A busy weekend of auditions at the Opera House has resulted in a promising cast for our upcoming production of Fiddler On The Roof! Thank you to all who auditioned. You made the task of assigning parts a difficult one! We are sorry that we couldn't use everyone who auditioned but encourage all to audition for future productions!

Our first read through will be tomorrow evening (Monday, April 20th) at 6:00. Looking forward to working with this cast and excited to have some "newbies" to the Opera House stage for this show!

Don't forget to spread the word that auditions for Fiddler On The Roof are next weekend! We will have to be done Saturday by 4:00 because the Hickory Ridge Concert Series will be setting up from that point on for an excellent show!
(Even if you're not auditioning , you won't want to miss the concert at 7:00! Great entertainment, homemade desserts and cabaret seating!)
But we really want to see new talent join us at the Opera House. The Opera House stage is intimate and magical. Once you perform there, you're hooked! We look forward to seeing you this coming weekend!

PLEASE NOTE:
We've had to change the performance dates for Fiddler On The Roof (see the poster). Please help us spread the word that we're holding auditions the weekend of April 18.

We love seeing how theater brings people together and performers become life-long friends. This show offers lots of roles; big and small. So, there's something for everyone of most every age! If you like to sing, act, dance, costume design, sound and lighting design or stage management, we'd love to have you check us out! See the poster below for more information.

The Heritage Singers and Friends have worked so hard to prepare our annual Holiday Concert, but we have no control over the weather! Just know we are still planning on have our concert on Sunday, November 30th at 4:00 p.m. The Fairview Reformed Church will be warm and filled with beautiful music as long as it's safe to do so. You might need to pull out your winter boots and mittens, but it will be worth it, I promise! Please check here, and/or the Spoon River Rascals FB page for an announcement either way by 2:30 tomorrow. In the mean time... get that loaf of bread and gallon of milk! ;c)
