LIPITONES
The Fabulous Lipitones is a hilarious take on what happens when a barbershop quartet is forced to take on an unconventional replacement when one of their members suddenly dies. When they meet face to face with their replacement, he is definitely not what they expected. Will the four of them have perfect harmony or will the clash of cultures be too great? This comical and moving story about the power of song, prejudice, and friendship will fill the LTA auditorium with both laughs, tears, and the close harmonies of barbershop quartets.

Director’s Notes
Those folks who know me well and, in fact, strangers who have just met me will quickly learn that I love theater. I am particularly enamored of farce. I totally buy into regular folks who get caught in outrageous situations as the mistaken identities multiply, the lies spill, and the doors slam with merry abandon.
Key for Two is a happy collaboration between two writers, John Chapman and Dave Freeman, who are known for writing well-crafted comedies, particularly for television. John Chapman has also written jointly with Ray Cooney, who is a master of farce. These playwrights write scripts that induce laughter by making fun of personal situations. This script incorporates the best elements of British sketch comedy and music hall routines. Farce reminds us that theater doesn’t have to keep pushing out to the edges of human experience. Plays like Key for Two are fun for fun’s sake as the characters witlessly work themselves into ridiculous situations and then wittily work their way out. So please enjoy this valentine to one of my favorite types of plays.
Eleanore TapscottTake a Seat.

Meet the Cast
(in alphabetical order)
Dana Gattuso (Anne) is excited to be back at LTA. Past credits include Mama, Distracted (ATC), received “Best Performance in a Play in Professional Theatre” from DC Metro Theater Arts; Ouisa in Six Degrees of Separation (PCP); Sarah in Company; Vi in Footloose; Stepmother in Into the Woods (LTA); Rose in Dancing at Lughnasa (SMP); Little Mary in Little Mary Sunshine (DS); Maria in West Side Story (SMP); and Antonia in Man of La Mancha (ESP), among others. Thanks to James, Peter and Lindsey for indulging me, and Merry and Bill for passing down their passion for theater.
Peter Harrold (Gordon) is very excited to return to the LTA stage after an absence of more than 20 years (when he appeared in a different role in this same play!). Favorite recent roles have included Andrew in Sleuth (VTC), Mr. Burley in An Inspector Calls (RLT) and Ferris in Bedside Manners and Bernard in Don’t Dress for Dinner (both BP). Since retiring after 30 years at the World Bank, Peter has been teaching at George Washington University and enjoying long summers in France.
Justin Latus (Richard) LTA audiences may remember Justin in Ragtime, in which he played a racist fireman who destroyed the protagonist’s car and a policeman who accidentally kills the protagonist’s wife. Justin is marginally more appealing in this show as Richard. Justin gets in character every night by getting trashed at one of Old Town’s many watering holes. To those who think he has a drinking problem, he slurs, “Shut up, you little brat. You have the drinking problem!”
Liz LeBoo (Mildred) is excited to be making her debut with LTA. She has been involved in theater for many years, performing as a student in the D.C. area, then with companies in the Czech Republic and Indonesia. Recent credits include The Twelve Plays of Christmas (PCP) and Into the Woods with the Jakarta Players. Favorite roles include Jester in Once Upon a Mattress and Lizzy Curry in The Rainmaker.
Elizabeth Replogle (Magda) is so excited to be back at LTA! Previous roles here include Renée in The Odd Couple (Female Version), Marie-Celèste in Nude with Violin and Irma in Picnic. Elsewhere, she has performed as Marmee in Little Women (ACCT), Inspector Goring in The Game’s Afoot (MCP), Miss Casewell in The Mousetrap (SSS) and Esther in To Gillian on Her 37th Birthday (PCP). She is, as ever, so grateful to her friends and family, especially her parents, for their unending support and encouragement.
Meet the Cast
(continued)
Charlene Sloan (Harriet) is thrilled to return to LTA after playing Jean Perkins in Funny Money and a Bad Idea Bear and Mrs. T in Avenue Q! Other favorite roles include Lynn McCarthy in Red Herring (PPF), The Queen in Snow White and the Family Dwarf (PPF), Chris Gorman in Rumors (PPF), and Ruth Condomine in Blithe Spirit (PTC). Charlene also hosts “Lifestyles” on MeTV at 10 a.m. on Saturdays. Please support homeless animals and donate to broadwaybarks.org! Don’t shop, adopt!
Cal Whitehurst (Alec) is extremely pleased to appear in a naughty bedroom farce and to work with a talented cast and crew under the skilled direction of Eleanore Tapscott. His other LTA credits include Bob Cratchit in A Christmas Carol, Mr. Jordan in Heaven Can Wait and Mr. Gilmer in To Kill a Mockingbird. He would also like to call your attention to his performances as Tom Duffy in Farragut North (PCP), The Common Man in A Man for All Seasons (TAP) and George in Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf? (Zemfira).

She traveled north to Alaska (quite literally) and south along the western coastline before settling in Alexandria, discovering a new home with wonderful community theaters in the area. Sherry’s very pleased to be working under the creative direction of Eleanore Tapscott once again.

Come Play With Us!
There are many ways to be involved with The Little Theatre of Alexandria!
Volunteers are an important aspect of LTA. There are many opportunities to be a part of LTA with a variety of events and times! All are welcome to participate regardless of experience.
LTA is one of the oldest community theatres in the Washington D.C. area thanks to the hard work and dedication of our volunteers. A successful stage production requires many volunteers working behind the scenes before and during the run of the show. Everyone performing in and nearly everyone you see working on an LTA show is a volunteer.
As a volunteer community theatre group, LTA welcomes anyone interested in becoming involved. There are lots of opportunities at LTA, for all experience levels! So, come play with us.
For more information visit our website www.thelitletheatre.com and click on “Volunteer”, or call the business office at 703-683-5778.

She looks forward to working with LTA in the future.
Pam Leonowich (Co-Master Electrician) has been climbing the light ladders at LTA for over 10 years and is proud to follow in her mother’s theater footsteps.

The Council of the Little Theatre of Alexandria is a support group of interested and dedicated people who support the theatre with special contributions. Additionally, the Council has three social events per year, provides for the winter holiday decorations for the theatre, and maintains the Council Memorial Garden. The Council was organized in 1961 and presently has about 80 members, most of whom are long-term and wellestablished LTA members. Past contributions include: a new range for the Council Green Room of LTA, folding chairs and tables throughout the theatre, brass plates for the new theatre seats, new draperies in the Council Room, the computerized box office system, several grand drapes over the years, and many varied technical enhancements. Contributions to LTA from the Council have exceeded $200,000 and we gratefully accept donations from friends and members to assist in our support of LTA. We welcome new members and if you would like to become a member of the Council please feel free to contact the theatre or any of the Council officers. We are very pleased and honored to be a part of the Alexandria artistic community and are proud to be supporting one of the best community theatres in America today.
