WELL, WE'VE GOT THEATER, RIGHT HERE IN
RICHTER PARK.....
Season auditions have take place and casting is in the process of being completed. Thanks to everyone who auditioned!
Whether it’s a sizzling bit of “Le Jazz Hot” in Paris, the lilting strains of “My Darlin’ Eileen” in New York's Greenwich Village, or the rousing sound of “76 Trombones” in Iowa's River City, Musicals at Richter’s 2008 season is off to a great start and we invite you to be a part of our 24th season under the stars.
The main stage offerings include "Victor/Victoria," the 1995 stage version of the wildly popular 1982 film of the same name; "Wonderful Town," Betty Comden, Adolph Green and Leonard Bernstein’s quirky and comic valentine to life, love and adventure in NYC, (most recently on Broadway in 2003 with Donna Murphy); and Meredith Willson’s all-time crowd pleaser about small-town America, “The Music Man.”
Fairy Tale Theater opens its 10th season of Saturday morning performances in July. Director Elyse Jasensky, also known as Mother Goose, has put the finishing touches on her original adaptations of classic tales, which include Jack & the Beanstalk, The Frog Princess, The Princess & the Pea/Puss in Boots, and Alice in Wonderland. These sparkling, interactive one-hour shows are performed by a dynamic ensemble of young actors on the grounds of Danbury's Wooster School.
Want to be a part of this magical place under the stars? We invite you to join as a member, bring a group to the show, volunteer your time and talents, make a financial contribution, take an ad in the program, become a show sponsor...the possiblities are limitless. Won't you help? Please explore our website and see what interests you!
We look forward to seeing you in Summer of 2008! Night and day, we've got the stars!
Sincerely,
Joyce Northrop, Artistic Director and Andy Salom, President and all the members of the Musicals at Richter Board, along with our 2008 Season Directors Donald Birely, Kyle Minor and Elyse Jasensky
