KISS ME, KATE final weekend!
The reviews are in! Don’t miss the last chance to see “Kiss Me, Kate” at the Barrow-Civic Theatre this weekend!

Kiss Me Kate features Jaime Agnello as Lilli Vanessi/Katherine and Terri Gilmore as Lois
Lane/Bianca, with Brett Sloan as Fred Graham/Petruchio and Jacob Krupitzer as Bill Calhoun/Lucentio, and a strong supporting cast featuring newcomers to the BCT stage as well as seasoned regulars!

YOUTH THEATRE SUMMER CAMP
The Knight the Castle Rocked by Jill & Michael Gallina
Rock back through the ages with this magical tale of merriment, music and movement. With a band of lively minstrels as your guide, you'll explore the world of dance through the ages. Proceeding from the medieval reel, the minuet, waltz, Charleston, Jersey Bounce and right up to the pop dances of today, the characters enjoy a swing through history that makes for a great deal of light-hearted hand clapping and foot tapping fun.
The camp runs July 12 -16, with a Public performance Thursday, July 16th at 7:00pm. The cost of the camp will be $20 if registered by July 1st. This will include a t-shirt and dinner on Thursday. Registration forms available at the theater or available on the Barrow Civic Website.
The camp is for actors ages 7-16 and tech crew (those wanting to learn about lighting, sound, set and backstage work) ages 10-18.
“BROADWAY POPS”
From New York straight to the Barrow!
Known as “The Grande Romanza,” 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 www.barrowtheatre.com.
