I am delighted to return as Music Director . . .

​

. . . for the Opening Doors Theatre Company production of the 1956 musical, HAPPY HUNTING.

 

"Musical director Ted Kociolek once again does crisp, clean work and even gets into the act by amusingly playing Liz's favorite horse, who must be cajoled into letting her mistress ride her after an 18-year drought. Indeed, his cameo epitomizes the winking wit that Opening Doors repeatedly brings to these old musicals. The loving spirit is infectious and here floats a show I never thought likely to get off the ground." (Backstage)
