With spring break among us, kids are begging and pleading for something fun to do.  What better way to spend time with your kids than bringing them to enjoy our wonderful childrens show, The Princess & The Pea.  Your little princess will surely enjoy this lively musical!

One familiar face around our theatre since the beginning has been Michael (Mickey) Bryce.  He has appeared in productions here such as A Christmas Carol and Fiddler on the Roof and has music directed/directed numerous others.  We are more than pleased to bring him back again as director for Forever Plaid.  His knowledge and expertise helped make last production of this show such a success and we can guarantee that he will be capable of making this upcoming production a fantastic masterpiece.  Mickey has been involved in over 75 productions here in the valley, has received 4 ariZoni Awards of Excellence in Theatre and is a teacher at Mesa Community College.  He lives in Mesa with his wife and has three children.

First off, we LOVE our patrons.  We appreciate your support over the years.  You have made Hale a success and we thank you.  We have gotten so many warm letters and emails in the past and we love hearing from our patrons.  Let me share just a few comments we have had about Guys & Dolls.

My daughter and I attended Guys & Dolls last night.  Her exact words as we left the performance, “My heart it is so happy right now!”  WOW!  I just want to say THANK YOU.  Thank you to David for providing fabulous theatre! Thank you to Tregony for her outstanding vision and superb direction in all aspects of this quality performance, thank you to Rebecca for making everyone look like a million bucks!  A huge thank you to an outstanding cast who committed 100 percent to their characters, brought us into their world, and captured us hook line and sinker!  The chemistry throughout the entire production sizzled!  The relationships were fantastic!  Not only between Sarah/Sky and Nathan/Adelaide, but between Sarah/Arvide, Sarah/Adelaide, as well as all of your gamblers!  Truly enjoyable!  Once again, thank you for sharing your hearts with us- In the words of Sarah Brown, “It’s very good…I’ll definitely have another one!”

-Patron Review (2/22/2010)

We wanted to let you know that 8 of us came to Guys and Dolls last weekend and we have all seen the play at least 4 times each from Los Angeles, NYC, Portland and London.  We all agreed that we had not seen any better than your production and cast.  Congrats on your stellar effort!
