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 (Brint Learned), 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!
