WaterTower Theatre Producing Artistic Director Terry Martin today announced the cast for the The Explorers Club, a co-production with Stage West, running January 16-February 8, 2015 at the Addison Theatre Centre. The ensemble cast features John-Michael Marrs as Lucius Fretway, Thomas Ward as Harry Percy, Dana Schultes as Phyllida Spotte-Hume, Michael Ulmer as Luigi, Aaron Roberts as Professor Cope, Mark Shum as Professor Walling, Michael Corrolla as Professor Sloane, Jeff McGee as Sir Bernard Humphries and Kyle Igneczi as Beebe. Making their WaterTower Theatre debuts will be Michael Corrolla, John Michael-Mars, Aaron Roberts and Michael Ulmer.

The Explorers Club is made possible, in part, by Liberty Capital Bank, Million Air Dallas, Barbara and Bob Bigham: the Baylor Oral Health Foundation.

The creative team for The Explorers Club is led by Director Jim Covault. The team includes Clare DeVries as Set Designer, Michael Robinson as Costume Designer, Bryant Yeager as Lighting Designer, Lynn Lovett as Properties Designer, and Kellen Voss as Sound Designer. The Stage Manager is Peggy Kruger-O'Brien, Assistant Stage Manager is Jessica Pettit and Vicki Caroline Cheatwood is the Dramaturg.

It's London, 1879, and The Explorers Club is in crisis: a woman is campaigning for admittance; a savage has slapped Her Majesty, inciting a war; the Irish are probably Jewish and a beloved pet snake has swallowed a guinea pig. When an angry English Guard surrounds the club, what's a gentleman explorer to do? Sit back and enjoy a brandy and cigar, naturally. This is the preposterous premise of Nell Benjamin's madcap comedy that will have you bending over with laughter!

Tickets for The Explorers Club go on sale December 9th at 12 noon online at www.watertowertheatre.org, in person by visiting the box office at the Addison Theatre and Conference Centre at 15650 Addison Road, Addison, Texas 75001 or by phone at 972-450-6232. Tickets start at $22; preview prices start at $20.
