She is very excited to work with Michael for the first time. She would like to thank her dance teacher and everyone who helped make this production possible. MICHAEL KEVIN BALDWIN Fact: Michael is a diva because of Michael Berkeley. Since he was a child, under the direction and tutelage of Michael Berkeley, Michael has played ensemble child #23, ensemble teen #9, ensemble adult #3, a Chinese butler, Humpty Dumpty, a pyromaniac, a usurper, a Macy’s elf, a drunken sot, and himself…among many others. He was really good in all of these roles, especially the last, because of Michael Berkeley. WHO’S WHO IN DIVAS PAT BARTON is a Salisbury resident who is really pleased to sing with all these wonderful people and, of course, with Michael! Pat, a Contralto, has a music education and sings with several local Early Music groups. “This will be a fun first!” DAVID BAYERSDORFER is a retired social studies teacher, coach, interim administrator, and Athletic Director from Housatonic Valley Regional High School. He was introduced to performing in musical theater in 2000 by Michael Berkeley, Pam Chassin, and Lori Belter, and was “hooked” for the next 12 years performing with them at TriArts in 15 different shows. His favorite role still remains his first, Joe Boyd in Damn Yankees. Other favorites include Moose in Crazy for You, Reg in The Full Monty, and one of the Gangsters in Kiss Me Kate. “It is wonderful and exciting to be working with the ‘old gang’ again. I dedicate my performance to my mentor, Michael, and my wife, Nancy, who is my biggest fan.” LORI J. BELTER (Producer/Production Manager)is responsible for revitalizing the musical theatre program at Housatonic Valley Regional High School. A graduate herself of HVRHS, she has been thrilled to bring back to the stage the programming that she enjoyed as a student. Lori was one of the founding members of TriArts, where she served on the Board as President for many years. She has appeared in numerous productions on the TriArts stage, including: Anything Goes (Hope Harcourt), The Music Man (Marian Paroo), A Chorus Line (Sheila), Cabaret (Fraulein Kost), Chicago (Hunyak), The Full Monty (Pam), and The Wedding Singer (Angie); and at the Warner Theatre, including: A Chorus Line (Maggie) and Carousel (Carrie Pipperidge). In her spare time, she is a realtor with Best & Cavallaro and serves as a volunteer EMT for the Salisbury Volunteer Ambulance Service. PATTY BEST has been singing since she could talk - only stopping when her parents would give her a quarter to cease and desist. She performed with several bands in high school and college but now, as the busy co-owner of Best & Cavallaro Real Estate, rarely has the chance to perform. So Patty welcomes this opportunity to work with Michael Berkeley on the DIVA show, as she has done since the very first one 14 years ago. “What fun! Thank you, Michael!” WHO’S WHO IN DIVAS JAZMINE JADE BONA recently completed her successful run as Taddy The Tadpole in Flying Cloud Camp’s production of Natural World.

On Long Island, she has performed on local stages in such shows as Mame (Mame), Annie Get Your Gun (Annie Oakley), Anything Goes (Reno Sweeney), Once Upon a Mattress (Queen Aggravain) and Bye Bye Birdie (Rosie). Debbi was an on-line theater reviewer for Broadway.com and has been both an investor and producer of Broadway shows since that experience. Recently, she was thrilled to be included as a performer in a new reading of Rip Van Winkle: The Musical by Michael Berkeley and Ray Roderick. Much love goes to her family for supporting her time in the spotlight and to Michael, Pamela, Amber and especially Lori for showing her how to shine. AMBER CAMERON (Choreographer) is happy to be back amongst her favorite Divas! Amber had the pleasure of working with Michael last year on Divas Do the Decades! and loves the life and energy this show brings to the community. Amber has toured nationally with CATS, Crazy for You, and Funny Girl. This summer Amber played Lola in the Warner Theater’s production of Damn Yankees.

She is excited to be a part of Divas once again. “It is a joy and privilege to share the stage with such a talented and wonderful group of people.” CAMILLA CLONEY has brought her songs and stylings to thousands of delighted fans, from the cabarets of NYC to “down- home” Dallas barbeques, from Nantucket to Palm Beach. A musical prodigy, Camilla taught herself to play the xylophone as a child and progressed to classical study at the Universities of Oklahoma and Michigan and the University of Munich on a Fulbright Scholarship. Influenced by the music of George Shearing, Dave Brubeck, Peggy Lee and Billie Holiday, she made the move from classical to the popular repertory. Her musical variety show at a Dallas television station led to appearances on the Lawrence Welk and Arthur Godfrey Shows. Camilla was the lead singer on the Kraft Music Hall TV Program, a member of the Ed Sullivan Singers, has played venues such as the Cafe Carlyle and has been much admired as a NY studio singer/musician. Her cabaret performances continue to be in demand at supper clubs, private parties, and benefits. CHARLOTTE P. CLULOW is a rising fifth grader at Salisbury Central School. She has enjoyed time on stage in several children’s theater productions with FVCT, SOAR and Tri Arts, and is thrilled to return to Divas this season.

