Madeleine German (Announcer/Male Lead/Male Amy/Rabbi )
Madeleine German has been in Maranacook's previous productions as a Wench in Once Upon a Mattress, Hank Cuffs and Mrs. Peacock for dual Productions of Clue, and a plethora roles (The Bishop, Joly, and The Pimp) in Les Mis. She has had Plenty of time to perfect her act as the token filler man of every Maranacook show. She has had so much fun with the cast this year, and hopes to be able to make the audience laugh as much during this show as she has during most of the rehearsals. *Photo by Greg Hatt*
Nico Martinez Nocito (Hamlet/Male Thespian/Male Jo)
To be or not to be an actor in a high school theater production? Well, Nico Martinez Nocito has been choosing ‘to be’ since they ended up in Once Upon A Mattress sophomore year…and you’ll get why that pun is funny once you see them in scene 4. You may remember them as ‘that guy in red in Les Mis who had way too much fun leading a revolution’ or a creepy, potentially murderous professor from Clue. In their negligible free time, they can be found dreaming about fantasy worlds, gradually improving their trombone skills, and reminding people to say ‘fewer’ instead of ‘less’. They hope you enjoy the show (and that Dan’s new name becomes a running Maranacook theater joke)! *Photo by Greg Hatt*
Brayden Bachelder  (Romeo/Scrooge/Male Meg/William Shakespeare)
Greetings, Brayden is a Junior at Maranacook High-school. He has been in theatre since his sophomore year starting as stage-crew for Once Upon a Mattress. His second role was understudy Colonel Mustard where he learned many lessons and found his place in the theatre program. His third role was Thenardier in Les Miserables which showcased his ability to be funny in any situation. This show has brought him a great challenge of multiple roles with multiple personalities. The show will either fly or sink, whichever happens he'll be laughing along with the rest of the cast. *Photo by Greg Hatt*
