I am so glad to have you as our guest for this incredible season finale. The energy this cast brings to the stage will make you want to get up and dance to the iconic music from the legendary Bee Gees. I’m thrilled to share this electrifying production with you. Next season the excitement continues on our Mainstage with a spectacular line-up. The 2017–18 season will begin with Broadway’s classic Tony Award-winning Best Musical A Funny Thing Happened On the Way to the Forum. You’ll meet Pseudolus, a crafty slave who struggles to win the hand of a beautiful, but slow-witted, courtesan for his young master. The plot twists and turns with cases of mistaken identity, slamming doors and a bevy of beautiful showgirls. I think this musical comedy is one of the funniest Broadway shows ever written, and I’m sure you’ll agree. During the holiday season we’ll look to a brighter “tomorrow” with one of the world’s best-loved musicals Annie. This Tony Award- winning Best Musical features some of the greatest musical theatre Photo: Mark Garvin hits ever written including “It’s the Hard Knock Life,” “Easy Street,” and “Tomorrow.” I’m excited to share this exciting production with you and your family, as Annie fills our hearts with joy! Our season continues with The Humans. This comedy won more than 20 Best Play awards in 2016, including the Tony Award.

Patrick Cassidy, son of Playhouse honoree Shirley Jones, is now scheduled to perform in the concert and accept honors on behalf of Jones, who due to a recent injury is unable to attend. Tony nominee Andrea McArdle ("Annie") has also joined the cast. "Shirley Jones sadly cannot be with us due to a fracture," says Alexander Fraser. "She is recovering and will be back on her feet soon, but her doctor has advised her not to travel. We are thrilled that her son Patrick Cassidy can be with us to celebrate Oscar Hammerstein and Bucks County Playhouse, where his parents spent a fantastic summer of 1955. We also look forward to welcoming Andrea McArdle back to New Hope, where she last appeared on The Playhouse stage in 2014. While we are disappointed that Shirley cannot be with us, Patrick and Andrea are two enormously talented performers who certainly add extra star wattage to the already extraordinary cast assembled for this concert."

As you are watching the show tonight, you will see many moving parts on stage: special effects, sets and scenery changes, stage lighting and numerous (Left to right) Jennifer Bradford, other details that are performed on cue. Stanley D. Cohen, Steven Glaudini Many designers, crew members, and and Colleen Kollar Smith technicians contribute to make these intricacies come to fruition, but the individuals at the helm are the remarkable members of our stage management teams. It is appropriate in the Year of the Stage Manager to celebrate these unsung heroes of the theatre. They are responsible for scheduling and running rehearsals. They serve as the liaison between the director and the rest of the creative team. From opening night through the closing night, they ensure that the director’s vision of the show remains in place. Their most visible job function is to call the sound, lighting, scenery, and special effects cues in the dark from the back of the amphitheatre in the sound and lighting booth. Tonight, all those elements are being overseen by Stanley D. Cohen, who we refer to as the “Rolls-Royce of Stage Managers.” Stanley has stage managed more than 70 productions at The Moonlight.

To close our 13th season, I selected Baby, which ran on Broadway from 1983 to 1984 for 241 performances. I loved the touching story and the beautiful music when I saw it performed on the Tony Awards and 601 Airport Road South, Naples (239) 234-1514 | AudiNaples.com listened to the cast album. In fact, I like this show so much that I put in in our 2nd season, when we had smaller audiences and fewer performances, and brought it back for this season to reach more people. Because it’s rarely performed, it’s what we like to call a “lost treasure of Broadway.” Yet it has great credentials: It was nominated for 601 Airport Road South, Naples seven Tony Awards, including Best Musical and Best Original Score, (239) 234-1521 | VWofNaples.com and six Drama Desk Awards.
