Founded by Bill and Mark Corcoran as an extension of Judson Senior Living’s internationally renowned program for cultural enrichment for its residents and members, Theatre in the Circle regularly produced shows until 2020, when the COVID pandemic changed the world and halted theatrical performances nationwide for several months. We’re excited to announce that on October 3, 4, and 5, 2025, Theatre in the Circle will partner with Judson Senior Living to stage a comeback with their production of “Always…Patsy Cline.” Based on a true story, it was created and originally directed by Ted Swindley. It powerfully documents Patsy’s life and career, featuring many of her recorded hits, including "Crazy," "I Fall to Pieces," "You’re Cheatin’ Heart," and "Walkin' After Midnight." Starring Braelin Andrzejewski and Jacqi Loewy, with musical direction by Artistic Director Bill Corcoran, the show will once again transform Judson Manor’s historic and elegant Ballroom into a high-quality, intimate Theatre. Tickets will go on sale to the general public on September 1, 2025. Theatre in the Circle is a production created by older adults for their peers. Thanks to the generous support from donors to Judson Foundation, this innovative program brings a vibrant touch of culture and creativity to the community. It truly embodies Judson's mission of Bringing Community to Life by engaging older adults in meaningful artistic experiences. Venue: Judson Manor Ballroom, 1890 E. 107th Street, Cleveland, OH Show: “Always…Patsy Cline” Dates: October 3, 7:30 pm, October 4, 7:30 pm, and October 5, 2:00 pm Ticket price: $20 for the public – to purchase tickets or for more information visit: theatreinthecircle.org <http://theatreinthecircle.org/> Theatre Information: theatreinthecircle.org <http://theatreinthecircle.org/> / (216) 280-0960 / theatreinthecircle(a)gmail.com <mailto:mailto:theatreinthecircle@gmail.com>

Nuncrackers Audition Notice
by Cassidy Theatre 11 Sep '25

11 Sep '25

Cassidy Theatreseeks a diverse, talented cast of 6 adult and 4-6 youth artists for it’s upcoming production of “NUNCRACKERS: The Nunsense Christmas Musical” Book, Music & Lyrics By: Dan Goggin Directed By: Mike Caraffi Vocal Direction By: Mike Caraffi Choreography By: Kim Mihalik Performance Dates: December 5 – 21, 2025 Rehearsals Begin: Early October Audition Date: Monday, September 15, 2025 at 7:00pm Location: Cassidy Theatre, 6200 Pearl Rd. Parma Heights, OH. 44130 Video submissions will be accepted PRIOR to September 15th via email to mcaraffi(a)cassidytheatre.com The Nunsense Christmas Musical, Nuncrackers, is presented as the first TV special taped in the Cable Access Studio built by Reverend Mother in the convent basement. It stars the nuns you love, plus Father Virgil, and four of Mount Saint Helen's most talented students. Featuring all new songs including Twelve Days Prior to Christmas, Santa Ain't Comin' to Our House, We Three Kings of Orient Are Usand It's Better to Give than to Receive, this show is filled with typical Nunsense humor, some of your favorite carols, and a "Secret Santa" audience participation. This Nunsense Christmas Show will make you laugh and maybe tug at your heartstrings. It's the perfect way to ensure that your holiday season is merry and bright! Cast of Characters: Sister Mary Regina (Reverend Mother)is the Mother Superior of the Little Sisters of Hoboken. She tries to be strict and keep order, but things often get out of her control. She grew up in a circus family and her “showbiz” background and sense of humor always shine through her attempt at creating a tough exterior. Sister Mary Hubert is the Mistress of Novices. She is second in command to Mother Superior. She wanted to be a nun all her life and at times finds ir difficult to deal with problems she firmly believes are created by Mother Superior’s ineptness. Ahe is very practical. She and Mother Superior have a healthy and humorous rivalry. Sister Robert Anneis a streetwise nun from Brooklyn, New York. She is one tough cookie but has a heart and soul of gold. The students love her because she “speaks their language.” She feels she has real theatrical potential and is constantly frustrated by Reverend Mother’s refusal to let her “star” in the show. Sister Mary Paul (aka Amnesia)was hit on the head with a crucifix and for a long period didn’t remember who she was. Now, everyone knows she is Sister Mary Paul, a country singer who jump-started her recording career as the first nun to appear at the Grand Ole Opry. Even though she has her memory back she always seems to be a “little vacant” but innocently endearing. Sister Mary Leo, a novice in the first three shows, now has her black veil. She is very excited to be in the Christmas show, because Reverend Mother has allowed her to dance in the Nutcracker Ballet. Sister Leo has dedicated her life to becoming the first famous nun ballerina. NOTE: Sister Leo appears only at the top of the show. Father Virgilis Sister Mary Leo’s “real-life” brother. He is a Franciscan Father of Fort Wayne and grew up in the Mississippi Delta where he and his sister were part of the Trott Family Singers. He now has his own radio show, and the sisters invited him to participate in the Christmas program because they knew he could give them pointers on presenting a good show. Mount St. Helen’s Studentsare elementary students of Mt. St. Helen’s School aging in range from 8 – 13 years of age. Auditioners should prepare 16-32 bars or a song of their choosing that showcases their vocal range and ability. Please prepare for and dress for movement. Cold reading from the script may be required – if needed. An accompanist will be provided. At Cassidy Theatre, we believe that the stage is strongest when it reflects the fullness of our community. We are committed to providing equitable casting opportunities for artists of all races, ethnicities, genders, identities, abilities, and backgrounds. Every performer who auditions will be considered with fairness, respect, and an open mind. We encourage all interested artists to share their talent, knowing that their unique voice and presence are valued as part of our storytelling.

Winner of the Tony Award for Best Musical and the Pulitzer Prize for Drama, Rent has become a pop cultural phenomenon. with songs that rock and a story that resonates with audiences of all ages. Based loosely on Puccini's La Boheme, Jonathan Larson's Rent follows a year in the life of a group of impoverished young artists and musicians struggling to survive and create in New York's Lower East Side, under the shadow of HIV/AIDS.

'The Mousetrap' Opens This Friday 9/12 at Clague Playhouse
by Clague Playhouse 09 Sep '25

09 Sep '25

Clague Playhouse presents *Agatha Christie's The Mousetrap *from September 12 through October 5. Performances are on Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays at 7:30PM and on Sundays at 2PM. Agatha Christie’s iconic murder mystery is the world’s most successful and longest-running play. After a local woman is murdered, the guests and staff at Monkswell Manor find themselves stranded during a snowstorm. It soon becomes clear that the killer is among them and the seven strangers grow increasingly suspicious of one another. A police detective, arriving on skis, interrogates the suspects: the newlyweds running the house; a spinster with a curious background; an architect who seems better equipped to be a chef; a retired Army major; a strange little man who claims his car has overturned in a drift; and a jurist who makes life miserable for everyone. When a second murder takes place, tensions and fears escalate, culminating in a brilliant surprise finish. Directed by Ron Sternfeld, our cast features: Jon Fancher as Major Metcalf, Margaret Hnat as Miss Casewell, Barb Howitt as Mrs. Boyle, Assad Khaishgi as Mr. Paravicini, Corey Knick as Christopher Wren, Rowan Myatt-Jones as Sergeant Trotter, James Robert Newton as Giles Ralston, and Erin Williams as Mollie Ralston. Talk-backs with the cast and crew will be held after the show on Saturday 9/13, Sunday 9/21, and Saturday 9/28.
