Henderson Community Theatre will hold auditions at 6:30 p.m. on Monday and Tuesday, January 25 and 26, at the Henderson Fine Arts Center for the spring production, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead.  In this Tony award-winning tragicomedy, playwright Tom Stoppard presents a very modern re-interpretation of Shakespeare’s Hamlet. Director Sharon Burton will cast 12 men and 2 women for this production.  Roles include Rosencrantz and Guildenstern, a troupe of six players, Hamlet, Claudius, Polonius, Horatio, Gertrude, and Ophelia. 

Although auditioners are welcome to attend both nights of auditions, only once is necessary.  The cast will rehearse on Monday and Thursday evenings with performances on March 26 and 27.  For additional information, call Sharon Burton at 270-831-9646 or email her at sharon.burton@kctcs.edu.

The spring of 2000 saw the arrival of a new group in Henderson--Community Theatre. Offered as a Community Education class, the theatre group involved everyone who wanted to be involved, whether through acting, constructing sets, working props, stage managing, or advertising.

All this work culminated in two performances in the Henderson Fine Arts Center. HCT, now considered to be the resident acting troupe of the Henderson Fine Arts Center, continues to involve HCC students and other members of the community in two productions each year.
