Brian’s expert portrayal of Red Skelton will have you in stitches as he re-creates some of Red’s most well known characters. Laugh with Clem Kadiddlehopper, that dim-witted country bumpkin. Giggle along with Gertrude and Heathcliffe, the two seagulls. Feel the love of Freddy the Freeloader, the hobo who lived in the city dump.

Junior Theater Intensive
Matilda has astonishing wit, intelligence... and special powers! She's unloved by her cruel parents but impresses her schoolteacher, the highly loveable Miss Honey. Matilda's school life isn't completely smooth sailing, however – the school's mean headmistress, Miss Trunchbull, hates children and just loves thinking up new punishments for those who don't abide by her rules. But Matilda has courage and cleverness in equal amounts, and could be the school pupils' saving grace!
Registration open March 2nd at 10:00am
Intensive: June 1st - 12th weekdays 9am to 4pm

Matilda Wormwood: The hero of the show. She’s brilliant, resilient, creative, and kind, despite growing up in difficult circumstances.
Eric, Amanda, Bruce, Hortensia, Alice, Tommy, Lavender, and Nigel: students at school with Matilda.
Mr. Wormwood: He is egotistical, rude, and not very bright, not to mention a liar.
Mrs. Wormwood: Like her husband, she dislikes Matilda and does not understand why her daughter loves to read. She is selfish, obsessed with her own appearance, and believes everything she sees on TV.
Michael Wormwood: He is not very bright, though he is the apple of his father’s eye.
Mrs. Phelps: The kindly librarian who loves hearing Matilda’s stories.
Escapologist: A character of Matilda’s creation. Everything this character does is grand and exaggerated – he’s performing for the cheap seats!
Acrobat: A character of Matilda’s creation.
Miss Honey: She is kind, is generous, and really cares about the children despite her own desperate circumstances.
Agatha Trunchbull: The quintessential terrifying tyrant. As headmistress, she runs her school like a dictator, making up arbitrary rules to suit her every whim and dreaming up creative punishments.
Ruolpho: Mrs. Wormwood’s self-obsessed dance teacher.
Sergei: A custoner swindled by Mr. Wormwood.
Ensemble: including Russians, Little Kids, Big Kids, Kids, Mums, Dads, the Cook, and the Mechanic.

Lucky, Patch, Penny, and Pepper: Perdita and Pongo’s funny and spirited pups, can be cast from your larger puppy ensemble.
Perdita and Pongo: the puppies’ parents, have similar dispositions to their owners, Roger and Anita.
Roger: husband to Anita, soft-spoken yet confident composer and owner of Pongo and Perdita
Anita: wife of Roger, is a sweet and nurturing painter whose kind disposition acts as a stark contrast to Cruella's cruelty
Cruella De Vil: she is the rich, fashion-forward antagonist of the story who harbors a penchant for puppy fur.
Horace and Jasper: Cruella’s two henchmen for hire, provide the show’s comic relief à la Abbott and Costello or Laurel and Hardy.
Nanny: the warm yet outspoken housekeeper to Roger and Anita.

Sergeant Tibbs: the army cat that rallies the Dogs of London to rescue the puppies.
