Coe-Brown Northwood Academy’s theatre program is pleased to announce their 2021 fall musical You’re a Good Man, Charlie Brown! This spirited musical about a beloved icon of American popular culture features music, scenery, and acting by CBNA students that will knock your socks off.
Come join Snoopy, Linus, Lucy, Schroeder, and the rest of the Peanuts gang as they search for the meaning of true happiness. The CBNA Theatre program participants are thrilled to perform for a live audience again this fall.
Junior Clair Burbank (playing Sally), freshman Ethan Welch (ensemble and swing), and freshman Emma Perry (ensemble) all agreed that they loved, “just getting to play being kids and without having any big worries.”
Junior Sam Marcotte, who plays Charlie Brown, loves the sense of community this production has had, while Junior Chris Reed, who plays Linus, echoed those thoughts, noting that he “just loves getting to work with this group of performers and crew.”
The actors agree that the set and costumes, and especially the dog house, make rehearsals even more fun. The production’s logo was student-designed by CBNA Junior Ian Helm.
This production is directed by CBNA faculty member Jennifer Moynihan, with additional faculty support from choreographer Kolby Hume and music director Erin Davis. Other volunteers include Danielle Muir and Dana Hadley.
“For me, I would like to say how lucky I have been to work with such a dedicated group of students who have learned so many aspects of theatre beyond acting in this show,” Moynihan said. “We have had amazing volunteers. … Without many dedicated hands this performance would not be possible.”
