State Street Theater is offering an open call as we are seeking a director for our December production of The Best Christmas Pageant Ever.
In this hilarious Christmas classic, a couple struggling to put on a church Christmas pageant is faced with casting the Herdman kids – probably the most inventively awful kids in history. You won’t believe the mayhem – and the fun – when the Herdmans collide head-on with the story of Christmas!
This delightful show is adapted from the bestselling Young Adult book and has become a holiday staple for groups across the United States. The crowd-pleasing comedy features plenty of great roles for children and adults, a few favorite Christmas Carols, and lots of laughs. We will be doing the play version, not the musical.
Other roles we are filling are Assistant Director, Stage Manager, Lighting technician, Sound technician, Spotlight operator, Props Coordinator, and Costume Designer.
Auditions may start as early as August, and rehearsals begin in September.
The performances will run:
- Friday, December 6, 2024 @ 7 PM
- Saturday, December 7, 2024 @ 7 PM
- Sunday, December 8, 2024 @ 2 PM
Those interested in this opportunity and who want to learn more, including director interviews, please contact info@statestreetnewulm.org or 507-359-9990 by August 16, 2024.
