PRESS RELEASE for IMMEDIATE RELEASE Friday, October 7, 2011 CONTACT: Patrick Finlon, Marketing Director 315-443-2636 Or Pjfinlon@Syr.Edu PRESS RELEASE FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Friday, October 7, 2011 CONTACT: Patrick Finlon, Marketing Director 315-443-2636 or [email protected] Syracuse Stage’s The Boys Next Door Finds Comedy and Compassion in a Group Home for People with Developmental Disabilities (Syracuse, NY)—Meet Arnold Wiggins. He’s basically a nervous person. He lives with Lucien P. Smith who fancies very big books, and Norman who works in the doughnut shop, and Barry who has schizophrenia and has convinced himself that he is a golf pro. In addition to an apartment, these guys share a caseworker named Jack who, despite his genuine concern for his clients, is on the verge of total burn-out. The Boys Next Door is a gentle comedy from the late 80s set in a group home for people who are developmentally disabled. As playwright Tom Griffin reveals the daily struggles of his characters to make sense of their world and their places in it, he reminds us to consider how much we take for granted every day. The Boys Next Door is very funny and very touching. Running October 19 through November 6, The Boys Next Door will be performed in the Archbold Theatre at Syracuse Stage, 820 East Genesee Street. Tickets range $18-$50 and are available at the Syracuse Stage Box Office, 315-443-3275 or www.SyracuseStage.org. The presenting sponsor for The Boys Next Door is The Dorothy and Marshall M. Reisman Foundation. Sponsors are Syracuse University Humanities Center, POMCO Group, Burton Blatt Institute, and Arc of Onondaga (celebrating their 60th anniversary). The media sponsor is WRVO. Syracuse Stage’s 2011-2012 season sponsor is The Post-Standard. After a successful 1987 Off-Broadway run, The Boys Next Door was produced at hundreds of theatres around the country and the world, and in 1996 it was made into a movie featuring Nathan Lane. “It’s a fun, funny, and very moving rollercoaster ride of a play that stands the test of time,” said Timothy Bond, Director and Syracuse Stage Producing Artistic Director. Set clearly in the 1980s, the play sheds light on the progress that has been made for people with developmental disabilities. “Part of our mission as the region’s premier professional theatre is to tell the stories of people who have been underrepresented in the American culture,” said Bond. “Stories about people with developmental disabilities are rarely ever seen or explored on stage, though they are vital to our community and to so many of our audiences’ lives.” During the rehearsal period, members of the cast visited and shadowed with local organizations that provide services to people with disabilities. “The cast has done amazing 1 research in understanding these characters, and they are incredibly skilled, physically and comedically,” said Bond. “Many of the actors are from Chicago, where you can find a lot of physical style theatre, a big plus for this production.” The ensemble cast is comprised of professional actors from Chicago, New York City, and Central New York. Cast members include Timothy Davis-Reed (SU Drama Professor, best known for his role as White House Press Reporter Mark O’Donnell on The West Wing), Carey Eidel (Executive Director and founding member of Auburn Public Theatre, as Mr. Klemper), Sean Patrick Fawcett (as Norman), Ellis Foster (Black Alliance Theatre Award for Best Actor, as Lucien), Marie Kemp (SU Drama Professor, last seen at Syracuse Stage as Marmee in Little Women), Michael Joseph Mitchell (Artistic Associate at Chicago Dramatists, as Arnold), Alanna Rogers (a recent graduate of SU Drama, as Sheila), Samuel Taylor (last seen at Syracuse Stage in Lookingglass Alice, as Barry), and Demetrios Troy (as Jack, the caseworker). One hour before each performance, except the Wednesday matinee, an actor from the play will lead a 20-minute discussion that’s free and open to all patrons, as part of Stage’s Prologue program. Actors will answer questions and share stories about the process of developing The Boys Next Door at Syracuse Stage. Throughout the run, a number of community partnerships will highlight the work of local organizations that provide services to people who are disabled: Special post-show talk after the 2 p.m. matinee on Oct 30. Speakers: - Peter Blanck, Chairman of the Burton Blatt Institute (BBI) at Syracuse University, an international organization for advancing the civic, economic, and social participation of people with disabilities. - Brian McLane, Strategic Advisor to Syracuse University’s Inclusive Campus Initiative, which involves all aspects of SU’s operations, every school and college, and 10 campuses across four continents. - Stanfort J. Perry, Executive Director of Arc of Onondaga, the largest provider of services to people with developmental disabilities in Onondaga County. - A representative from ARISE, an Independent Living Center (ILC) that promotes the full inclusion of people with disabilities in the community. Stanfort J. Perry, Executive Director of Arc of Onondaga, will speak at 1 p.m. on Wednesday, October 26 in Syracuse Stage’s Sutton Pavilion, as part of Stage’s longstanding Wednesday @ 1 Lecture Series that takes place before Wednesday matinee performances. Onondaga Historical Association, in conjunction with Arc of Onondaga, will offer a panel exhibit in the Coyne Lobby at Syracuse Stage. It will explore the history of Arc on its 60th anniversary plus offer historical background on Syracuse's pioneering role in the mid-19th century directed toward the education of youth with developmental 2 disabilities. The New York State Asylum opened in 1855 on the city's west side and was the first facility built in the United States with that purpose in mind. An art exhibit by UNIQUE, a magazine published by ARISE, will feature work by individuals with disabilities. The exhibit will appear throughout the run of The Boys Next Door at Syracuse Stage in the Sutton Pavilion and Upper Lobby.

  • Elgin Academy's Summer Theater Program Is Excited to Be Hosting
    Elgin Academy’s Summer Theater Program is excited to be hosting educators Rick Hilsabeck and Sarah Pfisterer, award winning Broadway Stars from The Phantom of the Opera, Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, Billy Elliot and Show Boat! Rick Hilsabeck is a highly regarded actor, singer, dancer and teacher with over 35 years of experience starring on Broadway, national tours, the concert stage, as well as the dance world. He has enjoyed a successful and diverse international career. Rick learned the hallmarks of good teaching from his parents. His mom, an accomplished soprano in her own right, and his dad, a beloved high school history teacher, recognized his growing interests in art, music and dance. With a solid foundation early on in vocal technique and an interest in dance, he was pointed in the right direction. Directly out of high school, Rick was chosen to be a member of the Academy Award winning singing group The Young Americans, based in Los Angeles. He was also accepted to the Acting program at California State University, Fullerton. There he studied all aspects of the theatre arts: acting technique, scene study, makeup design, set design, fencing, stage combat and mime. Rick returned to his native Chicago where he worked in the area theatres and studied dance with Lou Conte. The internationally acclaimed Hubbard Street Dance Company was in its infancy at the time and Rick became the first male principal dancer with the troupe where he appeared in two PBS TV specials. He had a long tenure with HSDC as a dancer, choreographer and teacher.
