    CVLT's New Year's revue to feature songs you're not sick of

CHAGRIN FALLS, OH - When the cast of /Forgotten Broadway/ takes to the 
Chagrin Valley Little Theatre stage this New Year's Eve, Broadway-loving 
audiences seeking old chestnuts had best turn to their Christmas 
leftovers. This musical revue fundraiser, the third of its kind at CVLT, 
sets out on a mission to avoid songs audiences might have heard 
recently. The sources certainly aren't obscure; the evening will include 
songs from well-known musicals by luminaries such as Rogers & 
Hammerstein, Harnick & Bock, Stephen Schwartz, Cole Porter and others. 
Rather, the songs have been selected to make the audience think "Oh, I 
forgot about that song being in that show!"

/Forgotten Broadway/, with musical direction and accompaniment by Robert 
Day (/North Coast Men's Chorus/) and a small combo, features an ensemble 
of seven performers. Some are veteran CVLT performers and others are new 
to the stage. The returning ensemble features siblings Andrew and Greta 
Rothman and their mother Paula Pike, along with Eric Alan (recently seen 
as 'Gaston' in Near West's /Beauty & The Beast/). Also returning to 
CVLT's stage is rising star Talia Cosentino, who was an audience 
favorite in CVLT's /Not Yet!/ revue on New Year's Eve 2005.  This year 
audiences will also be treated to the sweet tones of tenor Brian Altman, 
and the soprano fireworks of Notre Dame Cathedral Latin choral teacher 
Ryann Angelotti.  Choreographer Pamela LaForce lends her talents to the 
mix, creating an evening of lighthearted fun that will please musical 
theater afficionados and newcomers alike.

The event begins at 8 PM, and is followed by a reception featuring hors 
d'oeuvres and champagne punch. Audience members should have plenty of 
time to reach their midnight destinations.  Tickets are $30, and 
proceeds go to operating funds for Chagrin Valley Little Theatre, which 
was voted 'Best Community Theatre' by Cleveland Magazine Readers, and 
'Best Theatre Group' in the Fox 8 HotList this year.

Tickets can be purchased online at www.CVLT.org <http://www.CVLT.org>, 
or by calling the Box Office at 440-247-8955 between 1 and 6 PM, Monday 
through Saturday. CVLT is located at 40 River Street in historic Chagrin 
Falls Village.
