Live In Concert - DAVY JONES!
The Barrow-Civic Theatre is getting Davy Jones, one night only October 17 at 8pmDavy Jones first invaded teen hearts as the international idol of millions in the 1960s Emmy Award winning television classic The Monkees. Since the show hit the small screen, Davy has triumphed as both a serious actor and a comedian on the theatrical stage; as a rock musician, composer and artist.
Born in Manchester, England on December 30, 1945, Davy began entertaining at 11 years old as Ena Sharples' grandson on the still-running ITV soap opera, Coronation Street.
Theatrical agents sought him out as he was working as an apprentice jockey in Newmarket and took him to London where he portrayed Dickens' mischievous Artful Dodger in the West
End production of Oliver! Later, at the age of 16, Davy found himself the toast of New York where he originated the Artful Dodger role on Broadway
and was nominated for a Tony Award.
As a result, Davy was offered a contract with Columbia Pictures/Screen Gems Television, and The Monkees was created shortly after. Also a musical group, The Monkees' album sales surpassed all records, and they continue to be best-sellers 30 years later.
The theater remains in Davy's blood. He most recently received rave reviews for starring in the complex role of Fagin. He has also starred in productions of The Boyfriend, Harry Nilson's The Point, and appeared as Jesus in Godspell, which played in London's West End . Perhaps the
most celebrated television appearance in Davy's long career as a heartthrob is The Brady Bunch episode, "Getting Davy Jones."
Davy is also an accomplished writer and humorous storyteller. His talents extend to short stories, poetry, and photography.
Davy appears for ONE NIGHT ONLY on the Main Stage on October 17 at 8pm. Tickets are available at www.barrowtheatre.com or by calling the Box Office at 814-437-3440.

Box Office News July 31 - Special Blog Issue
Having brushed up everyone’s Shakespeare with KISS ME KATE, the Franklin Civic Operetta Association intends to lend new luster to its next offering, Neil Simon’s classic THE ODD COUPLE.Fresh from his dual-role BCT debut in KISS ME KATE, Nick Mitchell wears two hats for this production as well. Nick brings creativity, expertise, and comic flair to his role as director and to his portrayal of Oscar Madison. Christian Marshall fans (we know who you are!) will delight in his casting as America’s favorite neurotic neat freak, Felix Ungar. A gifted actor with a natural comedic style, Christian is sure to be a crowd-pleaser in this role.
Witnessing Felix’s angst from their seats at a nearby poker table are three BCT veterans and one newcomer. Ben Bodamer and Nick Keeley, both seen earlier this year in TO KILL A MOCKINGBIRD, trade their Southern drawls for the dulcet tones of “New Yawk” and “Joisey” to play Roy and Speed. Bill Hennessy, who made his acting debut in KISS ME KATE, takes his second turn on the boards as fast-drawing, slow-dealing Murray the Cop. Completing this quartet – hysterically – is Pittsburgh actor Andy Coleman in his first Barrow-Civic appearance. Andy plays the affable but oh-so-clueless Vinnie.
For both sugar and spice, FCOA’s ODD COUPLE looks to Katie Kirby-Rogers and Lisa Harry as the Pigeon sisters, Cecily and Gwendolyn. Hilarity ensues when these British babes enter stage left and plans for the evening take wing.
Cooper Oliver and Mary Anne Wilkinson are the show’s producers. Order your tickets today on-line at http://www.barrowtheatre.com/ or by calling 814-437-3440 or 800-537-7769.
