There are a limited number of roles for the musical. We anticipate more interested students than we will be able to accommodate. When you register, it will say "waitlist". All waitlist students will audition. If your student is cast in a role, they will move off the waitlist. If your student is not cast in a role, they will remain on the waitlist and be contacted if a role needs to be filled, and can join crew, another class,

 Live theatre thrives because of people like you. The cost of producing a show from teaching talent, sets and costumes to lighting, sound, is considerable. Your attendance and financial support make all the difference. Thank you for investing in local arts and helping us continue to tell stories onstage. This show is a combination of Community Education and ALC instructors.
