Bass Violin FROM THE PRODUCERS ... We saw "DAMESAT SEA" performed in Hawaii many years ago, and fell in love with it. We agreed that. if ever given the chance, we would produce the show. West Valley Light Opera gave us the chance, and wejumped at it. "DAMESAT SEA" is a take-off on the 1930 Bubsy Berkeley musical extravaganzas. If you notice a little bit of Dick Powell, Ruby Keeler and Joan Blondell in some of the performers, don't worry ...you're all right. It's a little bit of fluff...a little meaningless fun from all thewonderful people who gave us all the wonderful "little bits of fluff' way back then. Sit back and enjoy...laugh when you want to...applaud when you want to, and ifyou feel alump forming in your throat. think ofit as just a memory of good times gone by.

He has choreographed "Fiddler on the Roof', "Anything Goes", "Godspell", "Sugar", "Grease", "Annie" and 6 Dance Concerts between 1979 and 1985. He has danced in "Barnum", "Pippin", "Seven Brides for Seven Brothers", "Marne", "Cabaret" ... and the list goes on and on. Brien has studied dancing with Arthur Murray, Benny Smith, Gail Benedict. Mary Ann Norris and Marie Stinnett He has performed in "AVisit to a Small Planet", "Plaza Suite", "The Crucible" and "Bus Stop". If that's not enough, in his spare time he is becoming a gourmet cook. And, Brien was pleasantly surprised In this show. He says this Is the first time he has had a costume to fit his lanky frame ... before opening night, that Is. DON SCOTI - Hennesey The versatile Mr. Scott has worked with many theatre groups In this area. His experience Includes the first production to grace the stage at the Saratoga Civic Theatre in 1965. He played one of his favorite roles, that ofBlff, In "Death of a Salesman". Due to extreme perseverance and hard work, he earned promotions from Ensign (Pulver), In the San Jose Theater Guild's 1961 production of "Mr. Roberts", all the way to Captain In last year's production of the same shor.vbyThe Community Players. Don has also appeared In ''How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying", and "Kiss Me Kate", for WVLO, as well as "Guys and Dolls", "Funny Girl", ''The Boy Friend" and "Fiddler on the Roof' for other local groups.

BOB MILLS - The Captain After being one of the Muleteers In "Man of La Mancha", the sheriff in "Showboat", a gangster in "Sugar", and the bartender in "My Fair Lady", Bob Is playtng his first major role as the lovable Captain in this production. Actually, this is Bob's seventh show for us. He has the honor of being the only performer to have been awarded the Captain's Cape more than once. Bob and his lovely wife Irene live in Santa Clara He was recently elected to the Board of Directors and vows to keep WVLO the best community theater group in Northern California THE GIRLS IN THE BAND Front row: Nancy We1chly, Diane Reynolds Back Row: Wanda Saxton, Elly Weiser MARGIE IANG - Mona Kent This vivacious performer is a newcomer to WVLOand we are very glad she joined us as the star of "Dames At Sea". Our lovely "Mona" is a native of the Bay Area and has a multitude of credits as performer, choreographer, director and producer. You might say Margie really knows theatre from the ground up, having founded a successful theatrical group in Alameda known as the Cabaret Theatre. Married and mother of two sons, Margie owns and operates her own secretarial service in Fremont. She has most recently been seen in the SDG production of 'The Boys From Syracuse" and was the featured soloist with the San Jose Symphony Band in their "Pops" concert last year in Los Gatos. WILLIAMS, WILSON - Dick Scott. or Scotty, or William or AH .. or Bill, or Hey You, as his mother calls him, returns once again to our stage, tripping over the lights, fantastically, You saw him, hopefulJy, in our production of "Sugar", looking tremulously at the daybed, and, most recently in WVLO's last production of "My Fair Lady", looking awesomely at Eliza He is a tireless performer, a wonderful dancer, and a marvelous actor. Just ask him ... hell tell you, Actually, his ambition is STILL to become a mild-mannered reporter for a major metropolitan newspaper. We have sent his resume to the Daily Planet, and hope to hear from them before this show year is over. There are quite a few of us in WVLOthat have seen him develop from his 1971 role as a child in "Fiddler on the Roof', to the polished performer he is today.

  • Bernadette Peters Throughout Her Illustrious Career, Tony Award-Winning Actress Bernadette Peters Has Dazzled Audiences and Crit
    Bernadette Peters Throughout her illustrious career, Tony Award-winning actress Bernadette Peters has dazzled audiences and critics with her performances on stage and television, in concert, and on recordings. She recently starred on Broadway in the Stephen Sondheim / James Goldman critically acclaimed production of Follies, following a successful run at the Kennedy Center. Prior to that, she starred opposite Elaine Stritch in the Stephen Sondheim / Hugh Wheeler Tony Award- winning masterpiece, A Little Night Music. In 2012, Bernadette was honored with her third Tony Award, The Isabelle Stevenson Special Award that acknowledges an individual from the theatre community who has made a substantial contribution of volunteered time and effort on behalf of one or more humanitarian, social service or charitable organizations. Recently, Peters added author and songwriter to her roster of achievements with her debut children’s book, Broadway Barks, aptly named after the organization she co-founded with good friend, Mary Tyler Moore. The book landed on the New York Times Bestseller list shortly after publication. The organization’s annual star-studded animal adoption event takes place in Shubert Alley in the heart of NYC’s theater district, and benefits over 20 animal shelters in and around the New York City area. The book package includes a CD recording of an original song written and sung by the author. Her second children’s book, Stella is a Star features yet another of her original songs, of which all proceeds from the sale of both books go to Broadway Barks!. In November 2009, Peters performed a special one-night-only concert in New York City at the Minskoff Theatre, called “Bernadette Peters: A Special Concert for Broadway Barks Because Broadway Cares”, which benefitted both Broadway Barks and Broadway Cares/ Equity Fights AIDS.

