How much impact can one person have on a region’s cultural life? Victoria Bussert, whose 20+ year theatre & opera career includes directing 7 national tours, extensive New York experience, and impressive stints with all our regional theaters, will do what no one has done before: present Rent and La Boheme in rotating rep from Tue 2/15 thru Sun 2/27 at the John Patrick Theatre at Baldwin-Wallace College, where Vicky serves as Director of Musical Theatre in the Music Conservatory.
The productions are directed by Constantine Kitsopoulos, who directed La Boheme on Broadway.
Watch the video as Cool Cleveland talks with Vicky about the challenges of this audacious effort, and her annual trip to New York with her theatre students, all of whom were signed by agents after professional auditions last trip.
For more information and tickets to Rent, La Boheme, (or both productions, which can be witnessed back-to-back on weekends) call 440-826-2240 or visit BW.edu.
