Joining me in studio today is KirkDetwiler from the Maryon Palace Theater. A
very special announcement coming here today.You, sir, have your first complete
season that you and your team workedout one hundred percent and you're ready to
announce it because last year weren't afew of the shows kind of carryovers or
was that your No, that wastwo years ago. Years season was my
(00:21):
first full absolutely, so this isyear two of everything you're being in your
control and your team's control, andand uh, you've you're excited to announce
the lineup. Man. Yes,our season of Enchantments, the season of
Enchantment, we go on theatrical season, so we do July one to June
thirtieth. That's our year, ourfiscal year. Right. Um so we
(00:43):
always, you know, in Mayannounced the new season, although we already
announced our summer musical because just thispast Sunday we had auditions, which was
the day before the official announcements wasmade. Um oh the Marion start,
did they? I had something that'ssupposed to go up on the eighth and
they they put it online on thesixth, So they got the scoop,
(01:03):
they got the school I was giventhe scoop to you, Paul James,
Well, you know, I appreciatethat, but it all works out in
the end, and we're letting peoplewho listen to the radio station and catch
this podcast know exactly what the lineupis ahead for the Marian Palace Theater and
let's get started with the Palace producedshows. Tell me about that. Well,
just just this past Sunday, wehad auditions for Beauty and the Beasts.
(01:26):
Disney's Beauty and the Beast is oursummer musical, and I don't know
the entire cast. I know DustinRawlins is playing the Beast and Sarah Grody
is playing the Beauty nice. Soyeah, And I was amazing because I
was there for auditions on Sunday andwe didn't know what to expect because auditions
are so early. A lot ofpeople, you know, the high schools,
(01:48):
and you know, schools aren't out. It's busy graduation prom things going
on. We had one hundred andthree people try out. Wow, And
I know that on paper, Beautyand the Beast does not have a large
cast, but you guys did somethings to make the cast larger correct right.
For example, um, there's onlyone kid in the whole show.
Um, it's Chip, you know, that little guy that turns into a
(02:12):
teacup, Um, son of amissus Potts. Um. But Claire and
Christie decided to do, you know, expand a little bit. So they
did add some kids and just thegroup numbers and stuff. But uh,
because and and Claire explained this,we're renting the set from Stagecraft. Uh.
I think they have an outfit.They have a satellite. I think
we're getting it from Cleveland, butthey're based somewhere else. Um, it's
(02:37):
huge, just gonna take up,you know, three quarters of the stage.
So yeah, we can't have itthat. We can never have a
huge, huge cast. So Ithink she had they added seven kids,
and it was heartbreaking because like fiftykids tried out and there's only one kid's
part. And they decided they're goingto add you know, just in certain
scenes they can add some kids withfunky costumes on. Um. Yeah,
(02:59):
but but they only chose seven becausethe cast isn't huge, and I think
there's only forty in the whole cast. It's gonna be a great show.
Christmas at the Palace, we hadtwo hundred and seventy people. Yeah,
absolutely, in comparison, right,yeah, yeah, it opens July eighth.
Tickets will go on sales to thegeneral public on May thirtieth. If
you're a member, and if youdepends on what level of membership you have,
(03:23):
one of the perk says you getearly chance to buy tickets. Right,
so our marquee members already can buyand then they're different levels week to
week to week. We open itup May thirtieth to the to the main
general public. That's excellent. Sowhat else do you have that our Palace
produced shows this year? Well,we were really fighting back. Why you
(03:43):
know, there's nineteen people on thePalace board and then there's a committee of
about six of them that are onthis strategy and Quality committee. So what
did I do is like I getwith all the agents, I give them
a choice, this committee, Igive them a choice, and that as
a team we pick out what showsthey are. Well, we have just
so many submissions and there is amusical called Next to Normal that apparently Dustin
(04:05):
Rawlins h he has directed some highschool stuff, but he's never directed anything.
No, he has directed. Hedirected a cabaret show in the Palace.
