TANNERSVILLE — This 4th of July weekend, everybody's favorite mermaid is swimming into the Orpheum Performing Arts Center in Tannersville! Produced by Maude Adams Theater Hub and Catskill Mountain Foundation, Disney's The Little Mermaid is a perennial favorite for kids of all ages. Echoing that feeling is the all-ages cast, with a range of three years old to over seventy! The shows are Thursday, July 3rd at 6:00pm, Saturday, July 5th at 1:00pm and 6:00pm, and Sunday, July 6th at 1:00pm at The Orpheum Center for the Arts, 6050 Main Street, Tannersville.
Due to the enormous amount of interest at auditions, the casting has been doubled for all of the main parts.The wildly talented cast includes perennial local favorites Jacob Shipley and CJ Dunn-Cappellino as Prince Eric, Glenda Lauten and Allegra Coons as Ursula, and Hedda Flynn and new-comer to MATH Heather Roland-Blanco as Ariel.
The Little Mermaid also brings together an extraordinary team of creatives: director Liz Piccoli, choreographer Marcus MacGregor, music director Lee Stowe (who will also be making his MATH acting debut as Chef Louis), assistant music director Sarah Mahoney, and Jennifer Cawein on sinfonia (a program that brings a full-sounding orchestra to the touch of a finger), and stage manager Lydia Pidlusky have been rehearsing the two casts since mid-April. Meanwhile, the dynamic group of Peter Preston, Tara Weiman, Cara Dantzig, and Colleen Weiman are working in concert to create sets, costumes, puppets, and props that are sure to take you deep under the sea and back onto land. When not singing about poor unfortunate souls, Glenda Lauten brings her singular magic to over fifty wigs!
This summer marks the fourth season of musical theater for MATH, with each production growing exponentially in talent and imagination. Each of these big-stage shows are made possible through the vision of the Catskill Mountain Foundation and the many generous businesses in the mountain top community. Due to their support, MATH has been able to keep ticket prices consistent year-to-year in order to ensure everyone can enjoy their friends and neighbors as they take the main stage on Main Street.
Don't wait to get your tickets as sales are strong, and expected to sell out. Shows are Thursday, July 3rd at 6:00, Saturday, July 5th at 1:00 and 6:00, and Sunday, July 6th at 1:00.
