For the weekend - Louisville shows and auditions (Nov. 25 edition)

Happy Thanksgiving! Yeah, I know it's one day later, but I still everyone's Thanksgiving was good and thankful! As we gobble up the leftovers (Yeah, I had to go there!) and battled Black Friday traffic and shoppers, let's turn to the Christmas season, especially in the Louisville theatre scene. This weekend, Actors Theatre returns the classic A Christmas Carol to the stage. Jeffersonville High School, meanwhile, takes over the Bomhard Theater for Bring it On: The Musical. Check out both of these shows during the weekend.

Don't forget about the shows already going on, including holiday-themed shows. Check them out below!

Also, don't forget about the auditions, including three that are newly listed. This includes season auditions for KY Shakespeare. Get involved in the Louisville theatre scene below.

Enjoy!,
