[NEohioPAL] Spotlights Theater presents the Ohio Premiere of "The Very Persistent Gappers of Frip"

Spotlights  Theater  presents the Ohio Premiere of "The Very Persistent Gappers of Frip"

Tickets are still available for all performances of the Spotlights' musical production of The Very Persistent Gappers of Frip.  Don't miss the Ohio premiere of this fantastic family-friendly show that features a talented young cast, amazing music, and puppets!

"What's a Gapper?", you ask?  Come see the show to find out about the mythical orange creatures that latch onto goats, much like burrs.  The children of Frip brush gappers off their goats and toss them into the ocean, only to have them return the next day.  Sounds too bizarre to miss, right?

The show runs Thursday through Sunday, through July 25.  All shows are at the Broadview Heights Cultural Arts Building on the Broadview Center property (next to the Police Department), 9543 Broadview Road.  Show times are 7PM on Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays and 3PM on Sundays.  Tickets are $10 for adults and $9 for seniors and students.  Reservations are recommended: 440-526-4404 or www.broadview-heights-spotlights.org  

The show is directed by Tim Anderson and features Lindsay Tryon, Peter Landoll, Brianna Quinn, Krista Shorf, Eli Shively, Curt Sprunger, Corey East, Nicole Pellechia, Chrissy Margevicius, Emily Johnson, George Costanzo, Jordan Cree, Brittany Paige, Maggie Majercik, and Maddie Pierce.

The Very Persistent Gappers of Frip was originally commissioned and produced by Center Theater Group/Mark Taper Forum Performing for Los Angeles Youth (P.L.A.Y.)  This is the first performance since the premiere.  David O, composer, posted the following message on his Facebook page last week:
    David O Has finally made it to BROAD...VIEW. Just discovered the Broadview Heights 
    Spotlights are opening "The Very Persistent Gappers of Frip" next week! This is the first 
    production of the piece since it was done in the inaugural season at the Kirk Douglas 
    Theatre. Break a leg, Spotlights! Wish I could be there. Gap! Gap-Gap! Gap-Gap!
