Seminar to focus on managing perimenopause
By Leila Kheiry leila@youarecurrent.com
A Fishers-based physician who specializes in lifestyle medicine has organized a seminar in north Indianapolis for “women of a certain age” who are navigating the symptoms of perimenopause.
WELLNESS
The daylong seminar is set for May 17 at the COHatch Broad Ripple, 6151 Central Ave.
Dr. Nabiha Gill, board certified in physical, obesity and lifestyle medicine, has been in practice for more than 20 years. She said she started exploring lifestyle medicine — managing health through lifestyle changes — during the COVID-19 pandemic.
“I really implemented lifestyle medicine strategies to myself and it helped me,” Gill said. “Personally, I was able to really lose a lot of weight, changed my hemoglobin, even changed my cholesterol and overall health.”
That success led to starting her business, Gill Lifestyle, which offers wellness and weight loss programs along with wellness seminars based on lifestyle medicine. The upcoming seminar focuses specifically on people experiencing perimenopause, a time frame when a woman’s body starts to transition toward menopause.
Perimenopause can start as early as the mid-30s and the transition can last many years before menopause, which is when women are no longer fertile. Gill said that although it affects about half the population, perimenopause is not addressed effectively in the traditional health care system.
“So, I wanted to bring all these health experts together who have really wide variety of holistic wellness experience in this area,” she said. “And then have something like a one-day-long seminar, where, when (women) attend the seminar, they get, of course, health care information, but also practical information … what they can do day to day that can help them with all these perimenopausal symptoms.”
Symptoms can include trouble sleeping, hot flashes, brain fog, mood swings, skin and hair changes and weight gain, among many others.
“We have 11 different sessions, and each session has different topics,” Gill said. “So, for example, I will address more like a lifestyle medicine and anti-aging. I’m more into whole food, plant based. So, I’m going to address how the nutrition side can help people with their anti-aging — their skin, their hair and well-being.”
Other sessions will feature Ayurvedic practitioners who will focus on the traditional Indian system that relies on a natural approach; an expert in gut health and nutrient deficiencies; a harmonic sound immersion experience; and a cooking demonstration.
“All these experts, they have all different kind of different backgrounds,” Gill said. “So, (we’re) bringing a really com-

prehensive and holistic health approach for perimenopause for women in that age group and giving them practical information that they can use.”
Gill stressed that perimenopause and menopause are normal transitions for women and those going through that transition aren’t sick — they just need help managing symptoms. She herself is in her mid-50s and has firsthand experience with the process.
“It is (a) very beautiful transition,” Gill said. “I really think that as we age, we have more wisdom and more experience and more stability. In my personal journey, I feel like this decade that I have is better than the last, and so on. So, as women, I really feel that we need to embrace that very gracefully. And we need to be comfortable to reach out to ask questions and ask for help.”

Zionsville parks department partners with local volunteers Sycamore Street home is latest Century Structure
By Marney Simon marney@youarecurrent.com
The Zionsville Department of Parks and Recreation board recently approved a memorandum of understanding with the Boone County Invasive Cooperative — a nonprofit that focuses on the removal of invasive species in Boone County — to keep bad seeds from putting down roots locally.
CONSERVATION
“We’ve been working with them through our public weed wrangles for quite a while, and now that they’ve kind of matured a little bit and have begun to have a little bit more growth in their organization it’s time to memorialize our partnership and allow them a little bit more free reign access to keep doing what they’re specialized to do — removing invasives,” Zionsville Parks and Recreation Superintendent Jarod Logsdon said.
The memorandum of understanding outlines the responsibilities of the town and
the organization.
Under the agreement, members of Boone County Invasive Cooperative will identify project sites on park properties and organize staff as needed. Projects must be approved by the superintendent of parks and recreation and include measurable boundaries, clear objectives and desired outcomes.
“We will control the project sites, because we want to build sustainable growth in our combatting of these invasives,” Logsdon said. “But we need all the partners we can get, and this is a wonderful opportunity for our park system.”
Work may include removal of invasive specialties; application of herbicides, fungicides and insecticides as needed to target undesired invasive species or reduce selected native populations; planting of native species; and installation of educational signage.
Interested volunteers can learn more at zionsville-in.gov/609/Volunteering.

