A Garden of Giving
Thank you for joining us for this celebration. With your support over
the last 29 years, Village Theatre has become a leading producer of
professional musical theatre in the Pacific Northwest and has grown
into one of the Puget Sound region’s largest theatres. Our Mainstage
currently has more than 18,000 subscribers, among the highest of any
theatre in all of Washington State, and an audience of more than
219,000 people enjoy our shows each year.
We wouldn’t be here tonight without our loyal audiences and
supporters. Whether you subscribe to our season or buy occasional
single tickets; whether you donate to our Annual Fund or commit to a
corporate sponsorship; whether you volunteer your time in our office,
at our events, or on our committees and Board—you are a part of our
family and community, and we are grateful for your participation and
support. You are a vital part of our Village and you play a starring role
in all we do.
Tonight is more than just a celebration, it is a fundraiser to meet
ambitious goals to keep our theatre growing strong. 100% of the
funds raised from all the auction items goes right back to the Theatre
to support our programming. With your support, we will touch the
lives of more than 54,000 young people and their families through our
Youth Education programs, KIDSTAGE and Pied Piper. We will
continue to contribute ground-breaking new works to the national
musical theatre scene through Village Originals. And we will continue
to bring you the high-quality production values and full-scale
professional productions you have come to expect on our Mainstage.
But none of this would be possible without you. A tip of the hat to
you, our loyal subscribers, our donors, our friends. Thank you for all
of your support.

MISSION
The mission of Village Theatre is to remain a regionally
recognized and nationally influential center of excellence in
family theatre:
•
To promote a season of top quality productions;
•
To commission and produce new musicals that achieve
national exposure;
•
To train young people in theatre skills for career
opportunities and enriched lives;
•
To develop a broad-based appreciation for live theatre
•
To promote positive values through art.
PROGRAMS
Mainstage: At the center of Village Theatre’s programs is
the Mainstage season, which runs from September-July
with 30 weeks of production in Issaquah and 20 weeks of
production in Everett, with a current subscriber base of
more than 18,000. Each season sees new productions of two
musicals from the American musical theatre canon, two new
musicals, and one play. The two musicals are drawn from
both familiar repertoire and deserving, less-produced works,
and are conceived anew by regionally and nationally
accomplished directors. The two new musicals,
representing the culmination of each year’s Village Originals
programming, will be a world or regional premiere, or a vital
second or third production of an important new work. The
play selection looks to the repertoire for a drama, comedy,
or classic, which speaks to the multiple generations in the
Theatre’s audience.

Village Originals: Village Theatre’s commitment to and
reliance upon the continued vitality of the American musical
theatre repertoire compel another important mission, one
robustly supported by our core expertise and resources. That
mission is the creation of new musical theatre works. Village
Originals is a year-round program that has enabled the
development of 80 new musicals, and as such, is dedicated to
every stage of new musical development. Full productions
(including a production in each Mainstage season and
developmental productions at our First Stage facility),
workshops, readings, seminars, Meet the Author events, and
more make the program an exceptional opportunity for
artists and audiences alike to engage with new work.
Youth Educations Programs: Village Theatre’s extensive
and acclaimed Youth Education programs serve more than
54,000 young people annually and spring from the belief that
a lifetime of theatre-going and an enduring appreciation for
the art of live theatre must begin with fulfilling experiences
in formative years.
Our KIDSTAGE education program offers students the
vital, unparalleled experience of creating live theatre of
their own, through small-group intensive theatre classes
taught by practicing theatre professionals, professionally
directed and managed productions, and productions
entirely created by students with the support of artist
mentors.
The Pied Piper program is dedicated to enriching the
cultural lives of young people and supporting the
classroom objectives of educators by bringing literature
to life through professional performances for students,
teachers, and families in the Puget Sound area.

On the Town with Village
Thank You
John Curley, Auctioneer
The mere fact that John Curley has a job in TV should be proof
enough for anyone that there is indeed a god. John was never
what you would call a scholar. He has always declared he would
have done much better in school if only the child next to him
had applied himself a little more.
With no formal training, John was hired as a weatherman in
Grand Junction Colorado. After just six
months, he was able to find Colorado on the
map without looking. This skill was enough
to get him hired in Champagne Illinios, at
WCIA TV. Curley spent only 88 days there
and never learned to spell Illinois. Other
stops along the career track include
Lancaster, PA; Springfield, VA; and Washington D.C. He
picked up an Emmy for weather in 1993 and for interviewing
and hosting in 1994. The zenith of his career was reached in
1995 when he was hired for Evening Magazine on KING TV.
John quickly became the most recognized local TV personality
and was voted by the readers of Seattle Weekly as their favorite
“TV Guy.”
John has earned numerous awards for his work in the
community and in the field of broadcasting. He can be heard on
Macy’s radio spots and seen (unfortunately) in various
infomercials. John can also make balloon animals and grow a
beard in less than a week.

