Synopsis
This adaptation of the classic novel by Alexandre Dumas is a tale of heroism, treachery, close escapes and above all, honour. Commissioned by the world famous Bristol Old Vic, it tells the story of a brother and sister, D’Artagnan and Sabine, who set off for Paris in search of adventure. D’Artagnan hopes to join the valiant King’s Musketeers. Sabine, meanwhile, is being sent to a convent school, but decides quickly that she’d rather fight by her brother’s side. Cardinal Richelieu has different plans for both. With new best friends, Athos, Porthos and Aramis by their sides, they’re determined to save the day for king and country. Dumas broke all the rules with this one, combining heroism and comedy in equal measure, and the critics agree that this is the best adaptation of the novel ever written.
“Ken Ludwig’s adaptation of Alexandre Dumas’ classic yarn is completely in keeping with the most popular Hollywood versions.” – The Bristol Evening Post.
“Ken Ludwig’s script is fairly groaning with giggles. In short, about as much fun as you would expect, and then a little more.” – Venue Magazine.
“Two hours of pure awesomeness.” – The California Aggie.

The Cast
Sean Humenny as D'artagnan
Sean feels honoured and privileged to be returning to the Korda stage in The Three Musketeers. He has been involved in theatre for many years, starting out behind the scenes, and eventually stepping onto the stage after persistent encouragement from friends and family. Selected credits include Rocky in The Rocky Horror Show (Korda Artistic Productions), Eddie in Mamma Mia! (WLMT), Kyle the UPS Guy in Legally Blonde (Cardinal Music Productions), and Harry the Horse in Guys and Dolls (Migration Hall Productions). Sean has also been the Technical Director for High School Musical Jr., Beauty and the Beast Jr., Peter Pan Jr., Aladdin Jr. (WLMT), and Mary Poppins Jr. (Migration Hall Productions). He would like to Ashley for her continued support and encouragement.
Georgie Savoie as Sabine
Georgie Savoie is a silly lady and a graduate of The University of Windsor’s BFA in Acting program (RIP UP). This is her fifth show with Korda and she is very grateful for the full year of performing that this theatre has granted her!
Nikolas Prsa as Athos
Nikolas Prsa is thrilled to join Korda Artistic Productions yet again. Having also performed with Windsor Light Music Theatre, Post Productions, and Windsor Feminist Theatre, credits in Korda’s previous season include Eric in The Best Man and Widow Twankey in Into The Pantoverse, as well as stage managing Clue (2022) and The Rocky Horror Show (2023). Special thanks to Joey and Eric T. for their vision and enthusiasm, and to Eric S. for molding him into an ambidextrous fencer. Nik also thinks Milady should have been beheaded at the end, but he doesn’t want to seem bitter. Enjoy the show! HELP!
Nicole Clark as Porthos
Nicole Clark is a jack of all trades who does a little bit of everything at the KordaZone Theatre. She has acted, painted, constructed, stage managed, directed, designed, and danced in a plethora of shows here, including The Rocky Horror Show, The Trench, Spring Awakening, Clue, Reefer Madness, Macbeth, Romeo & Juliet and more. In this show, Nicole will be playing Porthos. She also painted the set. And she hand painted 70 stones for the doorways. And she made banners. And torches…etc. etc. etc.
Gianluca Ieraci as Aramis
Gianluca Ieraci is a local actor and jazz singer. You may remember him from his more prominent roles in The Drowsy Chaperone, Guys and Dolls, and West Side Story at various theatres across Windsor.

Finally, he would like to thank all cast and crew members of The Three Musketeers for the fun times working together.

This is Lauren’s third production with Korda, after joining in 2023 for her first show and thereafter vowing to stick around like black mold. She still thinks Milady should have been beheaded at the end.
Eric Droski as Rochefort, Stanley, Father
Eric is thrilled and proud to be a part of his second KordaZone production, The Three Musketeers following his role as Miles in She Kills Monsters, and is excited to bring his version of Rochefort, the Cardinals right hand man, to the stage. Other roles include Mike Teevee (Charlie and the Chocolate Factory) with Windsor Light Music Theatre, Charlie (Hangmen) at the Shadowbox Theatre and Mug in ShoStudios production of New Canadian Kid. He appreciates you reading this and kinda feels like Milady should have been beheaded in the end.
Grant Jonsson as King Louis, Fache, Guard
Grant Jonsson is a writer and actor based in Windsor but is from many places such as Comox Valley BC, and Muskoka. He started acting and performing for the stage at the age of eight and it has been a hobby that has blessed him with immeasurable joy and passion ever since.

She has previously been involved in productions with the WLMT – Junior program assisting behind the scenes with props, set design and crew, for Beauty and the Beast Junior (2023) and High School Musical Junior (2024). She is humbly honored to be part of such an incredible cast of individuals. She dedicates each performance with love, thanks and gratitude to Emerson, Lennon, Mom, Dad, Amy and Sean.
Natalie Vriesen as Constance, Guard
Natalie is elated to be a part of Korda's The Three Musketeers. She's grateful for the hard work of the production team and stage crew and the opportunity to join her talented friends on stage.

Previous theatre credits include: The Rocky Horror Show (Janet, Korda), The Best Man (Monica, Korda), Something Rotten (Ensemble, Korda), Spring Awakening (Dancer, Korda), and Mamma Mia (Ensemble, Korda/Cardinal Music Productions).

Sarah Jane Fitzgerald as Mother Superior, Mother, Abbess
Sarah is thrilled to be back on stage at Korda after a long absence. She would like to thank Joey and the cast and crew for welcoming her back and making the whole experience so much fun. And frankly, she thinks most of these characters should have been beheaded.
