THE INVISIBLE THEATRE The Invisible Theatre (IT) of Tucson, a 501(c)(3) organization, is dedicated to producing quality theatre and arts education experiences for all facets of the community in an intimate setting that showcases local professional talent and guest artists. IT takes its name from the invisible energy that flows between a performer and audience, creating the magic of theatre. Started in 1971 as an arena for local playwrights, the theatre has expanded its programs to include adaptations of classics and recent Off-Broadway plays and musicals, while continuing to encourage new playwrights through both full productions and stage readings. Under the leadership of Managing Artistic Director Susan Claassen, Associate Artistic Director James Blair, and Associate Producer Cathy Johnson, IT is strongly committed to community service and outreach programs. The company's current season includes a six play Main Stage season, many special events, Project Pastime – an educational theatre program for the mentally challenged including a video workbook, and seminars that encourage community dialogue. The Invisible Theatre, the recipient of the first Arizona Theatre Association Award for Best Producing Theatre Company, is a member of the Theatre Communications Group and has long enjoyed both local and national recognition for its strong leadership role in the arts community. Productions take place in an intimate 80-seat converted laundry building. IT celebrates this season with an even greater commitment to professionalism, artistic excellence, accessibility, freedom of expression, diverse programming and creative challenge – thus making the Invisible Theatre a very visible force in Tucson's cultural community. 2 ABOUT SHEAR MADNESS CREATORS MARILYN ABRAMS (Cranberry Productions), original Co-producer, and BRUCE JORDAN (Cranberry Productions), original Co-producer/Director, are the owners and creators of SHEAR MADNESS, the longest-running non-musical play in American theater history. These two New York actors anticipated the trend for interactive theater and acquired the world (excepting German language) stage, film and television rights to a murder mystery originally titled Scherenschnitt, written by German playwright Paul Portner. In 1978 the play made its debut in the U.S. in a summer stock production in Lake George, New York. Mr. Jordan directed and created the role of Tony Whitcomb, salon proprietor, and Ms. Abrams created the role of Barbara DeMarco, the gum-chewing manicurist. This exuberant duo oversees the SHEAR MADNESS productions in Boston and Washington, D.C., while serving as advisers to companies in cities as diverse as Rome, Athens, Budapest, San Diego, Mexico City, Fort Lauderdale, Johannesburg, Lisbon, Tel Aviv, Buenos Aires and Madrid. While each occasionally takes time out to pursue other stage and film work, both make frequent visits to SHEAR MADNESS cities where Mr. Jordan maintains the artistic quality of the productions and Ms. Abrams handles the sales and marketing. The 35-year-old Boston company is the longest-running play in American theater history with the Washington, D.C. production at the John F. Kennedy Center running in second place and the Chicago company third. The play has been listed in The Guinness Book of World Records and Boston’s Warrenton Street, location of the historic Charles Playhouse, is officially known as “Shear Madness Alley”. The Chicago company is the third longest running play in the history of the American theatre, completing a Shear Madness Theatrical Triple Crown. Other honors include the Mystery Writers of America Raven Award, The Boston Globe’s Best Comedy of the year, The Chicago Tribune’s Best Play of the Year, Boston’s Elliot Norton Award, The Los Angeles Dramalogue Award, the USO Award for Outstanding Contribution in the Theatrical Arts, and The Philadelphia Daily News’ Best Play of the Year. The play was awarded a special citation at the prestigious Elliot Norton Awards in Boston in 2005 for 25 years of hair-raising hi-jinks that have kept dozens of Boston actors employed and taught a generation of performers the art of comic timing. In October of 1997, Ms. Abrams and Mr. Jordan were the recipients of the Charlie Chaplin Comedy Award, given by the