<h2>CVLT's New Year's revue to feature songs you're not sick of</h2>
<p>CHAGRIN FALLS, OH - When the cast of <em>Forgotten Broadway</em>
takes to the Chagrin Valley Little Theatre stage this New Year's Eve,
Broadway-loving audiences seeking old chestnuts had best turn to their
Christmas leftovers. This musical revue fundraiser, the third of its
kind at CVLT, sets out on a mission to avoid songs audiences might have
heard recently. The sources certainly aren't obscure; the evening will
include songs from well-known musicals by luminaries such as Rogers
& Hammerstein, Harnick & Bock, Stephen Schwartz, Cole Porter
and others. Rather, the songs have been selected to make the audience
think "Oh, I forgot about that song being in that show!"</p>
<p><em>Forgotten Broadway</em>, with musical direction and
accompaniment by Robert Day (<em>North Coast Men's Chorus</em>) and a
small combo, features an ensemble of seven performers. Some are veteran
CVLT performers and others are new to the stage. The returning ensemble
features siblings Andrew and Greta Rothman and their mother Paula Pike,
along with Eric Alan (recently seen as 'Gaston' in Near West's <em>Beauty
& The Beast</em>). Also returning to CVLT's stage is rising star
Talia Cosentino, who was an audience favorite in CVLT's <em>Not Yet!</em>
revue on New Year's Eve 2005. This year audiences will also be treated
to the sweet tones of tenor Brian Altman, and the soprano fireworks of
Notre Dame Cathedral Latin choral teacher Ryann Angelotti.
Choreographer Pamela LaForce lends her talents to the mix, creating an
evening of lighthearted fun that will please musical theater
afficionados and newcomers alike. </p>
<p> The event begins at 8 PM, and is followed by a reception
featuring hors d'oeuvres and champagne punch. Audience members should
have plenty of time to reach their midnight destinations. Tickets are
$30, and proceeds go to operating funds for Chagrin Valley Little
Theatre, which was voted 'Best Community Theatre' by Cleveland Magazine
Readers, and 'Best Theatre Group' in the Fox 8 HotList this year. </p>
<p> Tickets can be purchased online at <a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://www.CVLT.org">www.CVLT.org</a>, or by calling the Box
Office at 440-247-8955 between 1 and 6 PM, Monday through Saturday.
CVLT is located at 40 River Street in historic Chagrin Falls Village.</p>
