The Showboat Majestic Will hold Auditions for a Pulitzer Prize-winning comedic play You Can't Take It With You
2009 provided me with the opportunity to review 126 of the more than 200 shows that were available in the St. Louis region, and it began in terrific fashion with New Line Theatre's NIGHT OF THE LIVING SHOW TUNES.
