Getting ready for callbacks for "A Chorus Line" at Village Players

Last week I held auditions for "A Chorus Line" at Village Players in Forest Park, IL where I am directing and choreographing the production. I am pretty excited as we had some really talented people who turned out for these auditions. Callbacks are slated for December 14th 6-10pm. We should have the cast posted by Wednesday of that week!
