Decatur resident, and Advertising Director for The Decatur Daily, David Minnich portrays both the genius and humorously cynical sides of noted inventor, Thomas Edison. David last appeared in his TH and Wings Award-winning role of Norman Thayer in Theatre Huntsville's "On Golden Pond," last summer. Before moving this area, just a few years ago, David had appeared in over 70 plays in the previous 40 years … mostly in his previous home in Florida.
Huntsville resident, and Redstone Arsenal employee, John Seigh portrays the gregarious, back-room negotiating, "didn't want to be" Twenty-ninth President, Warren G. Harding. John last appeared onstage as Lord Augustus "Tuppy" Lorton, in Theatre Huntsville's 2003 "Lady Windermere's Fan." He's also appeared in TH's "The Man Who Came to Dinner," "The Last Night of Ballyhoo," "Anne of the Thousand Days," and "To Kill a Mockingbird," as well as Fantasy Playhouse's "The Christmas Carol."
Meridianville resident, and Knology employee, Chad Rodriguez portrays Harding's "none-too-amused" Secret Service man, Colonel Starling. Chad previously appeared last summer in Theatre Huntsville's "As You Like It" and earlier that same season in TH's "The Man Who Came to Dinner."
A veteran both on- and off-stage, Huntsville resident and CAS employee, John Hancock (TH's director of "Incorruptible" and "How the Other Half Loves," and HCCA's 2003 director of "Kiss Me, Kate" … and most recently seen onstage as Gandalf the Wizard in Fantasy Playhouse's "The Hobbit") directs "a great cast of veteran actors in this wonderfully funny and well-written play." His Assistant Director, Huntsville resident and Perkins Technical Services employee, Tim Adams (making his directorial debut, but a veteran of many Huntsville theatrical productions, on the technical side), calls the play "a hoot … a play theatre goers in this area DON'T want to miss."
