    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).

  • 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.
