Fauquier Community Theatre (FCT) proudly announces open auditions for the Tony-nominated musical Bright Star! This soul-stirring production, inspired by true events and featuring a breathtaking bluegrass score by Steve Martin and Edie Brickell, is now casting performers ages 16 and up.
Set in the 1920s and 1940s American South, Bright Star tells a powerful story of love, loss, and redemption. At the heart of the narrative is Alice Murphy, a brilliant literary editor whose chance meeting with a young soldier returning from World War II unearths a hidden chapter from her past. The musical weaves a deeply emotional journey through spirited music and heartfelt storytelling.
🎭 Directed by Scott Olson and produced by Maggie Swan, this production invites passionate performers to bring to life one of the most touching stories in modern musical theatre.
