For the weekend - Louisville and Southern Indiana theatre shows and auditions (July 9, 2021 edition)

Long time, no see, Kentuckiana! Needless to say, this past year has been a difficult one, and, in a way, we're still going through it. However, there are signs of a return to some kind of normal. That includes the reopening of theatre in and around Louisville and Southern Indiana. Below are a couple of shows that are currently taking place. Check them out at the links below. 

Also, quite a few theatre companies are returning in the fall, and in preparation, those groups are holding auditions or accepting submissions. Check out those links below.

Last, but certainly not least, if you have a show or audition coming up, let me know so I can post it here. The email for this blog is loubriantheater@gmail.com .
