MEET THE CAST
                  GREER CALDWELL (Mrs. Phelps) is so excited to be back on the CTC stage.
                  Previous CTC credits include Kate Monster in Avenue Q, Mother in A Christmas
                  Story, and Judy in 9 to 5. This show has been particularly special as she has
                  gotten to share it with her oldest daughter. Greer is co-founder of Chattanooga
                  Moms for Social Justice. As always, tremendous thanks to my husband, mom,
                  and friends for making it possible to be a theater kid even “when I grow up,”
and love to all five of my little miracles.

               LAINE CALDWELL (Amanda/Ensemble) is making her CTC debut. She has
               appeared in the children’s ensemble of Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor
               Dreamcoat with Christian Family Theater. Laine is a fourth grader at
               Westview Elementary and the oldest of five kids. She loves playing piano,
               reading and writing stories, gymnastics, and of course theater! Thank you to
               the directors for giving her such a fun part and to her family for singing along
when she practiced.

                CHARLIE CLEVENGER (Nigel/Ensemble) is thrilled to return to CTC after last
                playing Peter Rabbit in The Tale of Peter Rabbit. Charlie is a freshman at Boyd
                Buchanan School, and this is his seventh season with CTC. Favorite roles
                include Chip in Beauty and the Beast and Wilbur in Charlotte’s Web. Charlie
                hopes you enjoy the show! :)

                ARIA COCHRAN (Hortensia/Ensemble) is an 8th grade musical theatre major
                at CCA. She has had the privilege of playing many roles, including July (Annie),
                Chef Louis (The Little Mermaid, Jr.), and Oliver Hix (Music Man, Jr.). When not
                in rehearsals, Aria enjoys ballroom dance. She is grateful for the guidance
                and support of her teachers at CCA, as well as the amazing cast and crew of
                Matilda at the CTC.

                 ERIN EAMES (Lavender) is a 7th grade student at CCA where she studies
                 musical theater, piano, and dance. She is so excited to be back at CTC where
                 she previously performed in A Year with Frog and Toad and Charlotte’s Web
                 (Fern). She has been in many other productions but her favorites include
                 Beauty and the Beast (Chip) and Christmas in the Smokies (Sarah) at Dollywood.
                 In her spare time, Erin enjoys riding roller coasters with her family and singing.
She is interested in robotics and animatronics and one day hopes to work at Disney World as
an Imagineer. She would like to thank God for the opportunity to do this show as well as her
family for supporting her.

                ROXANNE GIBSON (Alice/Ensemble) is excited to be making her CTC debut
                in Matilda. No stranger to the stage, Roxanne has trained and performed for
                most of her 12 years in many styles of dance, including ballet, jazz, and tap.
                When she is not dancing, she enjoys studying and creating art.

                COLE HAYES (Eric/Ensemble) is ten years old and is thrilled to be a part of
                Matilda. He recently played Nimble in The Tale of Peter Rabbit here at the
                CTC. Before moving from California this past winter, he played Rico in
                Madagascar and Sebastian in The Little Mermaid. He is a triplet, in the 6th
                grade, and loves reading, electronics, and sweets.

                theater. His previous role here at CTC was Joker in The Tale of Peter Rabbit.
                Before moving here from California this past winter, he played Chef Louis in
                The Little Mermaid and was Pinocchio in My Son Pinocchio. He is a triplet, in
                the 6th grade, and loves building in Minecraft and learning life hacks.

                 LARRY HUBBARD (Doctor/Sergio/Ensemble) is 45 years old and a Chemical
                 Support Specialist at Wacker Polysilicon in Charleston, TN. Larry’s work has
                 been seen on stages from Michigan to Tennessee. Favorite roles include Jean

                 Oz), and Daddy Warbucks (Annie). He is thankful that his daughter, Olivia, and
                 his son, Gabriel, encouraged him to get out there on the stage. Larry is very
thankful for his wife, Patty, for all the love and support she gives every day. He wants to thank
you for coming out to see the show. He says, “Sit back, relax and enjoy this wonderful show!”

