Rehearsal Crash, with the cast of Waterville Playshop's Godspell September 9-12

Come sing about love as Playshop presents Godspell!

Waterville  Playshop is set to make a return to live musical theatre this summer!  We invite you to come help us make something special by coming to see  the new revival version of Godspell, a dramatized story built from  parables found in the Book of Matthew. We'll be bringing this wonderful  show to life on September 9th - 12th, and we'd love for you to be a part  of the incredible experience!  A perfect message for our society right  now, the story describes for people of any and all faiths Jesus'  messages of kindness, tolerance and love.  Those ideals come vibrantly  to life through storytelling, dancing, and songs of all genres; it  literally has something for everybody!

Godspell  was the first major musical theatre composed by Stephen Schwartz, the  same man who composed Wicked, Pippin, and Children of Eden, among  others.  This show took the world by storm, leading to a movie and now  new revival adaptation.  It includes such beloved tunes as “Day by Day,”  "All for the Best," "All Good Gifts," and "By My Side."

Director  Michael Devon Barlos is assisted by Jerri Lee.  Joelle Stiles is the  music director, and Becky Beebe is the choreographer.  Danny Carder  plays the role of Jesus, and he leads a stellar cast of musical  disciples, ready and eager to tell their story.  This is one show you  truly don’t want to miss.

Performances  are scheduled for Thursday, Friday, and Saturday, September 9 through  11, at 8 pm, and Sunday, September 12 at 2:30, at the Maumee Indoor  Theatre. Tickets are on sale now at www.watervilleplayshop.org. Adult tickets are $17, and student/senior tickets are $15. They will also be available at the door.

GODSPELL is produced with special permission from Music Theatre International (MTI), New York, NY.

and encourages and promotes a casting policy without regard to race or ethnicity.

Actors Collaborative Toledo (ACT) is a 501 (c) (3) nonprofit organization formed in August 2013 with the staged reading of "Walter Cronkite is Dead" by Joe Calarco at the historic Mansion View Inn.  Since that time our company has performed at The Toledo Museum of Art, Trinity Episcopal Church, The Village Players Theatre, The Collingwood Arts Center, The Moxie Live!, Delightful Art with Dee, Pam's Corner, Owens Community College, The Franciscan Center at Lourdes University and The Center for Performing Arts at the University of Toledo.

ACT is a group of local theatre artists dedicated to bringing contemporary theatre to Toledo, with a focus on the importance of new and seldom performed plays, thus educating audiences to the power of live theatre. Through collaborative and fundraising efforts with other non­profits around town, we are bringing awareness to important social issues.  We have formed collaborations with other theatres in the area to promote a sense of community; including The Village Players Theatre, Cutting Edge Theatre Company, The Toledo Repertoire Theatre, Glacity Theatre Collective and Hawk and Handsaw Theatre.

Company members have served as mentors for local students as they prepared for their senior acting projects, as well as participated in summer day camp programs.   ACT also has collaborated with students from the Drama Society at Lourdes University.   ACT has produced benefits for other charitable organizations including: Music & Arts at Trinity Episcopal Church ("The Testament of Mary"), Episcopal Relief and Development ("Speak Truth to Power"), The Zepf Center ("'night, Mother"), Equality Toledo ("Standing on Ceremony: the Gay Marriage Plays", "Mr. Charles; currently of Palm Beach" and "Gay Shorts"), The Perrysburg Chorale ("The Christians") Jewish Family Services ("The Velocity of Autumn") and the Ella P. Stewart Academy for Girls ("Pretty Fire").

The Toledo Rep's  Paul Causman sits down with Stage Door to talk about The Rep's standard of excellence for every show. We ask him about the upcoming season, and of course, his iconic role of Ebeneezer Scrooge, and The Rep's role in the Toledo Community.   The mission of the Toledo Repertoire Theatre, founded in 1933, is to educate, entertain and serve Toledo and the surrounding region through live theatre.

If you are interested in everything being worn on stage, Kelly McBane has done it all. Everything from the design of the costume, to the technical application of the outfit, and even the makeup to compliment the costume. Kelly breaks down her life experience doing all things related to costumes in the entertainment industry. As well as, her passion for teaching the next generation of costume designers today. 

Today, we sit down with Waterville Playshop’s Shauna Newbold, as she talks about WPS’s passion to make their theater a true family, and community experience. 70 years and still going strong!
