SUMMARY:CANCELED - Billy Elliot
DESCRIPTION:More information about updates to the Guild’s 2019-20 Theater Season can be found in an announcement here. \nSet during the 1980’s British miners’ strike\, motherless\, working-class Billy Elliot dreams of being a professional ballet dancer. However\, his father and brother want nothing to do with the so-called “nonmasculine” art of dance\, and Billy’s teacher resolves to give Billy secret dance lessons so that he can audition for the Royal Ballet school. The winner of 14 Tony\, Olivier\, and Drama Desk awards\, including Best Musical\, Book\, and Original score\, Billy Elliot is an exploration of how we can find our place and passions in an unbalanced world. The empowering music is by Elton John\, with book and lyrics by Lee Hall\, who wrote the original film screenplay of the same name.

SUMMARY:CANCELED - Grey Gardens
DESCRIPTION:The Guild has suspended all large events through the end of April\, including our production of Grey Gardens. There are no immediate plans to reschedule\, given what we hope is a busy summer with The Lion in Winter and Billy Elliot the Musical. \nGrey Gardens is a musical that tracks the lives of two mother/daughter socialites (the aunt and cousin to Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis) as their lives fall from glittering\, wild extravagance to seclusion in a crumbling estate overrun by cats. As the mother is left bedridden\, and her daughter comes to grapple with the loss that has left them destitute\, the pair try to reconcile their relationship and missed opportunities. As hilarious as it is tragic\, the musical was nominated for numerous Tony and Drama Desk awards\, as well as a Grammy nomination for its enrapturing score. Grey Gardens is a heartfelt musical wrought with humor\, wit and compassion- with book by Doug Wright\, music by Scott Frankel\, and lyrics by Michael Korie\, based on the 1975 documentary of the same name. Directed by Mishia Edwards. \n

SUMMARY:Lend Me a Tenor
DESCRIPTION:Lend Me a Tenor is a feel-good\, farcical comedy\, a tale of unexpected romance\, hilarious gags\, and mistaken identity. Set in the early 1930s\, an opera house is on the verge of disaster when the principal tenor is unable to perform. Still\, the show must go on\, and the opera managers must scramble to find a replacement before all is lost. With a lively cast of over-the-top characters\, up-beat tunes\, and a penchant for mayhem\, Lend Me a Tenor\, by Ken Ludwig\, is an energetic\, laugh-filled romp for the whole family.  Directed by Marc Robinson.

SUMMARY:Lend Me a Tenor Auditions
DESCRIPTION:Audition Announcement!\nThe Northfield Arts Guild and director Marc Robinson are hosting auditions for our winter production of Ken Ludwig’s Lend Me a Tenor!\nAudition dates are Thursday\, October 17th\, from 6-8pm and Saturday\, October 19th\, from 2-4pm\, with potential callbacks on Sunday\, October 20th\, from 4-6pm \nRehearsals will start after the holiday season\, with performances scheduled for February 14-16 and February 21-23\, 2020. \nPerformers of all genders\, abilities\, races\, ethnicities\, and experience levels are encouraged to audition. We look forward to meeting new performers and seeing familiar faces! \nAbout the show:  \nSaunders\, the general manager of the Cleveland Grand Opera Company\, is primed to welcome world-famous Tito Morelli\, known as Il Stupendo\, the greatest tenor of his generation\, to appear for one night only as Pagliacci. The star arrives late and\, through a hilarious series of mishaps\, is given a double dose of tranquilizers and passes out. His pulse is so low that Saunders and his assistant\, Max\, believe he’s dead. In a frantic attempt to salvage the evening\, Saunders persuades Max to get into Morelli’s Pagliacci costume and fool the audience into thinking he’s Il Stupendo. Max succeeds admirably\, but Morelli comes to and gets into his other costume\, ready to perform. Now two Pagliaccis are running around in costume and two women are head over heels\, each thinking she is with Il Stupendo. A sensation on Broadway and in London’s West End\, this madcap\, screwball comedy is guaranteed to leave audiences teary-eyed with laughter. \nCharacters \n\nHenry Saunders – The Cleveland Grand Opera’s general manager. Father to Maggie. A blowhard who often loses his temper at the slightest mishap.\nMax – Saunders’ long-suffering assistant\, who is forced to take Tito’s place.\nMaggie Saunders – Saunders’ daughter\, and Max’s girlfriend; she has great admiration for Tito.\nTito Merelli – The world’s most renowned opera tenor\, and notorious ladies man.\nMaria – Tito’s long-suffering wife\, with an “Italian temper”. Leaves Tito early in the play\, but ultimately returns to him. Loves Tito\, despite his philandering.\nDiana – The opera’s ingenue soprano\, who is “flinging her way” to the top. A seductive woman (and she knows it).\nJulia – Chairwoman of the Cleveland Opera Guild\, who considers herself a “grande dame.”\nThe Bellhop – A comic relief character who has an ongoing feud with Saunders. An obnoxious opera fan\, the Bellhop keeps showing up at the hotel suite at the wrong moment\, trying to get an autograph and a photo of Tito Merelli.\n\nActors will be asked to read in pairs and trios from the script which will be emailed ahead of time when an audition slot is confirmed. Memorization is not required. \nAny men interested in the roles of Max\, Tito Merelli\, or the Bellhop should also prepare a short operatic piece to sing a capella (any song sung operatically – if it’s Hotel California operatically\, that’s great!) \nTo sign-up for a half hour audition slot\, please email Performing Arts Manager Jared Zeigler at jared@northfieldartsguild.org \nQuestions can also be sent there. We look forward to seeing you!

