We sat down with Director Todd Brooks, Stage Manager Krista Freimuth, and Actor Adam Fulbright to talk about Chanticleer's upcoming production "A Chorus Line." This is a cohesive cast who are working hard but having the time of their lives, which of course, is everything community theatre should be. This is going to be a fun production, with a live orchestra, much dancing and singing with all the classic "A Chorus Line" tunes and dance moves!
Though "A Chorus LIne" was also adapted into a popular movie in 1985, for most people the story is best told on stage. The original musical was written in 1975 by Marvin Hamlisch, with lyrics by Edward Kleban, and directed by Michael Bennett. It won many Tony Awards, a Drama Desk Award, a Pulitzer Prize for Drama, and in 1984 won a Tony for longest running musical on Broadway. (It is currently the 7th longest running musical to date). The "Book" (librettists of the spoken, non-sung dialogue, and storyline of a musical play) was written by James Kirkwood, Jr. and Nicholas Dante.
The story is based on true stories and is set on the stage of a Broadway theater, and centered on seventeen Broadway dancers auditioning for roles on a chorus line.
"A Chorus Line" runs May 9-12th and 16-19th at Chanticleer Community Theatre at PACE. This is a great opportunity to see this prize winning musical!

We had the distinct pleasure of meeting Thom Davis, Dramaturg and Vice President of the Board of Directors for Voices in Alliance (VIA Omaha). VIA Omaha produced “The Inheritance Part 1” in October 2023 during their first season, and now are able to begin their 2nd Season with “The Inheritance Part 2.”
It's important to note that you can still easily see “The Inheritance Part 2” without seeing "Part 1". We do suggest, however, you hear all about "Part 2" on our podcast before you go, because Thom eloquently explains why this is such an important piece of theatre.
This two-part play was written by Matthew Lopez and won a Tony Award, the Drama Desk Award, a Laurence Olivier Award, a Critics Circle Theatre Award, and an Evening Standard Theatre Award, and a GLAAD Media Award, just to name a few. Needless to say, there has always been a lot of interest and appreciation in what this play means to so many.
”The Inheritance Part 2”opens May 10th and runs 8 performances until May 19th. There will be a talk back session after their Sunday performance on May 12th.
This production is recommended for audiences over 18.

Today our episode is with an Omaha theatre legendary favorite, the talented Dick Mueller. This is one of those podcasts you simply won't want to miss if you love theatre in Nebraska. The Firehouse Dinner Theatre, founded and produced by Dick Mueller was a Old Market staple. Mr. Mueller opened the Firehouse Dinner Theatre May 12th 1972. Back in its day, the Firehouse was one of the best of equity theatre in Omaha. And to recall of the great times there, Dick Mueller has published a book, written by himself and 25 others who worked at the Firehouse. All of them share about their most memorable moments.
Mr. Mueller's book is called “The Firehouse Memoir: For an Entreprener in the Arts, From Nightclubs to Theatre, ’Twas All Showbiz to Me." And to celebrate there will be a Book Launch Party at the old Firehouse building, now the Upstream Brewery on Sunday, April 21st from 2PM - 5PM. Stop on in to what is sure to be a festive reunion at the book launch, get a signed copy and see so many of the people who made the Firehouse so successful!

Is an egg is as close to Jesus as a person can get?
We had a "sunny-side-up of a time" with Director Kaitlyn Rudeen, and Actors Julie Fitzgerald Ryan and Sarah Dighans while talking about their upcoming production: 5 Lesbians Eating A Quiche, which opens April 5th at SNAP! Productions Omaha at Ghost Light Theatre in Bellevue.
This is a zany comedy you won't want to miss with a spontaneous and whacky fourth wall. An all female Cast, Director and Crew tell the story of five women living in 1956 who belong to the Susan B. Anthony Society for the Sisters of Gertrude Stein and are having their annual quiche breakfast (yes, it's that time of year again!) when their small town is threatened by Communists. What could go wrong with this perfectly hatched plot?
This is an interactive production that will whip up and bake the crowd into a perfectly flaky crust of antics for 90 minutes of non-stop comedy.
5 Lesbians Eating a Quiche was the winner of the 2012 NYC International Fringe Festival for best overall production and written by Evan Linder and Andrew Hobgood.
*****
Performances will be April 5-7, 12 - 15, 19 - 21.
Industry Night is Monday, April 15th.
The Brunch event and production will be April 14th from Noon to 2PM.

