A Stony Batter tradition that pre-dates Laurie Mufson’s tenure as Director of Theatre is for the Tech Crew to hide a rubber chicken somewhere onstage during our final show. Due to the uncertainty of weather they will be placing it somewhere each night we are able to perform A Chorus Line. While this would never “fly” in professional theatre it is a uniquely Mercersburg activity that honors the hard work of our students behind the scenes! ENSEMBLE BIOS LINDEN AMSTER as Don Linden is a 10th-grade student at Mercersburg Academy, and he has been acting from a young age. His roles include Rolf in The Sound of Music, Captain Hook in Peter Pan, and George Spelvin in The Actor’s Nightmare. He has also appeared in The King and I, Our Town, and Mamma Mia! Linden is also a member of the Mercersburg Academy Band, has been playing trumpet for 10 years, and has made District Band twice. Linden is excited to be joining the cast of A Chorus Line with the role of Don Kerr. JORDYN BEARD as Judy Jordyn Beard has performed in countless musicals, plays, and musical events. Her most notable role has been Mary Sunshine in Chicago during her sophomore year at Rappahannock County High School (RCHS), and she was also assistant choreographer. She has been receiving musical training for eight years and plans to continue her training after graduation. Jordyn plays the flute and piccolo, sings, conducts, and enjoys musical theater. During her first performance of A Chorus Line in 2018, Jordyn was a member of the pit at RCHS as the only flute/piccolo player. Her favorite performing arts story is of the time she was able to play with her marching band through the Magic Kingdom in Walt Disney World, as she is a life- long Disney fan. MICHAEL BRANNAN as Bobby Michael Brannan is a first-year 10th grader at Mercersburg. He is from Mississippi, where he has lived most of his life. This will be his first musical, but he has been a part of one play here and four plays at his previous school, Cardigan Mountain School, where he got the role of Prospero in The Tempest in his first play ever and, in his last play, brought Van Helsing to life in Dracula. When not acting, he enjoys other creative hobbies like writing and drawing, and he also has a passion for psychology, which he hopes to pursue. He hopes to use his experience as an actor to help give him insight into people’s minds to help them as a therapist. CARINA COLE as Val Carina Cole, who is playing the role of Val Clark, is an upper middler here at Mercersburg Academy. She started acting and participating in choir in elementary school. Some of her past shows at Mercersburg include Mamma Mia! and Chicago. Her other past shows/roles include Juliet in Romeo and Juliet, Fiona in Shrek, Helena in A Midsummer Night’s Dream, and Taylor McKessie in High School Musical. On top of being in the musical, Carina is also co-editor-in-chief of the Mercersburg News, vice president of the Women’s Activism Club, and a member of the literary staff of Blue Review. Carina wants to thank her mom and dad for always being so supportive of her. WREN DAHBURA as Cassie Wren Dahbura will be taking her final Stony Batter bow as Cassie in A Chorus Line! She has previously been seen in Anything Goes (Patience, the angel) and Chicago (Mona) as well as the 2018, 2019, and 2020 Fall and Spring Dance Concerts and the 2020 and 2021 Irving-Marshall Declamation at Mercersburg. Dahbura has been a part of numerous productions outside of Stony Batter, such as Thoroughly Modern Millie (Millie) and performances with the Mid Maryland Performing Arts Center. Dahbura is very excited to pursue her passion for the performing arts at Muhlenberg College where she will double major in theatre management and business with a minor in dance. Many thanks to Laurie Mufson (director of the arts), Anne Reeder Bertram, Denise Bennett, Grace Bennet, Lindsey Owen, Jim Brinson, Kelly Dowling, Walt Dowling, and Jessica Doubell for making this production possible during a global pandemic. KERI-ANN DENIS as Lori (understudy of Val) Keri-Ann Denis is a 9th grader at Mercersburg Academy and she likes to cook and sew in her free time. DYLAN DOWLING as Zach Four-year Stony Batter Player, Class of 2021. Dylan has loved every moment he spent in this program. He wishes he had more time to participate in it, but nothing lasts forever! KAITLYN DOWLING as Richie Kaitlyn Dowling is a 10th-grade actor and plays the role of Richie. She has been acting since age 8, encouraged by her theatrical family. Kaitlyn is also involved in various visual arts as well as performing arts. Other notable roles include ensemble member in Mamma Mia!, the Mouse King in The Nutcracker & The Mouse King: A Virtual Family Adventure, and herself in Schoolhouse Rock Live! Jr. BOB HOLLIS as Mark (understudy of Mia) Bob is a 9th grader and proud to say that this is his first musical at Mercersburg Academy! He hopes you enjoy the show! NATALIE KOCHOVÁ as Gretchen (understudy of Judy) Natalie, currently a junior, is a first-year international student at Mercersburg. She is originally from the Czech Republic. Theatre is her biggest passion, and A Chorus Line is her theatrical debut. She has danced since she was small and appeared at both the World Tap Dance Championship and the World Ballet Cup. In the future, she hopes to study medicine and get a minor in acting. Natalie is extremely grateful to her family and friends for their support and sends love to the cast for being her second family. DALILA MELKUMOVA as Mia (Dance Captain) Dalila Melkumova (Mia) is a senior at Mercersburg Academy. Born in Russia, she has been doing ballet since the age of 7, before switching

    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: October 16, 2019 Contact: Rebecca Curtiss 617.496.2000 x8841 | 617.872.8254 | [email protected] Creative Team and Cast Announced for American Repertory Theater Premiere of Moby-Dick New Collaboration Between Dave Malloy and Rachel Chavkin To Run December 3, 2019 – January 12, 2020 Download images here. Cambridge, MA – American Repertory Theater (A.R.T.) at Harvard University, under the leadership of Terrie and Bradley Bloom Artistic Director Diane Paulus and Executive Producer Diane Borger, have announced the creative team and cast of Moby-Dick, with music, lyrics, book, and orchestrations by Dave Malloy, developed with and directed by Rachel Chavkin. Performances of the new adaptation of Herman Melville’s classic novel begin Tuesday, December 3 at the Loeb Drama Center in Cambridge, MA. The production opens officially on Wednesday, December 11, 2019 and closes Sunday, January 12, 2020. “We are all in the belly of the whale…” From the creative team behind A.R.T.’s 2015 production of Natasha, Pierre & The Great Comet of 1812 comes an epic musical adaptation of Herman Melville’s iconic American novel. As the egomaniacal Captain Ahab drives his crew across the seas in pursuit of the great white whale, Melville’s nineteenth-century vision of America collides head-on with the present. “I’ve always been fascinated with the surprising ways classic literature can resonate with contemporary times, and Moby-Dick is no exception,” says Malloy. “Melville was writing about America in 1851, as the country was struggling to define itself and reconcile all the conflicts that led inevitably to the Civil War; 170 years later, we’re still talking about the same issues— capitalism, democracy, environmentalism, race.
