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.

Audition information: Please prepare no more than 32 bars that best show off your vocal abilities and bring sheet music in your key. An accompanist will be provided. No acapella auditions will be accepted. There may be readings from the script, and there
will be no dance/movement call.

FAILURE: A Love Story Runs Jan. 3-12

FAILURE: A Love Story
Springboro Community Theatre
Jan. 3-12
Springfield Performing Arts Center

Directed by Julia Gomez

Cast: Sawyer Schafer as Gertrude Fail, Madelyn Sweet as Jenny June Fail, Ryleigh Sadler as Nelly Fail, Mason McHone as Mortimer Mortimer, Zella Younce as John N. Fail, Avery Adkins as Cuckoo Clock/Front Door/Window/Chorus, Belle Scherquist as Chorus, Brenna Lawrence as Mae/Counter Clock/Chorus, Chloe Nelson as Grantland Rice/Chorus, Heather Hilderbrand as Marietta Fail/Gramophone/Chorus, Milena Moncayo as Henry Fail/Moses/Chorus, Myka Denison as Chorus, Nicole Denison as Dog/Grandfather Clock/Chorus & Zoe Hancock as December/Wall Clock/Chorus

By the end of 1928, all three Fail sisters will be dead — expiring in reverse order, youngest to oldest, from blunt object to the head, disappearance, and finally consumption. Tuneful songs, and a whimsical chorus follow the story of Nelly, Jenny June, and Gerty as they live out their lives above the family clock repair shop near the Chicago River, before their time unexpectedly runs out. A magical, musical fable where, in the end, the power of love is far greater than any individual’s successes or failures.

  • Sun, Jan. 5 at 2pm
  • Fri-Sat, Jan. 10-11 at 7pm

STAGE KISS Runs Sept. 13-22

STAGE KISS
Springboro Community Theatre
Sept. 13-22
Springboro Performing Arts Center

Directed by Aaron Joseph Brewer

Art imitates Life. Life imitates Art. When two actors with a history – SHE and HE – are thrown together as romantic leads in a forgotten 1930s melodrama about a dying socialite who recalls her former lover to her side, they quickly lose touch with reality as the feelings that the characters and the actors once had for each other reignite in a burst of passion. In real life, SHE is married to a banker, Harrison, and has a teenage daughter, Angela, while HE has a girlfriend, Laurie. As the farcical, romantic nature of their relationship plays out onstage and off, they are forced to confront the realities of their affair. Stage Kiss captures Sarah Ruhl’s singular voice; it is a charming tale about what happens when lovers share a stage kiss—or when actors share a real one.

  • Fri-Sat, Sept. 13-14 at 8pm
  • Sun, Sept. 15 at 2pm