  • GSC Films: S-Z

    GSC Films: S-Z

    GSC Films: S-Z Saboteur 1942 Alfred Hitchcock 3.0 Robert Cummings, Patricia Lane as not so charismatic love interest, Otto Kruger as rather dull villain (although something of prefigure of James Mason’s very suave villain in ‘NNW’), Norman Lloyd who makes impression as rather melancholy saboteur, especially when he is hanging by his sleeve in Statue of Liberty sequence. One of lesser Hitchcock products, done on loan out from Selznick for Universal. Suffers from lackluster cast (Cummings does not have acting weight to make us care for his character or to make us believe that he is going to all that trouble to find the real saboteur), and an often inconsistent story line that provides opportunity for interesting set pieces – the circus freaks, the high society fund-raising dance; and of course the final famous Statue of Liberty sequence (vertigo impression with the two characters perched high on the finger of the statue, the suspense generated by the slow tearing of the sleeve seam, and the scary fall when the sleeve tears off – Lloyd rotating slowly and screaming as he recedes from Cummings’ view). Many scenes are obviously done on the cheap – anything with the trucks, the home of Kruger, riding a taxi through New York. Some of the scenes are very flat – the kindly blind hermit (riff on the hermit in ‘Frankenstein?’), Kruger’s affection for his grandchild around the swimming pool in his Highway 395 ranch home, the meeting with the bad guys in the Soda City scene next to Hoover Dam. The encounter with the circus freaks (Siamese twins who don’t get along, the bearded lady whose beard is in curlers, the militaristic midget who wants to turn the couple in, etc.) is amusing and piquant (perhaps the scene was written by Dorothy Parker?), but it doesn’t seem to relate to anything.

  • The Cat's Meow

    The Cat's Meow

    THE CAT’S MEOW PRODUCTION NOTES Directed by Peter Bogdanovich SYNOPSIS From award-winning screenwriter Steven Peros and acclaimed director Peter Bogdanovich comes The Cat’s Meow, an extraordinary look at a fateful excursion of “fun and frolic” aboard William Randolph Hearst’s private yacht in November of 1924 that brought together some of the century’s best-known personalities and resulted in a still-unsolved, hushed-up killing. As Hearst and his lover actress Marion Davies set sail from San Pedro Harbor early one Saturday morning, hosting a small group that includes the brilliant but self-absorbed Charlie Chaplin, film pioneer Thomas Ince preoccupied with his recent financial setbacks, ambitious gossip columnist Louella Parsons, and the eccentric British Victorian novelist Elinor Glyn, it quickly becomes clear that although witty repartee and double entendre are the order of the day, deceit and deception are also on the menu. Everyone, it seems, has a secret agenda: Ince, whose pioneering work in defining the role of the film producer has been favorably compared to D.W. Griffith’s contributions to directing, is determined to seal a partnership with Hearst’s Cosmopolitan Pictures despite W.R.’s seeming lack of interest; New York-based film critic Louella Parsons has her eye on a transfer to the west coast where she can cover the film industry more intimately; Ince’s lover, actress Margaret Livingston, no longer cares to keep their affair a secret; Hearst himself suspects that his paramour Davies has been unfaithful with the legendary comic Chaplin; and Chaplin indeed schemes to steal away the beautiful actress from the richest man in the world.

[email protected] SEX AFTER KIDS Production Notes About the Story When writer and director Jeremy LaLonde (The Untitled Work of Paul Shepard) decided he wanted to move forward with his sophomore feature film, he took a rather unconventional approach. He cast the film and then wrote the script. He says, “Itʼs far easier to write when youʼve got a voice of a character in your head, and even easier when you know exactly who is going to play that part.” And, he also adapted the old adage – write what you know. The idea for Sex After Kids was born out of his own experience. At the time, he had a newborn and a three-year-old, as he said, “Itʼs safe to say that I knew enough about this subject to realize it was pretty fertile ground and that there were probably a decent amount of people who would appreciate a comedy about the subject.” Ultimately to Jeremy, the film can mean different things for different people. “For me,” he says, “itʼs about how relationships are hard and then when you throw in uncontrollable elements it can make them impossible – but thatʼs when people grow. Itʼs about how relationships change over time and how some people have a hard time dealing with that fact.” Shannon Beckner, who plays Jules, shares the same sentiment as Jeremy, she commented, “This film is about the entirely new lives many of us unwittingly start when we bring another human being into our old ones.

An international selection of artworks made for broadcast, the exhibi- tion documents the crossovers and collaborations that take place on this new television, between and among dancers, musicians, play- wrights, actors, authors, poets, and visual and video artists . And it investigates the artists' own investigation of one medium -- be it dance or music or literature -- through another . It examines the transformations video makes and the possibilities it allows . These provocative uses of television time and technology are organized in THE ARTS FOR TELEVISION according to the medium transformed by the electronic image ; the six categories are Dance for Television, Music for Television, Theatre for Television, Literature for Television, The Video Image (works that address video as a visual art, that make reference to the traditional visual arts and to seeing itself), and Not Necessarily Television (works that address the usual content of TV, and transform it) . The ARTS FOR TELEVISION also presents another level of collaboration in artists' television . It documents the involvement of television stations in Europe and America with art and artists' video . It recognizes their commitment and acknowledges the risks they take in allowing artists the opportunity to realize works of art .
