The Grey Wellington Theatre Guild is set to host a casting for its annual summer youth play, and an information night for a major musical production slated for the fall.
Auditions for the guild’s annual youth production will be held Tuesday, May 7 at the Harriston Town Hall Theatre, at 7 p.m. Auditions are open to young people aged six to 18.
Rehearsals will begin in late May for a show to be staged July 26 to 28.
This will be the 12th year the guild has offered a summer program. Previous productions have involved between 18 and 25 youth from throughout the region.
This summer’s production, Steal the Rich, was written by GWTG member Megan Raftis, who will be co-directing the show with Peggy Raftis and Dan Bieman.
There is no charge to participate, and admission for the performances will be $5 per person. For information call 519-338-3681, or email gwtg@wightman.ca.
A highlight of the Guild’s 50th anniversary this year will be a major musical production, Anne of Green Gables, set to run from Nov. 22 to Dec. 7.
Guild officials note the production will require a large cast ranging in age from youth to seniors. Previous stage experience is not a requirement.
An information night will be held on Thursday, May 9 at the Harriston Town Hall Theatre, at 7 p.m.
