A COLLECTIVE CY
The star-studded cast includes Jake Borowski, Stasha Case,  Val Dodd,  JC Dresslaer, Phil Eatherton, Chris Gleeson, Vanessa Harper,  Pam Haskin, Courtney Koval,  Kristin Leathers, Christina Schafer Martin, David Martin, Kipp Simmons, Greg Toplikar, Stacey Stofferahn, and Reed Uthe.

Director Shelly Stewart says "A few years ago Kevin Hershberger had this idea for putting together a revue of Cy Coleman music.  He has tremendous passion for the man's music.  That passion is pretty contagious, so we decided to make his dream come true and presented the idea to the OCTA board.  We want to create a special evening for OCTA supporters.  I think it's the first time a baby grand piano will be on the OCTA stage, courtesy of Bob and Kaye Martin.  We'll also have a 9-piece band and 16 wildly talented performers to bring Cy's music to life."

Music Director Hershberger has spent the last year arranging the music for the 9-piece band.  "It's been a labor of love for Kevin", says Stewart.  "I think OCTA audiences are in for a special treat - a show created just for them."

Opening night May 7th will be a formal affair with a pre-show reception and silent auction.

Performances are scheduled for May 7, 8, 9*, May 14, 15, 16*.
Our Sunday matinee begins at 2:00 PM and all other shows begin at 8:00 PM.
