THE WEDDING SINGER
April 16 – May 11, 2025
Music by Matthew Sklar, Book by Chad Beguelin and Tim Herlihy Lyrics by Chad Beguelin

It’s 1985, and rock star wannabe, Robbie Hart, is New Jersey’s favorite wedding singer. He’s the life of the party until his own fiancée leaves him at the altar. Shot through the heart, Robbie makes every wedding as disastrous as his own. Enter Julia, a winsome waitress who wins his affection. As luck would have it, Julia is about to be married to a Wall Street shark, and unless Robbie can pull off the performance of a decade, the girl of his dreams will be gone forever.

Auditions Announced for ASSASSINS at Springboro Community Theatre

UPDATE: Due to the current winter storm and unsafe travel conditions, we are rescheduling auditions for “Assassins” to ensure everyone’s safety. The new audition dates will be January 7th and 8th, 2025, at 7:00 PM.

Feel free to message our page with any questions or concerns!

Springboro Community Theatre is excited to announce auditions for ASSASSINS, our next mainstage musical.

About the musical: ASSASSINS is a musical with music and lyrics by Stephen Sondheim and a book by John Weidman, based on an original concept by Charles Gilbert, Jr. Using the framing device of an all-American, yet sinister, carnival game, the semi-revue portrays a group of historical figures who attempted (successfully or not) to assassinate Presidents of the United States and explores what their presence in American history says about the ideals of their country. The score is written to reflect both popular music of the various depicted eras and a broader tradition of “patriotic” American music.

Director: Aiden Dalton

Seeking: 1 Designer to do both set & lightning design for LATE, A Cowboy Song by Sarah Ruhl. Designer will also lead the team in construction, painting, & load in of the set, as needed; and create cue list and assist with light hang, as needed. We strongly encourage BIPOC and LGBTQIA+ designers to submit their work, as we seek to uplift the voices of underrepresented artists.

Synopsis of the show: Mary, always late and always married, meets a lady cowboy named Red who teaches her how to ride a horse. Red exudes a taste of freedom that Mary didn’t even know she lacked, and is suddenly desperate to find.
