WHO’S WHO IN BUDAPEST

Daniel Burke (Mr. Maraczek/Headwaiter) currently serves as an EMT with the Floral Park Fire Department.  He began his journey through the music-theatre canon in 1956 in a kindergarten production of Peter Pan and sang his first solo a year later.  Many roles and much joy since then.  Love and gratitude to the entire cast, crew and creative team of She Loves Me.  Special thanks to the Board of Maggie’s Little Theater for keeping the arts alive in our community.

Alie Campbell (Ilona Ritter) is thrilled to be playing Ilona Ritter in She Loves Me at Maggie’s Little Theater!  While she studied Musical Theater at Ohio Northern University many years ago -by day, she now works as a talent agent at MMG, a commercial and modeling agency in Manhattan. She lives just about a mile away with her boyfriend and their two feline daughters, Cricket and Freya. You might’ve seen her in Maggie’s previous production of Meshuggah-Nuns where she played Sister Amnesia. Huge thanks to Maggie’s for letting her play dress-up with such a fabulous cast and crew!

Rich Feldman (Ladislav Sipos) This marks Rich’s third time performing with MLT, having last appeared as Dr. Carrasco in its production of Man of La Mancha.  More recently, Rich appeared as Mr. Woodhouse/Mrs. Elton in Emma (Red Monkey Theater Group), Ejlert Løvborg in Hedda Gabler (Gingerbread Players), and Bishop Cauchon in La Pucelle (Wallpaper Theater Co.).  Some other notable, past roles include Howie in Rabbit Hole (City Gate Productions), Finbar Mack in The Weir (City Gate Productions), Ivan Curry in The Seafarer (Iona Theater Ensemble), Bernard in Boeing, Boeing (Parkside Players) and Dr. Chumley in Harvey (First String Players).   He is delighted to be performing in this classic rom-com musical with this very talented and supportive cast and crew.

Past credits include Silvius in As You Like It and Harvey Johnson in Bye Bye Birdie. Thank you to his parent for being so supportive, and to the crew (nobody ever thanks the crew).
