| Auditions for our first production of 2025 are coming up! Our first show is the classic musical "Into the Woods". Our version will be movement heavy and the ensemble will be creating the sets/scenes through heavy usage of props and their bodies. This theatrical style of production will require a longer rehearsal period and actors ready to work hard and have a great time playing together. |