SUMMARY:The Great Northfield Bank Robbery: A Love Story
DESCRIPTION:September 5\, 6\, and 7\, 2019\na World Premier\nduring Northfield’s Defeat of Jesse James Days\n\n  \nPerformances:\nThursday\, September 5\, 2019 at 7:30pm\nFriday\, September 6\, 2019 at 7:30pm\nSaturday\, September 7\, 2019 at 7:30pm\n \nIn 1900\, Jim and Cole Younger\, brothers from Missouri\, had spent nearly a quarter century in Stillwater penitentiary for the notorious raid on the First National Bank of Northfield. As a movement for their pardon grew\, a young reporter for the St. Paul Pioneer Press took an interest in the Youngers’ cause.  Alix J. Muller\, already distinguished in her journalism career at the tender age of 22\, followed her nose for news and went out to Stillwater to interview Jim Younger.  Alix came back with more than just a good story. She and Jim Younger began a mutual appreciation. After the famous bank robbers and killers were released\, the relationship between Alix and Jim turned into its own story — one that shocked the upper crust of St. Paul. The star-crossed romance between an ambitious young woman of high society and an ex-con more than twice her age is a story that seems like fiction — but it was once actual news. \nHow the play came about:\nBill McAuliffe was digging through files at the Minnesota HIstory Center\, researching some now-forgotten news story\, when he came across accounts of the tragic death of bank robber and killer Jim Younger. Younger had been in love with a St. Paul journalist less than half his age\, but of course it couldn’t work. “That’s a play\,” McAuliffe thought.  “Maybe I’ll write it when I retire.” Twenty-five years later\, on his way out the Star Tribune door on his final day\, McAuliffe stopped by the desk of colleague Graydon Royce\, the paper’s long-time drama and arts critic. Was there a play here\, McAuliffe wondered? As the saying goes\, you couldn’t make this stuff up. There was definitely a play there. And here it is.\n\nThe Playwrights:\nIn his 33 years as a reporter at the Minneapolis Star Tribune\, Bill McAuliffe covered politics\, crime\, weather and other obsessions of the day. He is also an award-winning travel writer and has written a wide range of children’s non fiction books. He is a bicyclist\, bread-baker\, undiscovered guitarist and grandfather of four. He lives in Minneapolis. \nGraydon Royce is a retired theater critic and fine arts writer with the Star Tribune. He won the 2016 Ivey Award for Lifetime Achievement from the Twin Cities theater community. He has been a fellow at both the O’Neill Critic’s Institute in New London\, Conn.\, and the NEA Classical Music Fellowship at Columbia University. He is also a playwright and actor. He most recently performed in “Holiday Inn” at Chanhassen Dinner Theatre. Royce currently serves as director of artistic ministry at Diamond Lake Lutheran Church in south Minneapolis. He has four children and eight grandchildren. \nDirected by Rachel Haider\n2018 Best of Southern MN Scene Winner for Best Director\nThroughout most of her life\, Rachel has studied\, taught\, and worked in theater arts and in arts promotion and management. Her extensive resume includes work with professional\, community and educational theaters.  She has taught in private and public schools and with numerous arts organizations.

SUMMARY:Post-show Discussion with Kari Halker-Saathoff
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a post-show discussion with Kari Halker-Saathoff on Sunday\, August 4 at the Guild Theater.\n     \nSpecial exhibition at the Guild Theater\nOdysseus and Penelope: The Long Journey showcases the work of Kari Halker-Saathoff\, who has always been fascinated with stories of adventure.  In creating her interpretation\, Kari fashioned images on ceramic vessels that represent Penelope’s remarkable story\, while her illustrations tell the story of Odysseus. For many\, even those who have not read Homer’s The Odyssey\, Odysseus’ adventures are part of our cultural knowledge. Given this familiarity\, Halker-Saathoff depicts his journey within the mythological time period while reimagining the timeless and transcendent story – a story that has stayed with her throughout the years. \nWhile many of the illustration titles are inspired by the text of The Odyssey\, in contrast\, the titles accompanying each of Penelope’s vessels are inspired by the Women’s March of 2017\, as well as current news stories.  Halker-Saathoff has purposely chosen to align Penelope’s heroic journey within the present context of female struggle and empowerment. Her ambition for this show is to illuminate the many parallels between the present and 650 B.C.E.
