Brandon Alpert, backing Dawnn Lewis in Norman’s Ark, Ford Amphitheater<\/strong><\/p>\n

Studio graduates Taylor Pearson<\/strong> and Brandon Alpert<\/strong> made a professional appearance in the new musical Norman’s Ark, currently running nightly at the Ford Amphitheater from May 27 to June 8. It’s a modern retelling of the Noah’s Ark story suitable for the entire family. We caught a sneak preview and thoroughly enjoyed the production. We highly recommend it! For information and tickets visit the Ford Amphitheater<\/a> website<\/a>. There’s a bit of background on the show on my last blog entry.<\/a> Also, here’s<\/a> an LA Times article about the show.<\/p>\n

Congratulations to Daniella Samue<\/strong>l<\/strong> on being cast in the part of Wendy Darling in the Candelight Pavillion’s production of Peter Pan, running July 12 – August 17. For information and tickets, visit the venue website.<\/a><\/p>\n
