Lincoln Community Theatre
announces auditions for Rumors and Into the Woods
[March 03, 2026]
Lincoln Community Theatre is
pleased to invite all who are interested to audition for LCT’s 2026
summer season. Auditions for Neil Simon’s stage play Rumors and
Stephen Sondheim’s musical Into the Woods will be held together on
March 20 from 5 to 8 p.m. and March 21 from 9 a.m. to 1.p.m. at St.
John United Church of Christ, 204 7th Street, in Lincoln.
Rumors will be directed by LCT Board President Lauren DeJarnette and
presented June 18-21 at the Lincoln Community High School
auditorium. Adults age 25 and up are welcome to audition for this
comedy production. Rumors is a fast-paced 1988 farce by Neil Simon
focusing on four couples arriving at a New York deputy mayor's 10th
anniversary party to find the host shot, the hostess missing, and no
servants. The guests descend into chaos, crafting increasingly
absurd lies to avoid scandal.
Ann Wolpert will direct Sondheim’s beloved musical Into the Woods on
July 23-26. Youth and adults are welcome to audition. Into the Woods
is a Tony-winning musical that intertwines classic Brothers Grimm
fairy tales—Cinderella, Little Red Riding Hood, Jack and the
Beanstalk, and Rapunzel—centered around a childless baker and his
wife. Seeking to reverse a witch's curse, they journey into the
woods, where they discover that "happily ever after" has dire
consequences.
