Theater
“WHAT A GREAT COMMUNITY
WE LIVE IN!” exclaimed Charles
Kirkwood, Shawnee Playhouse
President, after East Stroudsburg
University officials informed him
that the Shawnee Playhouse would
be able to utilize the East Strouds-
burg University’s Fine Arts Theater
for at least the rest of the summer.
Early Monday morning a fire gutted
the Shawnee Playhouse and dam-
aged the Shawnee Volunteer Fire
Company. Police and fire investiga-
tors have labeled the fire as arson.
ESU President, Dr. Dennis Bell,
informed Ginny Kirkwood, one of
the executive producers and owner
of the Shawnee Playhouse, that in
keeping with the ESU’s usage
policy, Shawnee will be permitted to
stage performances of The Robber
Bridegroom and The Sound of
Music. The Robber Bridegroom was
in the middle of its run when the
fire struck Monday morning.
Though the entire set was
destroyed, by good fortune, the cos-
tumes had been sent to the cleaners
and were saved. Carmella Guiteras,
Artistic Director of the Shawnee
Playhouse, says that the cast is now
working hard to get the show back
up and will reopen the show Friday
evening. ‘It is a magnanimous ges-
ture by the University,” said Ginny
Kirkwood, ‘‘and one we are thankful
for.” All ESU students will be
admitted free to both productions
and encouraged to participate in
them on the technical production
and the performing aspects.
The Robber Bridegroom reopened
on Friday, June 28, and will run
until July 14. The Sound of Music
will run from July 19 until Septem-
ber 1. All season ticket holders are
encouraged to see The Robber
Bridegroom before it closes. All
ticket reservations and Playhouse
information calls should be tempor-
arily directed to the following two
numbers: 424-6222 or 424-6221.
Within a week to 10 days, the
regular Playhouse numbers 421-5093
and 421-1500 ext. 452, 453 will be
back in service according to Lori
ott, Shawnee Playhouse Manager.
“We are operating at full speed as if
the fire had not happened. The
shows and production standards will
both be up to the high standards
Shawnee audiences have come to
expect. It is just a temporary
switch, one which we are grateful to
have been offered.”
‘‘HANSEL AND GRETEL,” a
children’s play based on the popular
Grimm Brothers fairy tale, will be
the second of three plays to be
performed as part of the Fourth
Annual King’s College Summer The-
atre Festival.
The play will be performed at 1
p.m. and 3 p.m. Thursday and

p.m., 3 p.m. and 7 p.m. Friday,
July 12 in the King’s College Audito-
rium, 133 N. River Street.
Directed by Victoria Visgilio, of
Shavertown, a communications and
theatre major at King’s and daugh-
ter of King’s professor Thomas Vis-
gilio, the play is the classic story of
two young children who are dold by
their stepmother and then encounter
a series of adventures including
getting lost in a forest and trying to
escape the wrath of the wicked
witch.
The lead roles are played by Erik
Farmer and Meredith Ambrose of
Kingston. Farmer is the son of Dr.
Donald W. Farmer, academic dean
