Monte Driscoll (Dave Gordon/Delivery Man) Monte makes his triumphant return to the stage after being last featured as Whit in the Duluth Playhouse’s production of Of Mice and Men. He brings an enthusiasm to all he does and is ready to bring his confidence and walk-in-like-you-own-the-place mentality to Dave Gordon. However, he is most elated to sink his teeth into his characterization of the enigmatic Delivery Boy. Monte dedicates his performance to his wife Caroline and daughter Nola.
Scott Fudali (Dr. Roy Flemming) Scott has been involved in over 25 community theater productions since 2006, and has worked with the West Allis Players since 2011. Some favorite roles have included Max (Lend Me A Tenor), Paul Bratter (Barefoot in the Park), Harry Monday (Murder’s Bad, but Monday Can Kill You) and George Schneider (Chapter 2). Much love to his wife for all her support in his theater endeavors.
Andie Miller (Miss Petrie) After a nearly 30 year hiatus, Andie is thrilled to have followed the clues back to the theatrical stage to take on the role of the loyal and highly observant Miss Petrie. Andie’s previous roles include Lucinda (Into the Woods), Lucy (The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe), and Agnes/Amanda (Gypsy).
Angie Rodenkirch (Claire Flemming) Angie is thrilled to again be on stage with West Allis Players after having performed as Abigail Adams (1776) in 2022. Favorite recent roles around the area include: Mrs. Dashwood (Sense and Sensibility), Mother Off Color (one woman show), Chris (Calendar Girls), Jenny (Geezers), Juror 10 (12 Angry Men), and Chelsea (On Golden Pond). When not on stage, Angie works as a School Counselor and Forensics Coach.
Zach Sharrock (Lt. Columbo) Zach is beyond thrilled to be a part of this production and to bring the iconic Columbo to life. He would like to thank his grandparents and his aunt and uncle Shannon and Chad, for not only supporting his various artists endeavors, but for showing him Columbo all those years ago. Zach has previously been a cast member with Kohl’s Wild theatre and has recently been seen in The 39 Steps, Boeing Boeing, and 12 Angry Men through Waukesha Civic Theatre. Enjoy the show!
Production Crew
Pat Breed Kaiser (Director, Lighting Designer, Light/Sound Technician) Pat is delighted to be directing and lighting this show. Being a Columbo nerd she truly enjoys re-creating what was the start of one of her favorite characters. As always, she especially enjoys working on a show when she gets the chance to work alongside of her husband Bill who has been her right hand and partner throughout the entire rehearsal process.
Bill Kaiser (Assistant Director & Stage Manager) Bill has worked alongside his wife Pat theatrically for the past 47 years. Bill is usually acting on stage and Pat is either doing the lighting or the music by conducting or playing flute in the show orchestra so working in directorial roles together to create this show is very special.
Scott Fudali (Scenic & Sound Designer) Scott has been working on the technical side of theater for over 15 years designing lights, sound, and sets for different organizations including SummerStage of Delafield, Carroll University, Waukesha Civic Theatre and The West Allis Players. Some of his favorite designs have included 33 Variations, Music Man and 42nd Street at WCT; Rumors and Jesus Christ Superstar with the West Allis Players; and Boeing Boeing at SummerStage of Delafield. He hopes you enjoy the show and would like to thank his wife and parents for their continued support in all his theatre endeavors.
Shawn Anderson (Costume Designer) is happy to be providing costumes for the West Allis Players. She costumes shows regularly for New Berlin West Middle/ High School. This is her second Agatha Christie show!
