Most recently, he performed in and won the 2021 Taste of Talent vocal competition in Franklin, PA alongside fellow cast member, Scott. “Thank you to the cast and crew for putting together this show and for all of the great laughs and memories along the way. It’s great to be back!” He would also like to thank his friends, family, castmates, and production team for their support.
Sallie Richards Bartram Sallie is over-the-moon ecstatic to return to the Barrow-Civic Theater stage and FCOA! Previous shows include Crazy for You (Polly), Little Shop of Horrors (Crystal), Blithe Spirit (Mrs. Bradman), Disney's Beauty and the Beast (Madame de la Grande Bouche), Handel's Messiah, and Off-Barrow's Liberty Cabaret. Originally from Franklin, Sallie relocated to Erie where she is a psychologist at Sarah Reed Children's Center. She wishes to thank Almi, Steve, Chris, and the production team for all of their time, hard work, and effort bringing this show together; her husband Jonathan for his continued love, support, and encouragement; and to you, the audience, for your support of community theatre. Sallie lovingly dedicates this performance to her Uncle Joe, “Happy 80th Birthday!”
Jenna Baglio Jenna has always enjoyed singing although performing on stage is still very new to her. You’ll catch Jenna as part of the amazing ensemble for several numbers in this production, and she’s featured as Maria in the musical number “Tonight” from West Side Story. When she was in elementary school, Jenna enjoyed participating in school musical productions, and more recently, she was in the ensemble for Rocky Grove and Franklin Area High Schools combined production of Seussical in 2020. She also enjoys other musical endeavors, and is teaching herself the ukulele and guitar. This show has especially helped her discover her voice's full potential and sing pieces she never thought she could.
Ben Bodamer Ben is overjoyed to be stepping back onto the Barrow-Civic Theatre’s stage. He will be reprising his role of Dr. Frederick Frankenstein from the FCOA production of Young Frankenstein during this show. Other notable roles include Jay Gatsby in The Great Gatsby, Inez Serrano in No Exit, Bert in Mary Poppins, Scuttle in The Little Mermaid, Jimmy Winter in Nice Work If You Can Get It, William Barfee in The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee, and many others. Gratuitous thanks to Almi, Steve, and the entire production team, and this dreamy cast for a truly joyous time ‘together again’ at BCT. “Love to my family!” ...... ………...BIOGRAPHIES………………..

Carol's previous roles include Miss Farrell in Annie, Meg Boyd in Damn Yankees, Amy in Company, and Mrs. Baskin in Big, The Musical. Her first role was in the ensemble of Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat. Among her fondest memories are ones when she shared the stage with her husband, Jeff, in shows such as A Grand Night For Singing, All Night Strut, The Secret Garden, Grease, and, of course, Forever Plaid. As a former member of FCOA's Board of Directors, Carol has also produced many shows and has directed Forever Plaid and Plaid Tidings. She thanks her husband and family for their support and the many who make the magic of theater come to life!
Tracy Brown Defying COVID-19! Tracy is so happy to be back on stage for the first time since 2018, having last been seen as Ulla in the FCOA Applefest production of The Producers. After taking a break in 2019, and the pandemic-related lockdown in 2020, Tracy contracted the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) in early April of this year. Still fighting some effects of the virus on her respiratory system, she is thankful to have found her voice again, and is ready to share it once more with the Barrow-Civic audience and the Franklin community.
Joshua Devlin Douglas Adams wrote in The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, “In the beginning the Universe was created. This had made many people very angry and has been widely regarded as a bad move.“ Joshua regards himself as one of the unfortunate byproducts of that very same creation of the universe. A mix of a man who grew up with a love for theatre, Josh found himself working tech for his high school’s productions, and was in the FCOA production of Grease as a member of the ensemble. Now, Josh is performing several roles in Together Again for the First Time, on his rise to fame! He is excited to welcome you all back to live theatre!
Caryn Dudinsky Caryn is back on stage after an eight year hiatus, and it’s even better because she’s sharing the stage with her son, Donald. She had previously appeared with her daughter, Grace, in Miracle on 34th Street, and has spent a lot of time volunteering in the costume room with youth performers at French Creek Community Theater in Meadville. Someday, she hopes to also share the stage with her younger daughter, Ella, and thanks her husband Alan for all of his support...... ………...BIOGRAPHIES………………..
Donald A. Dudinsky Donald joins us with his mother, Caryn, and brings lots of energy to the cast of Together Again! When he is not performing, he enjoys spending time with his family and friends. Donald looks forward to sharing this experience with his castmates, and you, the audience! He plans to return to the Barrow-Civic Theatre for future shows - be on the lookout for this up and coming performer!

Roles she has played since are Abigail Adams in 1776 in Concert, Mother in A Christmas Story the Musical, Irene in Crazy for You and Alma in The Music Man. Live theatre has been missed for too long, as well as the rehearsals, the stress of tech week, and hearing the first applause on opening night. Andrea is so excited to perform with this incredible cast to bring all the actors, tech crew, production staff, and patrons ‘together again’ in person for the first time since BCT closed its doors last year.
Scott Gressley Scott is excited to be a part of Together Again for the First Time at the Barrow-Civic Theatre.

He performed in the Lancaster, PA area at Sight and Sound Theatres in such shows as Esther, Joseph, Jonah, Samson, and many others.

Now, after being away for over 20 years, he is ready be together again for the first time.
Aundrea L. Hill Aundrea has so much acting experience, but so little of it is in the theatre. “Fake it till you make it, everyone!” She was Marilla in the 2020 FCOA production of Anne of Green Gables and is happy to be back on this lovely stage in this lovely community. Aundrea works in Franklin, and she lives with her husband in Utica where they play in the water, watch the birds, and walk all over the place...... ………...BIOGRAPHIES………………..

Having moved to Pittsburgh in 2016, she has been singing and performing burlesque under the stage name Irish Melody and is a company member of the Vaudlesque group Lady Grey's Lovelies, which is based in State College. Katie wants to thank Almi and Steve for giving her the freedom to make her song completely her own and is excited to debut a number that she choreographed herself. She lives with her son, Carson, who seems to be catching the performance bug. “A big ‘thank you’ to the cast and creative team for giving me the confidence and freedom to bring burlesque to the theatre that has been my home since 1994. Break a leg, guys!”
