Late Shift is a play in two acts that takes place during the end of the millennium, just when the “Y2K” panic was consuming so many people’s attention. The main characters are two siblings in their early twenties and their mother, who has recently been widowed. The siblings are working odd jobs to help support the family, and it is at one of these jobs as a telemarketer that one of them meets Russell, a semi-retired army veteran, who ends up spending New Year’s Eve with the family as they all wait to see what’s going to happen when the clock strikes midnight.

30 by Ninety Theatre presents: The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas

June 13, 19, 20, 26, 27 || 8:00 PM
June 14, 21, 28 || 2:30 PM

Based on a true story, The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas is a bold, hilarious, and surprisingly heartfelt musical blending country, gospel, and Broadway styles. Many audiences recognize the story from the hit 1982 film adaptation starring Dolly Parton, Burt Reynolds, and Dom DeLuise. Set in a small Texas town, the show centers on the legendary Chicken Ranch and the clash between tradition, politics, morality, and community. With big ensemble numbers, sharp satire, and unexpected warmth, this musical is both outrageous and deeply human.

• Prepare up to 1 minute and 30 seconds of a song in one of the genres represented in the show: country, folk, Americana, pop/rock, gospel, R&B, blues, novelty/variety acts, etc. Non-musical theater songs preferred.
• Bring a backing track on bluetooth compatible device
• Be prepared for a movement or dance component
• Some performers may be asked to read from the script

ADDITIONAL CASTING NOTES
