As Theatre 29 closes out its 2023-24 season with “Clue: On Stage” August 16, they are already busy getting ready for their just announced 2024-25 season.

Theatre 29 will present “The Legend of Sleepy Hollow” as the debut offering of their 2024-25 season from October 11 to 27, 2024. In the quaint village of Sleepy Hollow, stories of wonder and strangeness surround the legend of a mighty headless Hessian. When the humble schoolteacher Ichabod Crane vies for the hand of the beautiful Katrina Van Tassel, the townsfolk might protest, but it is ultimately the Horseman who will decide Ichabod’s fate.

Auditions for this full-length Halloween classic adapted by Hans Bloedel and Peter Bloedel from the classic tale by Washington Irving, will be held at Theatre 29 on August 19 at 6:30PM.

Director Eric Ross is looking to cast 15 to 25 men and women aged 16+ with the possibility of doubling some roles.

A complete breakdown of the characters can be found on the Theatre 29 website at theatre29.org/auditions
