by Richard 15 Nov '17

15 Nov '17

Hi All I want to thank Theatre 815, the Cast, and the everyone who help with getting Blue Moon to the stage. A special thanks to the director Dawna Kornick. She promised me over 6 years ago that she would bring Blue Moon to life at Theatre. She overcame many obstacles but never gave up. Here is the link to the You Tube video of the October 13, 2017 performance at Theatre 815. Thanks to their hard work and dedication, I will be able to improve the musical. I am more interested in improving Blue Moon so it is available royalty free on a limited basis to any theatre interested in performing the musical. Enjoy,Richard Musical Blue Moon | | | | | | | | | | | Blue Moon Musical The musical Blue Moon is a timeless love story for all ages woven within melodic, poetic and beautiful music. In... | | | |

And thanks to the magic of high-definition camera work, you can see this production here in Cleveland Heights, at the Cedar Lee Theater, as if you were in the 10th row center. Follies, set in New York, 1971. There’s a party on the stage of the Weismann Theatre. Tomorrow the iconic building will be demolished. Thirty years after their final performance, the Follies girls gather to have a few drinks, sing a few songs and lie about themselves. Tracie Bennett, Janie Dee and Imelda Staunton play the magnificent Follies in this dazzling new production. Featuring a cast of 37 and an orchestra of 21, it’s directed by Dominic Cooke (The Comedy of Errors). With a big cast, Follies isn’t produced as often as perhaps other Sondheim musicals, reason enough to see this one. But it also gives this newsletter the opportunity to highlight the fact that Cleveland Cinemas often brings to the Cedar Lee Theater high-definition video performances from London’s West End, Russia’s Bolshoi Ballet and just recently added, the Metropolitan Opera. Talk about sitting in that 15th row center seat, these theatrical and musical performances are breathtakingly world class.

Final Weekend for "A Few Good Men" at Hudson Players
by Durbin, Mark H. 15 Nov '17

15 Nov '17

Seats Still Available for Last Weekend of "A Few Good Men" at Hudson Players Make plans to see the final performances of "A Few Good Men" at the Hudson Players this weekend. Showtime is 8:00 p.m. on Friday, November 17th and Saturday, November 18th at the Barlow Community Center, 41 South Oviatt Street in Hudson. . A reviewer from the Cleveland Jewish News was impressed with the intense military courtroom drama written by award-winning Aaron Sorkin, saying: "The court is now in session at Barlow Community Center. All rise, for this production of 'A Few Good Men' deserves a standing ovation....Director Brian Westerley has crafted a dramatic and intriguing production whose success relies heavily on the believability of its characters. Fortunately, Hudson Players have no shortage of wonderful actors who bring to life the people behind the uniforms...." After a successful run as a stage play on Broadway, this intense drama made its way to the movie screen starring Tom Cruise, Jack Nicholson and Demi Moore. Two Marines are on trial for complicity in the death of a fellow Marine at Guantanamo Bay in Cuba. The Navy lawyer, a callow young man more interested in softball games than the case, expects a plea bargain and a cover up of what really happened. Prodded by a female member of his defense team, the lawyer eventually makes a valiant effort to defend his clients and, in so doing, puts the military mentality and the Marine code of honor on trial. On the opposing side is Lt. Colonel Nathan Jessep, a harsh Marine with something to hide, who sees it as his duty to do whatever it takes to protect his men and his country, with a final courtroom collision not to be missed. The cast includes: Nicolas Peters, of Kent, as Navy Lt. Daniel Kaffee, the young defense attorney; Sean Donovan, of Akron, as Navy Lt. Sam Weinberg, assistant defense counsel; Charli Harbingreither, of Sagamore Hills, as Navy Lt. Commander Joanne Galloway, part of the defense team; Mitch Manthey, of Medina, as Lt. Colonel Nathan Jessep, Marine base commander; Mark Durbin, of Twinsburg, as Captain Matthew Markinson, Marine executive officer; Brian Bishop, of Stow, as Marine Lt. James Kendrick; John Sturdivant, of Ellet, as Marine Lance Corporal Harold Dawson and James Trombka, of Tallmadge, as Marine Private Louden Downey who are on trial for murder; Adam Yankay, of Hudson, as Lt. Jack Ross, prosecuting counsel; Jen Matas, of Kent, as Judge Julia Randolph; Roger Parker, of Northfield Center as Navy Captain Isaac Whitaker and Sergeant of Arms; Nathan Hill, of Hudson, as Private William Santiago/lawyer/orderly and an MP; Chris Macchione, of Hudson, as Doctor Walter Stone; John Peters, of Cuyahoga Falls, as Marine Corporal Owen Howard; and Dave Sherman, of Fairlawn, as a lawyer/Hammaker/Jessep's aide and an MP. To purchase tickets for A Few Good Men go to www.hudsonplayers.com<http://www.hudsonplayers.com>, or call the Hudson Players box office at (330) 655-8522 for more information. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The information contained in this message is intended only for the personal and confidential use of the recipient(s) named above.
