FAIRFIELD, CA., — Solano College Theatre (SCT) is pleased to announce its spring musical, 42nd Street, directed by SCT’s Artistic Director Christine Mani.
“All our students strive for their ‘big break’ into the real business of theatre,” said Mani. “What better way to honor that hope than with a story of a young ingenue who does just that!”
42nd Street celebrates Broadway, Times Square and the magic of show biz with wit, humor, and pizzazz. At the height of the Great Depression, aspiring chorus girl Peggy Sawyer (played by Alexis Bueno) comes to the big city from Allentown PA, and soon lands her first big job in the ensemble of a glitzy new Broadway show. But just before opening night, the leading lady breaks her ankle. Will Peggy be able to step in and become a star?
The cast includes:
- Alexis Bueno, a theater major at SCC and longtime SCT performer, as Peggy Sawyer
- Gyver Bitancor, a music major and SCC Chamber Choir tenor, debuts on the SCT stage as Billy Lawlor
- Faustino Cadiz III, a Filipino-American performing artist who spends his days as a vice principal in Vallejo, as Julian Marsh
- Beth Ellen Etheridge, who recently performed Mother Superior in Nunsense at Missouri Street Theatre, joins SCT as Dorothy Brock
42nd Street is directed by Christine Mani, with choreography by Liz Andrews and musical direction by Michael Reilly. The design team includes Jeffrey Hamby (Costume Design), Carrie Mullen (Set Design), William Schmidt (Lighting Design), Alex Via (Sound Design), and Darcia Tipton (Properties Design).
