About Stage Left: Stage Left of Georgetown Community Theatre is a teaching program, and while we have always ended up with a production that we can all be proud of, the production is simply the reward for time and creativity contributed to the process. There are a great number of roles in the production and we try to cast everyone. That does not mean everyone is cast in a speaking role, but each person will be included on stage or behind the scenes in some way. Students will be asked to participate in publicity, costume design, and set design. The main goal being a fully youth run production, including operation of lights and sound and stage management.

That being said, we will need a great number of adult volunteers. The parents of children who are cast will be expected to volunteer at least six hours during the course of rehearsal and the production. We need people to help supervise kids both during rehearsals and performances, people to help build and paint sets, people to help with makeup, costume construction, and many other tasks. We want all the children to have a great experience, and it takes a village. The directors and the producer will be busy during rehearsal coaching actors and coordinating all the aspects of the production, and cannot be expected to know where all members of a cast are at all times. Before your child auditions, please make sure you are able to honor this commitment.

Other important dates:
First cast meeting and read through: March 6 from 4-7 PM
Rehearsals: Begin March 21 on Sundays from 4 -7 and Mondays and Thursdays from 5-7
Dress Rehearsal Week: May 15-19 (we will rehearse daily and all cast members must attend)

We are very excited!  Can't wait to meet with all of our Stage Left friends, both old and new!
