Noblesville native Joey Alise Murello, was crowned People On Wheels’ Ms. Wheelchair Indiana 2010 at
Indianapolis Museum of Art ceremonies in support of Disability Awareness Month, on Saturday, March
6th. The event is a People On Wheels outreach to promote the disability community and provide a
platform for a dialogue from which disabled women can address their fellow Hoosiers.
Murello is 26 years old and works full time at International Medical Group in Indianapolis. She suffers
from Friedreich's ataxia, an inherited disease that causes progressive damage to the nervous system
resulting in degeneration of nerve tissue in the spinal cord.
Murello is a graduate of Noblesville High School and attended Anderson University. She spends a great
deal of time volunteering and working with children, both as a cheerleading coach for the Upward
Basketball season at her church and with the Apprentice Players at the Hamilton County Belfry Theatre.
As Ms. Wheelchair Indiana 2010, Joey says she “will promote and focus on the abilities of those with
disabilities to help remove the perception that ‘we are different.’”
People On Wheels’ Ms. Wheelchair Indiana program focuses on the accomplishments of Indiana residents
with disabilities. “Our mission is to educate, advocate and raise awareness of the abilities and
needs of the disability community,” said People On Wheels president, Nancy Cotterill. The titleholder
will enjoy a year long reign speaking at various engagements throughout the state. Murello will travel to
Grand Rapids, Michigan to compete in the Ms. Wheelchair America Pageant 2011, to be held August 9-
15, 2010.

A fledgling playwright and his fiancée, a couple of Buffalo greenhorns are suddenly swept up in the whirlwind of New
York's theatre scene when the playwright’s autobiographical play is optioned for Broadway. It's a young playwright's
dream, but the characters and dilemmas they encounter in New York are the things nightmares are made of.

FOOLS by Neil Simon
Directed By Ryan T. Shelton
Leon Tolchinsky is ecstatic. He’s landed a terrific job in an idyllic Russian town known as Kulyenchikov. “It’s exactly as I
pictured: a quiet, pleasant village, not too large… the perfect place for a new schoolteacher to begin his career.”
However, things began to change when he finds a butcher sweeping dust from the stoop back into his store, a sheepless
shepherd who can’t remember his name, and a fish vendor selling flowers for food and milking her cow upside-down. Of
course, a sensible person would just leave, but then Leon meets Sophia.

Felix Humble returns home after the sudden death of his father. Confrontations with his mother and her soon-to-be new
