A troupe of five talented actors will use comedy and music, to tell us the tale… with a twist. 

This play is fast paced and funny!

Auditioning at the Aloha Theatre

Only actors who are auditioning for a part will be able to come inside the audition room. Parents and other guests may sit on the lanai or leave the theater and come back at the end of auditions.

Please review the production calendar and ensure that you are able to make all the performance dates. Performance date conflicts will immediately remove you from consideration. Missing a few rehearsal days does not need to be a big deal so long as the director is aware in advance and can plan around absences.
