EAST NOBLE THEATRE NEWS
A new Evening of Theatre director!
East Noble Theatre welcomes Suzette White to our directorial staff! She will be our new director of Evening of Theatre!
Suzette is a mom of three, all theatre & show choir kids. "We don’t do sports, we sing, dance and perform," says Suzette! She is originally from Chicago, but have lived in K’ville for the last 24 years and has been a teacher at EN for 17. "I did four years of theatre and have recently helped out Kim Mettert with the middle school productions. I am super excited to have the opportunity to share my passion with these amazing students. We will be performing a comedy this year, but I can’t say which one yet, but I have it narrowed down to two. I can’t wait to get started!"
Suzette will continue East Noble Evening of Theatre's tradition!
I know Suzette White is very excited to be a part of the theatre staff. She will also be joining us as the concession stand manager and assistant box office manager.
I also want to thank Mr. Darren Sible (EN Theatre class of 2012). He directed 3 excellent Evening of Theatre productions (Almost, Maine, The Miracle Worker, & Eurydice). While he won't be directing the winter play, you will still get to see him as you enter the theatre. He is continuing his position as the box office manager.

A New Concept!
Back in 2019 Central Noble's Theatre director, Tony Howell, came to a few area theatre directors with this collaborative idea... A show that includes Central Noble, West Noble, Garret, and East Noble. We had agreed to doing it, but then then entire world shut down due to Covid-19.
Fast forward to 2022 and I am thrilled to tell you that we are finally able to present this special collaborative piece of theatre called I Do, But He Won't! It was specially written by Tony Howell for this collaborative effort. It's a wedding comedy about two different couples getting married and each school represents a family of a bride and groom. This has never been done with any of our theatre programs before!
The show will travel to each school and will be open at East Noble on September 15 at 7:00 PM, then move on to West Noble on Saturday night, and Garret on Sunday afternoon, and will close at Central Noble on Sunday evening! Tickets are $5 and will be general admission.
I think this is a cool idea and look forward to seeing all 4 of these theatre programs come together!

Raise a Ruckus
As usual we are gearing up for the annual Apple Festival, which means the 33rd cast of Raise a Ruckus is working hard to bring you an excellent production.
This year's show will feature Miss Indiana 2022, Elizabeth Hallal, and Miss Indiana's Outstanding Teen 2022, Kayla Patterson.
We will have some of our old favorite songs, but we have decided to add a few new ones this year as well. Of course the big EN Theatre season announcement will be coming too! You don't want to miss that!

Gaslight Playhouse
I wanted to give a quick shout to to Gaslight Playhouse because there are a lot of East Noble Theatre alumni featured in their upcoming show, Clue: On Stage! Take a look at the cast list below and see if you remember any of the names from their EN Theatre days! I counted 8 EN Theatre alumni and the former East Noble Middle School Theatre director, Jo Drudge! The show is also directed by 2016 EN Theatre alumna, Jenna Boese-Dills! EN Theatre alumni are awesome!
EN Theatre Archives
Wanted to throwback 25 years ago to Raise a Ruckus 1997. This show featured Miss Indiana 1997, Sara Engerman, who was an alumna of East Noble High School! Do you recognize anyone in this photo?
