🪂 GBCT will be hosting auditions for our second mainstage production of our 2026-2027 season, "Ripcord" by David Lindsay-Abaire, on Monday, October 5 and Tuesday, October 6 from 6:30-8:30pm at the Robert Lee Brault Playhouse in the Community Room.🥊 SYNOPSIS:
Abby is enjoying her prime spot, a top floor sunny room, in a senior living facility, when her chipper new roommate Marilyn arrives. This creates a classic odd couple clash of personalities, sparking a game of one-upmanship to become the sole inhabitant.
What begins as a seemingly innocent bet soon escalates into an epic battle. As the competition gets more dangerous physically and emotionally, they unearth feelings and memories they never expected to come to light. (Comedy, Morality, Irreverent)
