B IOGR APHIES

Chris Flieller (Artistic Director, In Tandem Theatre) A fixture both on and backstage for more than twenty-five years in Milwaukee, Chris has numerous credits to his name. Acting credits include In Tandem Theatre, Skylight Opera Theatre, Milwaukee

Chamber Theatre, Theatre X, First Stage Children’s Theatre, and the Marcus Center/Milwaukee Repertory. Among his directing credits are WONDER OF THE WORLD, SHAW SHORTS, THE EIGHT: REINDEER MONOLOGUES, HOLIDAY HELL, THE CHOSEN, HOME, EQUUS (in a co-presentation with the UWM undergraduate acting program) OLD WICKED SONGS, and most recently THE NIGHTMARE ROOM for In Tandem. Chris directed ORPHEUS DESCENDING for the UWM Theatre Program and coaches numerous dialect and performance workshops.

Jane Flieller (Director/Managing Director, In Tandem Theatre) A former stage manager, Jane toured nationally with the Great American Children’s Theatre Company and has worked locally for Milwaukee Chamber Theatre, First Stage

Children’s Theatre, Theatre Tesseract, Next Act Theatre and Next Generation Theatre. For several years, Jane was the stage manager for ComedySportz, a position she originated. She co-founded In Tandem Theatre with her husband, Chris, in 1998 and now unleashes her creative energies on all aspects of running a small arts organization. Jane’s directing credits include In Tandem, Whitefish Bay High School, Carroll College, Broadway Baby Dinner Theatre and South Milwaukee Performing Arts Center. She looks forward to directing DIRTY ROTTEN SCOUNDRELS for Marquette University next fall. As always, she gives thanks to her beloved husband, partner and best friend, Chris, through whom all things are possible.

Tiffany Vance (Annie) Tiffany is thrilled to be back for her third consecutive spring with In Tandem Theatre where her most recent shows include VERONICA’S POSITION and ART OF MURDER. Other Milwaukee theatre work includes First Stage Children’s

Theatre, Milwaukee Shakespeare and Bialystock and Bloom. When not making her yearly jaunt to Milwaukee, Tiffany stays busy teaching Public Speaking at the University of Wisconsin-Platteville

and searching for adventure with her women’s traveling organization, The Tasty Travelers.

Simon Jon Provan (Donald) Simon is thrilled to be back at In Tandem Theatre where he previously performed in HA! and THE GIRL IN THE FRAME. Other credits include lead and supporting roles with the Illinois Shakespeare Festival, Montana Shakespeare In The

Parks, First Stage Children’s Theatre and former local theatre companies Theatre X, Milwaukee Shakespeare Company, and New American Theatre. Simon also completed internships at American Players Theatre and the Milwaukee Rep. Along with being an active voice-over and on-camera talent, Simon is currently a Professor of Theatre at UW-Sheboygan but is excited to soon be joining the Theatre Department at Wisconsin Lutheran College where he will serve as the Head of Performance. Simon thanks Chris and Jane for their continued support. “To my girls, thank you for being awesomely awesome. To Sarah, thank you for the waltz.” John 15:12

Doug Jarecki (Elliot) In preparation for APARTMENT 3A, Doug has become acutely aware of other number/letter combinations in his life. In fact, just the other day he chuckled as he dipped his B12 vitamins in A1 steak sauce while listening to UB40 and

watching the movie K9 (rated PG13). Why was he chuckling? Simple - K9 is that funny, folks. Doug is not very good at math, but he does know that one Jim Belushi plus one mischievous canine equals comedy gold. Doug thanks Chris and Jane for this fun experience as well as most of the cast. He wont’ thank Tiffany because Doug doesn’t want to give her the satisfaction of knowing he enjoyed working with her.

Gene Schuldt (Dahl) A Chicago native, Gene is a 1976 graduate of the Goodman School of Drama and has appeared in theatres throughout the Midwest. This is Gene’s first time performing at In Tandem and he’s glad to be here! In the Milwaukee area,

he has appeared at Milwaukee Shakespeare, Broadway Baby Dinner Theatre, Sunset Playhouse and Waukesha Civic Theatre, to name a few. In Chicago, he was proud to have appeared in two Jeff Award (Chicago’s “Tony”) winning productions. He played King Duncan in KABUKI MACBETH at Wisdom

Loren Watson (Sound Design) After a year away guest designing in Raleigh, North Carolina, Loren is delighted to return to his hometown of Milwaukee and to work with In Tandem Theatre again.

He has also worked locally with Renaissance Theatre and Chamber Theatre. Last summer he designed sets and costumes for Emporia State University’s productions of THE LION IN WINTER and PLAZA SUITE.

