Christopher Iannitello (Linus) spent the first sixteen years of his life going against the wishes of his older sisters and refusing to participate in theatre. Only recently has he decided to make up for lost time and start cramming. If you have seen him onstage before, it was his theatrical debut two months ago as Lord Farquaad in Treehouse Theatre's Shrek. He, bizarrely, has been a member of the Peter Quince Performing Company since 2021, and is currently the internet committee head. He would like to thank Shannon, Kevin, and David for directing this show, and making it one of the two best he's ever been in.
Since the age of three, Teresa Iannitello (Woodstock) has had a fear of the Charlie Brown cartoons. However, she’s recently decided to push past that fear and join the Charlie Brown cast as Woodstock, who has always been her favorite peanuts character. In previous theatrical escapades, Teresa has graced the stage with numerous companies across the lakeshore including the Forst Inn, Masquers, and Peter Quince Performing Company; but primarily with Treehouse Theater in 23 shows and 3 Junior Theater Festival pieces. Teresa especially wants to thank her parents and siblings for pushing her to chase her dreams, Chris Andacht and Erin Nycz for all their hard work and guidance, her friends for their encouragement through this process, and of course; Kevin Sievert, Shannon Paige, and David Bowman for putting this fun filled show together.
Gracie Kolb (Snoopy) is a graduate from the UWGB Theatre and Dance program with a bachelors degree in Musical Theatre. You may have seen her in many shows in the area, including Kaliope in She Kills Monsters and Frieda Jason in Carrie the Musical, both at the Forst Inn. Her work doesn’t end on stage, as she’s also assistant directed UWGB’s production of She Kills Monsters, as well as been wardrobe head for their production of If/Then. She’s excited to be working on this project and getting to tell this story with you.
Karter Mueller (Schroeder) is so honored to be returning to The Forst Inn stage once again this season! Karter has been in 3 shows at The Forst since last October, and he is currently in Dog Sees God as well in opposing weekends! Charlie Brown holds a special place in Karter’s heart due to him growing up on them! He would like to thank Kevin, Shannon, and the entire crew/cast that made this production possible.
Katie Naegele (Sally) is absolutely honored to be playing Sally in this production of Charlie Brown. She is also seen in the production of Dog sees God as Marcy! These are her first shows with the Forst and has had such an amazing time, she hopes to do more in the future! She wants to thank the directing team and her cast members for making her feel so welcome and loved! She also wants to thank everyone that loves and supports her, she couldn’t have done it without them!
Sydney Rabas (Lucy) is so excited to be a part of her first ever shows at the Forst Inn. She is also currently a part of Dog Sees God portraying Tricia. She could not have done it without the support of all her friends, family, cast mates, and of course, her directors. She hopes you enjoy the show!
Em Schaller (Woodstock) is a 22 year old who has been very active in the area’s community theaters. She’s been involved in over 35 productions over the span of 11 years with Dare to Dream, Treehouse Theater, the Masquers, CCC Shows, Peter Quince Performing Company, and now the Forst Inn. This is Em’s third production with the Forst Inn having performed in A Midsummer Night’s Dream as “Mustardseed”, Anatomy of Gray as “June Muldoon”, or Godspell as “Anna Maria” (Day by Day soloist). You may have most recently seen some of her work at the Forst as costume designer for Carrie the Musical or Wrinkle in Time. Em would like to thank her parents (and her cats) for their endless love and support.
Sean Stalvey (Charlie Brown) is a 2021 graduate of UW-Green Bay’s Theatre Program. Sean has been active at the Forst Inn since his college graduation, appearing in roles such as Steve the Great Mage in “She Kills Monsters'', Freddy in “Carrie: the Musical, and George in “Godspell”. Sean also appeared most recently in the Forst Inn One-Act Fringe Festival performing as Henry in “The Actor's Nightmare”. Sean is enthusiastic for having the opportunity of presenting as the titular character of Charlie Brown. Sean thanks his fellow cast members and supportive family, friends, and his pet rabbit Oreo for all of the support that he receives from them. Sean hopes that you enjoy the silly, goofy, and heartwarming experience of “You’re a Good Man Charlie Brown”!
