Ohio, The
Players Guild provides
exciting theatre and invites
you to “Experience it Live!”
