If selected, you will be asked to submit a "virtual callback" immediately. I will give them the "self tape" specs at that time.
For those "called back," we are looking for a Shakespeare piece in verse, no longer than two minutes and if they play an instrument, a short sample of their work.
THE ADDAMS FAMILY, a comical feast that embraces the wackiness in every family, features an original story and a dilemma that’s every father’s nightmare: Wednesday Addams, the ultimate princess of darkness, has grown up and fallen in love with a sweet, smart young man from a respectable family—a man her parents have never met. And if that wasn’t upsetting enough, Wednesday confides in her father and begs him not to tell her mother. Now, Gomez Addams must do something he’s never done before—keep a secret from his beloved wife, Morticia. Everything will change for the whole family on the fateful night they host a dinner for Wednesday’s “normal” boyfriend and his parents.

SUPERIOR DONUTS by Tracy Letts
Directed by Robby Myles
Superior Donuts is a warm, funny, and deeply human comedy-drama by Pulitzer Prize–winning playwright Tracy Letts that explores the fault lines of modern urban America. Set in a struggling donut shop in Chicago’s Uptown neighborhood, the play follows a weary former activist whose once-vibrant ideals have faded along with his business. When a bright, ambitious young Black writer arrives looking for work, the two men form an unlikely friendship that becomes the heart of the story.
Through their relationship, Superior Donuts examines a range of pressing social issues, including race, economic inequality, gentrification, immigration, violence, and the widening gap between generations. As one clings to the past and another fights to build a future, the donut shop becomes a microcosm of a changing city, where longtime residents, newcomers, dreamers, and strivers collide. Financial hardship and neighborhood tensions threaten not only the business, but also the fragile sense of community it represents.
Balancing sharp humor with emotional depth, Superior Donuts is both an intimate character study and a larger reflection on who gets left behind in an America shaped by shifting neighborhoods, systemic inequities, and the search for belonging. With wit, compassion, and honesty, Letts creates a moving portrait of friendship, resilience, and the hope of redemption in a divided world.

A GOOD PANTO DIE HARD
Written by Trevor O'Connell
Directed by Kathleen McManus
A Good Panto Die Hard is an adult-rated, high-energy musical parody by Trevor O'Connell that blends the 1988 blockbuster with traditional British pantomime. Expect hilarious audience call-and-response, cheesy dance routines, and bare-foot heroics as John McClane tackles Hans Gruber to the tune of holiday sing-alongs.
Runs Thursday, December 3rd through Sunday, December 20th
BEAUTY AND THE BEAST
Written by Brian Luff
Directed by John Ammerman
This is a show that will delight families of all ages.

Plus, good and bad fairies, ugly sisters (showing up in the wrong panto) and a cheeky talking sheep called Lampard. FYI – Not Disney’s Beauty and the Beast! Runs Saturday, December 5th through Saturday, December 19th

Our biggest annual event is the Life in the Cemetery tour. Each October, actors portray different residents of our cemetery. Visitors can take a guided walk and meet each resident.
The first tour, in 2022, shared the history of the city through the cemetery’s residents. The 2023 tour was all about the railroad in Kennesaw. In 2024, we highlighted veterans’ stories, and most recently the tour theme was “Putting Kennesaw on the Map.”
Thank you to all our 2025 sponsors! We can’t wait for our next tour!
Stephen Karam’s The Humans is a haunting, darkly comic family drama that captures the anxieties of modern life with honesty and empathy. Set in a Chinatown apartment on Thanksgiving, the play follows the Blake family as they gather to celebrate the holiday. Over the course of one evening, secrets emerge, tensions flare, and unspoken fears about health, money, and mortality bubble to the surface. Blending sharp humor with unsettling suspense, The Humans is a deeply relatable portrait of what it means to be human in an uncertain world.
AUDITIONS Jul 27 - 28, 2026
UPCOMING AUDITIONS
Driven by obsession and scientific ambition, Victor Frankenstein succeeds in doing the impossible: creating life from death. But the moment his Creature awakens, Victor abandons the very being he brought into existence. Left utterly alone in a world that fears and despises him, the Creature struggles to understand humanity, longing for compassion while enduring cruelty and rejection at every turn. As isolation and heartbreak give way to anger, creator and creation become locked in a devastating pursuit that destroys everyone around them.
Christopher O’Neal’s adaptation of Frankenstein brings Mary Shelley’s legendary novel vividly to the stage with Gothic atmosphere, emotional intensity, and psychological depth. More than a horror story, the play explores timeless questions about responsibility, morality, alienation, and what truly makes someone monstrous. Filled with suspense, tragedy, and striking theatrical imagery, this adaptation offers audiences a chilling and emotionally powerful Halloween-season experience.

A sunny room on an upper floor is prime real estate in the Bristol Place Senior Living Facility, so when the cantankerous Abby is forced to share her quarters with new-arrival Marilyn, she has no choice but to get rid of the infuriatingly chipper woman by any means necessary. A seemingly harmless bet between the old women quickly escalates into a dangerous game of one-upmanship that reveals not just the tenacity of these worthy opponents, but also deeper truths that each would rather remain hidden.
Ripcord is Directed by Lilliangina Quinones and runs from October 3-18.

Brooke Wyeth returns home to Palm Springs after a six-year absence to celebrate Christmas with her parents and bearing a manuscript which reveals a devastating episode in the life of her wealthy Republican family.
