Rehearsals begin in April, and the show will incorporate song, storytelling, drama and music with accompaniment from the On Common Ground orchestra — also looking for musicians of all styles for initial rehearsals April 14-18 then weekly rehearsals from Monday April 28.

If you’re too shy to tread the boards then there are also opportunities behind the scenes, and even gardening at the performance space — the Citz is also on the hunt for a photographer or filmmaker to document the event.
