A lot of people don’t realize that in addition to Heroic characters, great Villains often make our stories really come to life. And that is never more true than with our next featured actor: Brady Hood as the irascible Borachio in NCCC’s “A Totally 80’s Much Ado About Nothing”!! Ever the opportunist Borachio makes it his mission to profit from Don John’s pursuit of mischief in Padua, Italy where our play is set. Brady is a graduating senior at NCCC making his stage debut for the Theatre department this Friday April 10th & Saturday April 11th. Our doors open at 6:30 pm, the show begins at 7:00 pm, & admission is free. So please purchase a coffee while you enjoy our show!!!

I am so proud to introduce our next featured actor for today, Justin Ndindiri! Justin is studying internationally with NCCC here in Chanute and is one of our immensely talented graduating Seniors this year. He plays the charming Don Pedro in our production of William Shakespeare’s Much Ado About Nothing. Don Pedro is a wealthy noble who has began a quest to bring together two quarreling lovers in Benedick & Beatrice proclaiming “We are the only Love gods where Cupid finds his arrow loosed!” Such poetry could only come from the matchmaker of our play Don Pedro!

For our next featured actor, we want to introduce the amazing KJ! KJ is a student athlete for the NCCC wrestling team and certainly brings the heat to our performance of Much Ado About Nothing as well! KJ plays the lead role of Benedick, a young & promising soldier who returns to Padua after the war only to run into his former love Beatrice. “There is nary a skirmish of wit between them!” “If they were married, they would talk themselves mad!” Are two quotes that so accurately describe Benedick’s situation-ship with the fiery Beatrice.

For our next featured actor, I am proud to introduce Joseph Leach a first year, second semester theatre major! Joseph plays Don John, a conniving & scheming aristocratic brother of Don Pedro who will stop at nothing to cause the most amount of mischief. Joseph appeared in last semester’s All In the Timing production and is very active in the local Chanute community theatre scene. You will want to root for Joseph on stage, while you hope his character Don John’s plans for villainy go awry.
