Daina Giesler of Lisle will direct a cast of 20 to 24 actors for the production, which rehearses Saturday mornings and will be performed Nov. 1 to 23. Specifics are on the Web site at www.SteelBeamTheatre.com.

No audition preparation is needed, and readings will be from the script. No appointments are taken, with children seen in the order they sign in.

This is a tuition-based program, with scholarships available to families in need. Tuition, if cast, includes script, T-shirt, costume and two tickets, and costs $250. Call the theater at (630) 587-8521 for more information.

The children’s programming at Steel Beam Theatre, a nonprofit organization, is sponsored in part by Target and a grant  from the Pedersen Family Foundation to provide quality theatrical training and entertainment to the children and families of the Fox Valley and surrounding areas.
