Snoopy: The Musical

FARWELL – Friday and Saturday evenings May 9 and 10, 2014, at Bucktail Area High School the curtain goes up at 7 p.m. for “Snoopy: The Musical”, a musical comedy by Larry Grossman and Hal Hackady under the direction of Martena Rogers.

The characters from the Charles M. Schulz comic strip Peanuts come alive through a series of self-contained vignettes.

It’s “The World According to Snoopy” as we see Snoopy played by Aaron Kelley atop his dog house observing the goings on of Charlie Brown (Mitch Lucas) and the others. Woodstock (Stephanie Michaud) flits about the stage but does have her problems with love as she seems to have fallen in love with a worm!
Lucy (Sarah Werts) tries to help Charlie Brown with his philosophy of life.

And while in school, the group hopes that the teacher will not call on them to answer a question about the famous poet “Edgar Allan Poe”.

Meanwhile, Sally Brown (Sylvia Moore), Peppermint Patty (Rebecca Minihan), and Lucy have a happy discussion on what they’ve learned in their lives.

On Halloween, Linus (Patrick Intallura), along with a reluctant Snoopy, awaits the arrival of the Great Pumpkin in the pumpkin patch. Later, the group looks up at the sky where they imagine no clouds, but instead Mount Rushmore, dragons and twenty milk-white horses, but when asked what he sees, Charlie Brown can only sadly say, “A horsie and a duckie.” But everyone is excited for the arrival of the Easter Beagle, including the 4 member ensemble – Darrin Coleman, Nina Coover, Charlie Lefort and Hayleigh Weaver.

Snoopy’s spirits remain undaunted even though Playbeagle has rejected his many manuscripts, as “The Great Writer” begins his new story.

And as the group reflect on their friendships and realize that if “Just One Person” can change the world, they will be friends forever.

Tickets are $5 per person and can be purchased at the door for each performance. Advanced seating is suggested by calling 923-1097. Please leave your name, phone number, the preferred night’s performance and the number of tickets to be reserved.

Please join us for an evening of fun with Snoopy and the gang as the stage once again comes alive with great talent from the students at Bucktail.
