This year, Provi Theatre is doing May We All as its fall production! May We All is a country-themed jukebox musical, which means it pulls songs that already exist and builds a story around them. This year, we decided to interview the two senior cast members, Isabella Santschi and Cooper Ores.
Cooper Ores

A: Spring of freshman year
- Are you or have you ever been involved in theatre outside of school?
A: No and no
- What is your dream role?
A: None
- What is your favorite show you’ve ever done?
A: Mary Poppins
- Do you have a favorite memory from Provi Theatre?
A: Meeting everyone freshman year
- Any advice for new or incoming Provi Theatre cast/crew?
A: Don’t be bothersome and listen to everyone in charge.
Isabella Santschi
- What year did you start doing theatre at Providence?
A: I started fall of my freshman year.
- Are you or have you ever been involved in theatre outside of school?
A: I did youth ballet and one show outside of Providence.
- What is your dream role?
A: My dream role is Anastasia in Anastasia.
- What is your favorite show you’ve ever done?
A: Anastasia
- Do you have a favorite memory from Provi Theatre?
A: My favorite memories have been spending time with friends in the dressing room and on car rides during tech week.
- Any advice for new or incoming Provi Theatre cast/crew?
A: I would suggest doing everything you can to show the directors that you are committed to theater and that you are willing to learn and improve, even if you do not have innate talent. I would also say to form friendships with others in theater as, at least in my experience, they become some of your best friends.
Thank you for reading to these wonderful people for sharing their experiences with theatre!