I take that back. He hasdirected before but I know, he
said, said he is. Heloves his musical so much. It's his
Hamilton. He has submitted it elevenyears in a row and it was never
accepted. But the you know,I pitched it to the strategy and quality
(04:30):
and they're like, well, let'sdo two summer musicals. I mean,
Beauty and the Beast is you know, it's Disney, So it's it's the
family one. So when August we'redoing next to Normal. The next Normal.
It's a Tony Award and Pulitzer Prizewinning musical. Wow, but it
is. It is the opposite ofBeauty and the Beasts. It is about
this woman who has got, she'sgot, she's bipolar and she's schizophrenic,
and it's just a it's a rockmusical. It's rock music, and it's
(04:54):
just how it affects her family,you know, mental illness, How it
affects a family. I mean,it's it's yeah. So it's like it's
not our traditional offering that we doat the Palace, but we're like,
you know, hey, let's let'sdo some arts again. So turn it
right around in August and doing August. Yeah, August eighteenth, nineteenth and
(05:15):
twentieth next to normal, and it'sgoing to be the smallest, only five
or six people in the cast,and we're doing it in the pavilion.
Three performances, So that's I'll bedirected by Dustin Rawlins. I love that.
So what else do you have fora Palace produce shows you want to
talk about? Well before, Well, our junior Musical will be the first
or second weekend of October. Andthis is a brand new show. They
(05:38):
just made it into a musical literallythe day before I requested it because they
were advertising it's a musical version ofFinding Nemo. Really, so it's Finding
Nemo Junior, directed by Christi Wink. So that'll be our junior musical in
October. Awesome. Then we turnaround do Christmas at the Palace. That'll
(05:58):
be the first weekend of December.Christmas at the Palace. She hasn't given
me a theme yet, but ClaireCook's been very busy this year. She
just did Nonsense I'm in and she'sgoing right into the Summer musical, and
the day the Summer Musical closes,she starts writing. Because she writes,
she puts these shows together from scratchright right um. Christmas at the Palace.
Yeah, it's always it's it's abig, big show. It's like,
(06:20):
yeah, it's usually our biggest showof the year as far as a
ticket sold. It's love it becauseyou know people in it. It's just
gets you in the Christmas spirit.It is absolutely one of my favorite shows
every year. So but one showI forgot. We are doing a last
Last August, we did a fundraiserfor the Palace, a benefit performance,
and it's called Evening with Friends.Yeah, we're doing it again, only
(06:42):
the time in September, September twentyseconds, and that has not been cast
yet. It's usually it's a lotof the Palace regulars and everybody jumps in
and does a couple of shows andwe auction some fun things off. It's
good time. So that'll be Septembertwenty second. Cool. How you turned
around to the spring. We've gotour adult play. It's called Lend Me
(07:03):
a Tenor and that will be directedby Emily yak Sick and that's from the
It's it was popular in the eightiesand it won a lot of Tony Awards,
so it's a it's a well knownplay in the theater world, and
that will be in April. Iforgot about the junior play. We have
a junior play in February. It'scalled Under the Big Top. Okay,
(07:25):
so that's pretty much our Um Palaceproduce productions. We're doing six. We
normally do five. We're doing sixthis year. That's excellent. I'm looking
forward to all of them. Yeah, that's really fun stuff. Now,
let's talk a little bit about someof the nationally touring acts that you're bringing
to the Mary Palace Theater. Well, our big name in the fall,
and if you watch TV at all, they are on Gaines commercials to this
(07:46):
day. It is a boy bandfrom the nineties and early two thousands called
All for One. They're they're locatedout of LA and they're they're going to
be November third. I love that. Yeah, they're big, big songs,
I swear. Yeah, they wanta Grammy for that Best Vocal R
and B. And they're they're great. They're pop R and B. So
(08:07):
that should cross over to many demographics. So that's going to be a great
show. And we have another bigshow in May. It's going to be
an upcoming a country band. Umthey're on America's Got Talent. I can't
announce the name yet because the contracthas not been signed. Yeah, I
don't want to make any false promises, but it looks like is going to
happen. We just can't announce ittill so all the eyes are dotted and
(08:30):
teaser crossed. So that'll be inMay. Good stuff. But you know,
what's what keeps the palace alive isour tribute bands. You know,
because you know we're a small town. We can't afford you know, the
Rolling Stones, but we can afforda Rolling Stones tribute band. Yes,
and that's our first tribute band ora second tribute band we got. They're
called Satisfaction. They're from Canada andthey do Rolling Stones. That'll be in
(08:54):
October. Backtracking to September, thisis the one I'm really excited about.
