Spotlight Community Theatre

Aumsville Community Theatre is now doing business as Spotlight Community Theatre . We provide a live theatre experience for Stayton, Aumsville, Sublimity, and the surrounding areas. We work hard to support a community of creative people who love to participate in the joy of live theatre (stage plays, murder mysteries, and staged radio shows) as actors, crew, and audience. We involve all ages; in the past few years, we had cast members ranging from 6 to 85 years old. In a time when the arts are struggling, we feel it is important to continue to provide this much-needed service to our community. Productions Spotlight Community Theatre usually has three main stage productions throughout the year. A Spotlight main stage production consists of straight plays and musicals (comedy, drama, children’s) produced from a written book or script. The main stage production consists of planning, rehearsal, and presentation to a live or virtual audience. Straight Plays Spotlight Community Theatre usually has four main stage productions throughout the year. Each season we present either a straight play or a musical. A straight play is a piece of theatre that relies on spoken dialogue and stage action. These productions require dedicated actors, stagehands, directors, and many others to create a beautiful piece of art the community can enjoy. Each straight play takes approximately eight weeks to rehearse and 2-3 weekends to perform. Musicals Spotlight Community Theatre usually has three main stage productions throughout the year. Each season we present either a straight play or a musical. A musical is a piece of theatre that relies on spoken dialogue, singing, dancing, and stage action to explain the story and move the play along. These productions require dedicated actors, stagehands, directors, and many others to create a beautiful piece of art the community can enjoy. Each musical takes approximately 10-12 weeks to rehearse and 2-3 weekends to perform. Act on Radio - Staged Radio D
