Towle Youth Theater Ensemble Presents Clue the Musical

Clue-the-MusicalThe Towle Youth Theater Ensemble is proud to present their newest production, Clue: The Musical based on the popular Parker Brother’s Board Game. The production is under the direction of Managing Director, Jeff Casey with Musical/Vocal Direction by Elizabeth Tuazon.

The internationally popular game is now a fun filled musical which brings the world's best know suspects to life and invites the audience to help solve the mystery: who killed Mr. Boddy, in what room and with what weapon. There are 216 possible solutions. The audience plays along and deduces the solution from clues given throughout this fun filled evening.

The cast of Clue: The Musical includes some returning ensemble members as well as some new members. Lauren Florek as the Detective (Munster), Claire LeMonnier as Mrs. Peacock (Munster), Jeremy Miller as Mr. Green (Flossmoor, IL), Harry Ogrentz as Mrs. White (Chicago, IL), Jack Reed As Mr. Boddy (Homewood, IL), Thomas Speranza as Professor Plum (Munster), Peyton Tinder as Miss Scarlet (Beecher, IL) and Sergio Zarate as Col. Mustard (Whiting). Elise Bereolos and Aaron Cappello (both from St. John) are the Co-Assistant Directors for the production.

The students take the stage on October 19-20, 26-27. Saturdays at 8pm and Sundays at 2pm. Tickets are $10 and can be purchased by calling the Towle Theater box office at 219-937-8780 or visit www.towletheater.org.

The concept behind The Towle Youth Theater Ensemble is to allow the youth participation in theater production, but not necessarily a role in each show presented. With the diverse range of talent selected to be in TYTE, the Ensemble is cast from on-stage, technical, administrative and marketing duties as appropriate. The overall mission is to build a team of theater artists and leaders, not just actors. It is the goal of this program to encourage participation in the overall process of creating theater, not just being in a particular show. The Towle staff believes that this process will bring more value to the participants, to their creative process and ultimately to each production. The Towle holds auditions twice a year and will be seeking enthusiastic students with the most drive, dedication and commitment to the Ensemble as a whole.

The Towle Theater is located in historic downtown Hammond at 5205 Hohman Avenue. Free, well-lit, secured parking is available off of Fayette Street only steps away from the back entrance or in the parking lot directly across the street from the theater on Hohman Avenue.
