Closing weekend of Assassins at Western Reserve Playhouse
by Western Reserve Playhouse 06 Nov '19

06 Nov '19

Western Reserve Playhouse Closing Weekend - Friday and Saturday “Assassins” By Stephen Sondheim and Book by John Weidman Directed by Dawn Sniadak-Yamokoski - Musical Direction by Bryan Bird and Dave Stebbins Synopsis: A multiple Tony Award-winning theatrical tour-de-force, Assassin's combines Sondheim's signature blend of intelligently stunning lyrics and beautiful music with a panoramic story of our nation's culture of celebrity and the violent means some will use to obtain it, embodied by America's four successful and five would-be presidential assassins. Bold, original, disturbing and alarmingly funny, Assassins is perhaps the most controversial musical ever written. Assassins lays bare the lives of nine individuals who assassinated or tried to assassinate the President of the United States, in a one-act historical "revusical" that explores the dark side of the American experience. From John Wilkes Booth to Lee Harvey Oswald, writers, Stephen Sondheim and John Weidman, bend the rules of time and space, taking us on a nightmarish roller coaster ride in which assassins and would-be assassins from different historical periods meet, interact and inspire each other to harrowing acts in the name of the American Dream. This cast is filled with new talent on our stage and some fan favorites. This ensemble cast features Adam Harris, Kyle Burnett (Dogfight), Jasen Leupold, Chirs Bizub, John Peters ($5 Bucks Readings), Kimberly Sullivan (Dogfight, Bridges of Madison County), Olivia Petrey,Jacob Gaspar, Derrick Winger, Patrick Dukeman (Boys in the Band), Daniel Hunsicker (Dogfight, Tartuffe), Braelin Andrzejewski, Patrick Hanlon, Andrew Yamokoski, Jack Stulak, Ben Arrington(Dogfight, Heathers), Steven Schuerger (Heathers), Emily Shipley(Heathers, Emma) Directed by Dawn Sniadak-Yamokoski and Musical Directors, Bryan Bird and Dave Stebbins, Stage Managed by Hannah Hilty(Anne of Green Gables) , Costume Design by Kelsey Tomlinson (Little Women), Light Design by Kevin Rutan (The Bridges of Madison County), props by Sue Snyder (Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf?), Set Design by Dawn Sniadak-Yamokoski, Scenic Painting by Noah Hrbek (The Bridges of Madison County/Dogfight) and Sound/Set Construction by Justin Herman and barn wood frames by The Funky Squirrel.

05 Nov '19

The Walsh Jesuit High School CenterStage Theatre presents their Fall dramatic production, “War of the Worlds: The Panic Broadcast” November 14 at 7pm, November 15 and 16 at 7:30pm, November 16 and 17 at 2pm. Tickets are only $10 for adults, and $7.00 for students and Senior Citizens. There will be a $5.00 preview show on Wednesday, November 13 at 7pm. All the shows will be held in the WJ Theater at the school, 4550 Wyoga Lake Road in Cuyahoga Falls. The show is a play within a play and is set in a radio broadcast studio. Adapted for the stage by Joe Landry, the actors are recreating the famous broadcast that gripped the nation in 1938, but 10 years after the fact. Director David Banks sees this show as a unique opportunity to remind everyone what can happen when fake news, even in the form of a staged radio play, is set upon the public. The audience will be a true “studio” audience, and commercials, sound effects and music will be live by an onstage orchestra!

Auditions for 'The 39 Steps' At Cassidy This Weekend!
by The Cassidy Theatre 05 Nov '19

05 Nov '19

Cassidy Theatre Presents... *Auditions* *'The 39 Steps'* by Patrick Barlow Adapted from the John Buchan Novel and Alfred Hitchcock Film Directed by Louis R. Petrucci *Production Dates:* Preview - February 6th, 2020 Run - February 7th - 23rd Fridays/Saturdays @ 8:00 Sundays *Dates:* Auditions: November 10th & 11th, 7:00 p.m. - 10:00 p.m. Callbacks: By invitation only - November 14th, 7:00 p.m. - 10:00 p.m. Rehearsals will begin sometime around December 8th/9th, with a full schedule pending upon casting/conflicts. Expect at least 4 rehearsal per week minimum till opening. *What to Prepare:* Nothing! We will be providing sides and scenes for cold readings at the auditions and callbacks. There will be no appointments necessary, but we do ask interested parties to arrive as early on in the night as possible to be able to read against other auditionees. *Show Synopsis:* In The 39 Steps, a man with a boring life meets a woman with a thick accent who says she’s a spy. When he takes her home, she is murdered. Soon, a mysterious organization called “The 39 Steps” is hot on the man’s trail in a nationwide manhunt that climaxes in a death-defying finale! *Character Breakdowns:* Richard Hannay - (Male, Mid 20s - 40s) Having just returned to England after serving as an intelligence officer in the Boer war, Hannay finds life in London dull and tiring. Although Hannay describes himself as ordinary, he is the typical English gentleman hero – well educated, rich, strong, dashing and suave, looking for fun and adventure. He is described by others as thirty-seven years old, attractive with a pencil moustache. Later when on the run he is described as, “slightly more rugged-looking, which makes him look even better looking than he did before.” Looking for a quiet night at the theatre, he is thrust into the world of espionage and he feels it is his duty to put his country’s interest before his own safety. He is the hapless hero of the play, wrongly accused of murder and pursued by the authorities through a series of highly improbable adventures. Role requires strong British dialect work. Annabella Schmidt/Pamela/Margaret - (Female, Mid 20s - 40s) The roles of Annabella, Pamela, and Margaret are played by the same actor throughout the production. Anabella is the beautiful, mysterious German woman Richard meets at a London theatre. She tells him she is a spy and gives him clues to a mystery before her untimely and suspicious death. Pamela is met by Richard on a train to Scotland, as he is pursued by the police. They meet again at a rally - each encounter, however, she gives him up to the authorities believing him to be dangerous. However, when she finds herself reluctantly hand-cuffed to our hero, her tune changes and she tries to help him. Finally, Margaret is the wife of a Scottish farmer who invites Richard into their home. She flirts with him through the night, enraging her husband, and helps Richard continue to avoid the police. Role will require strong German, British, and Scottish dialect work. The Clowns - (M/F, Various) The two clowns serve as the rest of the 150+ characters in the show. To attempt to list them all here would be folly; strong and varying dialect skills and even stronger comedic chemistry are required. The clowns are not limited by gender or age (both as characters and performers, to clarify); however, a quick step and strong arm are helpful, as there are many instances where the clowns may have to double as our fourth-wall-shattering stage crew.
