For the weekend - Louisville and Southern Indiana theatre shows and auditions (Aug. 6, 2021 edition)

Wait, it's already back to school season???? How is that possible??? Well, Improv Anonymous seems to be asking that same question, too. Check out their improv antics tomorrow night at The Bard's Town.

I could have sworn, though, it was still the middle of summer! Which makes sense considering KY Shakespeare and Globe Players are performing the Shakespearean comedy A Midsummer Night's Dream in Central Park this weekend. Check out the free show this weekend.

Also, don't forget about the Louisville Fringe Festival, featuring quite a few theatrical works, going on this weekend. 

Derby Dinner and Stephen Foster return this weekend with the classics Grease and The Stephen Foster Story. Each show's run is getting shorter, so check them out before its too late.

Want to audition for a Kentuckiana show or touring group. Several groups are holding auditions soon, including two this weekend. Check them out, and get involved into the theatre scene below.
