Grimm
Run: October 10 - November 3, 2024 (all roles available) In our 4th installment of a TAtL original, one of the brothers Grimm has gone missing, lost to the Wolf from Little Red Riding Hood. To reunite with Wilhelm, his brother Jakob has followed the breadcrumb trail to a cabaret bar, where he is forced to live through the many stories they collected to find the wolf.
An annual production at TAtL, this year our telling features classics such as Cinderella and The Pied Piper of Hamelin, alongside some surprises. Callbacks early August 2024
Rehearsals begin August 24, 2024
The Pyg Hypothesis (all roles available)
Run: February 7 - March 9, 2025
In this World Premiere adaptation of the Shaw classic Pygmalion, naively misogynistic Elijah finds himself in the middle of a philosophical quandary at the hands of Dr. Harriet Higgins and Professor Quinn Pickering. The hypothesis:
A person can change their nature only once they are willing to change their manners. Vowing to reform the sheltered man's views in just a month, however, brings to light the flaws in Higgins' own nature. If she refuses to change her straight-laced manners, she risks her relationships, family structure, and, ultimately, her way of life.
Callbacks October 2024
Rehearsals begin late November/early December 2024
Matt & Ben (seeking only teen cast)
Run: May 2-25, 2025
Written by Mindy Kaling, Matt & Ben depicts its Hollywood golden boys - before J-Lo, before Gwyneth, before Project Greenlight, before Oscar... before anyone actually gave a damn.
When the screenplay for Good Will Hunting drops mysteriously from the heavens, the boys realize they're being tested by a Higher Power.
Callbacks December 2024
Rehearsals begin March 2025
All in person auditions, callbacks, rehearsals, and performances are held at The Jarvis Square Theater 1439 W. Jarvis.
