Performing at the Playhouse

Each year, the Forestburgh Playhouse presents professional musicals, plays, theatre for young audiences, cabaret, Broadway concerts, staged readings of new theatrical works and more.  The Playhouse casts members of the Actors’ Equity Association in individual mainstage productions, a Resident Company to perform in mainstage productions, TYA shows and cabarets, as well as Non-Equity job-in actors. The Playhouse also holds local auditions for talented artists of all ages from the surrounding region.

"Never meddle with actors, for they are a favored class... Remember that, as they are merry folk who give pleasure, everyone favors and protects them."
