Final performances will be Friday, April 13 at 5:00pm, Saturday, April 14 at 11:00am AND Sunday, April 15 at 6:30pm. Actors must commit to rehearsals, all 3 performances, and after-school rehearsals during the week before the show, 4/9, 4/10, 4/11 and 4/12. If your family cannot commit to this schedule, please consider our summer theater camps, or Fall 2018 PUPS, which auditions in September of 2018.

PUPS is an experimental theater program that is actor-centered. The Director will decide after auditions are complete if an actor is ready for the challenges of musical theater...songs, dances and lines! If the Director decides that the actor should wait another season before auditioning again, a full refund will be given within a week of the notification. Actors selected for the program will have a role in final production to be held at Northville's Tipping Point Theatre. Weekly Sunday "rehearsals" are at The Plymouth Community Arts Council and include theater workshop-style instruction, team building and role-development exercises. Each actor will receive 2 free tickets to the final performances. Additional tickets will be available for purchase for $10 each.

TUITION! Our program registration is $225 with a current PCAC Student $30 Membership, good for one year (2 PUPS seasons plus all of our summer camp programs!) Tuition includes 2 free tickets per actor for one of our performances. *There are no extra costume fees. Parent participation is welcome during tech week and final performances, but always optional and not a requirement for this program.
