MASH requires 10 males and 10 females ages 20--40 and also some older male and females 40--60. Actors of Korean or Asian heritage are essential to this production, specifically 2 older men or women, 2 young boys or girls 8--14, and one young man 18--20.

This comedy follows a group of Army surgeons in the Mobile Army Surgical Hospital---MASH---as they treat the injured during the Korean Conflict. The play differs from both the movie and the popular television program---but still depicts the stress, triumphs, and challenges faced during this 1950's conflict.

Rehearsals will begin on Sept. 25
