Upcoming auditions, My Big Gay Italian Wedding, and more!

Hello from Theatre Guild of Simsbury!
It’s an exciting time here at TGS! With one show going into its second weekend of a successful run, and another round of auditions coming at us fast, there is a lot going on in the Simsbury performing arts community.

In Performance: “My Big Gay Italian Wedding”

Our spring play, “My Big Gay Italian Wedding”, is preparing to enter its second weekend of performances. The show is getting rave reviews from audience members! We are so proud of this production, and the talented cast and crew that make it happen. The dinner theater cabaret-style seating makes for a fun and unique atmosphere, and we love seeing our audience bring all kinds of delicious food and drink to enjoy at their tables. We are also proudly offering pizza sold by the slice from Simsbury’s own Fresh Mozzarella Pizza, which has been a huge hit!

Closing weekend will have evening shows on Friday, March 28 and Saturday, March 29 at 6:30, and then one final matinee at 1:00 on Sunday, March 30. There is still limited availability for this weekend, but be sure you get your tickets now! https://www.theatreguildsimsbury.org/tickets