SullivanMunce Cultural Center recently announced the addition of another home to its Century Structure catalog.
HISTORY
The home at 605 W. Sycamore St. is owned by Lesley Hunt. The residence, circa 1890, is a Gable Ell-style home, characterized by street-facing and side-facing gables that were popular in the late 19th and early 20th century.
The home contains several hand-painted porcelain doorknobs and painted transoms fashioned by long-time resident Flossie Pederson in the 1930’s, as well as many period-specific architectural features.
The Century Structure Program honors Zionsville’s residential and commercial historic architecture within the Village area. The program recognizes homes with a Century Structure designation at least 100 years old or a Heritage Home designation at least 75 years old. Thir-
ty-six structures have been approved by the eight-member Century Structure Committee to date.

Discover Boone County earns tourism awards
RECOGNITION
Discover Boone County, the county’s tourism organization, was recently recognized with three awards from the Indiana Tourism Association during the annual Indiana Tourism Conference.
Boone County earned Best Advocacy Initiative, Best Cooperative Partnership and Best New Experience at the event.
The Best Advocacy Initiative was awarded for the “Boone Hearts Boone” program — a grassroots relief effort connecting Boone County, Ind, with Boone, N.C., after Hurricane Helene. The North Carolina community serves as a tourism destination and was devastated by historic flooding during the hurricane that made landfall on Sept. 26, 2024.
The “Boone Hearts Boone” initiative assisted in collecting donations and cold-weather gear for the community. Donations were collected at locations throughout Boone County including Zionsville Town Hall, the Whitestown Municipal Complex and the Zionsville and Whitestown branches of Hussey-Mayfield Memorial Public Library.
“When our town was devastated by Hurricane Helene, (Boone County, Ind.) showed up in the most incredible way, bringing a 27-foot U-Haul filled with donated supplies to support our recovery,” stated Lane Moody, Downtown Development Coordinator for the Town of Boone, N.C. “We are so, so grateful for the generosity of our friends in Boone County, Ind. and this recognition is a testament to their hard work, creativity and heart.”
The Best Cooperative Partnership was awarded for Discover Boone County’s collaboration with Purdue University’s EPICS program and the Get Mooned in Boone initiative. The partnership connected Purdue engineering students with Boone County’s tourism efforts to create unique visitor experiences during the April 8, 2024, total solar eclipse.
The Best New Experience was awarded for Stone Eater Bike Park. The park in Lebanon on U.S. 52 has quickly become a popular attraction for biking enthusiasts, providing state-of-the-art trails, challenging courses and an inclusive environment for riders of all skill levels.
“We developed Stone Eater Bike Park to be a world-class, family-friendly riding center and a natural outdoor recreation facility,” Lebanon City Engineer Kevin Krulik stated. “We wanted to create a vital hub for the local cycling community and a destination for the over 6 million cyclists in the greater Midwest region.”
The Indiana Tourism Association Awards celebrate excellence in tourism development and recognize the impact of organizations that drive economic growth through innovative and sustainable tourism practices.
“These awards are a testament to the hard work, creativity, and collaboration that define Boone County’s tourism efforts,” Discover Boone County CEO Allyson Gutwein stated. “We are honored to receive these recognitions from the Indiana Tourism Association and look forward to continuing to grow and enhance our tourism initiatives. Each of these projects represents our commitment to community engagement, innovation, and visibility of our experiences for both residents and visitors.”

