Whether you were cast or not, the directors will be available during lunch the week of 12/11 to provide audition feedback to anyone who is interested. Please stay tuned for sign ups. We are so proud of your work and are happy to share any casting insights with you.

Finally, for anyone interested, announcements will be coming for Stage Crew - we'd love to have you join the production behind the scenes!
