To Everyone Who Auditioned,

Thank you so much for sharing your work with us. Auditioning is one of the most difficult parts of theater and it's never easy to put yourself out there in front of others to showcase yourselves in such a way. You should consider your bravery and determination a success in its own right.

There will be additional information sent out to you via email in the days to follow as the rehearsal process begins. We are so excited to work together with you all to bring this story to life! We hope you are as well!