                CALEIGH JACKSON (Female Ensemble) is a 12-year-old 7th grader at Heritage
                Middle School, and she’s so excited to be in Matilda. Past credits include Annie
                in Annie, Gingy in Shrek Jr., Susan Waverly in White Christmas, Gladys Herdman
                in The Best Christmas Pageant Ever, and many more. She would like to thank her
                family for transportation and her past directors for such wonderful mentoring.
                Caleigh hopes that her mummy says she’s a miracle for being in this show!

                KEATH JACKSON, JR. (The Escapologist) is from Memphis originally and
                graduated from UTC with a B.S. in Biology after which he started work as a
                Microbiologist in the Chattanooga/Cleveland area. He has always loved the
                arts and decided to join the CTC family to make his theatre debut as the
                Escapologist.

                LEVI JONES (Michael Wormwood) is extremely proud to join the cast of
                Matilda. Levi is a senior at Soddy Daisy High School, where he is currently
                competing in his school’s speech and debate team under the Tennessee High
                School Speech and Drama league. Recent roles for Levi include Once On This
                Island Jr. (Tonton Julian) and Newsies (Vince/Myron). He would like to dedicate
                his performance to his family, friends, and theatre teacher for supporting him in
everything he pursues, and remind them of how much they mean to him. He hopes you enjoy
the show, and remember that sometimes “you have to be loud, and stick out from the crowd”!

                TRIPP LADD (Mr. Wormwood) is a graduate of the Chattanooga State PATP. He’s
                been in many shows such as Front Page as Sue K. Hicks, Boys Life as Phil, The

                Zap! as Man, 12 Angry Men as Man 7, Uncle Phil’s Diner as PJ the DJ, and Into The
                Woods as the steward. He’d like to thank his friends and family for supporting
                him. He has had a blast with this show and can’t wait to start the next!

                ALEAH LARSON (Female Ensemble) is overjoyed to be on the CTC Mainstage in
                Matilda! She rarely has a break between theater, baking, drawing, and trying to
                learn how to play any instrument she can get her hands on. Along with starting
                off this year as The Mad Hatter in Alice in Wonderland, Jr., Aleah has been involved
                in bunches of productions the past three years, including The Lion King, Jr., The
BFG, A Year With Frog and Toad, Jr., and Newsies. Throughout these, she’s won a couple awards,
such as the Sonia Young “Crew Member of the Year” in 2018 and 2019, and “The Bear Hugger
Award” and “The Encouragement Award” at Christian Family Theater’s Paper Plate Awards.
Aleah is incredibly excited to help tell this story, and she hopes you are too!

                 KEN LeBEAU (Mechanic/Child Entertainer/Ensemble) is originally from Boston,
                 moved to Chattanooga 11 years ago, and is thrilled to be making his CTC debut.
                 His wife Sabrina and two girls live in the East Brainerd area and are members at
                 City Church. Ken’s love for theatre started in high school but really grew in college
                 where he earned a B.A. in Communications at Eastern Nazarene College. During
                 his junior year, he was part of a traveling drama troupe called S.A.L.T (serving,
acting, loving & teaching). Credits include roles in Music Man, Big River, Mikado, Children of Eden,
Our Town, The Nerd, The Madwoman of Chaillot, and Robin Hood.

                HAYLEY LEWIS (Female Ensemble) says that being in Matilda at CTC has been
                a dream come true for her. She has always enjoyed bringing positivity to those
                who need it through theatre. She is currently working on ASL, hoping to translate
                musicals with the same emotional feeling to the deaf. Hayley has been in several
                productions at CTC, including Ensemble in Once On This Island, Jr. and Meg in A
                Wrinkle in Time. This being her second year at CTC, she has won awards, including
the Director’s Award and Best Ensemble for the 2018-2019 season. To her family: “Thank you for
the constant support you’ve given me. There are not enough words to describe how much I love
each one of you.” Remember that “Somewhere inside all of us is the power to change the world.
You mustn’t let a little thing like ‘little’ stop you.”

