The hysterical meets the historical in this comic romp through the wackiest wax museum in history! School’s out for summer, but not for six unlucky students who don’t know much about history — they have to re-take the class in summer school.
First year teacher Heather Fairchild has arranged for them to help her two aunts set up a new wax museum as a class project. Though the students’ eyes glaze over with boredom, there’s a twinkle in the wax figures’ eyes when a mysterious incantation from the back of Cleopatra’s bracelet brings them to life! The magic of history comes alive — literally! — when spiced with Bill Francoeur’s cinematic score, including ’Egyptian Love,’ ’Summer School’ and ’Glory Days.’
Director Angie Patchett is thrilled to be back in Pemberville directing again. She is excited to see PCTW continue to grow with new faces every year. She holds a Bachelor of Arts in Theatre and since May 5th of this year, now also holds a Masters of Education in Career Technical Education, both from The University of Toledo. She teaches Costuming and Fashion at Toledo School for the Arts. Her work has also been seen recently at The Toledo Rep, and The Village Players.
Music Director Vanessa Adams has a music education degree from BGSU and a thriving music studio. She teaches piano, voice and ukulele along with beginner lessons on most band instruments from her home.
The Gale and Marlyn Williamson Performing Arts Fund provides funding for the children’s programming at the Pemberville Opera House. This fund was established by their family and friends to ensure that music and the arts remain a staple of the community for Pemberville’s children.