Fishers guard makes significant strides in sophomore season
By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com
The growth of Fishers High School sophomore guard Jason Gardner Jr. was a major factor in the team’s return to the IHSAA Class 4A boys basketball state championship game.
Gardner averaged 14.5 points per game for the Tigers, who finished 30-1 after losing to Jeffersonville in the March 29 final. Last year, he averaged a little more than 6 ppg for Fishers, which won the state title in 2024.
“I had to get used to the high school level,” Gardner said. “Coming from eighth grade to freshman (year) is a big step with the strength, IQ and speed of the game. I made that jump before (my) sophomore year in AAU and that gave me confidence and translated (into my) sophomore year.”
Gardner, a backup as a freshman, moved into the starting lineup as a sophomore.
“Jason has improved tremendously in all areas of his game, but his biggest growth has come in his decision-making and his ability to read the defense, shown by his high assist numbers this season,” Fishers
JASON GARDNER JR.
Favorite athletes: Ja Morant and Anthony Edwards
Favorite musician: Rod Wave
Favorite TV show: “Stranger
Things”
Favorite movies: Marvel movies
coach Garrett Winegar said. “Along with this, he has improved as a defender and with his jump shot, showing a large increase in 3-point percentage.”
Gardner set the single-season school record for assists with 162 and had a 2.5 assist-to-turnover ratio. He improved his 3-point shooting to 39 percent.
“His ability to score and create scoring
opportunities for his teammates is secondto-none in the state,” Winegar said. Gardner is comfortable at either guard spot.
“Having another floor general in (teammate) Cooper Zachary made us better,” he said. “Cooper is more of a true point guard. I can be that combo scoring guard. But if you need me to be the point guard, I’m just as good as I am at scoring.”
Gardner certainly has the bloodlines to succeed. His father Jason Gardner was the
1999 Indiana Mr. Basketball winner after leading North Central to a 4A state title that season. The elder Gardner played at the University of Arizona and professionally overseas and was head coach of the IUPUI men’s team (now Indiana University Indianapolis) before becoming director of player relations at Arizona,
“He’s played in a lot of great places and he’s seen it all, so taking advice from him has helped,” Gardner said of his father. “I know he knows what he’s talking about. He’s played overseas. He’s coached at a high level and coached at (the) high school level.”
At 6-foot-1, Gardner is 3 inches taller than his father. At 16, he said he still might grow a couple more inches.
Gardner already has several collegiate offers, including from Purdue University, Indiana University, University of Notre Dame and University of Cincinnati.
“Jason has garnered national recruiting interest,” Winegar said. “We expect a big spring and summer for him recruiting wise.” To nominate a high school student for Athlete of the Week, contact mark@ youarecurrent.com.

Pollard to be grand marshal of AES 500 Festival parade
EVENT news@currentzionsville.com
Former NBA player Scot Pollard has been named Grand Marshal of the 2025 AES 500 Festival Parade, set for noon May 24 in downtown Indianapolis.
Pollard, a Carmel resident, is a former Indiana Pacer, an NBA Champion and three-time NBA finalist. Since retiring from professional basketball, he has turned his attention to a new mission — raising awareness about organ donation.
Pollard travels nationwide, sharing his personal story of second chances.
“Scot’s iconic checkered flag-inspired fashion, coupled with his dynamic pres ence and vibrant personality, has made him an unforgettable figure at 500 Festival events,” Bob Bryant, president and CEO of the 500 Festival, stated in a press release.
“His commitment to sharing his heart transplant journey to raise awareness about the lifechanging power of organ donation is truly inspiring. We are proud to provide a platform for his story and the vital message it carries.”
A heart transplant recipient, Pollard’s life took a dramatic turn when he underwent a vital heart procedure at Vanderbilt University Medical Center in February 2024. Pollard’s perspective on the procedure evolved when he realized how crucial it was for him to be there for his family, including his four children. Now, as a passionate advocate for organ donation,
Pollard said he is honored to serve as the grand marshal.
“One person can save a lot of lives, and I’m excited to celebrate the month of May while raising awareness about the lifesav ing impact of organ donation,” he stated.

