Don't miss this hilarious show! TBT and the St. Pete Times are calling it a hot ticket, but we still have seats available! The music is Puccini, so you can be sure it's beautiful (and everyone knows the famous aria - even if you think you don't, trust me, you've heard it ...). The cast is ready to go (and terrific in these roles) and the musical ensemble rocks! What with Mark Sforzini on bassoon and conducting, Josh Quinn on keyboard, Fred Gratta on cello, and Michael Galvin on violin, what's not to like?
We've brought in Richard Cassell from New York as Schicchi, Adam Hall as Rinuccio, Fred Furnari, Kelly Griffin, and Anthony Zoeller as relatives, and the rest of the cast is locals, including Phoenix Gayles as Lauretta (she gets the best song and does it splendidly), Melissa Misener, Joseph Peterson, Thomas Massey, Brian Westlund, John William Short, and the husband and wife team of Michelle Rego and Rim Karnavicius (except they're not married to each other in this show). Making his stage debut is the effervescent Randolph Rose and if you can find a cuter seven year old, bring him on!Videos