Colin Gawronski (Lighting Design) Colin is a Milwaukee native and a graduate of UWM’s Theatre Program. He is excited to be back at In Tandem again. Colin has worked with such local companies as Your Mother Dances, UWM Dance,

Ellen M. Kozak (Costume Design) Ellen studied Fashion Design in college and then discovered the world of theatre design. Her work has taken her from Adam and Eve to speculative visions of the future. Ellen has designed for many theatre companies

across the nation including the Milwaukee Repertory, GeVa Theatre in Rochester, New York, The Intiman in Seattle and Center Stage in Baltimore. Other design projects were for films (Wisconsin Death Trip, Magic Love, Blues Before Sunrise, and The Storm That Follows Me), television (The Trial of the Moke and Fridays), videos (Martin Luther, The Prophet From Palmyra, and Harvest of Joy). Other designs have included conventions, industrials, cruise ships, mascots and photography sessions. Ellen has taught classes and workshops at UW-Milwaukee, Marquette University and the High School of the Arts in Milwaukee, where she has enjoyed seeing the next generation of theatre technicians in the making. “Variety is the spice of life and my life is certainly full of variety!”

Cindy Thomas (Administrative/Marketing Assistant, In Tandem Theatre) Cindy has been with In Tandem Theatre since August of 2008 as Marketing/ Administrative Assistant. She has been involved with the arts, especially music, since she

can remember. After graduating in 1981 from Silver Lake College with a BA in Voice and a minor in music business, Thomas moved to Milwaukee where she managed the print music departments of two local music stores and worked in sales/marketing for a print music publishing company. Cindy has sung and performed with the Milwaukee Symphony Orchestra, Music Under the Stars, Bel Canto Chorus, and is currently a member of the Florentine Opera Chorus.

Miranda Levy (Gallery Curator, In Tandem Theatre’s Tenth Street Gallery) Miranda grew up in Wilton, Wisconsin and joined the military at seventeen. She served eight years in the Army as a construction equipment

DIRECTOR ’S NOTES

When we run from something, we’re really just running to something else. And sometimes the most unlikely things or people are there to help us along the way. Annie Wilson is overwhelmed by the disengagement of those around her, believing she “cares to much in a world that doesn’t give a shit anymore.” So she runs. Anyone who’s felt that the world or their life -- or both -- are out of control, can identify with Annie. Do we cave in, go along with the flow, give up -- or do we push through and try to make the world a better place than we found it? And do we recognize that there are others out there who care, too, and that you don’t have to dance through this crazy world alone.

IN TANDEM NEEDS YOU !

We’ve accomplished a great deal for a small company since we began in 1998 and we are excited about the possibilities the future holds. As a nonprofit, 501(c)3 organization, In Tandem Theatre relies on the generosity of our patrons and friends to keep moving forward. Ticket sales, which we try to keep as reasonable as possible, can’t cover the entire costs of producing professional quality theatre. Please consider a tax-deductible donation to our annual campaign and see your contribution go directly toward productions costs (actor and designer salaries; props, costumes, sets, lights; script royalties and marketing). We appreciate your patronage very much and hope you can help us out!

ANNOUNCING OUR 2013 -2014 SEASON

In Tandem Theatre - In A Class By Itself!

BURYING THE BONES by M.E.H. LewisOctober 4-27, 2013

Set in South Africa at the end of Apartheid, Mae seeks answers to the disappearance of her school-teacher husband, James. Against the advice of her more politically aware

sister, Mae goes to the recently formed Truth and Reconciliation Commission for answers. The more Mae learns, the more she realizes how little she understands. A suspenseful

account of one woman’s journey to find the truth.

A CUDAHY CAROLER CHRISTMAS by Anthony WoodNovember 29, 2013 - January 5, 2014

Following a bitter breakup five years earlier, Stasch must reunite the Cudahy Carolers to restore the spirit of the season in this hilarious holiday homage to bowling, beer, friendship and

forgiveness! Join Stasch, Pee Wee, Edna, Trixie and the gang as they warble their way through such classics as “Ach Ya’ Der Once”, “We Three Guys from Cudahy Are”, and “O, Bowling Night”!

CHESAPEAKE by Lee BlessingFebruary 21 - March 16, 2014

A liberal, provocative performance artist at odds with a conservative Senator, hatches a plot to kidnap the Senator’s beloved dog hoping to squelch threats of federal funding cuts. When a twist of fate brings these adversaries together, chaos ensues and karma

bites back. A funny one-man “tail” about coming together for the common good.

1959 PINK THUNDERBIRD by James McLureLaundry and Bourbon and Lone Star

April 25 - May 18, 2014

In Laundry and Bourbon, a companion piece to Lone Star, the action centers on the discontent and very funny gossip of three small-town women whose lives have turned

out to be less than they had hoped. Elizabeth confides that she hasn’t seen her husband, Roy, for three days, her concern growing out of his inability to move forward since

returning from Vietnam. The second one-act, Lone Star, finds Roy and his brother out back of the local bar as Roy tries to recapture the glory days of his past in this hilarious

study of a pair of Texas brothers on a Saturday night carouse.

MISSION STATEMENTIn Tandem Theatre is committed to producing exciting, innovative theatre, presenting a creative

and eclectic program that enlightens, inspires, provokes, and entertains a diverse audience.
