[NEohioPAL] Children of Eden, March 20 - 22

[Tim Anderson, Education Director]

SPOTLIGHTS ANNOUNCES
"CHILDREN OF EDEN"
Premiere Education Program Musical
 
The Broadview Heights Spotlights Theater is pleased to announce its premiere education program musical, Children of Eden. The goal of the program is to give young performers the opportunity to work alongside experienced actors in a high-quality theater production. "This is the perfect choice for our premiere show because it portrays a phenomenal story and literally features every member of the cast," says Tim Anderson, newly-hired education director for the Spotlights.  "During a time when public schools' performing arts programs are being cut, the Spotlights' Board of Trustees unanimously agreed that we should provide a positive, creative outlet for young performers."  

The directing team also includes Deborah Ingersoll as music director and Tia Zingale, a 17-year-old high-school student, as choreographer.  In addition to the cast, the orchestra also includes student musicians playing alongside local professionals.   Likewise, student technicians will be responsible for the behind-the-scenes components.

The cast features experienced, well-known Cleveland actors Douglas Collier, Tim Allen, and Amiee Collier in lead roles.   

The cast also includes Angela Bruzina, Mariah Burks, Tyler Clegg, George Costanzo, Katie Hasenyager, Brian Heigel, Maggie Majercik, Nicole Pellechia, Maddie Pierce, Seth Reichenbach, Justin Schickler, Kelsey Skvoretz, Shane Stahl, Amanda Tidwell, Billy Vassilakis, Nicole Velotta, Cody Zak, and Nick Zimmer.

The show, written by Wicked and Godspell composer Stephen Schwartz, retells the first eight chapters of the Book of Genesis.  With a deeply compelling storyline and family-friendly message, the show appeals to audiences of all ages and religions.  

The show will run for one weekend, March 20 - 22, at the Brecksville-Broadview Heights Middle School Performing Arts Center, 6376 Mill Road, Broadview Heights, OH  44147.
