“BROADWAY POPS”: An evening of classic Broadway!Stefano and Nina Tanchietti, the magical American Dramatic Tenor and Soprano Duo, offer a powerful and unforgettable experience as entertainers of the Broadway repertoire. Based professionally out of New York City and originally heralding from Massachusettes, the duo possesses glorious operatic voices, extraordinary physical beauty, incomparable acting ability and innate artistic expressiveness. From their first joint venture as college sweethearts as Marco and Gianetta in Gilbert and Sullivan’s “The Gondoliers”, to their first operatic pairing as Don Jose and Micaela in Bizet’s “Carmen”, to their most recent performances as Otello and Desdemona in Verdi’s “Otello”, their audiences have marveled at the special chemistry they share onstage.
BCT has contracted to bring one of their most popular shows, BROADWAY POPS, to the BCT stage on July 11, 2009 at 8:00PM. Stefano and Nina will perform musical scenes with full costume and choreograpy, from some of the most famous musical productions of our time. SHOWBOAT, BRIGADOON, WEST SIDE STORY, and PHANTOM OF THE OPERA are all part of the amazing theatre production planned for one night only at the Barrow!
From the Broadway tunes of Rodgers & Hammerstein, Lerner & Loewe, Bernstein and Webber, to the Operetta melodies of Lehar, Kern, Herbert and Romberg, to the Opera arias and duets of Verdi, Puccini and Bizet, the duo’s BROADWAY POPS performance is an event that should be seen by everyone. Tickets are $20.00 each and can be purchased by calling the box office at 814-437-3440. You can also purchase tickets online at the theatre’s website BARROWTHEATRE.COM.
Dinner served diner-style! “Mass Appeal” to entertain at BCT Little Theatre! ONE SHOW ONLY!The Barrow-Civic Theatre presents “Mass Appeal”, Saturday, May 16th in the Little Theatre.
This "diner theatre" production features Al Shilling as Father Tim Foley. Father Foley is a popular parish priest, who has retained the good will of his parishioners by cracking jokes and never taking an unpopular stand on crucial matters. His congregation loves him and he loves his church. One Sunday, his comfortable position is challenged by Mark Dolson, a young seminarian played by John Miller. Dolson's rebellious reputation and frank honesty about behavior seemingly "unbecoming" a candidate for the priesthood, threatens to earn him an expulsion from the seminary. Father Foley is expected to bring Dolson around to the Church's "party line," but the younger man resists the older man's advice--quite loudly at times. In the end, both men reach new understandings of the church, their relationship and themselves. Mass Appeal features some adult themes. Ted Smith is directing, with Rosie Petulla acting as production manager.
Catering for this show is by Judy Grandelis and The AmaZing Foods Catering Co. Tickets are $30.00 a plate. The menu choices are Grilled Chicken Breast over Basil Pesto Penne or Vegetarian Lasagna entrees. Also served will be Tuscan Salad, and fresh fruit shortcake for dessert.
