Auditions Announced for the Musical Bright Star in Warrenton, VA
Fauquier Community Theatre invites performers ages 16 and up to audition for Bright Star, a heartwarming and powerful musical inspired by true events. Auditions will be held on June 26 and 27, 2025, in Warrenton, Virginia.
Set against the backdrop of the American South in the 1920s and 1940s, Bright Star features an uplifting story of love, loss, and redemption, with a stunning Tony-nominated bluegrass score by Steve Martin and Edie Brickell. The story centers on Alice Murphy, a literary editor whose encounter with a young soldier returning from World War II stirs memories of a life-altering secret from her past. Her emotional journey unfolds through moving music, heartfelt storytelling, and a rich cast of characters.
