We present these pages to offer some
well-deserved recognition for the wonderful people who
have given their ideas, sweat, and time to the Marshalltown Community
Theatre. Without their efforts, our theatre would be little
more than a dark room. We celebrate your generous gift to our
community!
If
you
have participated in an MCT production in the past, in any capacity,
please take your bow with the folks on these pages. Contact the MCT
Technical Director to arrange to be included.

Kelsey SAWTELLE
Marshalltown, IA
As a student at the
University of Northern Iowa, Kelsey was not only studying to be a speech
and language pathologist, but she also pursued a Dance, Spanish, and
Education triple minor, which led her to comment, "I will be in college
forever." She took time out during the summer of 2008 to be a chorus
member in OLIVER! With the free time she has remaining, she enjoys
watching strange Indie films, knitting, and singing in her car.
"It's a charmed life."

Steve SCHEIDING
Marshalltown, IA
Steve
was last seen on our stage, portraying Uncle Ben in our 2003 production of
DEATH OF A SALESMAN. He
started at MCT in 1985 by
volunteering to help make stage flats. He was stage manager for
Agatha Christie's TEN LITTLE INDIANS, and his first acting experience on
our stage was in A THOUSAND CLOWNS. Steve has demonstrated his
ability to be "thoroughly theatre" by working on the "dark side of the
lights" as a member of the lighting and sound crew for various productions
as well. He can truly be considered a "seasoned" thespian, as he has
been acting since called upon to portray King David in an “E. U. B.
Methodist Church” play at a mere five years old!
