*"[Trinidad] Snider takes a good play...and makes it better, surrounding
herself with an absolutely fantastic cast, and with a set, lighting, and
costumes to match. It is no wonder that this production received a standing
ovation on opening night."*
*-Chuck Poliafico, Sun Post*

Bittersweet feelings surround the Cassidy Theatre as Trinidad Snider, area
actor and director, takes on *Blood Brothers *as her final directorial
project in the Cleveland area. Having performed in such shows as *Dreamgirls,
West Side *and *Ragtime*, Snider has been a vital part of the Cassidy
family, feeding her unabated energy into every project she touches. Some of
her other Cassidy directing credits include *Knowing Then, Knowing Now: An
Original Musical Revue*, *Little Shop of Horrors*, *The Fantastiks*, *Baby*and
*Godspell*.  Snider will be relocating with husband Michael Snider and
family to Chicago to start their new adventure! When asked about working on
this production, Snider says she feels honored to have had this great
opportunity to work with such an amazing cast and crew!**



*Blood Brothers* is a rags-to-riches story that makes a haunting musical
tragedy of our times. Mrs. Johnstone, deserted by her husband and with a
houseful of kids to feed, learns she is expecting twins, whom she cannot
possibly afford to keep. She cleans for childless Mrs. Lyons who, learning
of her plight, begs one of her twins from her at birth. The two boys grow up
streets apart, never learning the truth but becoming firm friends (and in
love with the same girl) despite their differing backgrounds and the
attempts of Mrs. Lyons to keep them apart. But the Narrator, intruding like
Fate, warns that a “price has to be paid” for separating the brothers.



Performances will run April 8th-23rd, Fridays and Saturdays at 8pm and
Sundays at 3pm. Tickets are $20 for adults and $15 for students/seniors, and
