All ethnicities are encouraged to audition.
Rehearsals will begin the week of 10/13 and will be 3 days/week based on cast availability. The carolers will have 3-4 rehearsals plus be called for tech week.
The cast will also be participating in the Evansville Christmas parade on Sunday, November 23rd.
Please bring a list of all conflicts during the rehearsal period to the auditions.
This production should not conflict with S2’s THE ROCKY HORROR SHOW or FOOLS.
**We will be selecting sides and adding them to the event about 1 week before auditions. Please reach out to Kim Payne if you have any additional questions. **
