Hello everyone! Please be aware that auditions for Christmas Carol are tonight and tomorrow (October 18-19) beginning at 6:30 pm at the Wayne County Museum in Downtown Goldsboro instead of Wayne Community College. WCC is closed until Thursday due to the aftermath of Hurricane Matthew, so we look forward to seeing you at the Wayne County Museum instead.

We want to let you know that our performance of Sylvia has been postponed indefinitely. We will be talking with the cast, crew, and our patrons to try and find another date in the season for when we will be able to perform this show, and we will let you know as soon as that information becomes available.

At the moment, no decision has been made to further delay auditions for Christmas Carol, but we will let you know as soon as there is more information.

The safety of our performers and supporters is of utmost importance to us. We hope everyone continues to be safe following Hurricane Matthew.

Due to the severe conditions following Hurricane Matthew, our scheduled membership meeting will no longer be held tomorrow, October 10, but will be held on October 17 instead.

Also, auditions for A Christmas Carol have also been pushed back a week from October 11-12 to October 18-19.

As previously stated, today’s performance of Sylvia has been cancelled and rescheduled for next weekend, October 14-15.

Due to the threat of severe weather and flooding from Hurricane Matthew, tonight and tomorrow’s performances of Sylvia will be cancelled. We are planning to reschedule them for next Friday and Saturday (October 14-15). If you had tickets for tonight or tomorrow, we will honor them at those performances. We appreciate your understanding, and we take pride in insuring the safety of our performers and our patrons. Please stay safe and we hope to see you tomorrow at the show.

Hi everyone! We wanted to let you know about an upcoming audition opportunity for the Wayne Summer Literacy Theatre! This is a collaboration of Center Stage Theatre and the Wayne County Public Library. Auditions are for children ages 8-12 and will be held this Friday, July 8th, at 3 pm at the Weil Auditorium in the Goldsboro Library (located on Ash Street).The performance of this program will be on Friday, July 29th, at the Parks and Recreation Auditorium at 903 E Ash Street, Goldsboro! Rehearsals will be held Mondays from 6-8pm, Wednesday’s (7/13 & 7/27, 12-2p and 7/20, 6-8pm), and Friday’s 4-6pm.
In collaboration with Center Stage, the library will serve as the location for this new summer event. Children will read and rehearse a short play as well as be introduced to theatre technique. The intent is to encourage children to read during the summer and to give them an opportunity to participate in a theatrical production. The props, set, and costumes will be very simple. There is no cost for children to participate. All parents are asked to remain on the library grounds and are welcome to observe the activity. For more information, email waynebookslive@gmail.com.
We hope to see some talented young people at auditions, and we hope to see all of you at the performance!
