Of the more than 13,000 who saw the production, we welcomed 4,500 guests for their first time to the Playhouse! Now we are thrilled to present a famous day in rock and roll history, as told in Million Dollar Quartet. Hunter Foster played legendary music producer Sam Phillips in the original Broadway production, and has directed the show many times around the country. He’s assembled a terrific cast from those productions, including returning Playhouse artists James Ludwig (Ebenezer Scrooge’s Big Playhouse Christmas Show), Zach Cossman (Buddy) and Ryah Nixon (The Rocky Horror Show). We’re gearing up for our big fundraiser for the year, the fourth Galavant in the Garden, to be held at Barbara and Jay Belding’s beautiful home on Saturday, September 22.

  • Emma Wahl's Statement Regarding Her WEST Fellowship Project Two
    Emma Wahl’s Statement Regarding Her WEST Fellowship Project Two of my biggest passions are musical theater and helping people who are less fortunate than me. Over the years, I have been able to combine these interests by raising money for great causes like Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS, Children’s Miracle Network, and the Make-A-Wish Foundation. Two years ago, I learned about another wonderful organization called Artists Striving To End Poverty (ASTEP), which provides creative arts and AIDS education for poverty- stricken children. ASTEP has “adopted” four locations to be recipients of its programming for poor children: India, South Africa, New York City and rural Florida. ASTEP sends professional actors to work with young people who have no access or exposure to arts education. Its mission is to engage and empower these children with the goal of increasing their self-esteem and making them self- sufficient. One of the ways that ASTEP raises funds for its programs is by producing concerts featuring performances by Broadway actors and actresses. With the incredible support of ASTEP founder Mary-Mitchell Campbell and Hathaway Brown School, where I am an eighth-grader, I have been working on a unique, two-year project to produce ASTEP’s first benefit concert in this part of the country, right here in Cleveland. This event, called “For Good,” will be held on Monday, April 13, 2009, in the Performing Arts Center at Cuyahoga Community College’s Eastern Campus in Highland Hills Village, Ohio. Mary-Mitchell Campbell is one of the busiest and most well-respected music directors on Broadway.

  • Geva's 43 Season Begins with Monty Python's Spamalot
    Media Contact: Dawn Kellogg Communications Manager (585) 420-2059 [email protected] FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE GEVA’S 43RD SEASON BEGINS WITH MONTY PYTHON’S SPAMALOT Broadway couple Hunter Foster and Jennifer Cody lead cast. Geva partners with WXXI and the Little Theatre for Monty Python Film Series. Rochester, N.Y., August 18, 2015 – Audiences are in for an outrageously hilarious time as Geva Theatre Center presents the Tony Award-winning hit musical, Monty Python’s Spamalot by Eric Idle and John Du Prez and directed by Melissa Rain Anderson in the Elaine P. Wilson Stage from September 9 through October 11. Lovingly ripped off from the classic comedy film Monty Python and the Holy Grail, this outrageous musical parody tells the legendary tale of King Arthur and his Knights of the Round Table. Embarking on their quest to find the Holy Grail, the Knights’ shenanigans include flying cows, beautiful show girls, killer rabbits, and flatulent Frenchmen – all while performing heart-stopping and hilarious musical numbers. 2015 marks the 40th Anniversary of the release of Monty Python and the Holy Grail. The film was a box office hit and was the highest grossing British film shown in the U.S. in 1975, surpassing films such as The Rocky Horror Picture Show, Tommy, The Man Who Would Be King and Return of the Pink Panther. In 2005, Spamalot, adapted from the film, premiered on Broadway following a Chicago preview run. Directed by Mike Nichols, Spamalot received 14 Tony Award nominations and won three, including the award for Best Musical. During its Broadway run, it was seen by over 2 million people and grossed over $175 million.
