SSMT is seeking local youth for FIDDLER ON THE ROOF and THE WIZARD OF OZ!
Children interested in auditioning must be comfortable being away from their parents, work well with adults and other youth, and be good at following directions. Rehearsals are typically 9-5 (lunch break 12:30-1:30) until tech week when they run in the afternoons and evenings.
