Under the artistic direction of Bob Cline and
musical direction of Gonzalo Valencia, veterans of over
16 M.O.C. productions, REPRISE celebrates the music from
Montclair Operetta Club’s rich history as the oldest
continually producing community theater in New Jersey.
Over 30 songs from the past 89 years of MOC Productions,
performed by a mammoth alumnus cast of 43, will create a
concert of music you’ll want to hear again.
Experienced theater goers and novices alike will thrill
to hear some of their favorite pieces of musical theatre
performed live on-stage. “The Montclair Operetta Club
prides itself on its rich history of producing two full
length musicals each year” says Club President Richard
O’Connor. “For the final show of our 89th season we
wanted to do something different to celebrate where
we’ve come from, and lead us into our 90th season with a
bang!”
Here are some fun facts about REPRISE:
-- REPRISE is MOC’s 178th production. -- M.O.C. has
produced 110 unique musicals in its 89 seasons. --
The Student Prince and The Desert Song are tied for the
most-revived show, each produced five times. --
REPRISE’s 43 performers come from towns throughout New
Jersey, New York, and internationally. Didi Gomez
travels the furthest from Buenos Aires, Argentina! --
Twins, Hailey and Kaitlyn Shafer are the youngest
REPRISE performers. -- REPRISE marks Danielle
Pennisi’s ninth M.O.C. Production. Her first was Titanic
in 2007. -- Some of the backstage staff have worked
on every show for more than 40 productions. -- The
Rev. Tony MacNaughton, former club president and one of
the ushers for REPRISE, has participated in every
production since 1959!

Club has been producing high-caliber musical theatre
since 1925 with its first production of “The Pirates of
Penzance” making it one of the country’s oldest
continuously producing theaters. |
