How It Works
8 weeks of instruction-based rehearsal!
Ensemble actors rehearse for 60-90 minutes on Saturdays. Leads attend additional rehearsals on Monday/Wednesday evenings for 120 minutes or less. These weekly rehearsals combine professional level training in acting, singing, dance, improv, costuming, stage make up, and more with blocking and choreography for our show - all from actively working industry professionals!
Rehearsals and Performances
Everyone has ensemble rehearsal on Saturdays. Lead rehearsals are Monday and Wednesday evenings and will be specified after casting. Those who are interested in a lead role (speaking role) are encouraged to attend our audition prep rehearsals on Monday and Wednesday evenings leading up to audition day. As we get closer to our performances, rehearsals will become longer and more frequent. Tech week is the week before opening weekend and includes nightly rehearsals every day of the week leading up to opening night. Performances are tentatively and loosely scheduled for the end of July, 2025. Please check back in early 2025 for the updated Production Calendar (link below) for more details.
No skills required!
Theatre is the ultimate supplemental support for academics, socialization, and building essential life skills. Through the process of putting together a musical, you and/or your child will develop and enhance their skills in reading, math, communication, movement, social-emotional learning, independence, team work, coping mechanisms, creative problem solving, leadership, organization, and time management - no matter what the starting level.
Volunteering
Star Equality Theatricals relies heavily on the support of our volunteers to create and mount the best possible productions we can offer. Families are strongly encouraged to donate their time and talents to our remarkable teams of volunteers and share in a unique and irreplaceable experience with your actor(s).

Our costumes are designed and created by our artistic director and team of volunteers. Skills in arts and crafts, hand stitching, machine sewing, fabric painting, appliques, fashion design, and the like are put to excellent use here! Costume work is primarily done during Saturday ensemble rehearsals and at lead rehearsals when volunteers are available.
