E JAMES CRONK – Managing Producer
On behalf of the 250 volunteers and professionals that make up TUTS, thank you for joining
us in Stanley Park’s historic Malkin Bowl this summer. For our 66th season, we are thrilled to
present the new production of TITANIC and the classic musical comedy THE MUSIC MAN!
As one of Vancouver’s largest theatre companies, we are fortunate to have many, many
committed people whose hard work and creativity are refl ected under the colourful and
powerful stage lights tonight. We know that you will enjoy tonight’s show, whatever show
you have come to see, and we look forward to welcoming you again when you come back
for our second show and another magical outdoor theatre experience. It is your support that has allowed
Theatre Under the Stars to entertain more than two million people from around the world for more than half a
century. Our mission remains unchanged since 1943: an evening of musical theatre magic that leaves you, our
audience, with a spring in your step, a smile on your face and a tune in your head. Enjoy the show!
SHEL PIERCY – Board President
Welcome to a night of magic! Theatre Under the Stars’ historic mandate is not only to
provide the great entertainment you will enjoy this evening, it is to provide an educational
opportunity for those seeking a career in the entertainment industry. For sixty-six seasons,
over twenty-fi ve thousand performers, musicians, designers, directors and technicians have
honed their craft and learned new skills while producing and performing in front of some
of the largest audiences in the Vancouver theatre scene. It is this dual mandate that is the
core strength of TUTS. A magical evening under the stars of pure musical theatre majesty
for many; an educational or career opportunity for others. On behalf of the TUTS Board of Directors, I want to
thank you for your support. Without you this training ground, this unique opportunity for young people, would
not exist. That it works is without question. At the Tony Awards this past June four performers from the Tony-
nominated JESUS CHRIST SUPERSTAR all had their start at Theatre Under the Stars. And this theatre company’s
impact stretches not only from coast to coast but internationally as well through the mentorship and training
opportunities in our Rising Star program. That’s why I am asking for your support by making a donation
and becoming a member. Not only are there unique benefi ts to being a TUTS member but you will also be
supporting the next generation of entertainers and storytellers whose dreams are as large as the starry skies
above you. In this world of cut-backs to the arts say “yes” to the artists and dreamers of tomorrow by becoming
a member of Theatre Under the Stars. And enjoy the show!
The 2012 Season is dedicated to Cliff Cox
On February 4th of this year, TUTS lost one of its brightest stars: Cliff Cox. Cliff was
one of the original members of the Theatre Under the Stars Musical Society, and
joined the Board in 1972. He was instrumental in the survival and success of
the company right up until his death. For forty-two years Cliff acted, directed,
was a production liaison, board member and an executive member of the Board
of Directors including its president. A consummate entertainer, he gave many
memorable performances on the TUTS stage; Fagin in OLIVER and Dick Deadeye
in HMS PINAFORE are among his most memorable characters. In recognition of his dedication and
commitment, he was honoured with a Lifetime Membership. His warm and positive spirit, and his
passion for the local theatre community have left a lasting impression on all those who were fortunate
to know him and to work alongside him. Cliff will be greatly missed. This year’s Alumni Night, Monday,
August 6th, will feature a special tribute in his honour. TUTS has launched a special fundraising
campaign to create a Cliff Cox Scholarship, and fund a very special memorial at Malkin Bowl. For details

A STANLEY PARK TRADITION!
77 years ago, the Vancouver Park Board used funds donated by former Mayor W.H. Malkin to build a band-shell
in his wife’s memory and a summer tradition was born. Malkin Bowl was originally used for afternoon concerts,
until 1940, when a group of local theatre people formed a production company called ‘Theatre-Under-The-Stars’.
Sadly, after twenty years of annual performances, increasing costs forced the original company to abandon Mal-
kin Bowl. There was a gap in Vancouver’s arts scene until 1969, when a determined group of volunteers suggest-
ed a format that used largely volunteer casts and crews. Summer theatre returned to the park and has continued
there ever since, despite challenges posed by cost, weather and a fi re that nearly destroyed Malkin Bowl.
A crucial part of the TUTS mandate is the training of young performers and stage workers who learn their craft
alongside professionals. The pages that follow list the recipients of TUTS’ annual awards, many of whom have
gone on to work in the arts after getting a start here in Stanley Park. The Grace Macdonald Award is presented
to the most promising dancer; recipients of the Aida Broadbent Award are recognized for professional con-
duct and performance; the E.V. Young Memorial Fund Scholarships are awarded to the most outstanding
non-professional performers, and the Roger and Cecilia Smith Award recognizes the contribution of the many
volunteer carpenters, painters, stage crew, make-up, costume, ushers and box-offi ce staff who bring magic to
the stage every summer.
When you read the bios of the actors and creative teams who have contributed to this season’s productions,
you will fi nd some newcomers and some who have a long-standing connection to this company. We hope that
tonight, when the curtain goes up and the stage lights go on, you will feel the same thrill so many of us do, and
decide to become an ongoing part of TUTS.

related to the continuing story of our society. We have programs dating back to 1940, together with
videotapes, photographs, clippings, audiotapes and posters. Please call Cecilia at 604.988.6041 if you
