County Players Presents
Broadway Bound

One of Broadway’s most prolific writers of comedy, Neil Simon out did himself with the humor heavy production of Broadway Bound. This all time favorite will be presented by County Players on November 15, 16, 22, 23, 29, 30, 2002 with performances opening at 8 P.M. A premier cast has been selected for the production, which is to be directed by Matt Andrews, art director at Marist College. Featured performers are Julie Baska as Kate, Ken Greenman plays Ben, Kevin McNaughton as Eugene, Rick Meyer is Stan, Grace Padworski in the role of Blanche, and Paul Coleman as Jack.

Mostly autobiographical, Simon outlines the hilarious doings of two brothers, Eugene and Stanley, eager to crash into the field of comic writing. Theatre goers will be familiar with Eugene, featured in previous Simon comedies, Brighton Beach Memoirs and Biloxi Blues. Both brothers are under two pressures, the deadline of NBC, who may or may not accept their initial sketches in the competitive field of comic writing. Secondly, the surrounding family, who serve as material for the boys’ scribblings, are a mixed bag. The father would have his sons follow in his career, a tailor. The mother is anxious that the boys remain at home until such time as they find the appropriate women to marry. The grandfather is interested only in the cause of Socialism and wishes that his creative grandsons would incorporate the strivings of the working class into their material. Blanche, an older sister is totally supportive of her brothers, to include underwriting any of their financial needs, she having married into a wealthy family. The family scenes are both humorous and poignant. County Players Theatre is located on 2681 West Main Street in the Village of Wappingers Falls. Tickets for this production are $15.00 or $12.00 for seniors and children under 12. For information and reservations please call the box office at 298-1491.

County Players History

Ten years ago: In November 1992, County Players continued its 35th season with Steel Magnolias directed by Bill Peckham. This almost all-female cast featured well known talent from all over the Hudson Valley including Jill Zaitchik, Kathleen (Morris) Ceng, and Kimberly Kay Baltz.

Twenty years ago: In November 1982, County Players held auditions for A Thousand Clowns to be directed by Rachel Cassidy. Rachel’s audition notice stated that since this show is “a study in non-conformity, with tongue in cheek” auditioners were asked to demonstrate their own deviations from normalcy. Sometimes the audition process can be entertaining as well.

Thanks to Rachel Cassidy and her cast and crew for a very moving production of ‘night Mother. A drama of this nature can be very difficult, but Rachel and her very talented cast pulled it off in a sensitive, yet powerful way.

Another board member has decided to leave the board for personal reasons. I wish to thank Kim Catucci for her service to the board, and welcome Roger D’Aquino as her replacement. Roger is no stranger to CP, having conducted or played in the pit orchestra for many of our musicals.

By the time you are reading this, County Players will have a brand-new storage building at our scene shop property. This will allow us to store more furniture and set pieces to help improve our settings. Big thanks to Bill Peckham for organizing this project from the start. Also thanks to Doug Woolley, Mike Walker, and Joe Cassidy for helping out.

When you come to see Broadway Bound probably one of the first things that you will notice is the newly-remodeled concession stand. Thanks to Richard Pointer, Howard Kapner, and Peter Edman for their design and construction efforts.
