Adults interested in acting and available for daytime rehearsals during the week are invited to audition on Saturday, March 5 at 10 am at the theatre, 229 S. Washington Street, Hendersonville. Auditions will consist of cold readings from various potential scripts to be produced as a public performance on April 1-3. No experience is necessary.

Act2 Players is also seeking adults with directing experience, available for daytime rehearsals. If you are an interested director, send your directing resume to

Health and safety is a priority to HT, and all participants in Act2 Players and theatre staff must be vaccinated. During auditions, HT is limiting the number of people inside the theatre. After arrival and check-in, actors may be asked to wait in their vehicle or outside. Mask-wearing is required in the theatre.
In April, selected plays will be performed on-book with limited staging. The proposed time commitment will be 3 weeks, allowing for several directed rehearsals and 2-3 performances.
Reader’s theatre is a legitimate form of drama with actors using their voices and upper bodies to convey various roles in a script through reading to an audience. It differs from a play in that parts or roles are read rather than memorized. Actors usually stand or sit behind lecterns or music stands and use techniques such as vocal and facial expressions, as well as hand and arm movements. Small hand props may be used as well.
Since 1966, Hendersonville Theatre has provided an inviting and nurturing environment for live theatre, as well as high-quality, affordable entertainment for the residents of Hendersonville and surrounding areas.Hendersonville Theatre is located at 229 South Washington Street.
