Making Theater Accessible on Both Sides of the Curtain

We are excited to announce our next show “Into the Woods”

Auditions for Into the Woods will be held November 4 through 7, 2019. Audition registration will be available starting in late August – check back then. We will send out an announcement at that time – sign up for our mailing list (on the right) to be notified.

The production dates will be March 27-29, and April 3-5, 2020, and will include ASL, Audio Description, and Sensory Friendly/relaxed performances.

Open Door Theater values and includes people of all nationalities, socioeconomic backgrounds, abilities, races, genders, religions, and sexual orientations in everything we do on stage and off. We welcome the unique insights, perspectives and feedback of all our participants to fulfill our mission and believe that the more diverse our community, the more learning opportunities created. Please let us know if you require an ASL interpreter or other assistance when signing up to audition.
