"Sweet Charity" tells the heart-warming story of Charity Hope Valentine, a vibrant but unlucky-in-love dance hall "hostess" at the seedy Fandango Room in New York City in the late 1960s. With a script by Neil Simon and brought to the Broadway stage by the incomparable direction and choreography of Bob Fosse, the show went on to additional success with a movie version of the show starring Shirley MacLaine. With familiar show-stopping numbers such as "Big Spender" and "If My Friends Could See Me Now", you're sure to enjoy this Broadway classic from the award-winning Actorsingers!

About the Directors

		Paul Metzger (Director) is back again with Actorsingers, having directed 2007's Thoroughly Modern Millie (New Hampshire Theatre Awards for Best Show, Best Musical Direction, Best Choreography, and Best Costumes) as well as our award-winning productions of CATS (2006) and Jesus Christ Superstar (2005). No stranger to performing on stage as well as behind the scenes, Paul has appeared in over 20 productions, musical and non-musical alike, and has been Fight Director (stage combat) for several of them. Most recently, Paul appeared in Actorsingers' production of The Producers and was the Voice of the Plant in MADCOs production of Little Shop of Horrors. Favorite roles over the years include Will Parker in Oklahoma!, Petruchio in Taming of the Shrew, and Sky Masterson in Guys & Dolls.
		Blake Leister (Music Director) is thrilled to be involved with his first Actorsingers’ production. He has worked with several local theatres including the St. Anselm Abbey Players, Kids Coop Theatre, MADCo, and Majestic Theatre. Favorite musical direction credits include Into the Woods, Seussical, Godspell, Once Upon a Mattress, Oklahoma, and Anything Goes. In 2008, he was nominated for a NH Theatre Award for his musical direction of Little Shop of Horrors with MADCo. When not in the pit, Blake teaches chorus and theatre at West Running Brook Middle School in Derry where he also directs the drama club and select choir. Blake holds a Masters of Music Education from the University of Michigan and a Bachelors from the University of Massachusetts.
		Donna O'Bryant Metzger (Choreographer) is a two-time winner of a New Hampshire Theatre Award for Best Choreography -- Thoroughly Modern Millie (2007) and CATS (2006), both with Actorsingers. She is very excited to have the opportunity to once again work with Actorsingers and to channel the style and spirit of Bob Fosse in a fabulous show! Donna has performed in and choreographed numerous community theater productions in both NH and MA. Most recently Donna performed in the Actorsingers' productions of The Producers and Anything Goes. She is an Actorsingers Life Member and on of the Board of Directors. She is thrilled to be working on another production with her husband, Paul and can't wait to work with Blake again!
