Lincoln Community Theater returns this summer with two productions

[March 02, 2016]   LINCOLN - After a highly successful 2015 benefit production, Lincoln Community Theatre is looking for personnel to man each of two musicals it will produce this summer: Bye, Bye, Birdie and I Love You, You’re Perfect, Now Change.

The LCT Board will hold interviews for the positions of Artistic Director, Technical Director, and Musical Accompanist for both shows on March 6

LCT board policy is to schedule a six-week rehearsal period plus one week of technical preparation in the theatre prior to the performance.

Kicking off the season this summer will be a rocking and rolling production of Bye, Bye, Birdie. First produced in 1963, this classic musical has been updated with new songs and dialogue that were written especially for its 1995 television production. With roles for all ages, including a crazy teenage crowd, this is a family show that will leave all humming a happy tune in toe-tapping good humor. The show will run June 3, 4, 5 and June 10, 11, 12.

The second musical of the summer will be I Love You, You’re Perfect, Now Change, which will run June 30, and July 1, 2, and 3. This show will appeal to anyone who has ever wanted to be in a relationship, been in a relationship, or wished they could get out of a relationship. It explores those feelings most adults have experienced “Does he/she like me?” “How happy we are!” “How did we end up in this mess?” Best of all, it does so with a great big underscore on the humorous side and will be a wonderful vehicle to showcase the talents of two to four men and women.

Coming soon will be information concerning casting auditions which will be held in early April.