Grant dollars benefit Boone County recreation areas
FUNDING
Jackson Run Recreation Area in Whitestown is one of several Boone County recipients of funding to merge artistic development with recreation spaces. The funds are part of the “180 in Color” initiative funded through an Indiana Regional Economic Acceleration and Development Initiative — READI — grant. More than $66,000 were secured by the Boone County Economic Development Corp. in fall 2024 to benefit artistic endeavors countywide.
Indianapolis-based artist Lance Pruitt will create a custom-designed shade structure at Jackson Run that integrates artistic elements with the park’s nature-inspired landscape, enhancing functionality and aesthetic appeal. The installment will be paid for with $58,599 of grant funding.
According to Boone EDC, public art has the power to enhance quality of life, strengthen community identity and stimulate local economies.

Morning Dove Therapeutic Riding Center, a Zionsville-based nonprofit dedicated to equine assisted therapies, is entering a pivotal phase of growth and change. This summer, the organization will temporarily relocate to a larger facility and expand services while laying the groundwork for a permanent home — an effort that will require a major fundraising campaign.
Founded in 1998, the center serves children and adults with cognitive, emotional, behavioral and physical challenges across central Indiana. Through therapeutic riding, equine-assisted learning and adaptive lessons, riders build strength, confidence and social skills.
Participants provide diagnoses from their doctor, and Morning Dove assembles a team of staff and volunteers to support their needs. Most riders are on the autism spectrum; however, the center also works with individuals facing a wide range of challenges, including cerebral palsy, ADHD, anxiety, anger issues and oppositional defiance disorder.
“In recent years, we’ve noticed an increase in riders who appear physically able-bodied, and their diagnoses are often related to emotional or behavioral conditions rather than physical disabilities,” Morning Dove Equine Director Kim McCrea said. “A lot of it seems to stem from the effects of COVID — kids being out of school, isolated and struggling with anxiety and emotional regulation.”
After 14 years at 96th Street, the organization will temporarily relocate to Boone Ridge Stables in Whitestown. The move will allow the center to grow its programming while it prepares for a permanent expansion.
“We are space and size limited,” Board Secretary Mallory Long said. “So, while we are incredibly grateful to (property owner and philanthropist) Jock Fortune, who has allowed us to remain here on this property for so many years, he has been supportive of us moving so we can expand to serve more students.”
The organization’s goal is to construct a permanent home at Wild Air Farms in

Zionsville. Morning Dove has entered into a long-term lease with the property owner, securing a future on a parcel at the 250acre grounds on Hunt Club Road. Wild Air Farms hosts the annual Traders Point Hunt Charity Horse Show.
Building from scratch will require significant funding.
“We’re working on the details of a capital campaign,” said Long. “It’s going to take a lot of money. The hope is we will have a couple of large investors and then the rest will come from donations.”
The expansion wouldn’t be possible without the support of Morning Dove’s
dedicated volunteers, who play an essential role in the organization’s daily operations. The facility relies on at least 200 volunteers each week to create a safe, engaging and enriching environment for its riders. Roles range widely to match different skills and interests.
“You need zero experience with horses or with special needs,” Long said. “You can do something as simple as mucking stalls in the barn, or if you want to be in the lesson and work with the rider, that’s one role. If you want to work with the horses, that’s another role.”

