Owen is an amazing theater volunteer and student. He’s decided (or his dad has) to raise money for United Way Merced and go over the edge of the Tioga apartments on August 15th. Let’s support Owen and his craziness and, if he raises enough, his dad has to go over too!

We are so thankful for everyone that has participated in any of our wackiness over the last year! We look forward to sharing even more crazy stuff we are thinking about in the next few weeks. Get ready for Year 3? Year 4? We don’t know, we’re just a baby bird.

This was such an incredibly difficult decision. We want to thank everyone that auditioned, turned in tapes, and even showed interest.

As to the cast, congratulations and we will send word about next steps on Monday.

We are looking forward to working with Playhouse Merced to get Come From Away up and in the air for August.
