Prairie Players Civic Theatre is excited to announce A Night of One Acts, an evening of short plays to be presented on Saturday, September 19. Auditions for actors will be held on Sunday, August 16, at 2:00 P.M. and Monday, August 17, at 6:00 P.M. at 160 South Seminary Street in Galesburg. This will be followed by a four-week rehearsal period leading up to the performance.
A Night of One Acts is designed to be an accessible entry point for those curious about theatre, while also providing a welcoming path back for veteran participants. With a shorter rehearsal process and simplified production elements, this format allows for creativity without a large time commitment.
We're delighted to share that the two shows that are being staged this year are: Wishing Well, written and directed by Charlie Vestal, and The Monkey's Paw, based on the classic short story by W. W. Jacobs and directed by Adam Chasteen.

Vestal is looking for actors who can play 30 years or younger, and Chasteen is looking for actors to play 20 years and older.
Both directors ask that those who are auditioning be at least 18 years old.

A Night of One Acts is sponsored by NextUp Transition Curriculum and The Illinois Arts Council. For more information, go to prairieplayers.com.
