After the national tour, the cast for "You're a Good Man Charlie Brown" which included Tom Marks, Terry Keel, Lori Lubershane, Judy Rice, Tom Shoemarker, and myself, Michael Poss (a/k/a Michael J. Poss), revived our roles for Mill Runs Children's Theatre for afternoon performances in 1983. Judy Rice was replaced with Bonnie Sue Arp as Lucy, due to Ms. Rice being cast in another NY theatrical production. If my cast mates are reading this I sure would like to hear from you.

Fond memories being cast as Shroeder in "You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown". Harry Lee Rogers was the Director of Mill Run's Theater For Young Audiences Productions. I remember that Harry wanted the guys auditioning to do dance auditions first, then do vocal auditions if you passed the dance auditions. I was no dancer, so I faked the dance steps horribly that the choreographer wanted us to do. I left discouraged and never waited to see if Harry called my name for the vocal part of the audition. As luck would have it, a couple of days later, Harry Rogers calls me and asks if I would like to be cast as Shroeder , because the other guy he wanted to cast, accepted another role in "A Chorus Line". Harry wanted to know why I left after the Dance part of the audition, and I Said I didn't think I had a chance because I thought I was lousy. He wanted to know if I could sing, and I said singing and acting was my Forte, not so much of a dancer. He said you sure fooled me., and said report for rehearsals the next day but I want to hear you sing first. The "Charlie Brown" Musical was my first entry into Actor's Equity and my first Professional Touring PRODUCTION contract. At the time the rate was over $500 bucks a week plus annadded per diem p e r day for meals and lodging on tour. Harry Lee Rogers was responsible in giving newcomers like me my Actor's Equity Card when joining Equity was extremely difficult back in n 1982-83.
