The Hastings College Theatre Department is pleased to announce its Summerstage 2015 production – “The Old Nebraska Home or Dirty Deeds on The Little Blue.” The production is described as an old-fashioned melodrama.
If you are interested in auditioning or working on the show, please contact Jim Fritzler, Professor of Theatre, at jfritzler@hastings.edu by April 1. Rehearsals will begin May 17 and take place on evenings and weekends.
The performances are scheduled for June 12-13 at 7:30 p.m.; June 14 at 2:00 p.m.; and June 21 at 2:00 p.m. – all in Scott Studio Theatre – (806 N. Turner Ave.) Ticket information will be released at a later date.
This is the third year that Hastings College will host the Summerstage program. It is designed to allow local students the opportunity to participate in additional theater experiences without having the expense of travel and enrollment in a college program. Several students may also receive paid positions creating set pieces, working backstage and acting.
Fritzler also began the program in an effort to involve the Hastings community during the summer months in a way that is difficult to arrange during the school year. Members of the community are invited to audition and take part in the production alongside current and recently-graduated college students.
