‘Show Boat’
Show Boat opens at Music
Circus on Monday, July 24th,
For most Valley theatergoers that simple, declarative sentence is sufficient
inducement to plan at least
one evening next week in the
tent in Sacramento, For
those who may be undecided
or doubtful, the following
details:
Starring in Show Boat will
be Bill Shirley as Gaylord
Ravenal, the riverboat gambler. Thisis a new role for
him, in sharp contrast to the
Prince Charming he's playing inthe current production
and the countless other roles
he has played. Such casting is an earmark of Shirley's .
worth and versatility asa
singing ~actor,
In the lead opposite him,
the role of Magnolia, the
young, spirited daughter of
the showboat captain, will
beGloria Hamilton. Anewcomer to Music Circus she
is no novice in the theater
having appeared on Broadway---in Oklahoma: Lend
an Ear, Countin' Time--and in’ stock in St. Louis,
Dallas and Pittsburg---in
Opens At Music Circus
Brigadoon, Carousel, Oh?
Captain, Guys and Dolls.
She'd been seen on television---three times with Ed
Sullivan---and has done the
rounds of both nightclubs and
supperclubs, too,
As Shirley and Miss Hamilton work their way through
the bittersweet love story of
Gaylord and Magnolia, they
sing some of the most famousJerome Kern music ever
written: MakeBelieve, You
Are Love, Why DoI Love
You?
In the principal roles in
the show's subplots are Andrew Frierson and Ruth Olay.
Frierson will play Joe, the
dockworker, and to his lot
falls the classic Ol' Man
River. It'sa part and a song
he's not unfamiliar with having done Show Boat five
times already, most recentlyin April of this year at the
New York City Center,
where heisa leading operatic bass with the company.
Thisis his Music Circus debut. :
Miss Olay will be Julie,
the tragic mulatto, to sing
Can't Help Lovin" Dat Man
and Bill,
sic Circus, also for the first
time, on the rising crest of
a career as ome of the country'strue jazz singers. Appearances at several famous
clubs across the country,
plus two albums of records
by Mercury, have made her
a favorite among jazz buffs.
Inthe large cast for Show
Boat are these other outstanding players, some new to
Music Cirous, others seasoned performers there: Bertha
Powell as Queenié, Clessia
Wade as the Snake Dancer,
Paul Jayson as Frank Emmaline Henry as Ellie, and Donald Burr as Capt'n Andy, acting and directing again ashe has done so successfully
before this season.
For the benefit of anyone
who may not know, Show
Boat. was based on a novel
byEdnaFerber. Oscar Hane
merstein 11 wrote the book
andthe lyrics. And the music is, of course, Jerome
Kern's, It first opened almost 34 years ago and shows
nosign of ever vanishing
from the American stage.
