CWC Theater Audition Call: The Signal Season of Dummy Hoy - Tuesday, August 26

Our first auditions for the 2025-2026 theatrical season are on Tuesday August 26, 2025 from 6 pm - 9 pm in the Robert A Peck Arts Center (not sure if we are in the dance studio or the conference room but, auditions will be on Tuesday!
We will be producing the play, "The Signal Season of Dummy Hoy" This show is one of my favorites. Over a year ago a student in Theatrical Backgrounds Drama II did a dramaturgy project on this show and it blew my mind. I asked this student if they would like to direct it one day and they responded in the affirmative so this Fall Madeline Dike will be directing this work. Sarah Dike will be our ASL consultant, and I will be helping to produce it. Ladies and Gentlemen we are having a student directed production at Central Wyoming College...I'm so excited to announce that.

What is this play about, here is some more information: In 1886 William Ellsworth "Dummy" Hoy was the first deaf baseball player to join a minor league baseball team. With a no-nonsense manager, players with colorful personalities, and a curious reporter, Dummy struggles to communicate with those around him. After being recruited to a team in Oshkosh, Wisconsin, he quickly became one of the best hitters on the team; however he faced communication issues due to the language barrier. As a bilingual production the Signal Season of Dummy Hoy will be performed in both English and American Sign Language. This play tackles difficult subjects such as communication and ableism in a different era. I hope you all come and audition. It's going to be a spectacular show!

Auditions are on Tuesday, August 26, 2025 from 6 pm - 9 pm
Rehearsals will run August 27, 2025 - September 24, 2025 and performances will be September 25, 26, 27, and 28 in the CWC Student Center Little Theatre.

Tickets will be on sale at https://www.cwc.edu/tickets/riverton/
