WINCHESTER STUDENTS TO APPEAR IN STONEHAM THEATRE'S SUMMER FESTIVAL

Nine Melrose students will be appearing in Stoneham Theatre’s young company Summer Festival 2013.  Stoneham Theatre’s young company offers year-round theatrical training and performing opportunities for children ages 7 – 18.  This year’s Summer Festival will showcase five musicals and one play:  Starmites Lite, Bye, Bye Birdie, The Wiz, Jekyll & Hyde, Bernarda Alba, and The Handless Maiden

The Wiz, the funky musical adaptation of The Wizard of Oz will feature Claire Kiewra, Rebecca Melaragni, and Abigail Sprague.  Jekyll & Hyde, a musical retelling of the classic story about a doctor whose experiments create a murderous counterpart, will feature Christina Eng , Ryan Feir, and Anna Lees.  Coco Rich and Sarah Smith can be seen in Bernarda Alba, a musical which tells the tales of a powerful matriarch, who imposes a strict rule on her household following her second husband's funeral.   And Ryan Pensavalle will appear in an adaptation of Grimm’s fairy tale, The Handless Maiden

Stoneham Theatre’s young company Summer Festival runs from August 8, 2013 through August 18, 2013.  Tickets for adults are $15.  Student tickets are $10.  For more information, call the Stoneham Theatre Box Office at (781) 279-2200, or visit www.stonehamtheatre.org