mendous benefit to people, whether emotionally, physically or cognitively. Individuals with these disabilities enjoy easy access to equine-assisted therapies as part of their overall treatment.”
The organization’s summer session is Mondays through Thursdays June 16 through Aug. 22. For more or to register, contact Nancy Beise at programdirector@mdtrc.org or call 317-733-9393.
Aikman has witnessed firsthand the impact of Morning Dove’s programs.
“We had an 11-year-old girl about three years ago — nonverbal — I led her,” he said.
“She progressed through lessons, occasionally trying to mouth words, but nothing audible. One lesson, when her grandparents brought her, the grandmother came up to me and said, ‘Unbelievable. We were driving home from the lesson last week, and my granddaughter said “horses” and “Pete”— Pete was the name of the horse she rode.’ The grandparents were bowled over; they couldn’t believe it. And that’s just one example. I don’t want to say we perform miracles, but it seems like we see them regularly.”
The changes also will benefit the horses that play a central role in the center’s mission. Morning Dove uses a care-lease program not uncommon to the equine community, allowing owners to retain ownership while the center covers the horses’ care and expenses while using them for therapeutic purposes.
Horses are carefully selected and trained to handle the physical and emotional demands of therapy work.
“What makes us unique is our incredible horses,” McCrea said. “We have some that will stand calmly for an electronic lift that transfers paralyzed riders onto the saddle, while others, like former eventing thoroughbreds, teach able-bodied riders advanced riding skills. I just know we have some very unique horses.”
Morning Dove’s relocation and expansion represent a transformative step for the organization, allowing it to serve more individuals in need of equine-assisted therapy.
“Spending time here, seeing the riders’ progress and hearing their success stories makes you see why it is so important to all of us to keep Morning Dove’s mission alive,” McCrea said.

Blueprint for Improvement: A kitchen transformation in Carmel
Commentary by Larry Greene
This bright and inviting kitchen in the Village of WestClay was transformed through a series of intentional, impactful updates that dramatically improved both form and function. Reorienting the island, relocating the refrigerator and adding a cooktop improved the flow, making the kitchen feel more open, functional and connected.
THE BLUEPRINT
• The updated layout embraces a light and airy aesthetic with crisp white cabinetry, warm wood flooring and modern brass accents.
• The repositioned island now has better circulation, more seating and enhanced workspace.
• Moving the refrigerator and incorporating a sleek cooktop created a more intuitive cooking zone.
• The angled hardwood flooring adds subtle movement and visual interest to the overall design.
• Thoughtful details like pendant lighting and soft window treatments add warmth and texture, resulting in a space that’s as practical as it is beautiful.

Palladium gets new name
By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com
Leah Payne understands how important the Allied Solutions Center for the Performing Arts is to Carmel.
DONATION
“Over the past 15 years, the Palladium and the Center have provided us with art and cultural experiences for our children and incredible performances we have enjoyed with our family and friends,” she said. “With this contribution, our goal is to give back to the community and help ensure that other families, residents and visitors to Carmel can continue to enjoy these same opportunities well into the future.”
Payne and her husband, Eric Payne, and Suzanne and husband, Ron Mencias, both from Carmel, have reached a 10-year philanthropic agreement with the Center that will rename its flagship concert hall and support its arts and educational mission. Effective July 1, the 1,500-seat hall will be known as the Payne & Mencias Palladium. The new agreement was announced March 20 at an event at the Palladium. Financial details were not disclosed.
“Ron and I know firsthand what an important role the arts can play in people’s lives and particularly the development of young people,” Suzanne said.
Carmel Mayor Sue Finkam said having the support will be a great benefit.
“This is a great support from these two families in our community to make sure this facility is sustainable moving forward,” Finkam said. “I think this is what (former) Mayor (Jim) Brainard always envisioned. We’ve got a lot of entertainment venues in the county, mostly sports related, and to see that our families and our businesses and our community are essentially voting with their checkbooks to make sure that this is successful is incredibly inspiring. I hope this inspires and provides an opportunity for others to help make sure that this remains relevant and amazing.”
Finkam said the City of Carmel still has a contract in place that supports the Center for many years to come, but this adds to that support for programming.
Ron Mencias serves on Allied Solutions Center’s board of directors. Eric Payne was a founding member and former chair of the board, serving for 10 years, and also served on the board of the affiliated Great American Songbook Foundation. The two men are wealth management advisors and managing directors of the Payne & Mencias
Group at Merrill Lynch.
Opened in 2011, the Palladium is the largest of the campus’s three venues and the primary home of the annual Center Presents concert season, as well as performances by the Carmel Symphony Orchestra, Indiana Wind Symphony and other arts groups.
“We’re a nonprofit organization, so this money goes right to the heart of our mission,” Center President and CEO Jeffrey C. McDermott said. “The resources that come in through naming opportunities like this, and this is a substantial one for us, you know, helps us elevate our education program.”
The building also hosts educational programs, public meetings, political debates, school commencements, weddings, business conventions and U.S. naturalization ceremonies.
“When we have opportunities like this to have really generous supporters, like the Payne family and the Mencias family make this kind of commitment, it just gives us a sort of financial security and stability to know that we can continue making those types of inroads going,” McDermott said.
McDermott said the Payne and Mencias families have been supporters since the Center opened in 2011.
“After the Allied Solutions Center naming, we started to believe we could and should find a naming partner for the Palladium itself and we had some discussions with them,” McDermott said. “It was just very natural. I don’t really remember there even being an ask.”
McDermott said there are possibilities for naming rights of The Tarkington and Studio Theater, as well as rooms in the buildings and the stage.
“I think what the Payne and Mencias families showed is it doesn’t have to be a corporation, it can be individuals,” McDermott said.

