Two Prince Productions, in collaboration with Bill Reed Voice Studio and Jen and Tim Barden of Spotlight Vermont, will present CALVIN BERGER: A MUSICAL at Spotlight Vermont in South Burlington with performances on Friday, January 13 at 7:30pm, Saturday, January 14 at 7:30pm and Sunday, January 15 at 4pm and 7pm. Calvin Berger is a musical with book, lyrics, and music written by Barry Wyner and is loosely based on Rostand's Cyrano de Bergerac. The timeless story of Cyrano de Bergerac is one of the most famous romances of all time. Calvin Berger cleverly retells this story of unrequited feelings, love notes and physical insecurity in the high school setting. The musical stars local high school students Jonathan Barden (Colchester High School), Sam Dickin (Rice Memorial High School), Victoria Fearn (South Burlington High School) and Rebecca Gardner (South Burlington High School), with artistic direction by Gina Fearn and music direction by Randal Pierce.
All proceeds from this production will benefit Special Olympics Vermont through the organization’s Penguin Plunge event. Special Olympics Vermont is part of a global movement that works year round to foster acceptance and inclusion of people with intellectual disabilities by using the power of sport to showcase their gifts and abilities. The Special Olympics Vermont Penguin Plunge is a popular winter event at Burlington Waterfront Park. On February 4, 2017, more than 1,200 brave Plungers will jump into icy Lake Champlain to raise funds and awareness for athletes with Intellectual disabilities.
Special Olympics Unified Champion Schools offer Unified Sports opportunities where students with and without intellectual disabilities play on the same team. Through the Penguin Plunge, students raise critical funds to support Unified Sports offerings in 64 schools statewide. Proceeds from the production of Calvin Berger will be directed to the Special Olympics Vermont Penguin Plunge teams representing the actors’ three schools.
Tickets: $15 for adults and $10 for students, available at the door and online at Eventbrite.com or www.billreedvoicestudio.com/calvin-berger-musical