                  ALEX LOYD (Olive/Ensemble) is excited to be a part of this production with a
                  phenomenal cast and crew. She loves musical theatre, writing, filming, reading,
                  and rock climbing. She has been with CTC for four years and feels so fortunate to
                  learn from some of the best in the business. Alex has quite a few shows under
                  her belt, but her favorite roles have been Chip in Beauty and the Beast, Children’s
                  Ensemble in Once on This Island, Sophie in The BFG, Mrs. Whatsit in A Wrinkle in
Time, Young Elsa in Frozen, Jr., and Sebastian in The Little Mermaid. She would like to thank Miss
Katherine for being the best director ever, and Mr. Huseman, Bridget, Miss Lauren, and the cast
and crew for an incredible experience. Enjoy the show and remember, “Sometimes you have to be
a little bit naughty!”

is a graduate of the Institute for Advanced Theatre Training at Harvard, where he took classes with
David Mamet, Peter Sellars, Andrei Serban, Robert Scanlan, Robert Woodruff, Anna Deveare Smith,
and Robert Brustein, among others. Todd was a teaching fellow at Harvard and has taught classes at
Vanderbilt, Boston University, University of North Carolina, and the University of South Florida. Todd
and his wife, Charlotte, are the proud parents of Jonas, Corinna, and May.

                        WAYNE SCHOCK (Patron Services Director) is celebrating his 19th season
                        with CTC. He returned to Chattanooga after graduating college, saw some
                        plays with friends, then became a subscriber. “I loved the shows and the
                        evenings out with dinner and brought family and friends for a number of
                        years.” Wayne would become the Box Office Manager; there have been
                        only four in the 95-year history of the Little Theatre/Chattanooga Theatre
                        Centre! “I feel honored to be a part of this great community organization
with such rich history. I am proud of the productions we bring Chattanooga on a yearly basis
with local talent. I love getting to know the patrons show after show. I hope to be a part of this
great institution for many years to come.”

                         CHUCK TUTTLE (Director of Education and Outreach) holds a Master
                         of Fine Arts degree in Children’s Theatre and Creative Drama from the
                         University of Texas at Austin and has over 30 years of experience doing
                         theatre with and for young people. His professional background includes
                         serving as Director of Education at Austin Theatre for Youth and Children’s
                         Theatre Workshop in Pleasanton, California. Chuck has taught theatre
                         classes to all ages in acting, playwriting, technical theatre, Shakespeare,
voice, movement, improvisation, and comedy, among others. As an actor, he has taken on such
roles as Scrooge in A Christmas Carol, Joaquin in El Californio, Simon in The Caucasian Chalk
Circle, and Billy Crocker in Anything Goes (which he performed in Hokkaido, Japan). Directing credits
include Waiting for Godot, Romeo and Juliet, Hamlet, The Nightingale, The Crucible, Once on
This Island, and Go, Dog, Go! Chuck has written several stage adaptations, most recently Plant,
Grow, Pick for CTC’s Theatre for the Very Young program. For the past three summers, he has
collaborated with composer Michael Huseman to create short musicals for CTC’s Summer Musical
Performance Training Academy. As sponsor and advisor of CTC’s teen interest group, TheatreQuest,
he contributes to and directs The Alphabet Plays, an ongoing series of plays for young children.

                     JULIE VAN VALKENBURG (Marketing Director) is overjoyed to be a member
                     of the Theatre Centre staff, transitioning her 25 years of volunteer experience
                     at the CTC into her dream job at her home away from home. She brings
                     over 30 years of experience in writing, marketing, media relations, graphic
                     design, and digital marketing to the role. As a volunteer, she has worked
                     onstage and backstage, including lending a hand as a stage manager (most
                     recently Les Miserables and Harvey) and, over the years, as a box office,
costume shop, scene shop, and special events volunteer. A six-time Miss Annie Award winner,
Julie appeared most recently in A Room with a View. After making her LTC/CTC debut in A
Streetcar Named Desire, she went on to other favorite roles in Vanya and Sonia and Masha and
Spike, Six Degrees of Separation, Rumors, God of Carnage, Spinning into Butter, Enchanted April,
Dearly Departed, and Cat on a Hot Tin Roof. Julie has appeared on other stages in August: Osage
County, The Laramie Project, and Hamlet. She shares her love of theatre with her husband,
Rodney, and son, Jake, both of whom have appeared on the CTC stage.
