For the weekend - Louisville theatre shows and auditions (Sept. 27 edition)

It's supposed to be fall, right?!? My allergies say it is, but why is the heat still here? It's definitely a good idea, then, to go inside and enjoy a Louisville-area theatre show! Five of them are opening this week, including classics, murder mystery, improv, and much in between. This goes along with the great variety of shows already taking place in the Louisville theatre scene. Check out all the shows below.

Don't forget about the upcoming auditions. There may be only two (for now), but both are happening in the next couple of days. Get involved in the Louisville theatre scene through one of the shows below.

Enjoy!
