this past Saturday I had the most pleasurable experience I have ever had  
while watching community theatre.  I attended the production of Jesus  Christ 
Superstar sponsored by the Shore Cultural Centre and Silhouette  Productions.  

Having been in the pit for various productions, as well as having been in  
attendance of many other productions through the years at a number of local  
venues, I was expecting a quality show.  However, what I got was much more  than 
I expected.  This show was definitely a cut above any other show that  I have 
seen produced locally.  The combination of Rick McGuigan as Jesus,  Damian 
Henri as Judas, and Laura Rightnour as Mary Magdalene, was the foundation  of an 
expertly cast show which also featured Larry Didanato as Pilate, Pat  
Mazzarino as Herod, Jacob Lowe as Simon,and Jim Ray as Caiphas.  The  remaining cast 
consisting of more than 30 voices, was a very nice compliment to  the 
principles.

Sincere commendation to artistic director Chuck Abraham, musical  director 
David Coxe, and choreographer Jennifer Leinweber, for assembling and  preparing 
this fine cast.  If you enjoy good community theatre, you will  enjoy this 
show.  If you enjoy great  community theatre, you will not be disappointed.

The show closes this weekend with shows on Friday and Saturday, May 20  & 21, 
at 7:00 p.m.  The theatre is located in the Shore Cultural  Centre, 291 East 
222nd St. in Euclid, Ohio, at the intersection of Babbit Road  and East 222nd. 
 Advance sale tickets can be purchased for a $2.00 discount  by calling the 
theatre box office at (216)289-8107 (special rates for seniors,  students, 
groups of 10 or more are also available).