We have got a guy named ConstantMorales. And are you familiar with the
musical Rock of Ages. I amall right. It was a jukebox musical,
but it was all great eighties rockanthems, and they tied a story
around it was it was a moviea few years ago with Alec Baldwin and
Tom Cruise. Anyway, Constantine Moraleswas the big star of that show,
(09:18):
right, and he was a realitystar winner, one of one of the
American but yeah, one of them. He now fronts a band called Foreigner's
Journey, so they do all Foreignerand all Journey music. Really, yes,
And that's September. That's September twentyninth. Fantastic. So that's that's
going to be a big draw.And then in the spring we've got and
(09:39):
then this is another show that justknocked me off. Somebody introduced me to
this on YouTube. There's a girlnamed Lisa mcclowy. Okay, and look
her up on YouTube. She doessix months of the year she does the
Legend Show in Vegas, and sixmonths a year she tours on her own
and she does a show called TheBeat Goes On where she embodies share like
(10:03):
no one else. Why have youon YouTube? And you the way she
talks, the way she looked,the way she does her makeup, she
looks and sounds talking and singing exactlylike Share. That is awesome. That's
going to be February seventeenth, okay. So, and then in April,
we've got a tribute show to ArethaFranklin. A gull named CC to Neil
and she doesn't do an impersonations,just just a tribute to her because she
(10:28):
again look at her on YouTube aswell. Yeah, absolute dynamite entertainer in
her own right. She just doesdistribute to Aretha. You know, I
know, the tribute acts have donereally really well and people really love going
to them. And then some peopleare like, oh, well, why
can't you get Foreigner, why can'tyou get Journey because obviously it's way way
out of our price range. Andwhen you look at some of those bands,
(10:48):
they have changed personnel so much thatwhat do you want do you want
to hear what Journey did in nineteenninety, nineteen eighty, nineteen seventy seven,
right, And that's what these tributesdo. As a matter of fact,
this summer, looking over some ofthe the shows that are you know,
acts that are ending their runs,a lot of them maybe have one
(11:09):
or two original members and the restend up being guys that either are fabulous
musicians or dudes that were in tributeacts to that band are now fronting those
bands. So well, they mightbe seeing the next lead singer of Foreigner.
When you go to that show exactly, it might be well, the
guy that does Journey now they theyyou know, Steve Perry retired and they
(11:31):
got this Filipino guy that they gotfrom YouTube. But he sounds exactly like
Steve Perry. Yeah, and hedoes a great job. He's got a
wonderful personality. He's fantastic. Isaw him. I've seen him twice live.
He's fantastic. I mean there's Imean there's some you know, we
look at big acts, like Iwanted a big act from the seventies,
which I was a big fan ofthe Little River Band, but then I
looked into it and not there's notone of the original players that one by
(11:54):
one they got replaced and they wereallowed to keep the name. But it's
like okay, you know, yeah, but and they're twice as expensive absolutely
because they have the name right.Absolutely. Yeah, So absolutely, that's
cool. Tuck a little bit aboutsome of the special event you gat.
Well, we've got um we're doinga series of Palace fundraisers. We're going
to do an Eighties night, EightiesLadies Night in um uh August. We
(12:20):
are going to do a power walkfor the Palace. We did that last
last September where we got a bunchof people and it was ten dollars just
donation twenty five bucks if you wanteda T shirt. We're gonna do the
same thing this September. We'll finda route to last week we walked to
the Harding Memorial from the Palace andback. We're doing one of those.
Uh So, a lot of thingscoming up. Um. We have Shovel
