      Happy New Year!

What a fine end to an amazing year we've had. The holiday productions of 
'Scrooge' and 'A Tuna Christmas' were smashing successes, our annual 
Gingerbread Tea was packed with kids and parents, the Chagrin Falls 
Studio Orchestra's holiday concert once again brought high-quality music 
to the stage, and the New Year's Eve musical revue with Pat Mazzarino 
and Friends was a record-breaking sell out!

After such a busy holiday season, we're always a little relieved to ease 
into a new year with a little more breathing room in our schedule, with 
the Youth Theater and one main stage production, the charming romantic 
comedy /ENCHANTED APRIL 
<http://www.cvlt.org/82ndSeason/enchantedapril.php?utm_source=monthlymail&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=jan2012>/. 
And if you're a performer, don't miss out on the auditions for the 
spring musical, THE DROWSY CHAPERONE 
<http://www.cvlt.org/auditions.php?utm_source=monthlymail&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=jan2012>, 
on January 8th and 9th!

See you soon,
/Your Friends at CVLT/

Directed by Brendan Sandham

/Enchanted April/, Matthew Barber's Tony-award winning stage adaptation 
of Elizabeth Von Arnim's 1922 novel, will be the first production of 
2012 at Chagrin Valley Little Theatre. It opens in January under the 
direction of Brendan Sandham. The play is based on the same book which 
spawned the 1992 film (nominated for several Golden Globe and Academy 
Awards) and the 2010 musical stage version.

Beginning in 1920s England, /Enchanted April/ tells the tale Lotty 
Wilson (Dawn Hill), the young wife of a prominent British solicitor, who 
settles upon an April getaway to a secluded castle in Milan to relieve 
her boredom with rainy London (and with her husband - played by Don 
Knepper). She invites along her new friend from the Ladies Club, the 
quiet and thoughtful Rose Arnott (Caitlin Van Niel). Rose is feeling 
left behind by her own husband (Joe Pine), and joins bubbly Lotty for a 
change of scenery.

Needing money to cover the rental fee of the Italian castle, Lotty 
manages to convince two unlikely strangers to go along - the 
free-spirited young socialite Lady Caroline (Evie Koh), and an 
overbearing widow named Mrs. Graves (Anna Davis). Upon reaching Milan, 
the unlikely companions also meet the castle's owner (Matt Mortensen) 
and cook (Pamela Ruiz), who soon become part of their lives.

While falling in love with the Mediterranean countryside, they each 
learn something surprising about hope, love, and themselves. It's an 
uplifting romantic comedy that's perfect for warming the heart in the 
middle of a blustery Cleveland winter!


      AUDITIONS for "The Drowsy Chaperone"

With book by Bob Martin and Don McKellar and and music and lyrics by 
Lisa Lambert and Greg Morrison, this Tony Award-winning musical pays 
homage to American musicals of the Jazz Age through the mind of one 
great fan and his well-worn cast recording.

Directed and Choreographed by Marc C. Howard
Musical Direction by Tom Olson
