We are still working on our own Scouting Revue, “ 100 years of Broadway,” which we hope to make an annual event. We invite you to come and join us if you love to sing or play an instrument. We will open the show up to non-Scouts as well as Scouts. Audition dates will be posted soon. Our rehearsal schedule wil be put together and details are dependent on how large a group we are. The Schedule will change according to our needs and more rehearsals will be added as needed. Please feel free to contact us (Mic O'Halloran - Chris Morris) for more information. For the group auditions you will sing and play and we will figure out where you are musically. There are no solo auditions, just play or sing as a group. We have a temporary website for communicating with each other. A permanent site is being created.

A small change to our mission goal

We will function as the Village crew for Ohio Village for the time being as well as a theatrical ensemble.

We will be involved with different programs in the village as well as helping out with maintenace and projects. We will also assist the Lincoln Theatre & Light opera house with their gypsy productions as well as the occasional project at St John Chrysostom Church on Cleveland & 161 aves. We have received a request from a director to allow them to mount a production of " A Norman Rockwell Christmas." in "TBD." This would be a professional production. More very shortly.

MISSION STATEMENT... To help keep the Ohio Village, music, song and the theatre alive, to teach the art & craft of theatre, the art of music, and the joy of Ohio's history in all it's travails. To give all who want to learn and experience history the opportunity to learn, do, touch, perform, write, direct, feel, create, and experience the joy of the world we live in. To help people laugh and cry. to think and question, to speak and debate, to be better citizens of this great nation and this great State. To help celebrate the history of Ohio in all it's fascinating aspects.
