ABERDEENCOMMUNITYTHEATRE SEASON

JUNE 12-17TUESDAY-SATURDAY, 7:30 PMSUNDAY, 2:30 PM ABERDEENCOMMUNIT Y THE ATRE.COM

Welcome to the Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice rock opera version of the last seven days of Jesus Christ’s life on earth, “Jesus Christ Superstar.” It focuses on the relationship between Judas and Jesus. I remember a fair amount of controversy when it was first produced in 1971. I always thought of it as another new way to look at the gospels, and what can be bad about that?

ACT looked at producing the show in the past and we’re glad to finally bring it to life on the Capitol Theatre stage. As always, ACT welcomes new talent the Capitol stage. This show has a fair amount of debut performers; they are denoted with an asterisk by their name in the cast list. We welcome every one of them and hope you enjoy their talents, as well as the talents of all the cast and crew for this production. Every few years we take a survey of our audience to determine who they are, what they think of their community theater and what they would like to see in the future, in order to do a better job at bringing you community theater. Please help us this year. We have made it even easier for many of you. Please take a moment to fill out the survey included with your program, or go to AberdeenCommunityTheatre.com on your smart phone and click on the 2018 Season Survey. This survey can be anonymous and then ACT will not track any of the information provided because you filled out this survey. Don’t forget to stop by between live productions and take in a movie at Capitol Cinema. We have a film screening every night in Theatre B at 7p.m. Check out CapitolCinema.com for up-to-date information on what’s showing any night. Once again, thank you for your support. Please use the back page of the program to make a vital contribution to the programs here at ACT. You can designate your funds to the new LED lighting or simply for ongoing expenses in the historic Capitol Theatre. There is another way you can help. Pierson Ford-Lincoln is helping ACT with a “Driven to Give” fund raiser this Saturday, June 16, from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Just stop out at Pierson Ford and test drive a new Lincoln vehicle. ACT will receive $20 for each person test driving a new Lincoln, and an extra $10 if you test drive two, so up to $30 per person will be donated to ACT. Lincoln will donate up to $8000 total, so please help us get as close to that maximum as possible by test driving a new Lincoln this Saturday. If you can’t make it to Pierson Ford-Lincoln, please make a contribution using the back page of your program. We can only do it with your help. Your support is much needed and even more appreciated.Thanks again for coming.

FROM THE ARTISTIC/MANAGING DIRECTOR

The late 60s brought a lot of cultural changes to the world. The most unusual (and controversial) was a public dialogue about the existence of God Himself. Time Magazine lit the fuse with a cover simply entitled, “Is God Dead?” Leave it to artists to be inspired to enter the fray. Two young artists of musical theater wrote their first commercially-produced musicals, challenging

that question. ACT audiences were treated to one of those shows two years ago, “Godspell.” Composer Stephen Schwartz’s delightful retelling of stories from the New Testament became an international hit. He continues to be a major force in musical theater today (ask anyone who’s seen “Wicked”). The other newbie was across the pond, Andrew Lloyd Webber, who along with his lyricist Tim Rice, created a concept album for a yet-to-be produced show, “Jesus Christ Superstar.” The recording became an overnight sensation, inspired a stage show and a film and countless returns to Broadway, including a live telecast this past Easter Sunday. This show presents the complex story with a rock beat and a refreshing take on these characters. Webber’s spectacular string of hits continues today, with a return to his rock youth with “School Of Rock.” It’s an unusual and happy coincidence that ACT has produced these two amazing and timeless pieces so close together. The two youthful and musical theater giants were inspired by this story, and I guess we all should be anew.

CRE

WCHRIS ANDERSON (Soldier/Men’s Ensemble) is so excited to be part of this iconic, powerful, faith-inspiring show and to check it off his “bucket list!” He also feels greatly privileged to be performing with such a talented cast. His first ACT show was another religious classic, “Monty Python’s SPAMALOT” (2012). Since then he has been a regular on stage; most recently, “The Addam’s Family” and “Sister Act.” Chris serves as a chaplain at Avera St. Luke’s, hopes you all are impacted positively by this show, and he thanks his wife, Jennifer, and family for continuing to support his acting habit.

JASON BARKMEIER (King Herod) is excited to make his second ACT appearance since moving to Aberdeen in 2016. His last ACT role was Curtis (the bad guy) in last summer’s production of “Sister Act.” Jason is thrilled to, again, share the stage with his lovely wife and sweetheart, Jennifer. Jason and Jennifer have one daughter, Eden, and Jason has three sons: Dylan, Kobe and Lucas who live in Eden Prairie, MN. Jason works for Consolidated Communications as a network operations center technician.

JENNIFER BARKMEIER (Herod Backup/Soul Singer/Women’s Ensemble) was seen last summer as Deloris in ACT’s “Sister Act.” Her acting credits include over fifty productions at ACT, Northern State University, The Theatre in the Round (Minneapolis) and the Guthrie Theatre. Jennifer is a K-8 art and music teacher in Warner, is the mom of soon to be 13-year-old twins, Ava & Jackson and soon-to-be kindergartener, Eden. Jennifer is married to Jason Barkmeier and is thrilled to be enjoying another production with him.

Eli would like to thank his wonderful family and friends for the constant love and support as he continues to make his dreams a reality.

