IMMEDIATE RELEASE: The Millennial Theatre Company to Perform Sondheim's Into the Woods Starting This Weekend!
by The Millennial Theatre Company 26 Sep '22

26 Sep '22

*FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASESeptember 30, 2022 * *The Millennial Theatre Company To Perform Into the Woods at The Hopewell Theatre Beginning This Weekend!* YOUNGSTOWN, OH – The Millennial Theatre Company (MTC) will perform Stephen Sondheim's *Into the Woods* at The Hopewell Theatre, Friday September 30 and Saturday October 1 at 7:30pm, Sunday October 2 at 2:00pm, Friday October 7 and Saturday October 8 at 7:30pm, Sunday October 9 at 2:00pm. The story of *Into the Woods* follows a Baker and his wife, who wish to have a child; Cinderella, who wishes to attend the King's Festival; and Jack, who wishes his cow would give milk. When the Baker and his wife learn that they cannot have a child because of a Witch's curse, the two set off on a journey to break the curse. Everyone's wish is granted, but the consequences of their actions return to haunt them later with disastrous results. *Into the Woods* is currently enjoying a sell-out, multi-extension run on Broadway, and MTC is excited to bring the show to Youngstown as well. "We applied for the rights just a week before the Broadway transfer was announced, so we are very excited to be able to bring the show to Youngstown audiences at the same time the show is sold-out nightly in New York," says Joe Asente, Artistic Director of MTC. "We really wanted to do a Sondheim musical this season after his passing late last year, but we figured everyone would have one of his shows on their season, so we announced our season without it. Once everyone else released their seasons, and no one had a single Sondheim musical slated for the stage this year, we knew this was our time. Later, once we saw the massive success the show is having on Broadway right now, we knew we made the right call." Asente believes this is one of the most timely musicals MTC could present, given our current world situation, "This is a show that helps us process strong emotions, just as any good fairytale story would. Every time this show has been revived professionally, it has been connected to some sort of large, life-altering event in society. When it premiered on Broadway in the 80s, that was the AIDS crisis. When it was revived in 2002, that was September 11. And now, in its 2022 revival, and our production, that is the COVID-19 pandemic. In our story, our characters are forced to face a giant who is causing mass-destruction in society. This show is both a cautionary tale and a way to help us process our own 'giants' in our own lives." The cast includes Sarahh Kinser, Courtney Martin, Jacob Nash, Natalina Kazimir, Halina Bakeris, George Maillis, Daniel Gordejev, Emilio Santiago, Karlina Wander, Ben Doss, Tommy DeLuca, Roz Blystone, Ty Hanes, Samantha Hudzik, Hannah Stephens, Ryan Stewart, Daniel Chiaberta, Regina Rees, Briana Matijevic, Aubrey Vernon and Michelle Jalbert with Direction and Music Direction by Joe Asente. Tickets are $20 and are available online at www.millennialtheatre.org.

Berko review: AMERICAN MARIACHI @ Cleveland Play House
by Roy Berko 25 Sep '22

25 Sep '22

*•••••••••••••••••••••••••••* *Capsule judgment: AMERICAN MARIACHI allows audiences to experience a telenovela, a Hispanic story-telling technique, and be exposed to mariachi music, while sharing a tale of universal angst. The CPH production is well staged and performed. This is a fine evening of theatre. * *To read the entire review go to: *https://royberkinfo.blogspot.com/ *To read the capsule judgements of the other Cleveland reviewers go to: * *www.clevelandtheaterreviews.com* <http://www.clevelandtheaterreviews.com/> *••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••*

Cheers to the Cleveland Play House for beginning the 2022-2023 season with the upbeat (literally) *American Mariachi*.
