ST. MARYS LITTLE THEATRE HOLDING AUDITIONS FOR CHRISTMAS PRODUCTION Tuesday, November 1st at 6 pm, Theatre by the Trax, 1000 Osborne Road, St. Marys
Twas the Night Before Christmas is the name of St. Marys Little Theatre's holiday production that will be performed at Theatre by the Trax on December 16, 17 and 18. Auditions for all parts will be held on November 1 at 6 pm at Theatre by the Trax, 1000 Osborne Road in St. Marys. Roles that need to be filled include:
Santa Claus, Mrs. Claus, 6-8 year old girl and boy, mom and dad (25-40 years old), other children to be elves, adult carolers, and more.
All roles (except mom and dad) are singing parts. Families are encouraged to audition together if interested.
According to St. Marys Little Theatre Chair, Barbara Ryan, the group's first holiday production will be an enchanting musical that will appeal to all ages.
"It begins with little Susie Anderson who lives in St. Marys and has lost her belief in Santa," Ryan said. "But before the show is over, she is inspired to believe, as will the entire audience."
Audiences can expect special effects at the same level of quality as they enjoyed in Man of La Mancha, the Theatre's premiere production. Joe and Terra Lucent, producers of 'Twas the Night Before Christmas, wanted to give the community an opportunity to share the joy of the holiday with a message of hope and love.
"We've mixed traditional songs with contemporary music and threaded it all with a story that will stir the hearts of everyone," Terra said. "My husband and I love Christmas. It really is the most wonderful time of the year, and it will be even more special this year as we endeavor to enrich the community's experience of the holidays with this beautiful production."
The play's script was written by Barbara Ryan and is anchored by the beloved poem that is carried by the play's name. Tickets can be purchased at the St. Marys Welcome Center, Bulldog Liquors, or Cedar Oak Café. Prices are $10 for adults, and $6 for children under 12. Call 912-729-1103 for more information or visit
