Henry Eichman - Director In
2003 Henry sent out letters to every parent of a theater child that he
knew, and some that he didn't, asking them to help start what we know
today as Midcoast Youth Theater. Henry could not be prouder of
what has been accomplished in the past nine years! MYT has
gone from producing one to five shows a year, from working with
children ages 7-13 to working with children ages 5-65. MYT has
gone from homeless gypsies to a company with roots and real estate.
MYT's
10th season holds promise to be one of the most exciting yet with five
great Broadway shows, the addition of a new home, and the expansion of
programming to include reviews, karaoke nights, and other special
events.
Everyone is invited to join us on this adventure into
a new future for Midcoast Youth Theater in the new Midcoast Performing
Arts Center. |

Mike
Millett - Horton the Elephant
Mike is a self-employed handyman working in the greater Brunswick area
with his lovely wife, Juli, and beautiful daughter, Elizabeth.
You will see Mike riding about with his pal Moses who goes
nearly everywhere with him. Mike is pleased to be a part of
the first production in MYT's new home. Mike has performed in
several MYT past productions including Christmas Carol, Jesus Christ
Superstar, and HMS Pinafore. Mike has also served on the MYT
board since its creation and has directed several of the teen shows and
looks forward to directing Guys and Dolls which is coming this summer!
The cast of Seussical has worked hard to make the next 90 minutes or so
a VERY pleasant experience for you. So sit
back.....relax....and enjoy! |
Lilly Gardiner - JoJo This
is Lilly's 6th show with MYT and she is already suspecting that she
will never forget this show as she worked so hard preparing for
auditions by praying every night before auditions, practiced songs in
her mom's car, wrote down lyrics of "Alone in the Universe" in class
instead of doing homework (shhhh!). Now that Lilly has the part
of JoJo, she still can't believe it! Is this for real, or is she
still dreaming? Lilly would like to thank Henry and Courtney for
always "Believing in Me." Lilly has been dancing since the age
of two and would like to thank her mom (Linda Gardiner) for bringing
her into MYT where she has met amazing people with huge hearts and
talent. | Mirabella Driscoll - Who Mirabella
attends Harriet Beecher School and is a member of the school choir and
sings in the Youth Choir at studio 48. Mirabella enjoys reading,
horseback riding, singing, dancing and acting. She is especially
fond of mystery books. Mirabella's favorite pony to ride at Grand
Marsh Farm is Scooty. This Mirabella's debut musical performance
with Midcoast Youth Theater. | Phoebe Mendes - Gertrude Phoebe
is a dog groomer working out of Shear Balance Dog Spa in Yarmouth.
This is Phoebe's second show with MYT, she was re-bitten by the
theater bug this spring after a 7-year theater-less existence :(
She'd like to thank Henry Eichman and all the wonderful members
of MYT for encouraging her to pursue her passion for musical theater
and giving her such a wonderful support network that can only be
described as FAMILY. Phoebe would like to encourage everyone who is
interested to become part of the MYT family. "These are without a
doubt the best, kindest, and truest soles I have ever had the privilege
to work and play with. I drop my worries at the door and dance
and sing till I can't stop smiling. The members here are so
diverse in age and background, it forces you to change your
perspective. At no point is anyone here not good enough or
talented enough. A person is a person no matter how small...or if
they talk to specks of duet...or have one pitiful tail feather!"Hell | |

Schmidt- Jungle Citizen, Circus Animal, Hunch, Cadet, Nurse Big
hugs to MYT for putting on the funniest show yet! This is my
seventh production with MYT, and I hope to do many
more. Special
"thank-you" to mum, Mrs. C and Mama S for rides, and
to everybody else who made this show possible: My MYT family, for
making every rehearsal a big party. I can't believe I actually
have run away to join the circus!
