Broadway’s BRIGHT STAR tells a sweeping tale of love and redemption set against the rich backdrop of the American South in the 1920s and ’40s. When literary editor Alice Murphy meets a young soldier just home from World War II, he awakens her longing for the child she once lost. Haunted by their unique connection, Alice sets out on a journey to understand her past – and what she finds has the power to transform both of their lives. The story unfolds as a rich tapestry of deep emotion, beautiful melodies and powerfully moving performances. An uplifting theatrical journey that holds you tight in its grasp, BRIGHT STAR is as refreshingly genuine as it is daringly hopeful.

This is a High School age production- Those who graduate in 2023, 2024, 2025, and 2026 are welcome with any or no theater experience. Those in the class of 2026 will need to have had theater experience and will be asked to state their experience and provide a teacher's/director's name and email as a reference in order to participate in this show. Zig Prep works at a very quick pace.
If this is the actor's first time doing theater, we instead ask to consider signing up for our Spring production of Mary Poppins Jr!
