COLONNADE NEWSLETTER

June 2015 Ever After Productions, under the direction of Jonathan Humble and Jaimie Derigiotis by spe-cial arrangement with Theatrical Rights World-wide will present “Big Fish”. BIG FISH is a new Broadway musical featur-ing music and lyrics by Tony nominee Andrew Lippa (The Addams Fam-ily, The Wild Party) and a new book by esteemed screenwriter John August (Big Fish, Charlie and the Choco lat e Factory). Based on the celebrated novel by Daniel Wallace and the acclaimed film directed by Tim Burton, BIG FISH centers on Ed-ward Bloom, a traveling

salesman who lives life to its fullest… and then some! Edward's incredi-ble, larger-than-life stories thrill everyone around him – most of all, his devoted wife Sandra. But their son Will, about to have a child of his own, is determined to find the truth behind his father’s epic tales. Overflowing with heart, humor and spectacular stagecraft, BIG FISH is an extraordinary new Broad-way musical that reminds

us why we love going to the theatre – for an ex-perience that's richer, fun-nier and BIGGER than life itself. Ever After Productions’ BIG FISH will splash onto the Colonnade stage June 19, 20, 26, 27@7:30pm and June 20, 27@1:00pm. Interpreta-tion for the deaf will be June 19th. All seats are reserved and tickets are o n s a l e no w a t The Colonnade Box Of-fice. Ticket prices range from $10-$15. Call today to get your reserved seat 706-935-9000.

The Colonnade Players under the direction of James Ogden and Roy Denton, by special arrangement with Music Theatre International (MTI). will present “Pippin” on July 24, 25 and 31 and on August 1, 2015. All authorized performance materials are also supplied by MTI. (421 West 54th Street, NewYork, NY 10019. Phone: 212-541-4684, Fax: 212-397-4684) Led by the Leading Player, a troupe of performers tell the story of Pippin. They suggest adventures and become par-ticipants on Pippin’s quest to find the greater meaning in life.

Pippin and his father Charle-magne are characters based on real-life individuals in the Mid-dle Ages, though that is the only true history in the telling of Pippin’s story which is the timeless struggle of young men to make their way in the world and discover what will leave them happy and fulfilled. Pippin’s path takes him to the battlefield, to the throne once held by his father, and leads him to love. Join our troupe of performers as they become the troupe of performers that help tell the story of Pippin and his search to find meaning in his life. Due to some dark subject mat-ter surrounding war, this play

may not be suitable for all ages. Performances will be held July 24, 25, 31 & August 1st at 7:30p. A matinee will be held on August 1st at 1:00pm. Tickets are for reserved seating and advance purchases are rec-ommended. Prices range from $11 to $15. For tickets and information, contact The Col-onnade Box Office at 706-935-9000.

The Catoosa Community Playhouse to Hold

Auditions for “Cinderella”

COL ONNA DE NE WSL ET TE R

The Catoosa Community Play-house cordially invites you audition for the Royal Ball. On June 1st and 2nd at 6 p.m. The Catoosa Community Playhouse will hold Auditions for the be-loved musical, Cinderella. There are roles available for perform-ers of all ages. A godmother, of the fairy variety, inquires of her two helpers about the neediest case in the kingdom. Not sur-prisingly, they introduce her to Ella, who, after being orphaned, was left in the care of her wicked stepmother and stepsis-ters. Forced to use the kitchen

as a bedroom, Ella can often be found daydreaming among the cinders from the fireplace, inspiring her stepfamily to re-name her "Cinderella." Wand in hand, Godmother sets about to change the girl's life. With a dash of belief, a sprin-kle of magic, and a pinch of true love, Cinderella has her life changed for good. (Prince Street Players –Music Theater International). Directed by Melissa Adams with musical direction by Amy Carter, this production is sure to entertain audiences of all

ages. This is your chance to be part of the magic. The Catoosa Community Play-house, by special arrangement with Music Theatre Interna-tional (MTI). will present “Cinderella” on August 21, 22, 28 and 29.
