Luisa: Meghan Sova. She is only 17 and very sweet voice – her first leading role. I had worked with her in Ragtime at LST when she was a child, but she is definitely growing into a great actress, and she is the perfect age for Luisa.

Matt: Mark Care. I directed him in Kiss Me Kate for Miracle Players. He doesn’t’ have much experience, but is a quick study and very excited by this role.

Bell: Liz Kanner. I met Liz doing Jekyll & Hyde last year, and have seen her in Chicago, Blood Brothers, at Silhouette. She has a wonderful voice, very intelligent and talented and is a delight to work with. Her mother made The Fantasticks drape.

Huck: Rick Arnold. I also met him in Ragtime as LST. He has a great booming voice and comic character.

Henry: David O’Brien. I have worked with and directed him many times. Bombast is his specialty.

Mortimer: John Spears. I have directed John in Guys & Dolls, but didn’t know he was such a comedian. Mort is a very physical role.

Mutes: LouAnn Tasony. I have worked with LouAnn many times, both as an actress and as my Stage Manager, but she is so creative in this role, and Michael Sova. Meghan’s younger brother. He is charming & funny as the playful mute. He also plays percussion. We were both in Liberty Showcase Theatre’s Cinderella last summer. He’ll make a good Matt in another couple of years.

Lynn Graham is the Music Director. I have worked with her as 2nd keyboard on synthesizer at St. Gabriel Miracle Players, but never Music Director. She has worked extra hours to teach this music.