National Comedy Hall of Fame, as the creators of SHEAR MADNESS, the first play ever so honored. In June of 2014 the French production, Dernier Coup de Ciseaux, received the prestigious Moliere Award for Best Comedy. ABOUT THE DIRECTOR SUSAN CLAASSEN is celebrating her 40th anniversary with IT. As Managing Artistic Director, she has produced over 390 productions and directed over 90 including HANDLE WITH CARE. Suz was nominated for the 2011 LA Stage Alliance Ovation Award and BroadwayWorld LA Award as Best Actress for her portrayal of Edith Head in A CONVERSATION WITH EDITH HEAD (www.edithhead.biz). She was most recently seen as Olive in IT’s OLIVE AND THE BITTER HERBS. Suz was selected as one of Arizona’s “48 Most Intriguing Women”, is a member of the League of Professional Theatre Women and has been a clown in the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade since 2001. She has been a proud member of Actors’ Equity Association since 1969 and dedicates her work to the living memory of her beloved mother, Goldie. 3 ABOUT THE CAST ERIC ANSON (Eddie) is making his second appearance on the IT stage and IT is thrilled to have him! He was featured in last season’s OLIVE AND THE BITTER HERBS. Eric has been acting in Tucson theater for over 20 years. Some of his favorite recent performances include playing Ethan in THE ALTRUISTS, Kanaka in PSYCHO BEACH PARTY, Ken in THE FIFTH OF JULY, Andre in THE DINNER PARTY, Joe in KILLER JOE, Donner in THE EIGHT REINDEER MONOLOGUES, Knee Pad in ROBOTS VS FAKE ROBOTS, Michael Starkwedder in THE UNEXPECTED GUEST, and Rocky in THE ROCKY HORROR PICTURE SHOW. In addition, Eric has performed many murder mysteries with Act One and children’s theatre (which he loves) with A.C.T. and Altogether Theater. By day, Dr. Anson is a respected computer scientist! JESSE BOONE (Mikey) returns to the IT stage after appearing in HANDLE WITH CARE. He also recently performed in LES MISERABLES with Arizona Onstage Productions and QUEST OF THE CAVEMAN with the Great American Playhouse. Jesse also acts in short films, full features, and has done several commercials. He graduates in May from the University of Arizona with degrees in Theatre and Communication. Jesse previously studied acting at the New York Conservatory for Dramatic Arts, and he will attend the International Academy of Film and Television in Los Angeles starting in the fall of 2015. ROBERT ENCILA (Tony) is the founding artistic director of Studio Connections, a non-profit arts organization dedicated to excellence in performing arts education. A veteran certified teacher of theatre and music, Robert manages to take an occasional break from the studio/classroom to perform on local and national stages. He has performed off-Broadway and maintains a regular stint as a soloist with A Jazz Nativity at the Birdland and BB King’s. Robert has appeared in numerous productions with Borderlands Theater and Arizona Theater Company and is a proud member of Actors’ Equity Association. SHEAR MADNESS marks his final performance in Arizona as he prepares to relocate Studio Connections to his native Philippines. LORI HUNT (Barbara) is delighted to be back at IT once again for SHEAR MADNESS, having opened this season with A KID LIKE JAKE. She was last onstage at Live Theatre Workshop with the one-woman show, 9 PARTS OF DESIRE, and she can also currently be seen in local commercials buying Buicks.

The feast kicked off with the statue of La Madonna Del Soccorso Di Sciacca carried in solemn procession to the Christopher Columbus Waterfront Park, accompanied by the Italian-American Band and the North End Italian Band for the annual blessing of the Boston fishing waters. The weekend included the Sorrento Cheese building contest, live entertainment and great food! The grand finale of the weekend was the statue of the Madonna returning to North Street after the day long procession. She was greeted by a crowd of enthusiastic spectators waiting for the Famous Flight of the Angel. This year’s flying angel was Vitianna Mary D’Amico (shown in photo) with side angels Diana Karamourtopoulos and Caira Rose D’Amico. (Photos by Ross Photography) (More photos on Page 7) The Madonna Della Cava Feast was celebrated on August 7th through the 9th in Boston’s North End.
