He retired after Judge Hood took a position with the city's Recorder's Court in 1989.[1] Cargle's first professional show was with the Civic Players.[1] Over the next sixty years, he is believed to have performed with most of the major theaters and theater companies in southeast Michigan.[1] He particularly active with the Detroit Repertory Theater, the Plowshare Theater Company, and the Jewish Ensemble Theatre Company.[1] Cargle and his wife, Maggie Porter, co-founded the Harmonie Park Playhouse in 1985 in the basement of the Madison-Lenox Hotel.[1] The space had previously served as a former barbershop and artist studio before the couple transformed it into a 40-seat theater for off-Broadway productions.[1] The Harmonie Park Playhouse closed in 1990.[1] (The Madison-Lenox Hotel was demolished in 2005). Cargle's last public performance was in the role of Simon in "The Whipping Man," a play jointly produced by the Plowshare Theater Company and the Jewish Ensemble Theatre Company.[1] Council Cargle died on January 2, 2013, at the age of 77.[2] He was survived by his wife, Maggie Porter.[1] Cargle was planning to perform August Wilson's "Gem of the Ocean" during the spring of 2013 at the time of his death. He was also auditioning for new roles at the Detroit Repertory Theatre, where he had performed for more than fifty years.[2] Notable theater creditsDetroit Repertory Theater
