The Passing of Henry Cepluch

MISC_Henry CepluchFrom Brown Dawson Flick Funeral Home

Henry “Hank” Cepluch,  educator, actor, director, citizen took his final bow on Monday, November 1, 2021 at Hospice of Hamilton. He was born in Hamilton on March 8, 1943, the first child of Henry and Mary Rose (Burer) Cepluch. He was preceded in death by his sister Mary Lou and his parents. He leaves his friend and companion of 57 years Pat Ganz, four brothers; Bob (Patti), Don (Betty), Dick (Joyce) and Steve Cepluch, plus many nieces, nephews and friends and his two dogs Jackie and Lola.

Henry loved the arts, especially theatre and music. He was an avid reader and shared this love with many throughout the Hamilton community. Teaching was his passion whether it was in the classroom, in a theatre or in small gatherings. In addition to his many awards and honors, his kindness, and his sense of humor, he will be remembered for his laugh that not only filled a room but also the heart. Henry made a difference in this world.

Visitation will be held on Wednesday, November 10, 2021 from 1:00 PM until the time of his Memorial Service at 3:00 PM at Brown Dawson Flick Funeral Home, 1350 Millville Ave., Hamilton, Ohio 45013.

In lieu of flowers, contributions may be made to Animal Friends on Princeton Road, The Greater Hamilton Civic Theatre or the Lane Public Library.

Auditions Announced for AMOUR at Greater Hamilton Civic Theatre

GHCT_logoAMOUR
Directed by Ryan Heinrich
Produced by Erin Heinrich
Sponsored by Dr. and Mrs. Max Iltzsch

AMOUR, a charming two-act romantic fantasy by legendary composer Michel Legrand, featuring witty lyrics by Jeremy Sams and a fanciful libretto by Didier van Cauwelaert, is based on a beloved French short story written by Marcel Aymé in 1941.

  • Sun, Nov. 7 from 7:30-9:30pm
  • Mon, Nov. 8 from 7:30-9:30pm

The Creative Center at the Palace
215 S. Third St.
Hamilton, OH 45011

COVID POLICY
Masks will be required at the audition, except when singing your vocal selection. Unless circumstances change, masks will be required at rehearsals and at the theatre, except when on stage.

WHAT TO PREPARE
Amour is completely sung-through. With that in mind, please prepare one minute of an appropriate Broadway-style song that shows your personality and your ability to believably tell a story through song.

An accompanist will be provided. You may be asked to stay and learn vocal selections from the show. You will not be asked to dance. Please bring sheet music for the accompanist. No recordings or tracks will be permitted.

CASTING
This is an ensemble musical with a small, adult cast, playing mostly quirky characters. Some roles are larger than others, but everyone will be featured, so the entire cast must be excellent singers/actors.

REHEARSALS
Rehearsals will begin the week of January 2nd and will be four nights/week (nights TBD) until the week before tech week. Tech week begins February 6th.

Performances are set for February 10-13, 2022.