The Theatre Arts Guild Omaha (TAG) has been around for over 50 years, but through a series of events, including the pandemic, TAG is in jeopardy of dissolving. We talk with Dylan Peck, current President of TAG, and discuss what might happen to the organization going forward. Dylan has been keeping the organization going in hopes it will be able to continue and grow and offer more scholarships for theatre Creatives.
To join TAG, just $1 will purchase a membership, which can be completed on their website. Some TAG Night Out events (suggested donation of $5) are still happening, and Dylan hopes to resurrect TAG Meet-ups and other events for members.
Find all about it here and how you can join the TAG Board, or join as member to support Creatives in Omaha!

What happens in an old movie house with a 35 mm projector with three misfit employees? You'll find out in The Flick by Annie Baker. This play has a small cast of four UNL Theatre Students: Mekhi Mitchell plays Avery, Luke Stursma plays Sam, Sofia Drelizharz plays Rose, and Jackson Wells plays Skylar/The Dreaming Man. Today, we speak with Mekhi, and their Director, and Associate Professor of Theatre at UNL, Jamie Bullins. Find out about this fun movie, it's relationship to the film "Pulp Fiction" and how these three employees who seemingly have nothing in common, find connection with each other.
Mekhi Mitchell is a Senior at UNL Johnny Carson School of Theatre.
Jamie Bullins is an Associate Professor of Theatre with a concentration in Costume Design for the Johnny School of Theatre and Film. He came to Nebraska in 2017 after 17 years at Kennesaw State University. He has an MFA in theatrical design and scenography from the University of North Carolina Greensboro.

OmniArts Nebraska is gearing up to open their first production of the year, and their 12th season in 2024. This production isn't holding anything back and we spoke to two of the talented individuals involved in this play: Christian Novotny, Director - and Reed Westerhoff, who plays the main character, John.
This play, though visually simplistic in design and execution, is complex in story. John finds himself torn between his steady relationship with his boyfriend, and suddenly finds himself in love with a woman. There are only four actors performing in this play, along with Reed Westerhoff, the other actors are Stephen Buhler, Anthony Delaney, and Francoise Traxler. Costume design is by Sandra Zulkoski, Amelia Roth is stage manager, and technical direction is by Dustin Witte.
We had a lovely conversation with Christian and Reed about this play at The Mill at Innovation Campus, so join us in this podcast to learn more about them and this dramatic play. COCK won a Laurence Olivier Award in 2010 for an Outstanding Achievement in an Affiliate Theatre.
COCK opens February 22nd and runs through the 25th at the Johnny Carson Theater at the Lied Center for Performing Arts. It does contain adult themes and sexually explicit dialogue.

We spoke with Moira Mangiameli, Director of "Boy" at Snap Productions at the Ghost Light Theatre, and Actor Jey Nelson, who plays Samantha and Adam as the lead role in Boy, which is opening February 2nd.
Moiria and Jey talk to us about this complex play written by Anna Zeigler. The play is based on a true story of a person who was born male and due to a tragic accident during his circumcision, was raised female. The well-intentioned plan came from the doctor, who believed gender was based on how a person is nurtured, rather than on purely nature. As the main character grows up, unaware of all of the facts about their past, they battle emotionally with their feelings about themselves and try to reconcile with the information they have been told.
Performance dates for “Boy” are February 2nd through the 4th, 9th through the 12th, (the 12th is a Monday performance for the convenience of people in the industry), and 16th through the 18th.
Snap! is holding valuable talkbacks after the February 2nd and 9th performances.
The ASL performance will be February 9th.

Exciting things are happening in the new Snap! Production space at 2221 Thurston Circle in Bellevue, Nebraska! On October 6th, Snap! Productions will premiere "American Idiot" for the first time in the Omaha area. This will be a large talented cast to bring you all of the great music by Green Day and many stories throughout.
We visited the new space while they are still under construction, and it's coming together! And while we were there we were able to talk with three members of the "American Idiot" cast: Sara Scheides, Carly Frolio, and Xavier Carr. Check out this exciting production happening at SNAP!