Randy recently won the 2008 Los Angeles Ovation Award for Best Featured

Thank You
Bobbi Kotula, Musical Entertainment
THANK YOU to our Volunteers for making the
Auction & Gala possible!
Bobbi has been a professional stage, screen and radio
artist for the past 30 years and loves living in the
Pacific Northwest. The combination of her comedic
timing and powerfully flexible voice has won her
accolades from critics and fans alike. Her most recent
role was that of Mrs. Potts in Village Theatre’s award
winning production, Disney’s Beauty & the Beast. One
critic wrote, “Unlike many a past Mrs. Potts, Bobbi
Kotula offers a warmly maternal, slightly more upper
crust and starchier take on the role so strongly
associated with Angela Lansbury, and stamps it indelibly as her own
creation. It is doubtful her evanescent rendition of the Academy Award
winning title song left a single dry eye in the house.” Her portrayal of
Miss Hannigan in Village Theatre’s Annie won her a Footlighters Award.
Of her one-woman show, Feels Like Home, critics called her “an
unpredictable sprite of a chanteuse” and “charming, vulnerable, goofy,
touching, plaintive, entertaining, but above all, glorious.”
Ms. Kotula has performed leading roles with Village Theatre, The 5th
Avenue Theatre, Seattle Children’s Theatre, Seattle Group Theatre,
California Theatre Center, and Showtunes! She is
currently finishing work on the film Norman, which
stars Richard Jenkins, and she looks forward to the
release of the quirky comedy The Whole Truth, starring
Eric Roberts & Elizabeth Rohm. TV credits include
The Fugitive with Tim Daley and Amazing Grace with
Patty Duke. Her voice characterizations have been
heard on Backyard Baseball, Backyard Football, ZAP!,
Freddie Fish 5, Sasha, Imagination Theatre, and
Hollywood Video. Her debut album, Red Letter Love, is
her musical version of Elizabeth Gilbert’s best-selling novel, Eat, Pray
Love. It can be found on the web or on your plate.
Bobbi studied for her Masters in Directing at Villanova University,
received her Bachelor of Arts from Pennsylvania State University and is
an accredited speech and drama teacher. Her work at Village Theatre’s
evelopment department has led to her complete understanding of the
phrase, “Show Business is Two Words.” Thanks for being here tonight.

For 20 years, Richard Gray has contributed to
Seattle’s vibrant professional theatre scene as a
composer, director and performer. His composing
work is beginning to get some national attention, as
he was named in both 2005 and 2006 as a finalist
for the Fred Ebb Foundation Award honoring upand-coming new musical theatre writers. His new
musical, Cold Turkey (for which he wrote the book,
music and lyrics), was part of the 2004 Village
Theatre New Works Festival, and it received a
workshop at the Village in 2006. His holiday revue, Forbidden Xmas, was a
fixture of the Seattle holiday scene from 1991 to 2005.
Two of his full-length musical scores which were first heard at the Seattle
Children’s Theatre, Time Again In OZ and Little Rock, have been performed
in theatres across the country. Richard also wrote and
directed The Mom & Pop Show, Nightclub Gentlemen,
Bummer! Shoot! and The Donk Sisters. He has also
written the scores for A Day At The Beach and Kenny’s
Window, It Happened At The World’s Fair and NW
Bookshelf, (L)imitations Of Life. Richard also
collaborated with Martin Charnin on the new musical
Love is Love, which had its world premiere at Village
Theater in December 2007. Recent recordings include
“Hanukkah Gloves” (a Charnin/Gray original song, featured on Carols For
A Cure, Vol. 10) and Susannah Mars’ new CD from LML Music, Call It
Home: The Music Of Richard Gray. As an actor, Richard’s favorite roles
include “Albin/ZaZa” in La Cage Aux Folles and “Bud Frump” in How To
Succeed… (both at Village Theatre); “Chico Marx” in A Day In Hollywood/A
Night In The Ukraine at the 5th Avenue Theatre; and “L.M.” in Pump Boys
And Dinettes at TAG.
His numerous concert performances include Too Marvelous For Words, Nuts
And Creamy Nougat with Cheyenne Jackson, Nightclub Gentlemen, David
Austin’s An Unexpected Evening and ACT Theatre’s A Marvelous Party. His
solo show, Gray Matter, has been performed at Seattle’s Town Hall,
Portland’s Broadway Rose Theater, Tacoma Actor’s Guild and the Cabaret
at the Crepe de Paris. Richard was a featured vocalist in Martin Charnin’s
Rodgers And... at the 92nd St. Y in NYC (January,2009) alongside Hugh
Panaro, Shelly Burch and Alton Fitzgerald White.

Fund-a-Need
Musical theatre, truly one of our most enduring indigenous art
forms, has afforded generations of Americans timeless music,
celebratory, virtuoso stage work, even profound, transformative
drama. Village Theatre, one of the nation’s leading regional
producers of musical theatre, is dedicated to the development
of new musicals that achieve national exposure.
The changing economics of Broadway have severely curtailed
the development of new musicals on what was once their
primary stage. And while new musicals do still arrive in New
York, amid the revivals and spectacles, commercial producers
are increasingly unwilling to accept the risks of developing,
much less producing, new work. And now we see it is the
regional theatres that have come to represent an enduring and
ever growing interest in the entire American musical theatre
repertoire—a repertoire which must continue to grow.
Much as the responsibility for the development of playwrights
and new American plays largely migrated, a few decades ago,
from increasingly querulous commercial producers to more
adventurous, diverse, and mission-driven regional theatres, so
must the mantle of new musical development be picked up by
theatres off the Broadway grid. Village Theatre represents one
of the strongest and fastest-growing not-for-profit regional
musical theatres, with a cadre of artists and a professional staff
experienced in the production and marketing of musical
theatre, so it’s a natural step for the Theatre to share this vital
responsibility.
Musicals developed in the Village Originals program already
have enriched the musical theatre repertoire in America and
around the world: Ford’s Theatre in Washington DC, Pittsburgh
Public, Marriott Lincolnshire in Chicago, Taipei Theatre offBroadway, National Theatre of Taiwan, The Cutting Room,
New York City, the York Theatre off-Broadway and London.
