Bring yourself and a friend or two to audition for a special production! This spring a the Playhouse we’re partnering with Wessels Living History Farm to bring back the Melodrama!

“Belle of the Ball” takes classic fairytales and gives them a hilarious melodrama twist!

The production requires 3 men and 7 women, who are willing to be pelted with popcorn and look on the silly side of life!


Auditions will likely consist of cold reads and some improv, but the exact process is at the discretion of the director.

We are so looking forward to seeing you at one (or all) of our audition nights!
