Stagecrafters has announced the 2022-2023 season featuring a wide array of fabulous productions.

The new season starts in July with Stagecrafters Youth Theatre's production of Frozen Jr. based on the Pixar hit movie in 2013. Stagecrafters Youth Theatre will be performed by actors ages 8-18.

Stagecrafters is excited to be back in full swing with a great slate of productions performed on the Main Stage. There is something for everyone in this season and Stagecrafters welcome patrons back with open arms. The 2022-2023 season theme is "from screen to stage" as all shows on Main Stage and Youth Theatre have a movie equivalent in addition to live stage performances.

The Stagecrafters 2nd Stage will be taking a year off to focus on preparing for a renovation of the black box theatre that patrons love. Patrons of 2nd Stage will still have a way to connect with 2nd Stage with the Stagecrafters Fringe Festival.

"We needed to think outside of the box for 2nd Stage this season, so we are outside Stagecrafters, Baldwin Theatre, on the Fringe. Four diverse shows with close to 30 diverse performers. Keeping 2nd Stage, alive and well. Join us," says Executive Producer David Sigler.

The Stagecrafters Fringe Festival will be performing at two different venues including Affirmations in Ferndale and Five15 in downtown Royal Oak.
