The Footlight Players’ Play Selection Committee is beginning the daunting task of picking a slate of five productions for their 71st season. They are in the process of reviewing over 25 scripts of plays and musicals and would like to expand our roster of directors.
Footlight is a completely volunteer organization and is planning on a 5 production season during the months of September and November of 2020 and, February, April and June of 2021.
Some of the titles we are considering are AUGUST, OSAGE COUNTY/CHICAGO/4 OLD BROADS/GREASE/AN INSPECTOR CALLS/INTO THE WOODS/KING AND I/LAURA/MUSIC-MAN/WAIT UNTIL DARK.

Please include your name, address, phone numbers, which months you’d be available, shows that you might like to direct (from the list above, or a suggestion of your own), and any past history of theatrical experiences.
