The world-famous Pageant of the Masters will host its annual Open Casting Call from January 9–11, 2026 on the Festival of Arts grounds in Laguna Beach. Participants can sign up for both on-stage and backstage roles for the upcoming 2026 Pageant production, "The Greatest of All Time," which will run July 9 - September 4, 2026.
