Can you sing at the same time in more than one key? Duets by Rossini and waltzes by Strauss?
And can you (as cats do) begin with a ‘c’? That always triumphantly brings down the house!
A principal-singing cat, we come at you next with Emily Garner in our full-cast series “Jellicles Can and Jellicles Do”, featuring the 27 performers in Tidewater Players’ production of Andrew Lloyd Webber’s Cats.
Are you ready Havre de Grace? AYE-AYE, CAPTAIN! I can’t heeeaaar you! AYE-AYE CAPTAIN! Who lives in a pineapple under the sea? Appearing at Tidewater Players is he! If nautical nonsense be something you wish! Then get your tickets right now and have fun with the fish! At The SpongeBob Musical now appearing live, in-person on the Havre de Grace Opera House stage with Tidewater Players! Directed and Choreographed by Bambi Johnson with Musical Direction by Nathan Scavilla,
High above the town, flying down, better catch it quick— it’s better than ole Saint Nick— and it may still be in other locales— but somewhere hovering over Tidewater Players…across the whole opera house stage and straight to you…comes A Christmas Story. That’s right, kids— and kids at heart— after waiting for ages in line at Higbee’s, you’ve asked Santa for that irresistible major-award of a musical, and he’s delivered— because what’s the harm in simply watching Ralphie Parker shoot his eye out with his Official Red Ryder Carbine-Action Two-Hundred-Shot Range Model Air Rifle with a compass in the stock and this thing that tells time?
You’ll shoot your— wait. No. That’s later. Before you shoot your eye out with your Official Red Ryder Carbine-Action Two-Hundred-Shot Range Model Air Rifle with a compass in the stock and this thing that tells time, have your turkey gobbled up by the Bumpuses hellhound dogs, and do the leg-lamp kick-line for your Major Award, settle into 1968 at the Harper’s Hardware Store annual Christmas Party! And guess what? There’s a wintery surprise— because this year?
Scottfield Theater Company has a dream, a song to sing… and sing it they do! Running October 5-7 and 12-14 in the Cultural Center of Havre de Grace, this production of Mamma Mia is stuffed to the brim with infectious energy, uproarious laughter, and an impressive performance of pop monolith ABBA’s timeless catalog.
Mamma Mia tells the story of Sophie and Donna, a daughter and her single mother in their journey to discover who Sophie’s father was and face the memories Donna has of her three old flames and potential father for her daughter.
