The Chagrin Falls Studio Orchestra and the Chagrin Valley Little Theater have been partnering for nearly a decade to fill that void with their joint concert events, performing songs from great musicals with some of the area's finest theatrical singers backed by a live 30-piece orchestra on stage. Their popular partnership continues this Fall as CFSO maestro Stephen A. Eva and CVLT director Don Edelman present "Right Down Broadway" at Chagrin Valley Little Theatre on Friday, October 14 and Saturday, October 15 at 8 PM, and Sunday, October 16 at 2 PM. The family-friendly show features music from shows new and old, including /My Fair Lady, Wicked, Evita, Mary Poppins, Guys and Dolls,/ and many others, with the vocal talents of Ben Merold, Ron Davis, Gene Karlen, Greta Rothman, Colleen O'Leary, Libby Merriman, Amy Hesslein-Grant and Sharon Lloyd. Tickets to the event are $25 and are available at www.CVLT.org or by phone, 1-6 p.m. Monday-Saturday at 440-247-8955. "It's uncommon to hear a full-sized orchestra doing these kinds of film and Broadway arrangements in such an intimate venue," explains Eva, referring to CVLT's 262-seat main house at 40 River Street in historic Chagrin Falls Village. "Audiences will really be able to appreciate these scores in a new way, seeing and hearing the orchestra right up close. And these singers will knock your socks off!" "Right Down Broadway" is sponsored in part by The Dodero Foundation (Francesca DiBlasi), Stratos Wealth Partners (Phillip Rini), Skoda Minotti (Pat Carney), Design To Serve (Don Edelman), and Ganley Volkswagen/Subaru of Bedford (Michael Friedman). CVLT is generously funded by Cuyahoga County residents through Cuyahoga Arts and Culture and supported by the Ohio Arts Council.
