A Big Show In A Small Space Broadway Actors To Perform In New Holland
ordan Scott Gilbert, director of the Cavod Theatre production of “A Tale of Two Cities,” thinks that staging the musical in the small theater will only enhance the telling. “It’s a big show that we are trying to make intimate in this small space, which is great for storytelling,” said Gilbert, who was the assistant producer of the show on Broadway. Gilbert chose “A Tale of Two Cities” along with Cavod artistic director Monica DePaul and Connie Dienner, director of Cavod Performing Arts. “A Tale of Two Cities” will be presented at the Cavod Theatre, 641 W. Main St., New Holland, with a special opening night themed dinner theater at 6 p.m. on Friday, Oct. 14. Cocktail attire is requested for this red carpet event. The show will also be performed at 7 p.m. on Friday, Oct. 21; at 2 and 7 p.m. on

Saturdays, Oct. 15 and 22; and at 4 p.m. on Sundays, Oct. 16 and 23. “A Tale of Two Cities” with book, music, and lyrics by Jill Santoriello is based on Charles Dickens’ 1859 novel that tells the tale of a love triangle. The story focuses on the beautiful Lucie Manette, played by Jackie Zliczewski; French aristocrat Charles Darnay, played by Alexander Weaver; and English cynic Sydney Carton, played by Bryant Martin. Walter Winston O’Neill, who took part in the Broadway production, will play Dr. Manette. Alicia Burton will play Miss Pross, and Hannah Rau will portray Madame Defarge. Set during the French Revolution, the story encompasses love and redemption in a way that parallels Cavod’s mission. The show is choreographed by Stephanie Brooks Martin, with musical direction by Amy Rau. Glen Brodersen of Sight & Sound Theatre is handling the set. See Cavod pg 4

According to Brian Frankhouser, member of the board of trustees of the New Holland Area Historical Society (NHAHS), teenagers in the mid-1800s maybe were not so different from today. John H. Hull, who would have been about 18 in 1850, carved his first and middle initials, and his last name into a brick on the Railroad Avenue side of the Kauffman Building. In 1850, See NHAHS pg 6

What’s In A Name?
Members of the cast of the Cavod Theatre production of “A Tale of Two Cities” are rehearsing the musical under the direction of Jordan Scott Gilbert.
According to Wanda Swarr, founder of Pathways school, Heritage Day began as a way for students to demonstrate what they had learned. The school invited a few re-enactors and demonstrators to join in the encampment. “That (first) year, we had a couple hundred people here, but it has just exploded and it’s so much fun,” recalled Swarr. This year’s fourth Heritage Day will be held at the school’s Brubaker Homestead campus, 414 Long Lane, See Pathways pg 5