CAST & C

REWSAMIE ELBERT (Apostle/Leper/Women’s Ensemble) is extremely honored to be joining the cast of “Jesus Christ Superstar”. She’s always been interested in music and theater and participated in shows through middle, high school and community performances in her hometown of Watertown. Samie graduated from NSU and just finished her first year of teaching second grade at Simmons Elementary.

ROBERT FAY (Old Man) Being the same age as Ron Howard – most people do not realize that being Opie was not his first child part; he started in “The Music Man” and so did Robert. Robert’s most recent projects include “The Phantom of the Opera”, “Legally Blonde” and “Mary Poppins.”

CHRISTINA FISCHER (Women’s Ensemble) is delighted to be working with this group of keen performers. She has been in several shows over her years, most recently ACT’s “The Addams Family.” She is a fire-wielding—er, free-lancing—wordsmith. Chris and her kitty cohort are currently content in Redfield.

MICHAEL GAROFALO (Men’s Ensemble/Pilate’s Guard) is once again back on stage at ACT. He is super excited to be in this production which will be his eleventh ACT show. In addition to theater, his activities include tennis, cross country, oral interp and music. He will be a junior at Roncalli High School this year. He most recently appeared as Schroeder in Roncalli High School’s production of “You’re a Good Man, Charlie Brown.”

SHELBY GLOVER (Women’s Ensemble/Soul Singer/Herod Backup) is a junior studying Musical Theatre at Northern State. Past credits include acting as herself in “Sondheim on Sondheim,” Story Teller in “The Hunchback of Notre Dame,” as well as acting as Assistant Director for “The Hunchback of Notre Dame” and “The Miraculous Journey of Edward Tulane.” This will be Shelby’s first performance with ACT and she looks forward to sharing “Jesus Christ Superstar” with you all!

MATTHEW HARMEL (Caiaphas) is thrilled to be back on stage with this gifted cast for ACT’s production of “Jesus Christ Superstar.” Matthew was last seen as the Cross-Dressing Wolf in “Shrek, the Musical” in 2015. He and his wife Lori, a fellow ACT veteran, have two children, Gabriel and Jillian.

BRANDON HEIM (Apostle/Men’s Ensemble) is a magician and videographer, loves to swing dance and is back from his first year of college at MSUM. Brandon is excited to be back at ACT for “Jesus Christ Superstar” having previously worked on shows “Sister Act” as Pablo and “Hairspray” as Stooie.

FRED HEMKE (Soldier/Herod Backup) This is Fred’s first time on stage ever (though he did play the Pope, magnificently, at the end of “Sister Act” – staff edit). He finds himself incredibly lucky to be working with so many incredible musicians. He thinks that Mary Marion is doing a great job teaching the cast their voices and music. Fred really hopes you enjoy the show.

RACHEL HEMKE (Women’s Ensemble/Herod Backup/Soul Girl) is excited to be back on stage, especially for one of her favorite shows of all time! She’s sharing the stage with her husband, Fred, and is having fun with him and her other castmates. She is the music coordinator at Good Shepherd Lutheran and mother to Charlotte and Peter.

HALEY HUBBARD (Soul Singer/Herod Backup/Women’s Ensemble) is thrilled to be back in the Hub City after a brief hiatus to Minneapolis. While she was away, she performed in two professional productions. She decided she missed being in ACT shows such as “White Christmas” and “Exit Laughing”, so she exited to get back on the Aberdeen theater scene! Haley’s main passion is theater, but others include cross-stitching, tacos and true crime podcasts.

ERIC JACOBSEN (Leper/Men’s Ensemble) is a 10th grader, in show choir, vocal jazz, all-state chorus and theater. This is his first real ACT show after being in YPT for years.

DIANE LEITHEISER (Apostle/Maid by the Fire/Women’s Ensemble) An eight-year volunteer, Diane was last seen as Grandma Addams in “The Addams Family.” Diane is excited to be back on stage again in this classic show. Diane teaches Family & Consumer Sciences at Simmons Middle School and directs the school play. She loves to quilt and bake in her spare time.

RICHARD LEWIS (Priest #1) This is Richard’s return to stage aver a multi-decade hiatus. Don’t ask him why he did this because he really doesn’t know. Carleen Jaspers, star of “Wit,” (she was amazing) quoted Kobi Yamada: “Every now and again bite off more than you can chew.” Richard whole-heartedly agrees! Life is short.

MICHAEL LYTLE (Simon Zealotes) Originally from Rapid City, SD, Michael Lytle is a junior at Northern State University studying vocal music. “Jesus Christ Superstar” is Michael’s debut performance for the Aberdeen Community Theatre. Past theater credits include portrayal of Henry in “Next to Normal,” Dorante in “The Metromaniacs” and Phoebus in “The Hunchback of Notre Dame.”

NANCY MILLER (Apostle/Women’s Ensemble) is a native of Aberdeen and has been in involved with ACT since “Music Man” in 1990. Nancy was last seen on stage as a Nun in “Sister Act” and as one of the Ancestors in “The Addams Family.”

DAVE NIKOLAS (Priest #3/Men’s Ensemble) This isn’t Dave’s first ACT production but, to him, it sure feels that way. The last time Dave was on the ACT stage was 1985 for the play “Fiddler on the Roof.” He feels rusty but is also very excited to get back “into the ACT. He is also married and has two sons and three grandchildren. He is a retired elementary school counselor.

CERELIA “SAM” PHARRIS (Women’s Ensemble) is 13 years old and just graduated from middle school. She is also very excited to be in her first ACT show. She has made friendships already and is ready to make many more.
