JUPITER, Fla. - July 9, 2013 - PRLog -- Two Exciting Summer Musicals

      from KWP Productions

KWP Productions announces two shows to be produced with an all-youth cast this August.

The Story of Hansel and Gretel
features The Overtures, elementary and middle school actors who make up the youngest members of the KWP production company.

Sent into the woods, Hansel and Gretel meet up with a number of peculiar characters.  A fiery troll guards his little wooden bridge.  Even more, an articulate owl, a forest sprite and two hobgoblins are in the service of an evil (but extremely funny) witch.  She locks poor Hansel in a cage and feeds him nothing but cake!  Everyone will cheer Gretel as she outwits the crone and sets free all the children who have been turned into cookies!  Every dramatic moment is brought to life, from the night spent in the woods to the discovery of the candy-coated little cottage.  Sweetened delightfully with music, all will enjoy the fun of songs like "Gingerbread Witch" and "Apple Muffin Goblins."

Book by Vera Morris Music and Lyrics by Bill Francoeur

A History of the American Film by Christopher Durang is being presented by The Second Stage Players. This group is made up of high school and college level actors wanting to stretch their wings and do a more challenging piece to hone their skills.

“…Christopher Durang has written one of the funniest, zaniest, most entertaining plays of the last decade.  …What we see is the American way of life reflected through a distortion mirror.  … It’s true that Durang has serious points to make…but this is no message play, thank goodness.  Most everything in it is pure, unadulterated, uproarious fun.”

A hilarious take off on American films, especially from the 1930s through the 1950s. The principals play a variety of characters. There is a Cagney/Bogart/Dean/Brando type-and a Fonda/Stewart/ Peck/Perkins type. The women, too, are types-basically Bette Davis, Loretta Young and Eve Arden. The parts they play are wild parodies from many Hollywood genres; a silent tearjerker, slum idyll, gangster epic, courtroom melodrama, chain gang social justice thriller, screwball comedy, Busby Berkeley backstage musical, war propaganda canteen musical-not to forget "Casablanca," "Citizen Kane" and a variety of minor genres.

Cast List for A History of the American Film: Elli Brown (Palm Beach Gardens), Lexi Carter (Jupiter), Jonathan Clarke (West Palm Beach), Victoria Devereaux (West Palm Beach), Alfredo Gonzalez (West Palm Beach), Michelly Gonzalez (West Palm Beach), Andrew Griner (Juno Beach), Sarah Hardwick (Lake Worth), Jake Howard (Boynton Beach), Chris Konce (Palm Beach Gardens), Jonathan Raffoul (Boynton Beach), Alec Ruiz (Wellington), Analisa Ruiz (Wellington), Sophia Tome (West Palm Beach)

"The special gifts Durang brings to this work, apart from a sharp eye for genre parody are a sense of the misguided way we watch movies-making stars, ignoring the character in favor of the actor, wallowing in the kitschier moments--and an equally lethal sense of how Hollywood played on our sentimentalities by using the actor and the kitsch forms to put junky ideas across." - Village Voice "Authentic, inspired and possessed comedy...A very funny carnival." - The New York Times Book and Lyrics by Christopher Durang, Music by Mel Marvin *FOR MATURE AUDIENCES
