*About the Play*

*Are We There Yet? *by James Hindman, Ray Roderick, & Cheryl Stern; Music by
John Glaudini, has played to critical raves in New York and in regional
theaters across the country. "Every scene reminded me of my family. Only
it’s a whole lot funnier on stage!" *New York** Press. “ARE WE THERE YET? *Hits
a lot of home runs for suburban moms and pops who know the drill!”
*Dallas**Morning News.

* *

*Are We There Yet?* is a laugh filled, heart-touching musical romp -- a look
at the modern American family through songs and sketches. A cast of four
sings, dances, and acts their way through the ups and downs of being part of
a family. From family trips in the car, to the old folks moving to Florida,
from little league baseball and dance recitals to prom night and dating the
second time around -- it's “Everybody Loves Raymond” meets “I Love You,
You’re Perfect, Now Change.”



*The Cast*

Keith Stevens and Shawn Galligan team up again as they did this past Summer
in *Don’t Hug Me. Joining them is Shani Ferry who has been seen frequently
on the Actors’ Summit stage. Newcomer Dawn Sniadak joins Actors’ Summit for
the first time. Equally at home in musical comedy and classical opera, Dawn
has been seen locally in **Forbidden Broadway* and *Pirates of Penzance*,
among others.



In keeping with Actors’ Summit’s mission, all four performers make their
homes here in Ohio: Stevens in Sagamore Hills, Galligan & Ferry in Cuyahoga
Falls, and Sniadak in Stow.



Each of the four performers plays a range of roles within family settings
from an infant to an elderly retiree. Fathers, sons, mothers, daughters and
grandparents all are given their turn.
