LACONIA — The cast and crew of The Streetcar Company's upcoming presentation of Roger Miller’s “Big River" are hard at work preparing for the show's April opening. This country-western themed musical based on Mark Twain’s, “Huck Finn” will be presented at Inter-Lakes High School Friday through Sunday, April 27-29.
After well attended auditions in January, director J. Alward has assembled a dedicated company of both returning veterans and new actors to the Streetcar Company. Principle roles are played by Angel Douglas (Jim), Riley Alward (Huck), Bo Guyer (King), Scott Alward (Duke), Doreen Sheppard (Widow Douglas), and David Nelson (Pap Finn). The company features 30 talented singers/actors from around the Lakes Region.
Director Alward and Assistant Director Frank Stetson are working with the production staff to fine tune the behind the scenes arrangements that help pull the show together. Some of those heading up the various positions include Raelynn Cottrell a producer, Phil Bretton as the music director, Josh Martin as the vocal director, Mark Lambert designing the set, Peter Ayer, organizing props, and Oriana Filleut creating the costumes.