  • Vacaya Selects Kristin Chenoweth As Godmother
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Media Contact: Patrick Gunn, VACAYA CMO +1.310.633.4097 [email protected] VACAYA SELECTS KRISTIN CHENOWETH AS GODMOTHER And Announces All-Star “DIVAS” Lineup of Katharine McPhee, Leslie Jordan, Alex Newell, and Lesli Margherita for their August 2019 Ptown Cruise New York, NY: May 20, 2019 - Lights, Camera, Godmother! VACAYA has announced Kristin Chenoweth as godmother of their inaugural cruise in August 2019 and for the LGBT+ venture overall. Along with the announcement of their godmother, VACAYA announced a slate of headline DIVA entertainers who will perform onboard their August Ptown Cruise. Chenoweth as VACAYA Godmother: It's a longstanding nautical tradition for cruise ships to have a godmother, selected to bring good luck and protection to the vessel. VACAYA will take that one step further by elevating Ms. Chenoweth to godmother of the entire company and declaring her “Queen of the High Cs.” Chenoweth will perform during VACAYA’s Launch Party onboard Celebrity Summit, and will toast the official introduction of the company to the LGBT+ community. 2000 LGBT+ passengers and their straight ally friends will be aboard Celebrity Summit as the ship departs NYC, hits the high seas, and sails to Provincetown to kick off the 2019 Carnival celebration. Emmy and Tony Award-winning actress and singer Kristin Chenoweth’s career spans film, television, voiceover, and stage. Chenoweth is beloved by the LGBT+ community and was chosen, VACAYA CEO Randle Roper said, for “her shared philanthropic spirit and for being such a staunch ally to LGBT+ people.” Through her foundation, the Kristin Chenoweth Arts & Education Fund, Kristin cultivates and celebrates young artistic expression by enriching children’s lives through the power of education, entertainment, and experience.

New York, NY, December 7, 2015—Encores! Artistic Director Jack Viertel today announced the creative teams for New York City Center’s 2016 Encores! season. J. Bernard Calloway, Chuck Cooper, Marva Hicks, Carly Hughes, LaChanze, Norm Lewis, Forrest McClendon, and J.D. Webster will star in Vernon Duke and John Latouche’s jazz‐filled fable Cabin in the Sky, running for seven performances at City Center from February 10—14. The 1940 musical will be directed by Tony Award winner Ruben Santiago‐Hudson with choreography by Camille A. Brown. Originally produced in 1940, Cabin in the Sky followed Porgy and Bess in celebrating African‐American music and dance traditions. The musical tells the story of “Little Joe” Jackson, a charming ne’er‐do‐well who dies in a saloon brawl and is given six months on earth to prove his worth to the Lord’s General (Norm Lewis) and his long‐suffering wife Petunia (LaChanze), while resisting the temptations of the Devil’s Head Man (Chuck Cooper). Duke’s score, featuring the jazz hit “Taking a Chance on Love,” will be restored to its original glory for Encores!, thanks to the generous support of The Joseph S. and Diane H. Steinberg Broadway Musical Restoration Fund. The original orchestrations for Cabin in the Sky no longer exist and will be recreated by Tony Award winner Jonathan Tunick.

  • Chita Rivera
    We l c o m e t o Dear Theatregoers... After the smashing success of this summer’s remarkable Shakespeare Festival, plus Moonlight and Magnolias and The Lady with All the Answers, we might well be inclined to give a huge sigh of relief and accomplish- ment and relax. But that’s hardly going to be possible, given the double-bill we offer at the moment. To welcome my beloved colleagues Terrence McNally and Graciela Daniele back to this theatre is a consummation devoutly to be wished, since he last graced our halls with The Full Monty; and she hasn’t worked her magic since The Snow Ball. But that they’ve come to celebrate the irresistibly dynamic Chita Rivera: The Dancer’s Life, rolling out the events of the our industry’s signature dance icon, not only makes us proud, but initiates lines at the box office any theatre administrator weeps to see. And just next door, in the crucible we call the Cassius Carter Centre Stage is Associate Artist Dakin Matthews, plumbing today’s headlines concerning the church’s most devastating moral crisis with The Prince of L.A., a witty and wise work he not only wrote, but in which he plays its central character, guided by the sure hand of his most astute critic and talented wife, Anne McNaughton. This year past, and the one ahead for all the world seem to be the incarnation of “the good old days!” We are thrilled you are here to share the rewards with us. JACK O’BRIEN Artistic Director Welcome to the first play of our Winter 2005/6 Season.
