NEWLY MINTED AMERICAN CIVIL WAR MUSICAL!

KNOWLTON PLAYERS PREMIERE DIRECTED BY VESTA JORGENSEN

WAITING ON A DREAM ! ! !

2014 – THE 100th ANNIVERSARY OF THE AMERICAN CIVIL WAR: A tender love story, a bank

robbery gone hilariously wrong, a foiled escape to Canada, a tipsy judge, patent medicines,

and the hopes and dreams of soldiers and civilians on both sides caught up in an ‘act of war’

–– or was it?

Based on the true story of the “Northernmost Battle of the American Civil War” and three

remarkable period diaries.

Book by Roger de la Mare (Adapted from Raid From Hell by Don Davison)

Music by Donald Patriquin – Lyrics by Graham Hardman

DVD & info about this fun ‘family’ musical for professional or amateur theatre.

It is 1864 and the American Civil War is in full swing – North against South, brother against brother.

Canada, fearing the North might annex adjacent Canadian territory, was partial to the South, tacitly

allowing Montreal to become headquarters for the Southern Confederates (a.k.a. Rebels) battling the Northern Union Army. There is, however, a commonality in all of this: each of the protagonists

– Rebels, Unionists and civilians alike – has dreams of a better tomorrow. It is against this backdrop

that Waiting on a Dream unfolds.

The essential story – the plotting, the raid, and the subsequent trial – as well as many participants

– are historical fact, and are combined with information gleaned from three revealing period diaries

penned by a ‘Doc’ Rumsey, in reality a destitute lawyer. The diaries fell into the hands of novelist

Donald Davison and became the basis for the shenanigans in which Rumsey was unwittingly involved. He becomes entangled in Confederate Officer Bennett H. Young’s raid on the banks of St.

Albans, Vermont, as well as with a bright-eyed ‘Northern’ woman, and thereby hangs the tale.

Dreams are realized, dreams are shattered, but throughout there is always hope – and laughter!

The show is technically simple to produce, and is in the mould of traditional musicals but with a

dash of rap, tango and patter songs along with the big full-cast numbers.

The songs – nicely challenging but not tough – are spread among the performers, enabling them to have their moments of glory.

Minimum cast: 21 (11 guys, 6 gals, 4 extras). Some male parts may be played by women Accompaniment: keyboard & drum set; optional flute & cello. Length: 2 hours (2 acts)

Here are a few more pieces “just off the press”, followed by the

catalog excerpted from the website www.DonaldPatriquin.com

World Music Suite Three (2011) This half hour work was premiered in May 2011 and consists of nine movements, which may be performed separately. The suite is currently available as a festival piece in SATB+SSA, and will shortly be published in both SSAA & SATB voicings (available summer 2012)

Come and See the Little Child (New version for satb + piano 2011). Originally unaccompanied and in hymn format, this lively gospel carol may be accompanied by keyboard and/or guitar. Something new for Christmas?!

If you are interested in commissioning choral music, I invite you to consider me! As you can see, I have had many commissions. Probably 80% of all the choral music I have written has been commissioned. I love working on World Music (a.k.a. folk-song derived/related) projects. These are very satisfactory as directors often seem to have pieces up their sleeves which they’d like arranged for their choral ensembles. ‘Original’ music is also a possibility, though the process is longer. The cost is not an ‘arm and a leg’ and it costs nothing to inquire! [email protected] 450-297-2779

Thank you for making it this far. Happy singing! Donald P
