once again. Michael is thrilled that he has been given the opportunity to play the role of Robert. He wishes to
thank his wonderful children Nathan and Madison for their love and support. Most of all he wants to thank his

active in community theatre for the past ten years - acting, producing, stage managing and most recently assistant
directing. Some favorite past roles include Frederick in Noises Off, Angie in Gypsy, Farthingate in A Carol For
Tiny Tim, and Uncle in Charlotte’s Web. Nicholas has also produced many shows, including most recently at the

being on the Bradley stage, Nicholas hopes to return to acting later this year. He is currently working on a self-
titled album with his writing partner Kathy LaPrey and hopes to attend film school in Los Angeles next year.

Keith Murphy (Stage Manager/Physical Choreographer)  Keith is enjoying his second year at the Bradley
Playhouse. Last year he was on stage as Mr. Sowerberry in Oliver! and Nicely-Nicely Johnson in Guys and Dolls.
His 2007 year begins with trading in the costumes and sheet music for black shirt and pants as he has assumed the
role of stage manager. He'd like to thank the cast and crew for being wonderful, especially his assistant stage
manager and soon-to-be wife, Laura.

Laura Chandler (Assistant Stage Manager)  Laura has been seen frequently on the stage of TNECT.  Among
her most prominent roles are Hermia in A Midsummer Night's Dream, Mimi in Guys and Dolls, and That Ditzy
Fairy in Iolanthe. Tired of being type-cast into ditzy roles, Laura has returned to the backstage roles she enjoyed
so much in high school, saying "Finally something I understand!" You may have seen her in the light booth for
various off-Bradley productions, now she has moved up into the production team as assistant to her fabulous
fiance (nice alliteration!) as ASM (aka - Awesome).