Civic Theatre brings back ‘Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat’
By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com
Civic Theatre Executive Artistic Director
Michael Lasley has a long history with “Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat.”
“This is the 10th production we’ve done since 2000 and I’ve directed it nine times,” Lasley said. “We had a different director in 2004, but I was still producing and heavily involved.”
Lasley will direct the classic musical, which runs from April 25 to May 10 at The Tarkington at Allied Solutions Center for the Performing Arts. This is the first time Civic has scheduled the musical in the spring,
“It was sort of our counter programming to everyone else’s Christmas-themed shows,” Lasley said.
That changed when the Christkindlmarkt in Carmel opened where a Christmas-theme show seemed more appropriate.
“It’s selling very well. People are interested in seeing it again because it’s the first time since 2017,” Lasley said.
Colton Wood, a Perry Meridian High School junior, plays Joseph.
“The biggest thing for me is how young I am, and being the youngest person to play Joseph just means so much because his biblical age was around the same as mine at the beginning,” Wood said. “I think it puts the whole show into a whole different perspective. Coming from a younger person, that means the most to me.”
Wood had seen the musical performed at Footlite Musicals and saw the movie a few times.
“I love the music,” said Wood, who calls it one of Andrew Lloyd Webber’s best musicals.
Like Wood, this is Michael Krauter’s first Civic Theatre show. Krauter, who grew up in Carmel and graduated from Herron High School, portrays Pharaoh and one of the brothers.
“It’s just one of those roles that’s very laidback, and I feel like that’s sort of my vibe as well,” Krauter said. “I kind of like being that presence in the room that’s always just kind of the chill guy. At least, that’s what I think I am.”
Krauter, 24, said he also likes acting with Wood and behaving like an older brother. Krauter said he loves the dancing part of his role.
“I haven’t danced in years since high school,” he said. “So, I think just doing this show has really sparked that interest again, in dancing and singing and just sort of putting on a show and putting on a new character.”
Krauter said Lasley told him he had the hardest job in the show playing two roles. Except for intermission, Krauter is only off stage for around five minutes.
“It’s a lot but I really enjoy the challenge,” he said. “There are a lot of really fast costume changes, which I totally look forward to.”
Krauter was a member of the a cappella group Another Round at Indiana University.

