Volunteers Tansform the State Theatre into the Paris Opera House 2/4

By:

Bay Street Players will open Phantom, The American Musical Sensation February 4, 2011. This musical will run four weeks through February 27, 2011 at the historic State Theatre in downtown Eustis. Phantom is generously sponsored by Bowen Radson Schroth, PA.

Tony award-winning composer Maury Yeston and author, Arthur Kopit of Broadway's Nine and Titanic have transformed Gaston Leroux' novel The Phantom of the Opera into a sensation that enraptures audiences and critics with beautiful songs and an expertly crafted script. It is constructed around characters more richly developed than in any other version, including the original novel. This mesmerizing Phantom is traditional musical theatre in the finest sense and is sure to capture your heart.

Artistic Director David W. Clevinger serves as the Scenic Designer as well as the Director of the production. His creative team includes: William Dumas as Lighting Designer; Kate Olsen & Patrick Adams as Costume Coordinators and a crew of community volunteers assisting in all areas of the production. Bay Street Players is pleased to welcome newcomer Beau Mahurin as Musical Director.
