FROM THE DIRECTOR

John Steinbeck said this about laughter…From the Grapes of Wrath.

It was her habit to build up laughter out of inadequate materials.”

I feel this more deeply as my journey expands into something that, at its best, was unexpected, and at its worst feels like a betrayal.

These last years have torn down our safe walls leaving so many searching for those happy days that brought us that contented sleep of youth. Let us rouse the gods of comedy. Wake the sleeping Titans with laughter. Let us shout and clap and find the belly laugh that came so easily to us as children. This performance tonight should lift your soul and leave you full of that amazing joy that has seemingly been out of your reach.

Laugh, clap, repeat, and leave these rafters ringing for the Actors and Actresses giving you this most wonderful gift called Comedy.

Love to you Joseph…you always have been able to make me laugh. You are my earth heart.

Jennifer J. Westfall

Director

SYNOPSIS

Take your seats at CenterPoint Theatre for The Play That Goes Wrong and be transported into the charming theater of The Cornley Polytechnic Drama Society. It’s the opening night of their new production – the 1920’s murder mystery ‘Murder at Haversham Manor‘. As the show’s title might suggest, the opening night does not go as smoothly as hoped. The dauntless troupe struggles bravely to reach the final curtain of their murder mystery play while coping with missed lines, lost props, and poorly built scenery.

2022 SEASON

We are thrilled about our upcoming 2022 Season at CenterPoint Legacy Theatre. Whether you are a long-time part of our CPT family or a new season ticket holder, the lineup for 2022 is packed with shows that will keep you coming back again and again.

They say laughter is the best medicine, so get ready for a much-needed dose delivered up in The Play That Goes Wrong. Set in the 1920s, the actors of The Cornley Polytechnic Drama Society do their level best to uphold the time-honored adage that “the show must go on” as they present to you the opening night of “Murder at Haversham Manor”. Quickly things go from bad to disastrous, and with an unconscious leading lady, a corpse who can’t seem to play dead, and actors who not only trip over their lines, but everything else on stage, you have the recipe for a riotous dose of healing laughter!

It’s IMPOSSIBLE not to love the Broadway revival of Rodgers and Hammerstein’s Cinderella. This beautifully staged show is filled with romance, hope, unforgettable melodies, and of course, magic. It’s the perfect show for the whole family!

Big Fish is a heartfelt, powerful, and truly magical musical about fathers and sons, and the stories we use to define and shape our lives. The music is as beautiful and powerful as the story, and you just may walk away with some new favorites.

Go Go Go Joe! One of the most enduring musicals of all time, Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat is a reimagining of the Biblical story of Joseph, his father Jacob, eleven brothers, and the envy of their favored brother with his coat of many colors. Written by Tim Rice and Andrew Lloyd Webber, this show is a musically eclectic journey masterfully told using different genres of memorable tunes you’ll be singing long after. Joseph is a great show for the entire family.

Bright Star is a beautifully written musical about a young woman growing up in the Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina. We see her first as a young carefree woman and then watch how her life changes as she becomes a well-to-do magazine editor 22 years later. Her story is inevitably woven with that of an idealistic young man named Billy, with whom she shares a mysterious connection. The bluegrass score, (written by actor Steve Martin and Edie Brickell) provides a rich musical palette with which this story is painted.

The best way to spread Christmas cheer is to see Elf, The Musical. This wildly popular musical is packed with all the magical ingredients needed for the perfect start to your Christmas season. Come along with Buddy the Elf on his adventure to find his dad and ultimately save Christmas!

STEPPING INTO DAD'S SHOES

In CenterPoint Legacy Theatre’s production of The Music Man, Russell Maxfield gets to honor his Father in a unique way: by figuratively and literally walking in his shoes. As a child, Russell had the opportunity to play Winthrop while his Dad played Harold Hill for Pages Lane Theatre production. Now, Russell takes on the role of Harold Hill while his Father joins the ensemble and he might even get to wear a pair of his Dad’s Harold Hill shoes on stage.

Russell grew up knowing and loving the music and story of The Music Man, but now sees how deep the storyline goes. He feels like there are many connections to our lives in Centerville and Davis County. He says, “The good guy really starts off as the bad guy. He ends up changing the town and the town changes him.” Russell began on the stage at age 6 at Pages Lane Theatre, with Ralph Rodgers being a big part of why he originally began acting. While playing the part of Winthrop, Russell tried to learn the trumpet but eventually steered toward vocal performances. As a young boy he remembers seeing The Music Man’s Director, Shelby Ferrin, play Joseph in Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat and it inspired Russell to play the same role as an adult. Some of his favorite roles have been when he’s playing the good guy, like Joseph, or the bad guy, like Gaston in Disney’s Beauty and the Beast. With the role of Harold Hill, Russell feels like he gets to explore both those character types.

Russell is happy to be back at CenterPoint where he knows the people from the community where he grew up. He appreciates that CenterPoint is a community theater with high quality performances. He encourages people to come find something new in The Music Man. He notes, “The Music Man feels like the original Hamilton. There is so much fast, rhythmic speaking that almost feels like rapping. The more you get into the music and story it is even better than you will remember.” He hopes that audiences will enjoy this look into a time when a small community learns to welcome differences that add value to their lives.