dren’s choir for “Joseph” in 2000.
“Now, I’m 38 and also doing this with my 9-year-old niece (Allie Stacy), who is in the children’s choir,” Smith said.
Smith, a 2005 Carmel High School graduate who lives on the south side of Indianapolis, said he’s always enjoyed the musical.
“The dancing is great and the music is really upbeat,” Smith said. “As a kid, I saw it with Donny Osmond in it, so that brings back some really good memories.”
Kelsey McDaniel, an Indianapolis resident, is the narrator and is on stage for most of the performance. She played one of the wives in “Joseph” at Footlite Musicals in 2021.
“It’s no speaking lines, it’s all sung, which honestly I love,” she said. “It’s easier for me somehow to remember lyrics than spoken lines. I loved being a wife (the) last time, but I wanted to be the narrator, and I get to live out one of my dreams.”
This is McDaniel’s sixth production with Civic Theatre. Her first was “The Prom” in 2023.
“I’ve done just about every possible show since,” she said.

Westfield actress back at B&B
By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com
Anya Burke is enjoying her return to Beef & Boards Dinner Theatre, and this time it’s in a larger role.
MUSICAL
The 2020 Westfield High School graduate was in the ensemble for Beef & Boards production of “Escape to Margaritaville” in 2022.
“I loved my time here during ‘Margaritaville,’” Burke said. “Everyone was so welcoming to me and I was able to work alongside some amazing people and learn so much from them and from rehearsals. This process has been the same. Everyone is so nice and welcoming and I’m very excited to continue to learn from this experience.”
Burke plays Signe Engleson in the musical “Church Basement Ladies,” which runs April 17 to May 18. Signe is the youngest of the Church Basement Ladies and follows in the footsteps of her mother, Karin. Signe attends a university and starts to question things.
“Signe is very independent,” Burke said. “I love that about her. She has strong beliefs even though they’re very different from some of the people she looks up to and she doesn’t back down from them. She loves these women who have basically raised her. I really like that this show demonstrates friendships and mentorship between these women of different ages. I feel like I can also relate to that as well by having very close mentors to me that I consider good friends as well that are not close to me in age.”
Burke, a Westfield resident, enjoys singing ballads, so she is excited to perform “For Good.”
“It’s a super sweet song and it’s gorgeous as well,” Burke said. “I will say I have had ‘Closer to Heaven’ in my head since the first time I listened to it. That one I’m super excited to do as well.”
A 2024 Anderson University graduate, Burke played Sandy in “Grease” on a Seas Royal Caribbean cruise ship for the past eight months.

ATI sets 2025-26 season
By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com
Actors Theatre of Indiana not only announced its 2025-26 season, but the entire season was cast as of April 6.
MUSICALS
Associate Artistic Director Darrin Murrell said it’s the earliest ATI has had a cast set in stone.
“There were roughly 60 roles we were casting among these various shows,” Murrell said. “We screened more than 1,500 actors starting in February.”
“Beehive” features many popular songs from the 1960s by female singers and groups. “Young Frankenstein” is the musical version of the 1974 movie. “Lucky Stiff” is a comical “whodunit.”
Murrell and ATI Artistic Director
After narrowing the field to 150 actors, there were multiple auditions, followed by negotiations before the cast was set, Murrell said.
The 2025-26 season opens with “Beehive The 60s Musical” Sept. 5 to 21, followed by “Young Frankenstein” Oct. 24 to Nov. 9. The 2026 portion features “Lucky Stiff” Jan. 30 to Feb. 15 and “Sunset Blvd.” April 24 to May 10. All performances are in the Studio Theater at Allied Solutions Center for the Performing Arts in Carmel.
Judy Fitzgerald, an ATI-co-founder, came up with a list of 40 to 50 shows. They and the artistic committee chose the four shows from that list.
“We whittle it down to (the) Sweet 16, then an Elite Eight and then the Final Four,” said Murrell, using the NCAA basketball tournament as an analogy.
“The goals we wanted to hit were shows that express music and laughter, because we feel that’s what people are responding to now,” Murrell said.
Andrew Lloyd Webber’s “Sunset Blvd.” is playing on Broadway.
“It’s somewhat of a coup that we got the rights to it,” Murrell said. “It’s maybe the first time we are doing a show that is currently running in New York.”
