YPW ALUMNI RETURN:
YPW graduates Stephanie Templin and Joe Harrington return to lend their valuable talents to this seasons' productions of ANNIE, NO NO NANETTE and THE APPLE TREE.

Perhaps you remember this dynamic duo in YPW's Spring 2000 production of WEST SIDE STORY as Tony and Anita. Or, perhaps your recall Harrington as the invincible Lancelot in Lerner & Lowe's CAMELOT; who could forget Stephanie Templin's portrayal of Sondheim's Witch in the YPW hit INTO THE WOODS? Since graduating from YPW only a year ago they've both gone on to great successes and YPW couldn't be luckier to have them on hand once again.

Templin will be filling in for Tara Keohane, as a Principal Dancer in NO NO NANETTE. [Keohane recently injured her knee and will only fulfill her role in THE APPLE TREE but had to withdraw from the ensembles of NANETTE and ANNIE because of the strenous dancing. Erika Klicks will takeover Keohane's supporting role in ANNIE.] Stephanie is a seasoned professional having danced in over 45 YPW productions not to mention the 5 productions at County College of Morris where she is currently seeking an Associates Degree in Drama/Acting on a Performing Arts Scholarship. Ms. Templin also appeared in Moliere's French farce, "The Would-Be Gentleman" directed by Jake Berger, of the New Jersey Skahespeare Festival. Welcome back Steph and thanks!

Joe will be acting as Company Manager over-seeing Tech week and final performances of all productions this season. Joe has recently returned from appearing in the National Tour of Neil Simon's and Marvin Hamlisch's "They're Playing Our Song". After auditioning and winning the role in the production starring Erin (Happy Days) Moran, Harrington decided to take a semester off from Emerson, appear in the tour and return to Boston in the Fall. Lucky for us, he's available and willing to offer his professional assistance. I'm sure he'll see to it that the work gets back in the workshop! Welcome aboard, Joe and thanks!

**It's also been rumored that YPW Alumnus FALLON MAGGIO - of "Cinderella" fame will also be on hand to assist with Make-up and anything else needed - Remember Fallon as the crazy Stepsister in CINDERELLA? Who could forget one of the funniest performances to ever grace the YPW stage! Hope the rumor is ture Fallon, and that we'll be seeing you during performance weeks! Thanks!
