“You’re A Good Man Charlie Brown”
Get ready to enjoy an energetic Broadway musical right here in Yea, the first two weekends in August!
Charles Schulz’s beloved comic comes to life in Clark Gesner’s classic musical, You’re a Good Man, Charlie Brown. Charlie Brown and the entire Peanuts gang explore life’s great questions as they play baseball, struggle with homework, sing songs, swoon over their crushes, and celebrate the joy of friendship. The whole gang is here: bossy Lucy is hopelessly in love with piano prodigy Schroeder who doesn’t give her the time of day, perfectionist Sally is still mocking blanket-toting Linus, Snoopy is in the doghouse, and “blockhead,” himself, Charlie Brown, is in rare form. Brief vignettes span from Valentine’s Day to Beethoven Day, from wild optimism to utter despair. The show is full of fun songs, particularly funny dialogue, and catchy orchestrations. Whether you’re keen to fly with the Red Baron, moon over the Moonlight Sonata, or just do your best to find “Happiness,” You’re a Good Man, Charlie Brown is a crowd-pleasing classic.
About Us.
YAPPERS is your community theatre operating as part of Yea Arts Inc. Based in Yea Victoria, our active members come from a wide area taking in Seymour, Alexandra, Limestone, Murrindindi and beyond.
We welcome anyone to participate in the group, which puts on a few shows a year. We love comedy and musicals, and have roles for actors both experienced and inexperienced. There’s also plenty to do that doesn’t involve being on stage! If you’re interested in technical roles – lighting, sound, stage and more – we’ll train you in the required skills. We also have less-skilled roles – stagehand, front of house – as well as marketing and administration, which you can help out with at any time.
