Steve Stumphauzer: Frank-N-Furter. Steve is 80% excited, 20%

terrified to be performing this dream role. Luckily, he has a wealth of

experience in such high-brow fare as Psycho Beach Party, Evil Dead the

Musical, and Reefer Madness, as well as a deep life long appreciation for

Anne Baxter in The 10 Commandments to help him prepare for this character.

He would like to thank this fabulous cast for making this experience a joy, and

give recognition to Ashley's basement, where he was first exposed to the

magic that is the Rocky Horror Show.

Juliana Sutliff: Phantom. Juliana Sutliff (Phantom) is a huge fan of

Rocky Horror- both on the stage and the screen. If you follow the local high

school theaters, you may have seen her as Jordan Baker in Hilliard Bradley

High School's production of The Great Gatsby or in any number of their

shows over the past four years. Juliana is heading to college next year for

the performing arts, specifically in the field of acting for film.

Julia Tvardovskaya: Phantom. New to Columbus, The Rocky Horror

Show is Julia's first performance with Imagine Productions. Trained in

musical and classical theatre, Julia has played roles varying from Marc

Antony in Shakespeare's "Julius Caesar" to Olive Ostrovsky in Rebecca

Feldman's "The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee," as well as

many others. Most recently, Julia performed as Tillie in "The Effect of

Gamma Rays on Man-in-the-Moon Marigolds" at Lehigh University, where

she received her higher education and graduated with both a B.S. and a

B.A. Julia has performed in the greater Cleveland area, in the greater Philadelphia area, and in the

greater Columbus area, and would like to thank her family and friends who not only have supported

her, but who have traveled to see every performance. Julia, who speaks English, Ukrainian, and

Russian fluently and has been to 13 countries, loves to travel and is looking forward to performing on

both a national and global scale!

Imagine Productions is proud to be a Member of the following:

cast and crew. Although this is his first production with Imagine, Jay was most

recently in the musical revue Upsidedown Broadway, as Wyatt in Marion

of Mary Poppins. Jay is currently a senior at The Ohio State University in the

Fisher Business School majoring in business economics and minoring in

theatre. He would like to thank his many theatre mentors he has had

throughout his life as well as his incredibly supportive family and friends.

wonderful family, friends, coworkers and my best friend, Candice Kight.

Alexander Sanchez: Phantom. Alexander is ecstatic to be performing for

the first time with Imagine Productions and in The Rocky Horror Show. He is

no stranger to the stage. Currently he is earning his degree in theatre with an

emphasis in music and dance from The Ohio State University. Recently he has

performed in The Coast of llyria, Footloose, The Jungle Book, and Company.

Lastly, he wants to thank the entire creative team for inspiring this crazy

exciting production, his parents for allowing him to chase his dreams, and most

importantly the audience for supporting live theatre. Hold onto your seats as

do the time warp again.

Briana Schubert: Phantom. I am so excited to be debuting with

Imagine Productions as a Phantom in this production! A northeast Ohio

native, I have been in multiple community theatre productions in the Canton

area, including A Christmas Carol and The Wizard of Oz. At Sandy Valley

High School, I participated in Annie (Annie), Grease (Rizzo), Anything Goes

(Reno Sweeney), and Beauty and the Beast (Belle). I can't thank my Rocky

family enough for the countless laughs and fun, and my real family for all the

love and support. Thank you all for supporting the local theatre community!

We love you!

young to do so.
