Before auditions, we introduced you to several members of our team, but it takes more people to make the magic happen! Next, we want to introduce you to Izze Bloomensaat and Hannah Schwarz: Izze has been working in the theatre industry for four years. She started out as a theater technician for Chelsea High School and has worked in lighting, stage management, and scenic carpentry. Her most recent jobs have been spot operator for The Encore, puppet designer for Chitty Chitty Bang Bang with the Burns Park Players, and light board operator for Cinderella at the Croswell Opera House. Hannah has been designing costumes since her sophomore year of high school. Some of the notable shows she has designed for are; A Midsummer Night’s Dream, The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee, High School Musical, and Chitty Chitty Bang Bang. Hannah is in her first year at Eastern Michigan University, majoring in Elementary Education. Outside of theatre, Hannah enjoys reading, singing, and hanging out with her friends! She’s very excited to design for CAP for the first time, and looks forward to the show!! Oklahoma! opens June 12th, and tickets are available at https://chelseaareaplayers.org/
