*TOP 12 reasons to see 1 of the last 4 performances of TUCK EVERLASTING* *12. IT ISN'T AS FAR AS YOU THINK.* Contrary to rumor, French Creek Theatre is not in Indiana. It is 15 minutes or so west of Lakewood. *11, 10, 9. THE REVIEWS!* Cleveland Scene <https://www.clevescene.com/scene-and-heard/archives/2019/07/23/tuck-everlasting-finds-heart-and-home-at-sheffields-french-creek-theatre> The Cleveland Jewish News <https://www.clevelandjewishnews.com/news/even-time-can-t-touch-french-creek-s-tuck-everlasting/article_b4f5c740-ac0b-11e9-8c4e-63767686755b.html> CoolCleveland <https://coolcleveland.com/2019/07/theater-review-tuck-everlasting-french-creek-theatre-by-laura-kennelly/> *8, 7, 6, 5, 4. OUR AUDIENCES ARE LOVING IT!* "If you live on the east side of Cleveland, French Creek Theater is very far away. If you live on the west side, it’s still far, but not a bad drive. If you live in Avon, Ohio, it’s no travel at all. But, no matter where you live, even if it’s Pittsburgh or Chicago, you should make the trip to see Tuck Everlasting. Sharon and I saw this musical this past weekend and were both wildly entertained and moved to tears. Fred Sternfeld <https://www.facebook.com/fsternfeld?__tn__=%2CdK-R-R&eid=ARC879SeSK1gRTteb6ZPyEnpPEmcYJVGFN7W-0DnCTRDA96by9QjnoSdUI2GbilZosZ8u-de2lg7ThS-&fref=mentions> has put together one of the most stellar casts you’re likely to see off-off-off Broadway (so far off Broadway, it’s in Ohio). But, Fred, with his reputation preceding him, and his experience as an actual Broadway producer, has the ability to attract the best talent in the area (one of them even drives 2 hours from Youngstown!), cast them perfectly, and direct them to find the heart, soul, and truth of the story, bringing out their best performances. This is the case with the funny and tender-sweet musical Tuck Everlasting. It only runs for one more weekend, so, no matter where you live, get your tickets while any are still available, and make the trip. You won’t be sorry." Noah Budin "seriously one of the best shows I have seen! Absolutely AMAZING!!" "a fantastic performance!" "I have attended many great community theater performances, but have never had a cast evoke such emotion in me. I was smiling through the first act, cried during the second act and realized once the lights came on at the end I never stood because I was in such awe of what I had just watched." Jessica Cameron "Saw the show Saturday night...really wonderful and worth the drive!" Carol Pribble "Tuck Everlasting at French Creek was just a beautiful, touching show that pulls at your heartstrings every which way. Under the masterful direction of Fred Sternfeld <https://www.facebook.com/fsternfeld?__tn__=%2CdK-R-R&eid=ARBaQGwMuw5diR9FC3sl1-kP4TjVPOlrxxrdy5qaigs_3rX_qZ65-1cUSLVA2FG44ppnwv3q7KYvFWaa&fref=mentions> who once again shows why he is one of the best directors in NE Ohio. You will be spellbound.

And a stunning performance by Calista Zajac that is worth the price of the ticket; she was a student of Fred’s at HBTI. Stephen Sandham was perfection as Jesse Tuck. Do not miss this show! However do bring tissues." Sue Cohen "If you haven't done so already, GO SEE "TUCK EVERLASTING!!!!" The talent is amazing and the entire show is too! The music directed by David Williams and his musicians is also top notch !!!! GO! SEE! NOW! Kenn Rothman *3. YOU PROBABLY DON'T KNOW THIS SHOW AND YOU MAY WANT TO DO IT AT YOUR THEATRE.* Seriously, this is a great musical that ran for far too short of a time on Broadway. It was too intimate for a big Broadway house but is perfect for small to medium size venues. *2.
