Fall Theatre Season

"Anne of Green Gables" is in rehearsals, and the beloved characters of Avonlea are starting to come to life. The show runs Feb 20-28, 2009, at Festival Place. Tickets go on sale soon, check Ticketmaster for details.

The Gershwin project records shortly -- "Crazy for Gershwin", featuring Martin Galba on vocals and myself on piano, will be available sometime in the new year. Details on the CD release will be posted here.

Finally, there are a number of shows coming up involving friends and colleagues that I'd like to suggest to you:

Three Viewings/Three Hotels -- Nov 6-9 at Festival Place (Sherwood Park)
"Three Viewings" is a set of 3 monolgues, set in a funeral home. It features Norm Usiskin, Anne-Marie Szucs, and Francie Goodwin-Davis. The second play, "Three Hotels", is the story of a pharmaceutical executive and his wife. Featuring Cory Christensen and Anne-Marie Szucs. Both plays are directed by Richard Winnick.

The Three Musketeers -- Nov 27- 29 at Horizon Stage (Spruce Grove)
Horizon Players presents this swashbuckling adventure, full of suspense, action, adventure and sword-fighting! Directed by Jon Shields.

Crazy for You -- Dec 19-30 at Festival Place (Sherwood Park)
This musical features some of the best-known songs by George & Ira Gershwin. A holiday treat for the whole family. Directed and choreographed by Shelley Tookey.

Enjoy the fall, and see you at the theatre!
