BRECKSVILLE THEATER ON THE SQUARE 
RECEIVES GRANT AND ANNOUNCES 2008  SEASON
Brecksville Theater On The Square has been named the recipient of a three  
year grant from Cuyahoga Arts and Culture.  Passed by voters as Issue 18 in 
November, 2006, funds have become  available to arts organizations within the 
county. BTOTS is one of only four  community theaters receiving a grant, and the 
funds are earmarked for the  enhancement of its education program.  
The theater has big plans for 2008! Winter classes are set to begin in  
February with the continuance of a master class session on film and TV, taught  by 
Jean Zarzour. BTOTS’ highly popular summer camp will be held over two weeks  
in July, culminating in a weekend of performances. (Please note summer camp 
will  again be restricted to 100 students, so watch for announcements and 
register  early). Finally the fall class session will consist of a series of unique  
workshops for all ages, covering topics such as technical theater, acting,  
dance, playwriting and so on. Add to this the monthly senior play reading group, 
 The Retreads, as well as more master classes to be announced, and it all 
adds up  to a very active year for theater education. All class sessions are held 
in  BTOTS’ newly renovated classrooms on the grounds of Blossom Hill and at 
the Old  Town Hall Theater. 
The 2008 performance season opens with  the smash hit Disney’s High School  
Musical, running February 7th-17th, featuring a cast  of 28 students and two 
adults, directed by Kimberly Bush. From May  2nd-10th   BTOTS will present the 
musical  revue The World Goes ‘Round, showcasing the work of Broadway  legends 
Kander and Ebb. The season ends with the classic family musical The Wizard of 
Oz, running September  26th-October 12th. Audition and ticket information will 
be  posted on the BTOTS website or is available by calling the box office at  
(440)526-3443.
