BUSINESS Wine Country Theatre to perform musical I do! I do! in July By Paula McCambridge If longtime, aging couples were asked what one addition they would make to their decades of memories, their answer would likely be, “If only we could have set our lives to music.” And now they may, through I do! I do!, written by Tom Jones and Harvey Schmidt in 1968 and performed by the Wine Country Theatre in Paso Robles two weeks in July. The musical production takes its audience through five decades of a poignant yet lighthearted marriage between Agnes and Michael Snow. And though the version performed by Wine Country Theatre begins in the 1940s and finishes in the 1990s, the story is a timeless one, director Cynthia Anthony said. “The main theme of the play is completely timeless,” Anthony emphasized. “Starting with the grand honeymoon stage then the challenges with children and aging…we see work impacting a relationship, affairs and then the empty nest. The audience goes along for the ride.” What’s particularly interesting is the fact that the play has only two characters aging from their 20s to their 70s, and only two actors play each role. For that, Anthony knew she needed two of the finest actors on the Central Coast – John Laird who will play Michael Snow and Business Spotlight By Meagan Friberg Golden Collar Canine Salon It was her love of animals that steered Teresa Coffey in the direction of becoming a dog groomer. And it’s her never-wavering commitment to ensuring pets are treated with love and respect that keeps Teresa, owner of Golden Collar Canine Salon since 2006, going strong to this day. “My motto is ‘One must do something in order to be some- Jennifer Blomfield who will play Agnes Snow. Of playing his 20-year-old self, the 60-something Laird said, laughing, “That takes a lot of acting.” Laird described the process of transitioning on-stage between one decade and the next. “The play is in sections, so we may be on-stage in our 30s then go off stage and prepare for the next scene – it’s in those moments off-stage that we kind of reset. I let the moment of the previous scene pass.” That and the fact that his counterpart onstage is a fellow actor of Blomfield’s strong ability. “We do lean on each other hugely,” he said. “She’s terrific.” Added Blomfield, “This is a show traditionally done with older actors. It takes a level of maturity to deal with the whole range of a marriage and what you go through during all those years together. I think any marriage over 10 years old has gone thing’ and my something is making sure all pets that come to Golden Collar are happy,” Teresa says. Her daughter, Ashley, says at Golden Collar “friendliness and kindness are guaranteed!” She adds, “Many owners bring their dogs to us time and time again – they would never go anyplace else because they trust us and feel comfortable leaving their pets here.” Golden Collar has undergone staff changes in the past nine months or so, with the current staff boasting a combined 100+ years of experience. Friendly, professional, dedicated, experienced and, most of all, animal lovers – that’s how Teresa describes her employees that groom dogs of all breeds, shapes, and sizes. “We take pride in listening to our clients’ needs, we groom the way our clients ask us to, and we offer suggestions if through many of the stages we see in this couple.” Laird and Blomfield are able to pull from their real-life experiences of love and loss, but those real-life experiences are matched by their extensive bodies of work performing on stage, off-stage and on camera. Blomfield began acting at 13 years old, about 50 years ago. In fact, she has never had a job that was not related to the theatre, she said. In addition to her acting work, Blomfield is the drama teacher at Mission College Prep in San Luis Obispo. In addition to his acting work, Laird is a grammy-award-winning musician for jazz vocals with the group 2+2. But it all started in Los Angeles where he performed in big church productions as a juniorhigh-school-aged child. He moved on to singing, commercials and movies. Viewers can hear him in the opening sequence of the Tim Allen movie, The Santa Clause; he’s on-camera in a big concert choir in the remake of Get Smart; he has sung with Whitney Houston and yesteryear musical star Dinah Shore. With that background, it’s no wonder the actors can do it all. “It’s very demanding for them, and on top of that, they sing and Teresa & Ashley of Golden Collar Canine Salon needed,” says Teresa, a former preschool teacher. With a special heart for elderly or special needs dogs, the caring staff treats pets the way they would like their own dogs to be treated while providing a calming, comforting, and relaxing salon atmosphere. “It’s personal with us,” says Teresa, “and we truly care about these pets. It’s a good feeling knowing we are doing something that makes the animal happy and dance,” Anthony said. “That’s the craft of acting; that’s the thrill and the challenge of acting. There are times while directing when I would remind them, you’re not pretty here – you’re not young. We have to see your negativity. They dig deep and they get it. There are so many layers in live performance. They have to act and they have to react.” To purchase tickets to see the actors in I do! I do! performing July 10, 11, 17, 18, 24 and 25 at 7:30 p.m. and July 12, 19, and 26 at 2 p.m. go to www.winecountrytheatre.com or call 1-800-838-3006. Tickets are $25 each and $15 for students. Performances are in the historic Park Street Ballroom in Paso Robles. “It’s a lovely story,” Blomfield said. “Anybody who loves the old, classic American songbook will enjoy this.” Added Laird, “It’s fun, it’s poignant; the audience will run the gamut of emotions, and at the end of the day, it lets us laugh a little at ourselves.” This is the fifth production for Wine Country Theatre, founded by Anthony in February 2014. She co-founded Classic American Theatre. She also has served as executive director of San Luis Obispo Little Theatre and Pioneer Players and served as managing director for Pacific Repertory Opera, among many other accomplishments.
