Get your kicks on Route 66! America’s most famous highway is the backdrop for this sweet comedy set in an Arizona diner in 1955.
Sally, a young, celebrity-obsessed waitress, can’t wait for the wedding that day between glamorous movie star Lovey Lamour and crooner Johnny Jerome. So you can imagine Sally’s surprise when a mysterious customer turns out to be Lovey herself! Lovey tells Sally that she fled the ceremony and was heading east on Route 66 when her Ferrari broke down. With the press hot on her trail, Lovey is forced to hide out at the diner until her car is fixed. But how can she possibly keep her identity a secret? Simple, Sally answers. Pose as a waitress! Sally teaches the movie star everything she knows about waitressing, but their entire scheme threatens to unravel when a nosy news photographer discovers Lovey’s identity and tips Johnny off as to her location. With a cast of hilarious characters including a short-tempered cook, Sally’s geeky boyfriend, an ever-hungry customer, the world’s worst auto mechanic, and even Elvis Presley before he was famous, this affectionate tribute to the golden age of diners is guaranteed to warm your heart as it tickles your funny bone.

FAQsmay i audition if i am 'almost' old enough?
You must be the appropriate age to participate in the production on or before the performance dates. Ages for ACTors in the Main Season are 8-19. Ages for ACTors in ACT sr are 13-19.
How can I prepare for Auditions?
Actors can prepare by being familiar with the characters from the production. Actors will be asked to portray these characters in a scene from the play or act out certain situations and/or emotions from the play. If the production is a musical, the director will request each actor to sing a song of their choosing. Individual songs are sometimes available for purchase from iTunes. If possible, please purchase & bring your chosen song both with and without vocals. During the actual auditions, we encourage actors to display confidence, to follow directions given by the director, and to have fun!!
What paperwork do I need to fill out to Audition?
Audition applications are filled out online either before the date of auditions or day of 30 minutes before. Please arrive early if you need to fill out an application. We will have Area Children's Theatre Volunteers ready to help.
What is the Audition process like?
We will begin as close to 4 o'clock as possible. We will play some games, read through some of the script dramatically and have fun!
