PLEASE NOTE THAT BLUE INDICATES A CLICKABLE LINK Hello,
Welcome to the Bell Tower Theater! We are so pleased that you are here to join us.
When we opened the theater in 2003, we could only dream of the success we are now enjoying. The Bell Tower Theater has done truly wonderful things with more than 300,000 people attending our shows and participating in our programs. Our outstanding youth theater program provides arts learning experiences for kids from pre-school through high school. Many of these programs are free, but for those that have a fee, we have provided thousands of dollars in scholarships. Our goal is to make a difference in these young lives.
As most of you know the Bell Tower Theater is a not-for-profit organization. Corporations, foundations, local businesses and individuals have given their talent, time and treasure to help make the Bell Tower Theater what it is today. We would like to thank each and every person who has supported our efforts: our staff and teachers, our patrons, our volunteers, our cast and crew, and our donors. Great things are happening at the Bell Tower Theater, and we look forward to many more years. Please consider getting involved this year by attending shows, volunteering your time or making a financial contribution. We would love to have you as a part of our continued success.
Thank you for being here. We appreciate your continued support.
Now, sit back, relax and enjoy the show!

Jon Pocket Benjy is excited to be in his first Bell Tower show! He loves the theatre and can’t wait to be back on stage after the lengthy intermission. He teaches 6th-grade religion at Mazzuchelli Catholic Middle School and also directs the Mazzuchelli musical. He is currently pursuing his MA in Theatre (safely through online classes!) at Regent University. Thank you for coming out, and enjoy the show!
Scott Schneider ...... Gordon Hepworth Scott returns to the stage having most recently appeared as Bubba in Sandy Toes & Salty Kisses. A regular around the theater, Scott enjoys working the tech crew when he is not performing. He is thrilled that the Bell Tower has taken the lead in the community with the return to live local theater! Bravo to the BTT staff for their efforts in ensuring that people feel safe and welcome. The show must...and will…go on! Professionally, Scott is the Dean of Adult Education at Eastern Iowa Community Colleges.
Angela Schwarte ...... Aunt Esther Angela is thrilled to be returning to the Bell Tower stage. She would like to thank her son for being her muse and inspiration. Enjoy the show!
Carri (Seeley) Burroughs . . . . Nancy Fairchild The Church of Diminishing Marginal Returns is Carri’s fourth production with the Bell Tower Theater. Previous Bell Tower shows include With Friends Like These (2009) and The Love List (2011). Then after a 9-year hiatus she was back on the Bell Tower stage with Love Happens earlier this year.
Dakota Vaassen ...... Josh Pocket Dakota is excited to be in his second production with the Bell Tower having performed in July’s virtual play Stuck at Home. Some of Dakota’s favorite productions include Tartuffe, The Normal Heart, The Crucible, Avenue Q and Eurydice. After graduating from UW-Platteville, Dakota spent two years in Chicago where he wrote and directed his own plays. Dakota moved back to Platteville in 2019 and continues to write and participate in theatre. Thank you in advance for supporting your local arts and hope you all stay safe and enjoy the show! Sue Riedel ...... Director Sue, our director and theater manager, is a graduate of Clarke University and retired in 2012 after 38 years of teaching Speech & Theater at Hempstead High School. Sue founded the Barn Community Theater in 1972 and was the Manager and Artistic Director of the Grand Opera House from 1986 to 2001. Sue serves on the Dubuque Arts and Cultural Affairs Commission and is a former member of the Iowa Arts Council Board of Directors. Sue has helped bring numerous movies to Dubuque County including Miles from Home, Take This Job and Shove It, and the Academy Award−nominated Field of Dreams. Sue hopes that you enjoy the show and that she will see you at the Bell Tower Theater again very soon. Jay Huling ...... Playwright Jay Huling is perhaps best known by the public for his irresistibly absurd comedy Elvis of Nazareth, which was featured in Hal Leonard Publications’ anthology “The Best American Plays,” published by Applause Books. Yet, many Artistic Directors and theater insiders confess to a guilty pleasure for the bombastic audacity of Plumber’s Butt – Jay’s uproarious award-winning story of faith about a woman with multiple maladies who is suddenly healed when she sees the plumber bend over. From infrequent theatergoers to rabid stage-door Johnnies, whoever the audiences are, they find Jay Huling’s plays to be rollicking, way-out entertainment. Jay’s plays have all the elements that appeal to lovers of comedy, satire and anti-humor. Whether it’s his happy-go-lucky full-length romps – such as Twelve Bar Blues, The Sing Sing Suite, The Church of Diminishing Marginal Returns, Hard Luck Sings the Blues – or his quick-witted one-acts – such as The Wily Ray Riley, Bob Juan, Bonjour Raconteur, The Flaxen Miss Jackson – Jay’s comedies are exciting, laugh-a-minute affairs. His works have been honored with the Porter Fleming Literary Prize, the Premiere Performances International Playwriting Award, the McLaren Memorial Comedy Award, the Pickering Award for Playwriting Excellence, the 14th Annual New Voice Play Festival’s Golden Curtain Award, and others. And his radio and television commercials have received national recognition for sales and creative ingenuity – including AME, AVA, ECHO, Effie, MarCom, MAXI, OBIE, PRSA, Silver Microphone, Stevie, Summit EMA, and Telly awards, as well as Best of Category (Public Service) at the International Wildlife Film Festival. Jay Huling graduated from Jacksonville University, earning his BFA in Theatre Arts. He is a member of the Dramatists Guild. You can visit his corporate website at www.jayhuling.com or his playwriting website at www.jayhuling.net. Join the Bell Tower Theater Family and
